Vertigo’s unique two-floor design makes it one of CS2’s trickiest maps for callouts. Even experienced players can struggle with its layout. To make communication easier, here’s a detailed guide to all CS2 Vertigo callouts.
- T Spawn: The area of the map where the Terrorists will spawn each round.
- T Stairs: The 90-degree angled stairs directly beside T Spawn leading up toward Mid.
- Generator: Area with a small generator above T Stairs right before entering Mid.
- Toilets: Set of Blue toilets near T Spawn, under the Generator. Players can open both these toilets and hide in them.
- Mid: A large area with access from the Generator, CT Spawn, B Site, and a path toward A Site. Most gunfights take place in this area.
- T Mid: Section of Mid closest to T Spawn. Terrorists usually have control of this area.
- Top Mid: Section of mid closest to CT spawn. The Counter-Terrorists usually have control of this area.
- Boost: A large crate in Mid. Terrorists can boost their teammates to get an angle over this crate.

- Headshot: Area between Top Mid and Connector.
- Elec/Electric Box/Cooler: Large AC exhaust unit toward the left of the Connector exit.

- Default B: Plant area in B Site closest to the three orange/red boxes.
- Catwalk/Cat: The metal platform behind B Site extended beyond the building boundary.

For example, a certain player base will use “Elevator” while others will use “Lift.” Fortunately, you won’t have to worry about getting confused if you know all callout variations. Go through all the callouts listed above and use them in CS2 matches to improve your odds of winning.
