Important Factors for Retaking A Mid Control on Inferno as CT

Retaking mid control on Inferno as CT starts with utility. Flashes, molotovs, and HE grenades are used to push Ts off key positions and create space for your team to move back in. Going without utility often leads to losing players for free or getting stuck in awkward fights.

Timing and teamwork are just as important. CTs should retake mid together, using flashes to blind Ts and clearing angles methodically. Retaking too late or sending players in one by one usually gives the advantage to the Ts, who will be ready and waiting.

Once mid is taken back, CTs should avoid overextending. Reset to more favorable positions, regain rotation options, and force Ts to spend more utility if they want to take it again. The goal isn’t to push deep- it’s to make Ts work harder for map control.
