General (All Classes)

Class-specific strategy

  • A good idea when going for the final control point is to wait in a corner or secluded out of sight area near the control point for all the enemies to pass, then start capturing. You may be able to draw the enemies back, allowing your team to advance.
  • Be sure to take the secluded routes, to maximize surprise. This way you can have the enemies' health low before they even realize they're being attacked.
  • The Sandman may be a good choice for this map, due to the long straightaways.

  • Use corners to your advantage by spraying rockets on incoming enemies. It surprises them and helps your team move forward easily.

  • The massive amounts of corners can always be used to your advantage to catch players by surprise near objectives.

  • Because of the mass amounts of corners, Stickybombs can usually catch a player by surprise and possibly obtain more damage from the pumpkin bombs.

  • Staying near the objective is always a good idea.
  • Choke points are fairly common and provide a great area to attack with another Heavy around with Medics healing.

  • You can set up a Sentry Gun, Dispenser, and a Teleporter exit just behind the hut on the cliff face.
    • On RED team this gives a surprise rear attack against the advancing BLU team.
    • On BLU team this can prevent RED pushing BLU back to the first point.
    • Act as a distraction on ground level by shooting at enemies to get their attention so that they do not notice the Sentry Gun, and when they come to attack you, the Sentry Gun should finish the job.
    • Refrain from using the Wrangler as this will give away the Sentry Gun's position before it's had a chance to cause any damage.
    • In this spot the Horseless Headless Horsemann will come after you but cannot kill you.

  • Not the best sniping map because of its cramped space. The Huntsman is probably the best sniping weapon here because you still have full range of sight with it.
  • The Jarate would be helpful in this map's space because Pyros would generally dominate small areas. Use your Jarate to extinguish teammates and yourself.
  • Going into high buildings usually have ledges from which you can climb onto. Walls from the building block sneak attacks and a great area to snipe.
  • High-Up areas usually give an advantage as pumpkin bombs usually spawn in the range of The Huntsman and any Sniper Rifle.

  • While attacking the final control point, in order to attack any enemies on the control point, it may be a good idea to jump down from the third floor through the gigantic hole in the floor.
  • A good idea when sneaking into the Manor on offense is to take the higher road, as there are less enemies commuting through here than through the front door.
