Nuke ramp 1v3
The situation
Nuke. T-side. 1v3 with bomb in inventory. 22 seconds. You have AK + smoke + flash + molly. Full armor/helmet. Three CTs known: 1 main hall, 1 heaven, 1 vent. You're in ramp room.
Pick the best play
- A
Pop the ramp boost, take heaven angle
- B
Plant ramp, smoke heaven, hold corner
Smoke main, molly heaven, plant fast lower default
- D
Wait for them to push
Why C is the best play
22s with 3 alive means you must plant FAST and force them to commit. Smoke main isolates the main player. Molly heaven flushes the heaven hold. Plant lower default while they're reacting — best EV in tight time. Waiting (d) loses to time.
