Learn to master holding bomb sites in Counter-Strike. Utilize smokes, molotovs, and coordinated crossfires to delay pushes and secure site control.

Holding a bomb site involves setting up crossfires, using utility to delay or deter pushes, and communicating enemy movements. Typically, two players will defend each site, with one player covering 'mid' or acting as a 'rotator'. Use smokes to block entry points, molotovs to deny pushes, and flashes to blind incoming enemies. Always be aware of your teammates' positions and be ready to re-position or rotate if a push is committed to another site. Don't peek aggressively into multiple enemies unless you have a clear advantage or are trading a kill.
