Is Cache Back to CS2? Will Cache Be In The Official Map Pool? All You Need To Know
Is Cache Officially out?
No, Cache is not out yet but just the sheer idea of having it available to try on the steam community map workshop posted by the map creator Shawn Snelling himself is making the entire counter strike player base indulging in this nostalgic hype as we previously had for train, this time this map has been made with an inspiration of Chornobyl or what most might know as Chernobyl which is a historic city in Ukraine, this is really iconic as one of the greatest plays done by S1mple the Ukranian Player was on this map which was commemorated with a graffiti under heaven wall.
How To Play Cache in C2
Simply browse your steam to download the workshop map titled "cache", once downloaded you can test it in game however there isn't official valve servers of cache as of now
S1mple Graffiti?
Unfortunately, there wasn't any signs of S1mple's iconic graffiti play, but remember this is just the early version of Cache which is on community workshop and not out yet, even though S1mple didn't get his graffiti for now, the whole map is inspired from his country which is pretty cool.
What Is New In Cache CS2
For starters, this mid spot from ct used to have a way to look from to enable ct's to pick the awper's boosted on the other side of mid, however now either you 4 man boost, not sure if it's possible or simple throw nades out of this crack in the wall, but be careful Nades go both ways and they could Nade you as well
This Truck's wheel where some would hide to save or try to do cheesy plays, no longer has you completely hidden, better find a different spot to have your jame time in, still you might be able to get cheeky kills from here tho.
This spot on top of truck where you can self boost to is still in Cache which is good, however in CSGO this was used to counter the AWP players from the other side of mid that would pre aim that one spot everyone asks for a boost for, now that crack in the wall simply can be naded but you don't have to warry of an awper peeking from that angle
If you hear " boost me" in your CS2 games on cache, this is probably where your team mates want you to boost them, coming from CT side with the right bunny hopping skills you can reach here yourself, however from the T side it is a must someone boosts you, but beware no one pushes you from A main or Squeaky
Speaking of squeaky doors, this door that was once the strongest unbreakable door in counter strike now can vanish into thin air and be broken just by using a simple nade, this allows someone from heaven or mid to watch it without letting the Ts cross to a cheeky corner
I believe back in CSGO there was a pipe here that you can go on top of and throw some line ups, now this has been replaced with a tree growing out of this building, which adds a unique post-apocalyptic vibe to the map in CS2
What is new to Cache in CS2 is that the map now has multiple strategies for lineups, with the right jump throw you can even figure out a way to throw a smoke from A site to B site and vise versa as there are open spaces on A site that allow for this.
Also the classic sun room is still what it is, this is where most of your b site lineups will be thrown from, its good to have this element stay in Cache from CSGO.
This Iconic spot on Cache opposite to forklift where you'd ask a team mate to boost you and usually go unnoticed still exists, and this spot was named and popularized after the streamer and ex pro player shroud, however he has moved on from cs, shall we give it a new name?
When Will Cache Be Released in CS2?
Nothing is official yet; however VALVE might be cooking again, it is safe to assume that we will see cache make it to the official map pool before the Austin Majors, not so soon but not so lateWhich Map Will Replace Cache?
If Vertigo was still in the map pool the answer would have been simple, Ancient reminds me of how Aztec was in CSGO, although ancient is loved by the community, maybe their love for cache will emerge victorious, maybe inferno or Mirage will go into a remake and cache will be replacing one of them, nothing is certain, but I believe Mirage needs changes the most to fit the CS2 map theme.
What is The Most Expensive Galil Skin In CS2
Last but not least, the most expensive Galil skin in Counter Strike has always been The Cerberus, specifically the factory new souvenir Galil Cerberus, with speculations of Cache becoming official again, we might be seeing a further rise in the price of this skin and a new exciting cs2 cache collection.
