Counter-Strike: Source Cache map guide. Learn about its CT-sided nature, T-side advantages with Mid control, and cover spots, especially on Bombsite B.

Cache suffers from the opposite curse Dust II does. In my opinion, it's a CT-sided map that can easily become a T-sided affair at higher level play. The chokes (areas players must fight over) players must fight over are not nearly as bad as the ones on, say, Inferno or Overpass. If the Ts (Terrorists) can wrestle Mid control away from the CTs (Counter-Terrorists), then they literally get the option to attack any site from any angle they choose. With that said though, the sites and their surroundings have multiple places to take cover (especially Bombsite B), and of course it's only fair that the CTs are the first ones to take advantage of that. So if you're new to Cache, I'd say keep your expectations somewhere between 5 and 7 rounds on T side.

Tips
  • Bombsite B offers multiple places to take cover.
  • CTs can take advantage of cover spots early in the round.
  • If Ts gain control of Mid, they gain flexibility in attacking sites.
