Open interactive Kitchen / Dining Room strat →1F — Kitchen / Dining Room
attack
Buck sets the tempo — Buck plays vertical from 2F to pressure Kitchen anchors through the soft floor. Twitch clears anti-breach and Ace opens Kitchen on a coordinated count. Iana entries first; Nomad holds the back-side angles. East Stairs vertical pressure catches Dining anchors off guard.
defense
Setup is intel-first: Mira places a Black Mirror between Kitchen and Dining Room for sightlines on incoming pushes. Bandit secures the Kitchen wall, Wamai covers projectile lanes. Caveira hunts info from 2F/1F connectors while Azami anchors site. Bandit-trick the Kitchen exterior wall — common Thermite target.
Map-wide ban recommendations (Hereford Base)
- Sledge (attack ban) — Hereford's soft floors between Master/Catwalk and Ammo/Tractor enable vertical play. Sledge is the most reliable opener.
- Thatcher (attack ban) — Master and Kitchen reinforced walls are heavily electrified — Thatcher's EMPs are mandatory for hard breach.
- Mira (defense ban) — Black Mirrors in Master Bedroom and Brewery cover the standard attacker push lanes. Extremely hard to clear without Twitch.
- Lesion (defense ban) — Gu mines on Hereford's narrow connectors and stairwells provide constant intel and chip damage on every push.
