Bomb Defuse

Bomb defusal is a scenario, wherein the main objective of the counter-terrorists is to prevent the terrorists from planting the C-4 bomb, and if this cannot be avoided, by defusing the bomb before the timer runs out. The terrorist objective is similarly to either kill the counter-terrorists, or plant the bomb and ensure detonation. Should the bomb be planted, the normal round timer is considered null; at this point, it is imperative that the CTs find the bomb, kill the terrorists sure to be protecting it, and defuse the bomb.

The bomb can only be planted at a bomb site, of which there are usually two on a map (usually assigned the letters A and B). On defusal maps CTs can buy a special defusal kit that decreases the time needed to defuse a bomb.

The defusal scenario is by far the most popular and most balanaced game mode. For those reasons, it is usually the only scenario used for tournaments or other competitive matches.
