On Mirage CT, ZywOo plays the edges: he squeezes value from failed or fading smokes, double-checks gaps, and only rotates when it’s the call — not the panic. If late utility lands, he holds, re-clears, and punishes walk-throughs instead of forcing risks.
When he wants initiative, he creates it: body-blocking key smokes, tossing deep nades or a counter-smoke, then timing a re-peek. Golden rule: if a teammate is alive behind the smoke, he uses that distraction to flash through or slice the wall; if isolated, he resets and waits for the next favorable contact.
A quirky trend: teams rarely spend a true CT-spawn smoke mid-round and lean on flashes instead — perfect for his anti-flash posture and micro-strafes. He wins utility battles by refusing the first fight and owning the second one.
