best Valorant map of all time!
thank you mr. Riot
My favourite setup is a retake one at A site, where I can spam through CT (which will be smoked most likely), with trips on the plant area itself, as my team pushes out of B to flank the attackers. This setup is so ridiculously strong as it catches people terribly off guard. My friends tried it, to a high degree of success as well.
However, more often than not I find myself taking space aggressively on defence with the camera (especially on A main and B arcade), and tripping the other end (B main and A dish are great spots to default trip on defence, as those are single chokes taking control of the whole quadrant, plus you can set those in the buy phase itself). My playstyle on Cypher here is very much like an immobile Sova (inspired by master nAts), for a lack of a better word.
Or you can just play the traditional one way setups from site like the other maps - content creators on You Tube already have those.
On attack tho, I use my cam and my trips exclusively to watch the flank (on other maps I usually use the cam for aggressive intel in the execute) - trips cover A main and B main, cam covers the dish/arcade flank (make sure to just tab in and out of the cam frequently to check that flank - the intel is gathered from the minimap in this case). Defenders simply cannot catch us off guard. I'll recommend this attack setup to anyone who wishes to play Cypher on Fracture because it's really very foolproof.
Because flanking is so common on this map, you really wanna stay alive and play for your life as Cypher, at least till the later part of the post plant (more so on this map simply because of the insane value he brings here). Easily his best map so far, and arguably the only map where he's too good to be replacable by Killjoy.
