'''Wingman''' is a 2v2 ranked game mode in [[Counter-Strike 2]] played on smaller sections of standard maps. It provides a fast-paced competitive experience that emphasizes individual skill and coordination with a single partner.<br />
<br />
== Overview ==<br />
Wingman is the 2v2 counterpart to the 5v5 [[Competitive (Game Mode)|Competitive]] mode. Matches are played on condensed versions of maps, typically featuring a single bombsite. With only two players per team, every kill and every play has an outsized impact on the round. Wingman is ranked with its own separate skill groups.<br />

== Available Maps ==<br />
Wingman uses smaller versions of existing maps, typically featuring one bombsite. The map pool rotates and includes select versions of popular competitive maps as well as Wingman-specific map sections.<br />
<br />
== Strategy Tips ==<br />
* '''Communication is everything''' in 2v2. Call every piece of information to your partner.<br />
* '''Trade kills''' immediately. If your partner dies, you must be in position to refrag.<br />
* '''Utility is critical''' since well-placed smokes and flashes can win rounds outright.<br />
* '''Learn the smaller map layouts''' as they differ from the full competitive versions.<br />
* '''Eco management''' is simplified with only two players, but still important. Coordinate buys.<br />
* Wingman is excellent '''practice for clutch situations''' since you frequently find yourself in 1v1 or 1v2 scenarios.<br />
* '''AWP usage''' is powerful in Wingman due to the smaller map areas and limited angles to cover.<br />
