Smoke Mid Window, take Temple info safely; commit A Connector split or fade to B via Water.

Use 1–2 key smokes to stabilize Mid; decide split A or Water → B based on CT response.

Two key smokes make A entry playable on half-buy: block A Heaven and A CT, then trade into plant.

Two key smokes: Sniper to deny the long angle from CT spawn, Cave to cut rotators; enter via B Main and trade.

Pressure B from two lanes: Water/B Connector and B Long/B Main; win with timing and trades.

Skip Mid; hard commit B fast with 1 smoke + flash if possible; plant quickly or save guns.
