Playing Default on Nuke as T
Start by spreading across the map. Holding key areas like outside and lobby keeps CTs from pushing for early information and gives your team flexibility for site hits.
Use utility to take map control safely. Smokes and flashes help you move into position without giving CTs easy fights. Stay patient and trade if they push.
Once you have control, regroup and decide where to finish. Clear communication and small bits of info- like rotations or utility usage- can turn slow rounds into clean executes.
