The full version of Counter-Strike 2 may have only just been released, but fans of the game have already found a hundred and one features on different maps of the competitive map pool. If you want to get better at the game, you should definitely check out this material because these features can win you entire matches.
After all, to beat your opponents, it's not necessary to be the fastest or the most accurate; in fact, a little cunning is enough.
Especially for the readers of bo3.gg, we have collected the top 10 most useful features in Counter-Strike 2 for you.
One-way smoke into a window
With the release of CS2, Valve completely changed the mechanics of smokes, which led to the disappearance of the legendary one-way smokes on various maps.
But, by changing the smoke mechanics and adding a new feature with a fragmentation grenade that can blow up smoke screens, the interest in finding new one-way smokes remains huge.
And here we present to you a one-way smoke into a window that will surely surprise your opponents. It works like this:
1. You need to stand by the Window in such a way that you are braced against a wooden object as shown in the photo.
2. The next step will be to throw the smoke grenade itself, having aimed at the white corner of the cardboard underfoot, thereby you will already block the view from the window.
It is important to note that this smoke does not 100% cover the window but only makes it look like it does.
3. Then simply throw a HE grenade, as shown in the photo. The main feature of this combination is that the HE grenade will not harm you, but the smoke will dissipate
And here's how it all works from both sides. From the side of the terrorists, who are attacking Mid:
Your first-person view:
This gives you 3 seconds to gather the necessary information about the enemies at the centre of the map, and also try to get one, or even two kills. The main thing is to not get carried away and to try not to kill everyone. As soon as the smoke explodes your opponents will try to kill you.
Boost on Overpass to view Heaven
We all remember that very legendary boost in CS:GO in the Overpass Terrorists' Spawn to view Heaven. At that time, you would have needed four players for this boost. But times change and everything becomes much simpler.
In Counter-Strike 2, to boost to view Heaven, you only need two players! How to do this is shown below:
1. First of all, you should put your friend as shown in the photo so that he stands on the last trash bag.
2. Then you just need to jump on him and move as far right as possible and voila, you have the perfect boost to look at Heaven in a couple of seconds.
Of course, it's better to use exactly in combination with a sniper rifle, to make it easier to aim at your opponent. And here's how your opponent sees you:
Of course, your head sticks out, but believe us, you will not be noticed, because the focus of attention of the players does not go to the place where the train passes.
Grenades from banana to B site
Not deviating from the topic of Overpass, we cannot fail to tell you about a quality grenade spread from Banana to Bomb Site B.
With the advent of the revamped Overpass, it is now possible to give grenades to B site through the grass on Banana.
Imagine the situation: you are on Banana, your opponents have decided to enter Bomb Site B, and your teammates do not have a Molotov cocktail to slightly delay the entry. Don’t worry though, Molotovs for Short and Monster have already been developed for situations like these.
First, we'll discuss the Molotov for Short. It is thrown quite simply, all you need to do is:
1. Approximately align yourself as shown in the photo below.
2. Visually deflect the sight along the line of the lamp and aim approximately in the middle of the greenery.
3. After all the preparatory operations, take one step forward with a left click throw so that our Molotov flies right under the opponent's feet.
With the help of a friend, you can throw a Molotov towards Monster. Here's how to do it:
1. First, ask your friend to stand as shown in the photo.
2. After that, you just need to climb on him, aim at the wall as shown in the photo, make a run boost and throw the Molotov with a jump throw.
The ready-made Molotov for Monster lands like this:
Fake grenades on B from Banana
Now let's talk about fake grenades from Banana to B site for the Terrorist side. There are actually a bunch of variations, but we will show you the best ones, namely a Molotov for Water and two smoke grenades that fly to the Bridge and into the site itself.
In fact, smoking on the Bridge and into the site are the main grenades for entering point B, which makes our fake smokes even more plausible.
Let's start with the Molotov for Water. Everything is quite simple:
1. To begin with, you should stand in this corner:
2. Then aim just above the pipe and take a single step alongside a jump throw to throw this Molotov.
The result of the Molotov is provided below:
Now let's talk about the smokes.
1. To begin with, as always, you need to choose the right angle, namely this one:
2. Then you need to roughly aim your crosshair as shown in the photo and left-click throw throw the grenade:
And here's your smoke on the Bridge ready:
Right from the same position, you can quickly smoke on the site, all you need is to just aim as shown in the photo. It is not necessary to observe every pixel here, but you should aim roughly in the indicated area.
And here's what kind of smoke curtain you get:
The only thing you should be more careful of is opponents from Banana. But such grenades are best thrown when your teammates are already standing in Toilets and ready to exit to an empty Bomb Site A.
Every inch of the Nuke map is some kind of feature
Nuke is famous for requiring more teamwork from players. The one who has something to surprise their opponents with wins on the map! That's why we will show you how to throw a Molotov cocktail under your feet and not burn in it, as well as how to make a wall of smoke on the Outside portion of the map using just two smoke grenades.
Let's start with the push lobby into the Molotov. There are situations when you really want to squeeze Lobby, and you want to do it as efficiently as possible. To do this, standing on the booth, you can throw an incendiary grenade, which will burn behind the door and not cause you damage.
The main advantage of this grenade is that your opponents will think that there is fire in the booth and no one will run out from there now.
For this Molotov, you need to aim like this:
And here's what we get:
And now the smokes for the Terrorist side that builds a wall of smoke:
1. The first smoke is thrown from the left side of the car. You need to aim at the top right corner of the second window:
2. After that, with a jump throw, throw the smoke.
The second smoke is thrown from these gates and you need to aim at the reactor itself, as shown in the photo, and also use a jump throw:
After that, you get a perfect smoke wall on the street. It's flawless, without a single hole, and allows you to safely go into Secret. Just hope that your enemies don’t dissipate the smokes with a HE.
What's wrong with defuse kits?
Grenades are of course super, but let's talk about the little things that can save you a round.
Now a player who has a defuser will defuse the bomb with green and blue wires, but without a defuser the wires will be yellow-blue.
Smoke screens have different colours depending on the side that threw the smoke. The smoke from the Terrorist side is of a yellowish colour, while the one from the Counter-Terroristside has a bluish tint.
Below is an example of a smoke thrown by a Terrorist and by a Counter-Terrorist.
Now it will be much easier for you to understand who has thrown a smoke if your teammates didn't communicate that they were throwing one.
Such various features and tricks in CS2 can bring great benefits to your competitive games and both simplify and amplify your game. If your goal is to break through to the very heights of esports, knowing the features is one of the first indicators of what distinguishes a good player from a bad one! Good luck in your next games!
