Valve's April 28 rework of Cache, adding the fan-favorite map to Competitive, Casual, Deathmatch, and Retakes modes, has intensified speculation about its entry into the CS2 Active Duty map pool—currently Ancient, Anubis, Dust II, Inferno, Mirage, Nuke, and Overpass—necessitating a removal ahead of the next Premier season. Unchanged since January's Anubis-for-Train rotation, the pool reflects Valve's biannual tweaks based on pro pick/ban data and balance feedback, with pros like m0NESY advocating Inferno's exit and OverDrive targeting Ancient or Overpass. No official announcement has emerged in the past two weeks amid declining player counts post-Cache hype, leaving trader consensus hinging on Valve's opaque seasonal reset timing before June 30.
