Overpass gives CTs many ways to control the pace of the round. With good setups and communication, defenders can shut down pushes and make site holds much easier. This lesson explains how CT defense works on Overpass and what makes it effective.
Defending on Overpass as CT

Start with structure. Each player needs to know their position and how to help if pressure comes in. Without clear roles, Ts can find openings too easily.
Utility shapes the defense. Smokes, flashes, and molotovs can slow down site hits or deny early control. Well-timed grenades make Ts waste time and force them into tougher fights.
Teamplay holds it all together. Sharing information about contact, utility, or rotations keeps the defense connected. When CTs play off each other and trade properly, Overpass becomes a difficult map for Ts to break open.
Conclusion
CT defense on Overpass depends on structure, utility, and teamwork. Build around these basics, and holding the map feels far more comfortable.
