How are you meant to play Controller Agents on Defense?

I'm trying to learn to play Astra and this is a question I've been thinking about. I know that on attack, you block off the entrances to the site so the other team can't see in. But I don't know how to do defense.

so if the attackers are going b i smoke b but if i smoke b when they're already in site wouldn't that be more beneficial for them?

if theyre already in you play retake you can also smoke out areas where the opponent may peak to kill a defuser for example b elbow on bind

if you hear many steps you can do two things, smoke + pull the enterence, or double smoke and try to pop up from an angle the enemy isnt expecting and try to trade for like 3 fades dont usually check far off corners i like placing fake smokes if the fade prowls my smokes astra wall is also really good
