Many teams have tried the run boost on Vertigo and the risk that comes with it is simple if you fail, you die. That’s what happened to dupreeh when he failed his jump in spawn and gave Heroic a one-man advantage early in the round.
The run boost is an effective strat, as the run booster can surprise the enemy and sometimes not even get spotted. It’s a good method to get control of the stairs and possibly open up the round. The run boost must be practiced before trying.
Don’t try this at home!
