Stratuga[www.stratuga.com] is a new website, currently in beta, and aims on giving players the opportunity to create strats with your team on "paper".
Currently its available for LoL, Dota 2 and CS:GO.

It´s actually pretty simple. You go on http://www.stratuga.com/ and the first thing you will see is a nice and clean overview. You can choose one of the the following maps:

• Cobblestone
• Train
• Overpass
• Nuke
• Mirage
• Inferno
• Dust II
• Cache

After choosing a map it will give you a top view of the selected map.
You can zoom in and out by simply clicking the + and - symbols in the top left corner.

So I chose Mirage and this is what it looks like:





Let´s take a closer look at the left sided menu.





General
In the "general" tab you can change all kinds of general settings, such as:

• The Map
• Map Title (comes in handy after creating lots of strats)
• Notes
• Invite Friends (plan with your friends in real-time)

So lets do a simple A bombsite take for the T´s.
I change the map title to "Default A take with Smokes" and added a note "Buy 5 Smokes".

Add Elements
Now I´m switching to the 2nd tab in the menu, "Add Elements".
After choosing "Counter Strike Game Icons" it shows me all currently available elements for cs:go.
I´m sure as time passes they will add more elements and improve the current ones, since it´s still a beta. Oh and before I forget it. You can also add your own icons, like for example your friends faces you are going to execute the strat with!

I bet you will easily figure out yourself how the elements work since it's pretty simple and clear made. Let me just tell you real quick what you can do.

You can:
• Add Shapes (for example you mark zones, who should be covered by certain players)
• Add Lines (route for a player)
• Add Action Icons (CT, T, attack, defend, move, danger, jump boost, etc..)
• Add Equipment Icons (bomb, nades, guns, etc..)
• Rename every Icon and give it a Color (you can for example rename a T icon to your friends name and give it the color he has ingame)








And here is an example of how an a bombsite execution with smokes could look like on paper:



It may looks confusing at first, but just follow 1 player, for example blue and you will pretty easily identify what´s his job. And don´t forget, you can invite all your team members and create those strats in real-time together!

This may not be the right tool for every team, but it sure can help some teams a lot.
You can basically make a whole playbook, just like in American Football.

General:
• Added 2 new tools for creating elements! Free hand line and polygon. These allow for click and drag to create more free form shapes on your maps. You can find them in the add elements tab by the default elements section.
• Cleaned the UI for selected elements to improve visibility.
• Cleaned the elements on map list in the sidebar for better consistency.
• Playbooks!
• User Profiles!
• Text!
