CT Tactics

Master Counter-Strike: Source CT tactics on Cache! Learn essential strategies for A Site defense, Mid control, and crucial boost spots to outsmart Ts.

Alright, let's talk about CT tactics on the map Cache. This map's A Site is a prime target for Terrorist rushes, and if they decide to go all-in through A Main, it can be brutal, especially on pistol rounds. Honestly, a 5-man stack on A isn't a great CT strategy. So, a common meta has developed where CTs often let the Ts get an A plant without a huge fight and then focus on retaking the site.

Mid Control: If you're the player responsible for Mid, keep a close eye on the stack of crates near Garage, which players call Booster. Terrorists love to boost AWPers onto these crates, and you can get picked off from there even if you smoke out Garage. Stay sharp!

Vents and Mid Support: Remember how we talked about Vents on Bombsite B? It's boostable from Checkers. This is super useful because it lets a second player watch Mid. They can surprise Ts pushing down that lane and still be in a good spot to rotate back and defend B if needed.

A Site Boosts: Now, for you A players, there are some sweet boost opportunities. If you've got an AWP and a buddy willing to be your footstool, you can get some nasty angles. You can peek over the main shipping container on-site, or get up on the boxes right next to A Main. And if you're feeling really ambitious, head over to YouTube and learn the running boost – it's a game-changer!
