Knockout

Deep End.

Respect the open lanes and check the centre before stepping into its bushes.

The lay of the land

Know your angles.

  • Large water pools occupy the corners, leaving broad open approaches through the middle.
  • A compact central bush rectangle sits inside a prominent surrounding frame.

BrawlSide observations of the saved layout.

BrawlSide’s game plan

Three moves ahead.

  1. Take spaced positions near the small cover islands rather than crossing together in the open.

  2. Check the central bushes from a safe distance before approaching their edge.

  3. As the round closes, keep a shared retreat route instead of being split against different water corners.

The trap to avoid

The centre bush pocket offers concealment, but entering it unseen is not proof that you are safe.
