Where to Focus When Playing Eco Rounds on Dust 2 as CT
On eco rounds, the focus is on forcing Ts into uncomfortable fights. Stack sites, play close corners, and use bait setups to create chaos. You want to avoid open fights where Ts can pick you off at range and punish your weaker weapons.
Communication and timing are key. Stack together, commit to early plays as a group, or gamble on a site. If Ts come into your setup, you have a real chance to trade efficiently and make the round expensive, even if you don’t win.
Avoid splitting up or playing default setups- that’s when eco rounds feel useless. Force the fight where your weapons have the best chance, play together, and try to catch Ts off-guard.
