Team Spirit players have shared their thoughts on Valve's decision to replace Overpass with Cache in the Active Duty map pool. The change will take effect with the launch of Premier Season 5 in July, bringing Cache back to competitive Counter-Strike 2.
Danil "donk" Kryshkovets welcomed the update and admitted he was happy to see Overpass removed, although he would have preferred a different map to leave the pool.
"It's a great update. I'm happy they removed Overpass. I'd rather they removed Inferno, of course, but this works too. I just didn't like Overpass."
Dmitry "sh1ro" Sokolov believes the change makes sense both for the community and for Spirit, as Overpass had not been one of the team's strongest maps recently.
"Overpass never really clicked with either the community or competitive play. It also wasn't one of our stronger maps in recent officials. So I think Cache is great. I played it a lot when I started my career, so I don't think it'll be a problem."
Myroslav "zont1x" Plakhotia also welcomed Cache's return despite many current professionals having little or no experience on the map.
"I like Cache, even though most players don't have any pro experience on it. Personally, I would've preferred a different map to be removed instead of Overpass."
Boris "magixx" Vorobyev had a positive reaction as well, recalling his time playing the map on FACEIT.
"I think Cache is awesome. It used to be one of the best maps to play on FACEIT. I like it overall. I don't really care which map got removed."

Ivan "tn1R" Kochugov added that Spirit's weakest map leaving the pool is a welcome change.
"I like the new map pool and the fact that Overpass is gone because it was our weakest map."
Cache officially replaces Overpass in the Active Duty map pool and will become available in Premier mode with the launch of Counter-Strike 2 Premier Season 5 in July.
