Cypher’s Excellent B Site Setup on Ascent: VALORANT Strategy Guide
Effective use of abilities in VALORANT can make all the difference in a match. Being prepared for an enemy push can mean the success or failure of a round. One player, khemyc, shared a valuable strategy on how to use Cypher’s abilities to hold B site on Ascent effectively. Let’s dive into the details.
The Trapwire Setup
In this strategy, the player strategically places Cypher’s Trapwires in front of the two main paths leading into B site from B main. These are the most common routes that attacking teams take to approach the site. The Trapwires briefly trap players and mark them on the screen, allowing Cypher players to track their movements easily.
Advantageous Wallbang Potential
The unique feature of these Trapwires is that they are visible through walls, providing a significant advantage for Cypher players. From a protected position, players can potentially eliminate enemies using wallbangs. This setup creates the perfect opportunity for players to sit on the site and take down their opponents before they even enter the area.
It’s worth noting that using a high penetration weapon such as the Odin can result in multiple kills, enabling a single player to hold the site and secure a round victory. Even if not all enemies are eliminated, the enemies will be stalled or forced to rotate, giving the defending team a significant advantage.
