Do you struggle at Attack/Defense style capture the flag (CTF)? Have you ever wondered how top teams can automatically steal tons and tons of flags and defend against attacks?

We will show you how we play Attack/Defense, what tools we use, our cursed strategies, and we will share some cool stories from our experience in major events like DEF CON CTF.
