Waylay’s ability kit opens up whole new possibilities for unique strategies on various maps.

On the A-site, you could use Lightspeed to get on top of the generator and kill enemies.

Similarly, Lightspeed can also be used in B-Main to get into the B-Site over the roof.

Waylay’s abilities could be very useful on this map.

During the attack half, her Lightspeed can be used to quickly scale up into elevated areas.

Due to this, the rounds tend to get somewhat chaotic, which is where Waylay can thrive.

Her Lightspeed can help her get on top of boxes and allow her to get kills from off angles.

On the attack half, the Saturate can also help take space in areas like C-Garage and A-Sewer.

Waylay can also have a lot of impact by using the Operator on the defense side.

The long lanes of Haven allow for the perfect sniping spots to get easy first bloods.

As always, if the situation gets scary, she can always Refract back to safety.

Waylay can also dash up to A-Rope from A-Door to take control of the enemies' spawn.

The same sequence can be done for B-Tower from B-Arcade to get inside the site.

Waylay can also have some impact on defense by quickly taking control of A-Hall through A-Door.

However, Waylay mains can have a great time and create a huge impact in several rounds.

However, her biggest threat here could be KAY/O, who has a very high pick rate on Icebox.

2Bind

Bind is another map that heavily favors attack due to its two teleports.

These allow for some very creative plays for Waylay.
