How the actual hell do I play icebox in low elo?

I’m currently bronze 2 trying to get gold, and I can not for the life me even attempt to preform well on icebox

I play solo queue mostly, and without fail, 100% of the time, no exceptions, my entire team gets absolutely schmucked on this map, especially on defender side

I find myself sitting in a corner on A site a majority of the matches because enemies ALWAYS attack A, and just walk up top and get a pick then walk right onto site and destroy my entire team

How do I play this map? When I’m not in a corner waiting for someone to walk by, I usually try to flank and get picks, which works sometimes, but it seems most of my teammates die so quick every round

I find it next to impossible to do anything on this map. Whenever I’m watching the 900 angles in front of me there is always 842 more angles that the enemies are chillin in ready to destroy me.

It seems I need the best aim on planet earth that gets only one tap headshots every time I click Or else I can’t even come remotely close to winning a game here.

What am I doing wrong? When enemies have high ground I either get one tapped before even noticing because I’m watching elsewhere, or I fall back and wait only for my entire team to die before the enemy even pushes onto site

I don’t have any problems in any other maps. It seems every single player in my elo is totally comfortable on the other maps and every game feels somewhat fair on those maps. But whenever it’s icebox it’s as if I’m playing 100T all on adderall after they just had a team meeting discussing the 1,467 new angles they just discovered on Icebox

Any decent guides on YouTube? Any basic tips to win more games on the map? Feels so hard to climb when there is one map that is guaranteed loss for me unless I get a lucky team to hard carry, or the enemy has an AFK. Pretty sure the only games I’ve ever won on this map were due to enemy AFK.
