Overpass is a dynamic CS2 map set in a park and canal environment, emphasizing long-range fights, connector control, and multi-level strategies. Its layout rewards teams with strong utility usage and map knowledge, making it a staple in competitive play. This guide covers essential tactics, a complete list of callouts with multilingual pronunciation for international teams, and tips to excel on both sides. Whether you’re pushing B Monster or holding A Long, mastering Overpass can turn the tide in matches.
Essential Tactics for Overpass
- Mid Control: Vital for rotations; use smokes for Connector and flashes for Playground to gain early info.
- A Site Takes: Split from Long and Bank, smoking CT and using molotovs for Toilets.
- B Site Rushes: Fast pushes through Monster with utility to deny Bombsite boxes.
- CT Defaults: Hold Long with AWPs, stack B with utility, and rotate via Water or Connector.
- Fakes and Rotations: Fake A noise to pull CTs, then hit B; quick rotations win rounds.
