at the start of the match use your mobility to get to far fast stealth halfway to far drop shadow trap in a hidden spot where they wont walk over it and as stealth wears off fakestealth Far and let them see you do it to make it look like your going to fight 1v1 far (heartseekering in black powder towards them works perfectly) and then hike it back to mid so u can fight 5v4 mid while the farpoint guy thinks your going to farpoint and waits to get a number on you at mid..

heres the kicker that most thieves dont understand. As the farpoint makes his way finally to mid after wondering if u were far FAKESTEALTH FAR AGAIN if he doesnt bite then stay in the mid fight in the 5v5(most thieves leave too early for decap and leave their team in a -1 or 4v5). If someone on their team goes down u have another 15 sec or so to stay in mid and kill someone else before porting far for the decap before they respawn. Or if someone on your team goes down you can stay in the fight until you feel like your team cant win it and you can port far for the decap also.

Hold the decap / cap as long as possible and repeat process

Important – NEVER 1v1 far at the start / but you can 1v2 if u can distract
Important – dont ever fight them on a point they already have capped just fakestealth far and setup +1s until ur ready to get the decap theres no need to fight a 1v1 on a point they already have capped
Important – if your team tries to fight over sidepoints pretend mid is far and do the same thing with mid as you would with far fakestealthing and leaving trap to decap if possible.

This allows you a garunteed +1 for your team if they let you do your job
