Counterstrike: Source Smoke Grenade Guide

Today I have written a small guide to better using smoke grenades to improve your source tactics.



Smoke Grenades Guide

Price: 300

Smoke grenades are buyable equipment that are thrown just like any other grenade in source. Once thrown, the grenade will release a smoke cloud around the landing spot. This cloud can provide cover for you to run across a hallway or corridor which may be watched by the enemy. Smoke grenades do no damage to any entity in source, but can be useful in the right situation. Be aware that enemies still can shoot you through the smoke, but the smoke grenade makes it near impossible to see your character. Smoke grenades are primarily a defensive tool.


Example Situation: You want to run across this hallway, but the corridor to your right is being watched.

Simply place a smoke grenade in the corridor to prevent the enemy from being able to see you.

Easy right? The smoke grenade is a very easy tool to use, but there is still a wrong way to use it. DO NOT THROW A SMOKE GRENADE AT THE ENEMY! Anyone standing within the smoke cloud is able to see through it, such as this.

Because of this it is possible to actually place a smoke grenade beneath yourself if you are defending a location. A common example is sometimes players will place a smoke grenade on a bombsite after the bomb has been planted. This makes it harder for the enemy to quickly find the bomb, and allows you to hide near the bomb to better defend it.

Hopefully, this guide has given you a better understanding and ideas on successfully incorporating smoke grenades into your source game.
