Open interactive Reading Room / Fireplace Hall strat →2F — Reading Room / Fireplace Hall
attack
Open the Reading Room wall with Thermite from the white stairs side. Buck plays vertical from the roof hatch above Fireplace Hall to pressure anchors off default positions. Capitao fire bolts deny the Fireplace anchor spot during the plant execute. Iana drones Reading and Fireplace to locate remaining defenders before committing.
defense
Kaid electrifies the Reading Room wall from behind the piano. Smoke holds Fireplace doorways and denies plant in the last 30 seconds. Jager and Wamai stack utility denial to protect anchor positions from Capitao fire and grenades. Vigil roams white stairs and cigar shop to waste attacker time.
Map-wide ban recommendations (Kafe Dostoyevsky)
- Thatcher (attack ban) — Kafe's reinforced walls on Reading and Mining sites depend on electronic denial. Without Thatcher, attackers must rely on slower alternatives to clear Kaid and Bandit.
- Capitao (attack ban) — Fire bolts deny critical anchor positions behind bar counters and in Fireplace Hall. Removing him weakens late-round execute potential.
- Maestro (defense ban) — Evil Eyes on Kafe's tight plant spots are extremely hard to clear. Maestro provides bulletproof intel and chip damage that stalls executes.
- Smoke (defense ban) — Kafe's narrow doorways and stairwells make Smoke's canisters devastating for plant denial across every site.
