An A split on Mirage is a classic T-side strategy that pressures the site from both Mid and A. When timed correctly, it can overwhelm defenders and make holding the site much harder. In this short lesson, we’ll break down how to approach an A split and what to focus on.

Important Factors for an A Split on Mirage as T
An A split starts with controlling mid. Your team needs to establish mid presence with smokes and flashes, while clearing common CT positions. Without mid control, the split loses its strength and defenders can focus only on Ramp and Palace.
Once mid is secured, the key is timing. Both groups- the Mid players and the A players- need to hit the site at the same time. If the push is staggered, CTs can isolate fights and hold the site more comfortably.
After entering the site, make sure you clear every close position and secure the plant quickly. Avoid overextending into CT or Jungle too soon. Let your utility and numbers do the work, and set up strong post-plant spots once the site is fully under control.
