Details
Utility bunkers are strategically valuable locations that offer multiple playable angles and influence over various field sectors. These bunkers allow players to switch roles quickly laning one moment, supporting a push the next, or locking down cross field movement.
Common examples include center cans, wedges, small bricks, or tall stand ups with wide shooting lanes. Their geometry enables strong defensive anchoring and provides pivot points for mid game adaptability.
Utility bunkers frequently feature in communication chains, acting as hubs where mid players coordinate pushes, call eliminations, and adjust pressure.
Teams typically assign their most adaptable players to utility bunkers, as these positions demand constant decision making and rapid lane transitions.
