The question

What is Sova's next move?

Explanation (spoiler)

The situation is a 4v2 in Sova (s0m)'s favor. s0m gets a spam kill through smoke at [0:12] and quickly repositions to A site connector to drone.

The only way the enemy wins is if they are able to get free 1v1's.

Therefore, because s0m is on the weak side (he is alone in A link, 2 of his team mates are coming from B main, and 1 of his team mate is in C link, all he needs to do is to get info and contain the enemy and not take a 1v1.

If s0m drones from behind the box, there is a risk of dying if there is an enemy in the smoke.

Every answer other than falling back to A site connector would leave s0m open to an enemy 1v1.
