Each CS2 maps callout you need to know

Master the fundamentals. Read through the briefing below, then prove your knowledge in the final capstone quiz to secure your rewards.

Counter-Strike is a game of information. If you die and yell "He's over there!" your death was entirely useless. You must give your team exact coordinates instantly.

The Anatomy of a Callout:

  • The Location: The specific name of the area (e.g., "Ticket Booth," "Banana," "Secret").

  • The Status (Optional but vital): Are they low HP? What weapon do they have? (e.g., "One pushing Banana, AWP, lit 50").

  • Brevity is King: Do not clutter the voice comms with complaints about how you died. Give the callout, and make sure you use push-to-talk key to communicate, so the remaining players can hear footsteps instead of you.

Study the radars provided below. These are the universally accepted names for every chokepoint and hiding spot in the Premier map pool.
