Counter-Strike Map Callouts Overview

Knowing the callouts of the map you are about to play is a very vital part of playing Counter-Strike: Global Offensive because it helps communicate better to your teammates about the opponents. The better you are at communicating with your teammates, the better they will be able to help you, so learning the callouts of a map is a very good idea before trying out a new map. The callouts that can be seen here are the most common ones used, while that has been said it isn’t uncommon for most areas to have multiple names for them.
