hey all thought I’d share a couple sticky trap locations every so often as I think of them. Definitely expect these to be more-or-less known by most people, but for those you don’t, here is your chance to learn!

Here’s one that I used just last night, on cp_granary last point.

Remember all those times where you push the opposing team back to last, they pull out a sniper, and start holding one of the side doors open to get a sniper pick? Remember how they always like using a scout to hold open the door? Well, here’s how to ruin their day.

This works best once you know they have a sniper, and they’ve had a scout hold open the left door a couple times until you scare him off with spam. Before he comes back, sticky this location:

If you stack a good number of stickies there, all you have to do is wait for the door to open again, courtesy of that enemy scout, who is 90% of the time going to be hugging that corner to hold the door open, then that trap will kill that scout, give your team a pick, and all you have to do now is uber into last.

Of course, some teams/scouts will hold the door open differently, but for that left door, there really isn’t any other way to do it without blocking the sniper’s LOS. A lot about good trap locations is trying to predict where enemies like to stand, and what they don’t expect to happen!
