What we changed: The two-pronged attack (vertical on everything plus a primary hard breach on the Lobby wall, a teammate outside the kitchen window, Gridlock on Connector/E-box and the 90 area, planting on the main breach) is Garfield's (Jul 2026). HardBaguette's guide says the northeast of 2F, the top of the Lobby stairs and Meeting, gives vert over the whole Cafeteria, with a player outside the window and post-plant vert on both Cafeteria doors and the counter. Athieno adds Thermite on the Lobby wall, Zofia clearing from the breach and the hatch-drop option. The defender picture we're attacking (Kitchen corner, Break knee holes, Games/90 Castle, Clash at the top of the Lobby stairs) is R6Mint's. SiegeGG's 48% (346 rounds) is historical pro data. Changes for the current patch: Kali takes the anti-denial slot because of her Y11S3 buffs, Thatcher now uses the E.G.S. Disruptor (15 s disable) rather than thrown EMPs, Thermite carries three 220-damage charges, Sledge swings in 0.8 s and Buck has 36 rounds (Y11S3.1). No shield push, because Noor's Horus Lance pierces shields this season. HardBaguette's video predates the Sept 2025 modernization, which Ubisoft says didn't change the layout. Operator slots and timings are ours.
