Astra setups: every map
12 setups for Astra across 5 maps, drawn on the official minimap: every ability, where it goes and what it covers.
Astra A: Nebula on A Main and Nova Pulse in front
Site ADefenseCrazy smokes the A Main exit with a Nebula, then places a second star right in front of the smoke, on the site side. He fires it as a Nova Pulse or a Gravity Well to catch whoever walks out of the smoke. He recommends playing a bit back rather than forward in A Main. He also suggests a star on the default plant, to spam or to pull the planter out.
- 1
Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula at the A Main exit, site side: it cuts the view of the entrance and your team plays behind it - 2
Nova Pulse : Star placed right in front of the smoke, site side: in the video, Crazy fires it as a Nova Pulse on anyone walking out
Astra A: Nebulas on A Tower and deep on site
Site AAttackTo take A, Crazy always smokes A Tower (Heaven) to cut the view of the defenders up high. His second Nebula most often goes deep on site, on the A Bridge side. If the defense fights from the back, he puts it further left instead, toward A Security. You only have two Nebulas at a time: keep A Tower and pick the second one.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula on A Tower: it cuts Heaven, where defenders play and jump down onto the site
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula all the way back on site, on the A Bridge side: it cuts the view of anyone who wants to peek from behind
Astra A: Nebula at the A Bath exit and a star in front
Site ADefenseCrazy places a Nebula at the A Bath (Showers) exit, site side: attackers struggle to get out of it. Right in front of the smoke, site side, he adds a star. As soon as he hears or thinks the enemy team is coming out, he fires it as a Nova Pulse or a Gravity Well to disrupt them.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula at the A Bath (Showers) exit, site side: it makes the exit hard for the attackers
- 2Nova Pulse : Star right in front of the smoke, site side: fire it as a Nova Pulse or a Gravity Well when the attackers come out
Astra A: two Nebulas on site to enter from Showers and Short
Site AAttackWhen your team attacks A by splitting between A Bath (Showers) and A Short, Crazy places his two Nebulas side by side on the site. They hide most of the site from the defenders. He then adds a Nova Pulse or a Gravity Well on the corners. To play the post-plant with the Gravity Well, he recommends saving it until the plant.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : First Nebula on the west half of the site, toward A Lamps: it cuts the view of the plant area
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Second Nebula on the site, east side: together with the first, it hides most of the site from the defenders
Astra B: Nebulas on B Elbow and on the CT area
Site BAttackTo take B, Crazy places two Nebulas: one on B Elbow, west of the site, the other toward B Hall, CT side. He says he plays them 99% of the time, because they block the B Elbow area and the CT area. He rules out other placements, which let the defenders peek while you plant.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula on B Elbow, west of the site: it blocks the B Elbow area while you enter
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula toward B Hall, CT side: it blocks the CT area, where the defenders come from
Astra A: Nebulas on A Tower and on CT
Site AAttackTo take A, Crazy smokes A Tower (Heaven) once and CT once. For CT, he shows two nearby placements: right under A Tower, or a bit lower toward A Link, depending on where he thinks a defender is hiding. You only have two Nebulas: A Tower plus one of the two. He warns that the Heaven smoke also cuts the view of a teammate standing below it.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula on A Tower (Heaven): it cuts shots from the platform above the site
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula for CT, right under A Tower: it plugs the way into the site. Crazy sometimes places it a bit lower, toward A Link
Astra B: one Nebula north and one south of the site
Site BAttackTo attack B, Crazy uses two Nebulas: one north of the site, on the A Link side, the other south, on the C Link side. He warns that a badly aimed star can land on the crates or a nearby barrel instead of the ground and give you a worse smoke: aim each placement carefully.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula north of the site, A Link side: it cuts the view from that passage
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula south of the site, C Link side: it cuts the view from the lower part of the site
Astra C: two Nebulas to enter from C Long
Site CAttackWhen the team goes to C through C Long, Crazy uses these two Nebulas almost every round: one in the north-west corner of the site, on the C Link side, the other north-east, on the C Window side. They hide almost all of C from the defenders. For a split on C, he changes: smoke on C Window and smoke on CT.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula in the north-west corner of C, C Link side: it cuts the view from that corner
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula north-east of C, C Window side: together with the first, it hides most of the site
Astra B: Nebulas on B Upper and on the C Link passage
Site BAttackTo enter B, Crazy smokes Heaven (B Upper) and the passage that leads to C Link, on the left of the site. If he knows the defense is pushing A, he smokes Heaven and A Link instead, because the fastest rotation from A to B goes through the A Link door. He also suggests a recalled star on A Link on top of the two smokes.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula on B Upper (Heaven): it cuts the view of the platform above the site
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula in the passage that leads to C Link, north-west of the site: it cuts the arrivals from that side
Astra C: two default Nebulas, on C Hall and toward C Waterfall
Site CAttackOn C, Crazy uses two Nebulas by default: one in the north-west back, toward C Hall, the other closer to the C Waterfall exit. Against defenders who peek early in C Main, he places a star that he recalls, so his team can come out on both sides. He then adds a Nova Pulse and a Gravity Well toward the back of the site or the pillars.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula in the north-west back of the site, toward C Hall: it cuts the view from the top of the site
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula between C Main and C Waterfall, in front of the site: it covers your team's entry
Astra A: Nebulas on A Tree and on Heaven
Site AAttackTo attack A, Khoreoh uses the two usual Nebulas: one on A Tree, the other on Heaven (A Rafters). He says there are no other smokes worth playing. He then adds a Nova Pulse or a Gravity Well on the button, the generator or the back of the site, depending on who he thinks is there.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula at the A Tree exit toward the site: it cuts the view from A Tree
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula on Heaven (A Rafters): it cuts the view from the platform above the site
Astra B: Nebulas on Mid Market and on the CT passage
Site BAttackFor B, Khoreoh places the two classic smokes: one in Mid Market, one on the CT passage west of the site. He says there are no better ones and advises against a one-way smoke closer to the site, which leaves a big gap. He then adds two stars, usually one on the stairs and one on the default plant or toward B Boat House, and fires the Nova Pulse before the Gravity Well.
- 1Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula in Mid Market, before the exit toward the site: it cuts the view from mid
- 2Nebula / Dissipate : Nebula on the CT passage, west of the site: it cuts the defenders' arrival
