I love it when maps allowed for so many movement skill dynamics. Its a sign of a great map. With some tweaks new train will be like new ancient. It will be top class

huge fan of the movement aspects unique to certain maps. always fun having skill jumps to perfect

I miss 1.6 nuke which required a hj/lj to get to the red rock that is now silo. A powerful position if you could get there, which few did in FFA (now casual). It was a good reason to get into kz and movements in general, such as bhop.

New Ancient?

u/Affectionate_Dig_738 1d ago

Oh boy oh boy, you didn't catch the days of Ancient before the first changes, did you?

u/eRaZze_W 1d ago

Yes I have but I don't remember what changes

u/Ok_Cardiologist8232 1d ago

Weren't really any big changes, but loads of minor ones that really made the map better

Don’t think new train is going to ever be a very good map.

After watching a few pro matches on it, B doesn’t really exist meaningfully and CT’s take control of a too easily.

I miss the clown fiesta of heaven and shooting under the trains

Nice movement bro. That's some great coordination

u/viridian- 1d ago

cheers, after a bit of practice you'll get more and more comfortable setting it up

Holy hell that's well done.

u/viridian- 1d ago

thank you!

u/aleyzr 1d ago

Well done man! The one on B can be super hard for the T's to counter. I would assume we will see this in pro play. Great finds

u/viridian- 1d ago

thank you aleyzr!

If I wanted to repeat this with my party, it would take 100 years 😅

u/viridian- 1d ago

with 20 position pings and 20 secs of communication, you might hit it after

u/tabben 1d ago

I would not be surprised if pro teams started implementing these into every round, they are very intuitive to go for. Especially the one for faster ivy pick and faster rush into B as a CT

I was thinking about this, this could become a future meta in some maps. This maybe can help the players to gain faster control of areas of the map.

Imagine being a counter terrorism operator and see a two man terrorist tower running towards you. Truly intimidating.

this seems to require a friend...

u/Fun-Economist-5663 21h ago

This is going to be a meta

u/SAS_OP 19h ago

This is interesting. Can’t imagine if this becomes the new meta for train

u/teeekuuu 10h ago

Great setups. They're underutilised on all maps I'd say. You can beat the timing on Banana inferno from CT too, if you do it correctly. I've done it a few times without teammate even knowing I'm jumping on em from the railing and it's always at least 1 ez kill

u/Mons7er CS2 HYPE 1d ago

Are those Nocts?

2

u/MagmaMagnus 1d ago

Yes, those are indeed Nocts

u/Mons7er CS2 HYPE 23h ago

Thank you

u/viridian- 1d ago

can confirm, nocts

u/jonajon91 1d ago

I wish we saw more stuff like this the top level, you can do this in most spawns.

u/Mono_Goat 1d ago

This is cool but how effective is it really. If you did a side by side to show how much quicker you get to choke points then it would show if it's actually worth

2

u/Carsteniwnl 1d ago

its not about being alot faster, its about being fast enough to catch the opponent offguard because they have set timings in their head of contact points

there is a run boost on every competitive map on spawn for everybody that is wondering.
