Learn the most important Anubis callouts for A Site, Mid, and B Site to improve communication, rotations, and round execution.
Common Counter-Terrorist setups and positioning principles in Anubis to help you hold sites and win rounds.
A standard defensive setup with balanced coverage across both bombsites and a dedicated Mid player for early information.
CTs prioritize Water and Canal control to deny B Site access while leaving minimal presence on A early.
Two players contest Mid aggressively while others anchor bombsites, aiming to control rotations.
Use long-range angles and utility to delay pushes. Crossfires from Site and Temple are effective.
Canal and Water control are key. Utility can delay pushes long enough for rotations.
Critical for information and rotations. Holding Mid denies effective splits.
High-risk, high-reward position that can decide B control.
Retakes require coordinated utility and clearing angles methodically. A retakes are difficult without Temple control.
Common Terrorist strategies for attacking Anubis sites and starting powerful pushes against defending players.
Ts prioritize Mid control before splitting into A through Temple and Main.
Ts take Water control before committing to a B Site hit through Canal.
A quick hit onto A designed to overwhelm defenders before rotations arrive.
Central control point enabling effective splits.
Key area for B pressure and flanking options.
Important connector for A splits and post-plant control.
Key smoke and molotov grenade lineups on Anubis to control vision, block angles, and support your team.
Blocks elevated positions on A site, essential for a coordinated site execute.
Prevents defenders from peeking Connector, easing A site pushes.
Critical for B site takes, denying CT vision from above.
Forces defenders out of deep B positions, improving site entry and post-plant control.
