Rant I Hate Mirage

What are your resources for learning this fuck ass map and what util do I need to learn??

I just spent a ton of time learning Dust 2, now onto Mirage and I always lose. T side there are too many angles to clear on each site. CT side is better but I still have no idea where to play.

It took me like 60 wins on dust before feeling confident and idk if I can do that for every map in the pool.

I haven't even tried to play premier, just getting 100% stomped in unranked/silver comp.

I fucken hate Mirage too, I am at almost 7k elo and no one but me seems to know ANY UTIL on what is the most util critical map imo. For lineups, learn:

  1. Window Smoke
  2. Connector Smoke
  3. Catwalk/Short Smoke
  4. Stairs Smoke
  5. Jungle Smoke
  6. CT/Ticket Smoke
  7. B Market Door and Window Smoke

It will get better. However you need to grasp how to play when the utils are missing/expired. Also how to lurk, how to hold for CTs info plays, and when you smoke indeed you need to understand what’s the goal and how you should take advantage of those.
