Best Brimstone Lineups on Ascent

Brimstone is a Controller whose Incendiary + Sky Smoke decides rounds on Ascent: fast smokes and post-plant molly burns on default. The setups below are organized by attacking executes and defensive retakes, so learn one side at a time — most players only need two reliable Brimstone lineups on Ascent (one for attack, one for retake) to cover the majority of rounds.

How to use these Brimstone setups on Ascent

• Attack: throw the setup before your team scales — Incendiary + Sky Smoke buys the plant window, not the frag itself.
• Post-plant: play off the spike timer, not the kill feed. A delayed Brimstone molly or reveal forces the defuse off even without contact.
• Defense/retake: save one setup for the retake. Pre-placed utility clear default plant spots without peeking.
• Practice: learn each throw in a custom game first — stand spot, aim landmark, then the timing. Consistency beats quantity.
