Mastering Nuke smokes in Counter-Strike 2 is crucial for both attacking and defending strategies. Here's a comprehensive guide to the most effective smoke lineups.

T-Side Smokes

1. Red Container Smoke

• Purpose: Blocks A site to outside sightlines
• Execution: Stand at T spawn, aim at red container spot, throw

2. Red Wall Double Smoke

• First smoke: Jump throw at right-most window above red container
• Second smoke: Same position, aim at railing start
• Creates complete vision block for outside control

3. A Main Outside

• Blocks CT vision from A main
• Stand near outside box, aim at designated A main spot

4. Garage Control

• Purpose: Prevents aggressive CT garage plays
• Stand T spawn, aim at left window, jump throw

5. A Main Inside

• Blocks CT vision from inside A site
• Position on building near A main, aim at marked spot

CT-Side Smokes

1. Under Silo

• Denies T entry to A site
• Simple lineup from under silo position

2. T Red

• Disrupts early T outside control
• Throw from CT spawn towards blue container

3. Trophy Room

• Controls ramp pushes
• Stand near ramp, aim at trophy entrance

Essential Molotovs

1. Hut Molotov

• Delays A site rushes
• Throw from entry point towards silos

2. Squeaky Molotov

• Prevents door rushes
• Execute from A site, aim at small containers

Quick Tips:

• Practice smoke lineups with infinite grenades using "sv_infinite_ammo 1"
• Use "noclip" command for easier practice navigation
• Mini smoke: Throw from T Red, aim at roof corner
• Enable developer console for practice commands
• Set "mp_roundtime_defuse 60" for extended practice time

These lineups, when mastered, provide essential map control and strategic advantages for both T and CT sides on Nuke.
