  • Due to the uneven nature of the island's terrain, it can be difficult to place a Mini-Sentry in a hurry. Plan ahead of where to place your Mini-Sentry to not be caught off-guard by another player.
  • The Stilt House can be used to put a sneaky Teleporter exit, allowing for your teammates to come from an unexpected angle. A similar sneaky placement can be done at the large side exits out of the big houses, which have an extended platform right outside to the left, that allows for an easy sneaky nest.

  • The roofs of the Big House, as well as the Walkway, are great spots for sniping as they offer a view of the entire map. Be careful of flankers coming from the side, however, as they can have easy access to the Walkway or Roof.

  • The small size of the island and the closeness of the spawns means the spawning outline around teammate may reveal you if you uncloak near the Big House. Consider uncloaking on top of the roofs then dropping down on the opposite end of the enemy spawn to backstab enmies that are unlikely to look back.
  • The large side exits out of the big houses have a extended platform right outside to the left that allows for easy decloaking and camping.
