Seems like everyone tries to rush "A" more often since it is closer, but in my mind, "B" is a lot more attractive..on Defense at "B" you have very good vision of the middle portion of the map as the Offense tries to do their thing. Including guys that think lying in/very near the spawn is a good place to try and snipe the Defenders at "A"..

At "B", you have their broadside! But, alas, a well placed 203 or 2 and anyone inside "A" or "B" site is a gonner..!

So, what have we learned..mostly that Countdown sucks! hahahhaah

So true Birdie most of the time people seem that a rush to A is best (on countdown). Mainly because if you can smoke out the front of A and if you throw stuns and flashes you can beat them into A and once in A with smoke still there you can plant the bomb, throw some clays down and defend. I hate to say it but rushes work. Now I would like to see a plan involved besides rushing but heres the thing about rushes. They either work very well or fail miserably. Nonetheless I would love to see plans worked out I mean we have 7 minutes to plant the bomb, lets use those 7 minutes. One thing I noticed about the defense at first they are always watching for a rush. So not rushing would force them to wait. On the other hand if you wait 6 minutes and leave 1 minute to plant they are ready for you. I think waiting is a good option but wait too long and it will fail too. One thing that I think people should think about during the game is this. Play the game like real life. Don't do something that you probably will get killed doing in a real situation. Of course it is just a game but I found playing that way makes me a better player. But I am not a real good plan maker and when I do make a plan they sometimes fail but I am always trying to think of other ways. I do have some interesting ideas on some maps and I will throw them out tonight or probably tuesday night. If anyone is interested on seeing some of my (hopefully sucessful) plans. Be on tonight or tommorow night.
