This lineup will land on B rafters, towards B heaven. Now on this picture, it may not be shown fully; but it will take over the entire area of rafters and some of B heaven, pretty overpowered.

To do it, come over to this spot shown and aim your slow right under the sign and rooftop as such. Then, do a normal throw, takes about 2-3 seconds to land.

Okay hear us out, this might not be the most brilliant lineup ever, but it will get you the job done. How? You can slow behind screens when retaking A site, most importantly you won’t be exposed to enemies as you do it.

Just come over to this staircase and throw your slow in line with the corner of the building as shown. Don’t extend forward unless you want to be exposed to enemies.

Sage Pro Tips

Sage is one of the oldest Sentinels in the game. While her kit is not set to watch flank, she is able to block choke points and give control to her team. So make sure you get the best out of it.
You have 2 slow orbs that you can use per round, make sure you don’t waste both of them at the same time as you should try to extend the duration of how long it stays as much as possible.
To get the best out of these lineups beware of the timing and situation you use it in. Do not use an attack lineup when your enemy is too far ahead or too far behind as this will defeat its purpose.
Make sure to pay attention for the sound after you slow an area, there is a sound que if players try to step through your slow and it can be a round winner difference to know that.
Remember that your slows do not deal any damage, so don’t try to use them for post plant as if they are mollies; a common mistake sage mains resort to.
Do not use your Sage wall to cover up flanks as this does more harm than good. It firstly stops you from being able to rotate in case you need to and secondly wastes the better usage of the wall on choke point.
It is recommended to try the lineups given in a custom match to ensure you are able to do it properly before proceeding to a ranked match and potentially making some game-losing mistakes.
