What we changed: Combines alyttleton's 2025 reinforcement and hole plan with Zear0's Azami barrier spots and Athieno's 2026 version (Warden with a shield, Thorn traps on the drops, Valkyrie below). Zear0's video is from 2023, so only the barrier positions are kept. alyttleton says the old jump-out from Piano's stage window is gone and that Siege X's rappel changes let attackers switch windows fast, which is why this plan tells Piano players not to cross window lines late. Backups were added for Siege X per-round bans.
