Are you a Sage main? Well, whether you are or not, this guide is going to elevate your gameplay in that agent. It may even lead you to pick her in your next ranked matches. Why you may ask? Simply because, we will show you some of the best Sage slow lineups on Icebox.

So let’s take you through some of the best lineups for both defense and attack helping you maximize your benefit from the agent’s ability kit:

Attack Side

A Site

Attacking A is not easy because there are about a thousand angles you’d want to clear before going in. This lineup lands on back site, making it harder for anyone to peek from there.

To do it, come from under belt on A main and aim your crosshair just in line as shown in the picture.

B Site - Backsite

Over to B site, this lineup lands on back site, and it is done from B main without even needing to peek enemies. This makes it amazing for holding flank and still helping your team execute on site (assuming you’re the only sentinel on the team)

To do it, come over to this position on B main and aim your crosshair in line with the star shown in the picture. Then, send off your slow!

Defense Side

A Site Default

If you’re going to retake A, you definitely want this lineup. This lands on default slowing everyone in and around the green box - you need this.

Very simple and straight forward. Walk up anywhere on screen and bounce it off the roof as shown in the picture. Make sure back site is clear first.

B Site Default

This lineup may seem a bit complicated but the idea is simple: As you’re rotating to B site, you’ll cross the kitchen ledge, so you can use that as a window to throw this lineup that will land either on default or back yellow.

To do it, come to the corner as shown in the picture and aim your crosshair in line with the star. IF you want it to land on yellow, aim slightly forward.

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.
