Yard pressure: keep Lobby represented
1When the Outside group works Yard toward Secret and Lower, have the Lobby player deny the push and preserve Hut, Squeaky, and Ramp for the next level change.

AWP
- Own Yard for the Outside group and report CT contact, utility, and whether Secret is open toward Lower.
- Leave Yard with the call: join Secret or Ramp into Lower, or return through Lobby for a Hut or Squeaky finish on Upper.
- From Lobby, own Squeaky and support Hut so CTs must respect both Upper entrances.
- When Outside threatens Secret into Lower, keep Vent contested; rotate through Ramp toward Lower or join Upper only after the CT response is called.
- Start in Yard from Silo or its T-side edge with the Outside rifle and report the CT denial.
- Leave Yard with the selected finish—Secret or Ramp to Lower, Hut or Squeaky to Upper—so the AWP stays connected.
- Own Ramp as the second vertical threat while Outside works Yard and the Door player keeps the Upper entrances live.
- Take Ramp when its defender rotates toward Lower; otherwise preserve the Lobby-to-Upper return instead of forcing the staffed level.
- Protect Lobby from the CT push and report whether Hut, Squeaky, or Ramp has been released.
- Stay alive behind Yard pressure, then join Hut or Squeaky for Upper or Ramp for Lower after the IGL calls the thinner level.
Nuke T side separates the Outside role from the Yard it controls: Yard makes the Secret route into Lower credible while Lobby keeps Hut, Squeaky, and Upper live.
- Have the Outside group take Yard behind denial utility, then report whether Secret is open toward Lower before the team commits.
- Keep one player in Lobby to protect Hut and Squeaky at Upper and contest Vent, the direct Upper-to-Lower connector.
- Use Ramp as the second Lower route when Yard shows Secret or Main coverage, and take it when the Ramp defender rotates down.
- Finish on the exposed level: Secret or Ramp into Lower when Upper stays heavy, Hut or Squeaky into Upper when Lower pulls the rotation.
Outside route closes: regroup Ramp
2When Outside reports that Secret-to-Lower is covered or the smoke window is fading, have the IGL regroup the Lobby pack through Ramp toward Lower before Yard defenders recover.
