AWPer

The CT AWPer can begin at Mid, the A cross, Highway, B Halls or a deeper site line. The weapon's presence changes which lanes the T side can cross cheaply, but the assignment is not tied to one opening peek. The player must pick a supported first angle, keep a route out and reposition before the attackers can isolate the rifle with utility and trade spacing.

Opening options

Take a spawn-supported line toward Mid, A Main or B Halls and reset as soon as the shot or utility reveals the position (Aggressive)
Hold a passive crossing angle that punishes the next layer of the default rather than forcing the first duel (Defensive)
Start on one side to shape T utility, then move through Z, Highway or CT as teammate information changes the likely finish (Situational)

Mid-round decisions

Once Mid develops, decide whether the AWP should deny the central cross, reinforce the threatened site or hold the rotation the attackers need for a split. Trying to do all three leaves every timing late.
On a site hold, play behind the rifles' information and cover the lane they cannot watch. The AWP is strongest when the close angles are cleared or traded by teammates.
After contact, change elevation, lane or bombsite when a safe route exists. Repeating the same line lets the T side solve the AWP with one prepared flash or smoke.

What breaks the structure

Taking a first peek without a fallback or teammate who can stop the chase
Rotating the AWP through a route already exposed by lost Mid control

What to study in the POV

Why a particular opening angle is safe for that spawn and setup
How quickly the AWPer leaves after a shot, miss or utility cue
The relationship between the AWP's sightline and the rifles' close-angle coverage
