Second Round: S.W.A.T.

Why is it called S.W.A.T.? You’ll see shortly. This is a tactic I saw the old Rival team do a couple CPLs ago and it is a great eco round tactic if you are aiming to pick up some guns.

-All players buy an HE grenade.
-One player is going to boost the other four players up to catwalk.
-The first one up is going to peek the catwalk corner.



-The other three should be behind him at an angle with their HE grenades ready to throw it as soon as he fires a bullet at an enemy. *NOTE* Try not to shoot unless somebody is there.
-The player that boosted the other four will go long A. If a team is smart, they will spot the middle and look for a B stack, so when they don’t see anyone cross they will go B. There are some teams out there that don’t find a need to spot the middle, so you might meet up with a player or two at long A. Just make sure you can call as many as you see so the catwalk players know where to direct their attention. If all five come long A, the other four players on your team have a good angle at catwalk to delay and throw all of their nades at the same time.





-The solo player long A needs to push long A, if it is clear, and push all the way through to Terrorist spawn. He will drop down towards the B halls and hold outside of it. He will then get at an angle to where he can throw his HE into B from outside of the halls.
-Assuming that your trap worked, all five players will have gone B. They will think that all five of you are sticking together because it is a save round. When they hear one HE go off, they will assume that you are all there and flush out of the front of the site, rather than come through the halls. And that’s perfect.



-Once the solo player flanking terrorist spawn confirms they are B or the bomb has been planted, all four catwalk players need to line up on the catwalk railing and aim down to counter-terrorist spawn. It doesn’t hurt to leave one spotting catwalk, but you want as many eyes looking down as possible.



-Next, right before the bomb blows up, all five players drop down and unload on all of the terrorists coming out of the front of the bombsite. You will not only more than likely get a kill or two, if you can catch them off guard enough, they will be too distracted to think about the bomb blowing up and die…with their guns.




Third Round: 2-3 Catwalk

-First off, you will want one or maybe two smoke grenades in the middle double doors.



-The best three spawns towards the middle double doors are going to buy HE grenades.
-The three middle players are going to rush up the middle and HE to the left where the end of the catwalk is. You are hopefully going to catch a few players trying to spot down the middle or work the catwalk slowly.



-The other two players will be rushing long A aggressively. Most teams send all five players somewhere, so when the three come up the middle with grenades, the offense will usually focus all their attention here until they kill everything down the ramp. The other two players have a great opportunity to shoot the weakened players in the backs once they flank from long A.
