Why cubbies matter
A cubby lets a defender wait off the obvious angles and shoot attackers in the back once they walk past. Clearing cubbies one by one is a big part of taking a site safely.
Calling a cubby
Because several maps have more than one, a cubby is usually called with its area: "A Cubby" on Bind, "C Cubby" on Haven, "B Cubby" on Icebox.
