How to attack Kafe Dostoyevsky 2F
Kafe 2F has two sites that share Fireplace Hall (south). Most of the 3F floor above them can be opened, so whoever owns 3F owns 2F. Mining is opened from Red Corridor, Reading Room from Pillar, and Fireplace Hall from White Stairs.
Take 3F first, then open one reinforced wall into the site and hit it from the floor above and the stairs at the same time.
Roles
Hard breach
Mining: breach the Red Corridor → Mining wall. Reading Room: breach its north wall from Pillar. Backup: the Fireplace Hall wall from White Stairs.
Anti-gadget
Clear Bandit/Kaid/Mute on the marked wall, then any Mira that watches the plant.
Vertical / soft breach
Open the 3F floor: Piano over Mining and Train, Bar over Reading Room. The Piano hatch drops into Train.
Intel
Drone Train, Reading Corridor and the site corners. Call the Mira and shields before the breach.
Entry
Swing the breach with a trade partner; clear the corner next to the wall first.
Flank watch
Hold Red Stairs, Wood Stairs or White Stairs (whichever your team is not using) during the push.
Mining Room / Fireplace Hall
- Move: Red Stairs → Red Corridor
- Move: White Stairs
- Drone: Drone Mining and Train through the Red Corridor door
- Vertical: Open the 3F Piano floor above Mining
- Enemy likely: Train anchor (swaps between both rooms)
- Enemy likely: Fireplace Hall anchor
- Hard breach: Mining wall — breach it from Red Corridor
- Move: Push through the breach into Mining
- Plant: Mining, behind the Red Corridor breach
- Hold: Red Corridor, watching the breach
- Hold: White Stairs (flank)
- Hard breach: Fireplace Hall wall — backup breach from White Stairs
Red A/B circles are the two bomb spots. Numbers on the map match this list. Positions are drawn on Ubisoft's official blueprint and are approximate.
Team execute
- Take 3F (Piano and Cigar) first — Piano sits right on top of Mining and Train.
- Two players come up Red Stairs into Red Corridor; one player takes White Stairs.
- The anti-gadget player clears the Red Corridor → Mining wall, then the hard breacher opens it.
- Open the Piano floor over Mining at the same time, and push the breach.
- Plant Mining behind the breach; the White Stairs player holds Fireplace Hall.
Plant
Plant Mining right behind the Red Corridor breach, so the player in Red Corridor and the player on 3F Piano both cover it. Fireplace Hall is the backup plant from the White Stairs side.
Post-plant
- Red Corridor, looking through the breach
- 3F Piano, playing the floor above Mining and Train
- Red Stairs (flank)
- White Stairs, looking into Fireplace Hall
Reading Room / Fireplace Hall
- Move: Wood Stairs → Main / Pillar
- Move: White Stairs
- Drone: Drone Mining Corridor and Reading Corridor
- Vertical: Open the 3F Bar floor above Reading Room
- Enemy likely: Train anchor (swaps between both rooms)
- Enemy likely: Fireplace Hall anchor
- Hard breach: Reading Room wall — breach it from Pillar
- Move: Push through the breach into Reading Room
- Plant: Reading Room, on the Pillar side
- Hold: Pillar, watching the breach
- Hold: White Stairs (flank)
- Hard breach: Fireplace Hall wall — backup breach from White Stairs
Red A/B circles are the two bomb spots. Numbers on the map match this list. Positions are drawn on Ubisoft's official blueprint and are approximate.
Team execute
- Take 3F Bar first; it sits on top of Reading Room.
- Two players take Main / Pillar from Wood Stairs or the Terrace Entrance; one takes White Stairs.
- The anti-gadget player clears the Pillar → Reading Room wall, then the hard breacher opens it.
- Open the Bar floor over Reading Room and push the breach while White Stairs pinches Fireplace Hall.
- Plant Reading Room on the Pillar side and hold from Pillar, 3F and White Stairs.
Plant
Plant Reading Room along the Pillar-side wall right after it opens, so Pillar and the 3F Bar floor both cover it. Fireplace Hall is the backup from White Stairs.
Post-plant
- Pillar / Main, looking through the breach
- 3F Bar, playing the floor above Reading Room
- Laundry / White Stairs
- Wood Stairs (flank)
Pitfalls
- Entering 2F without clearing 3F above it.
- Leaving a stairwell unwatched — Kafe defenders love late stair flanks.
- Fighting in Train with no drone on it.
If defenders…
- If the Mining wall is locked down, go White Stairs, open Fireplace Hall and plant there.
- If the Reading Room wall is denied, open the Laundry → Reading wall from the White Stairs side.
- If defenders stack 3F, take it slowly with three players, then drop to 2F.
