Astra in ranked

Nobody knows how to play against her or with her. Not even Ascendant/low Immo. I play her lots recently cuz I get Pearl once per two games. I've gotta say, if anyone plays Astra on that map, just play connector or mid link. Don't make the mistake of playing A. At the start I used to anchor A, but it's so bad. You can just setup a smoke and a gravity well if the enemies do an A rush. Setting up a smoke on mid link and Art too. They will barely ever push through mid doors if it's smoked. And if they do, just call in your teammate to peek out from B and fight them with a suck or something. B hold is the only problem if you don't have a Viper on the team. Just play retake on B, it's impossible to hold even with all the Astra util. You can just ult or smoke off pillar when it comes to retaking the B site.

I hope I'm not wrong with most of this stuff. If anyone has a better way of playing Astra in ranked feel free to say. But personally this is my way of playing Astra on defense. Hope I helped somehow!

Solo viper sucks tho. Astra is better as a solo controller I think.

astra is like sentinel but smoke role, u need to put the smoke/gravity/stun setup, and u need to go in form, thats why its complicate to use compare other smokes

Idk. I’ve never had problems holding A with astra. I’ll have my initiator play art and get info main, then I’ll hold or get orb and back off to a passive hold backsite. It’s worked for me but I’m only asc rn

Yeah, I dunno, I've never gotten the support on the A site. Even if I asked for it. They just get smoked off from art and don't use their fade eye or whatever they have. So I kinda have a bad experience with that.

I see. Something I thought of was starting art and playing very careful mid for early info. Don’t take any fights and fall back connector side if there’s pressure. That would allow rotates from your team from mid while still allowing you to fall back to spawn.
