A site on Overpass is wide and open, which makes retakes tricky. With Ts able to hold from multiple angles, CTs need clear timing and coordination to succeed. This lesson explains how to approach A site retakes with confidence.
Retaking A Site on Overpass as CT

Wait for teammates and plan the retake together. Pushing one by one only feeds the Ts. Coming in at the same time from different angles gives a real chance to win the round.
Use utility to create space. Flashes can blind Ts in open areas, smokes block their vision from long or bank, and molotovs can clear out close corners around the site.
Once inside, focus on trading and defusing safely. Call out who’s covering which angle and communicate about the bomb timer. Clean coordination makes the difference between losing and clutching the round.
Conclusion
Retaking A on Overpass is about teamwork, utility, and patience. With proper coordination, even tough post-plant setups can be broken.
