What we changed: Strat Roulette's 'The Best Defense is a Good Offense' (randomsiege) says: stay away from the objective room, and as soon as the attackers plant or secure it, rush them. 'It's a Trap!' (same author) puts C4 in the corners of the room, hides below, and sets it off as they start securing. We use the operators who can hit a defuser from outside the room (Pulse and Warden with Nitro, Echo's Yokai, Smoke's gas, Fenrir's mines). Ubisoft's Y11S3.1 notes (22 Sep 2026) cut Fenrir's gas time to 1.9 s. Echo's burst refills in 15 s since Y11S3. The pocket layout comes from our Fireplace/Mining research (Submarine, Art of War, Take Piano and Cigar). The 'planted' call, the pocket order and the timings are ours. A plant gives the attackers a 45 s countdown, so this only works if every piece of utility lands in the first 10 seconds.

Written up in our own words. The tactics are the creators'; go support them.
