Golden shared the fundamentals of holding B site on Ancient in pugs, focusing on matchmaking rather than advanced pro-level setups. Drawing on his own experience, he explained how simple utility usage and positioning can make life easier for both you and your teammates.<\/p>\n
He highlighted the importance of having a plan from spawn \u2014 whether it\u2019s throwing an early smoke for B doors, a molotov to slow down rushes, or a flash to contest long. These moves not only buy time but also allow your cave player to secure stronger positions.<\/p>\n
Golden also stressed the need for variation: always throwing the same nades makes you predictable, while mixing between molotovs, flashes, and quiet approaches keeps opponents guessing \u2014 something especially powerful in pugs.<\/p>\n
To close, he touched on pistol rounds and aggressive options, noting that small micro-plans like bait setups with a third player can swing rounds. His advice was simple: watch how pros approach FACEIT or ranked games, since those scenarios are closest to what most players will face.<\/p>\n
