The Best Sova Lineups For Sunset

If you’re playing Sova and you feel the need to learn a few lineups so you can elevate your gameplay, you’ve come to the right place. While lineups aren’t mandatory to be a good Sova; it can be the differentiator between a good and a great one.
It can also improve your KDA as you no longer would have to stand right in the open with your bow in hand to try and hit a reveal, safe to say it is much more efficient to learn a lineup or two.
In this guide, we will take you through key locations on Sunset that you can reveal to increase your chances of winning your rounds and games, so let’s start:
Attacking Side
A Site
This lineup will land high towards CT, it will reveal everyone standing in and around that area but do not take it for granted as default is likely not going to get revealed.
To do it, come by the doors on A lobby and aim your crosshair between those two roof tops, then perform a 1 charge arrow.
B Site
The other lineup on B site will land on the ledge of default, the planting spot. This reveals everyone playing close left and right, also coming out of market. If there is a smoke though, they won’t be detected.
To do it, come anywhere on B main as long as you’re angled this way, and aim your crosshair in the middle of the wall then shoot a 1 bounce fully charged arrow.
Defending Side
A Site
You may think this lineup lands and reveals only default, but it lands very high up it will cover up all the angles surrounding it too. So do not hesitate in making this your go to retake lineup.
To do it, come by the stairs on A Link and aim your crosshair on line with the wood as shown in the picture then do a jump 1 bar arrow.
B Site
If you want to retake B site easily, this is how you do it. Done from CT, this will reveal everyone on default and stairs.
To do it, come at CT make sure you’re covered and aim your crosshair as shown in the picture. Then do a 1 bar arrow.
Pro Tips
- Always make sure you are safe from enemies pushing you before performing a lineup. While some lineups can be done very quickly, you still need to keep that in mind to not get caught off guard.
- Refer to the pictures to understand where to stand and where to aim for the lineup to work. It is best to practice it in a custom before heading to a Ranked game.
- You can try to innovate and alternate the lineups to your liking if you find it better, it is scenario dependent but you are free to get creative. Simply a turn to the right or left may change where the Arrow goes.
- As a Sova, lineups aren’t everything. Timing is everything. Make sure to use your abilities at a good time to get the best out of it.
- Make sure you don’t spam these arrows consistently as this will lead enemies to pre-aim your arrows’ locations and break them instantly. Instead, alternate between the lineups for better efficiency.
