§ Breakdown [AI-translated — feedback channel coming soon]

A counterintuitive macro: on Flashpoint, taking the next point first beats holding the current one to the end; on KOTH at a % deficit, giving it up once to rebuild ults and HP beats contesting. Refusing to cling to what can't be taken moves the defender's advantage from the enemy to you. If Fight Reset is "the regroup once the numbers are back," conceding the point is the bigger call — resetting even at the price of space and the point itself. It assumes time pressure and a % gap, so it takes real understanding of the game mode.

When to Use [AI-translated — feedback channel coming soon]

On KOTH when retaking with ults and a full team is more efficient. On Flashpoint when the fight on the current capture point is unfavorable and taking the next point first is the better play.

Failure Modes [AI-translated — feedback channel coming soon]

The reset doesn't land in time after conceding, so the next point's fight also starts at a disadvantage. Conceding too early loses space unnecessarily in a spot you could still have held.
