Every figure shows its source. Where a source is missing, the number is a placeholder — and it is never written as fact.

Act 5 · Patch 13.06

Bind

No mid · Teleporters

Teleporters make a fake credible, and a flank arrives from nowhere.

2 sites · 24 published callouts · outside the pool. Rewards Sentinel · Initiator.

Both defaults, and the buy

Attacking
Split with the teleporter; a straight hit is read instantly.
Defending
Watch the exit, not the entrance.
First buy
Buy as if both sites are one; the teleporter makes a fake credible on any buy.
Utility
Keep one utility for the flank the teleporter creates behind you.

What the library can do here

The library holds no setup on this map yet — a gap, drawn rather than filled.

A tested starting point

No composition is written for this map — the seven in the Competitive pool have one each, and this is not one of them.
