Summit Map Guide: Callouts, Droppable Walls, and Ranked Strategy

Act 4's new competitive map Summit rewards teams that understand droppable walls, site splits, and post-plant structure. Here is a ranked-ready guide with callouts and defaults.

Summit in one sentence

Two-site, three-lane map with droppable walls — attackers create new angles mid-round; defenders must read wall states, not memorise static holds.

Patch 13.00 added Summit to the competitive pool alongside Sunset. Fracture and Pearl rotated out. If you have not queued Summit yet, start with the Summit-only Swiftplay playlist this week — fastest callout learning before ranked.

For post-plant win rates and peek K/D by callout, see Summit map benchmarks.


Key callouts

A Site: A Main, A Tree, A Rafters, A Default, A Heaven B Site: B Main, B Tunnel, B Plat, B Default, B Back Mid: Mid Courtyard, Mid Link, Training Hall, Meditation Garden Rotates: Connector paths between sites — call wall drops early

Use consistent names in comms. "Tree" and "Rafters" are the angles that decide most A-site retakes.


Droppable walls — what actually matters

Walls can be dropped to:

  • Cut sightlines for executes and post-plants
  • Create new peek angles attackers did not have on default
  • Force defenders to reposition off comfortable anchors
Attack: Drop walls before committing numbers — not after you are already in a 1v2. Defense: Track which walls are up each round; a dropped wall on B Main changes your hold entirely.


Attack defaults

    • Mid control — Summit punishes teams that tunnel A or B without info
    • Wall drop + flash — initiate through new angles, not the same dry peek every round
    • Post-plant structure — plant for trade angles; one player alone on site dies to wall drops

Defense

  • Do not stack until you have info — rotates are long if you guess wrong
  • Default positions change when walls drop — rehearse both states
  • Retakes need utility layering; solo wide swings lose on Summit's tight post-plants

Review on UpForge

Summit is fully supported in UpForge Desktop. Record ranked games, sync your Riot timeline, and jump to rounds where you died on a wall angle you did not know existed. Summit benchmarks show which plants and peeks punish wide swings at your rank.
