This particular smoke was popularized by BIG’s Florian “syrsoN” Rische, but you’ll see many high ranked players employ it in important games. This will also allow the smoker to reach A short quicker, boosting overall team defence. The smoke will bloom right after the first shot, ensuring the teammate’s safety after the opening kill. Using this lineup, you can help your teammate with the closest long spawn equip an AWP and take the first peek.
If done properly, the grenade will land around long doors in time to preempt any T-side push. Press jump-bind and then throw the smoke. Aim the smoke grenade at the corners made by where the two buildings meet in the sightline, as shown in the image below. Roughly align your crosshair with the shadow’s corner (It doesn’t have to be perfect). It’s possible to do it without a boost if players can do some bunny hopping, but it’s much easier and more reliable to get the boost to short. Ideally, you’ll need the help of a teammate to boost you on A short near catwalk. This smoke lands on the double doors just in time, granting your teammates enough time to reach a defensible position. While counter-terrorists have a split-second edge when it comes to getting to the long doors, it’s better to have an airtight plan.Ī newly discovered long smoke is your best bet to contain a hard push by the terrorists.
Getting long control on Dust 2 can be an arduous task, as terrorists can sometimes reach the doors first, making defence impossible. Struggling to gain long control on Dust 2? Try this quick smoke that will halt enemy advances.
