Most famous Train callouts
Top 10 CS2 callouts in Train map:
- Popdog: A crucial point for controlling A Yard. It's the ladder room just before B Halls. Players use it for quick access to A Site or to flank enemies.
- Ivy: A long, narrow corridor that's essential for map control. Controlling Ivy can cut off rotations and provide a strong position for attacking A Site.
- B Halls: The staging area for Terrorists before attacking B Site. It's vital for setting up smokes and executes onto B.
- E Box: Located between Popdog and the A Bomb Train, it's a pivotal spot for defending A Site from Terrorist pushes.
- Hell: Next to the Green Train, facing Ivy. It's a key position for defending A Site, offering viewlines to multiple attack paths.
- Z Connector: The main rotation path between A and B Sites. Control here is vital for map dominance.
- Upper B: The higher entrance to B Site. Its elevation gives a strategic advantage for overseeing and controlling B Site.
- T Connector/A Main: The main route for Terrorists into A Site. It's often heavily contested and crucial for site takes.
- CT Spawn: The Counter-Terrorists' starting point. It's important for B Site retakes and controlling rotations to A Site.
- Sidewalk: Running from Lower B/B Ramp to Z Connector, this area is key for B Site defenses and rotations.
