Around it

Callouts near Mid Connector

• Defender Side WaterThe water route between Defender Spawn and Mid that also gives access toward both sites, so attackers can rotate through it for a surprise push onto B.
• Mid DoorsThe door entrance on the mid side that A Main and A Link can be walled off from, making it the common setup point for blocking the A entry.
• A RestaurantAn area close to A Site and A Main that attackers use as a staging point before committing to the site.
• A LinkThe stair-up entry on A that opens into the site once Art is cleared, so its top is a standard smoke target when pushing.
• A MainThe main entrance onto A Site, which attackers move through with a push and defenders watch for flanks, and which is often walled off from Mid Doors.
• A ArtA walled-in gallery area between Mid Plaza and A Link whose only entrance from mid is through Mid Top, so players call it when the attackers are taking the flank toward A.

Pearl Mid tips

1. 01Get an early presence on Mid Plaza, because whoever holds it controls the rotation paths to both sites.
2. 02Take Mid Top early, since it is the only way into Art and blocking it stops the flank before it starts.
3. 03Use Mid Connector and Mid Doors as wall-smoke origins to cut sightlines onto B Screen and A Main from a distance.
