Train is a map where CTs need to stay organized. With open areas and multiple ways in, defense works best when everyone knows their role and uses utility well. This lesson explains how CTs can build solid defense on Train.
Defending on Train as CT

Start with structure. Each player should know which part of the map to hold and when to help teammates under pressure. If roles aren’t clear, Ts will find easy gaps.
Utility is important for slowing pushes. Smokes, flashes, and molotovs can block Ts from moving in quickly and give time for rotations. Well-timed grenades make site takes harder to pull off.
Teamwork ties the defense together. Simple calls about contact, utility, or rotations keep everyone on the same page. Trading properly and playing off each other makes it much harder for Ts to break through.
Conclusion
CT defense on Train depends on roles, utility, and teamwork. Build around these basics, and the map becomes much easier to control.
