How to Draw
by Rube Goldberg

But I just learned both of the two jumpthrows I know within the last couple months, how can I smoke CT on Inferno and Mirage B and A sites respectively on T side for set takes now? :( :( :(

That's one of those things I never got into. I'm not sure what the emoticon means in context but where a grenade goes depends on the player momentum so at different points in the jump your grenade could end up in different places depending on when you throw it. So people made a script to jump and throw at some interval so it was consistent. I kind of got the point because you don't want your set smokes being all hosed up and retarded and working as convenient one way smokes for the opposition. because they're off or depending on them and then it turns out you're naked to some positions.

If your smokes aren't consistent enough to be jump thrown learn different smokes :/

ya i really can't see how a smoke that can't be thrown reliably by actually timing it correctly is necessary for the purity of the game.

How pure do you want your videogame to be really. To be honest I wouldn't object to targets in the sky you throw your smokes at to have them land in the right place. That seems less retarded than bouncing them off the skybox on purpose or shooting through the outside of the map like you can on inferno.

if you can't throw a smoke without computer aided precision, then you shouldn't throw the smoke. :shrug:

The cries of the dead are terrible indeed; you should try not to hear them.
It wasn't a top down decision, it was left to a player vote. Just your average sanctimonious CS:GO players removing jump throw binds for everyone because they don't use them personally. They are seen as unskilled, but honestly banning them is moronic because hitting a "perfect" jump throw every time is almost impossible, so all this does is limit the pool of available smokes, as some smokes require being thrown at the perfect apex of your jump, not just 95% there.

But still, who plays ESL? A buncha Germans that's who.

I think if they are going to put that much effort in they should raise the skybox and have you actually be able to lob grenades over walls in a non-retarded-buggy-video-game-like-manner

Obviously it's within the computer, but if a smoke is so finicky that you need a script ( a programmed if/then line of code, so in other words, computer assisted) to throw it in a specific frame of animation, and can't recreate it through player skill at timing, then you should use a different smoke.

The individual skill is obviously there for Fnatic, Flusha just needs more experience as an IGL.

This is how I see it. Fix Inferno(lower its skybox around CT) but everything else is fine.

lol @ people defending scripted actions in a competitive setting, using the justification that without removing player-skill through automation, a thing can't happen with 100% accuracy.

E: I can't hit headshots 100% of the time without an aimbot, banning aimbot is bullshit! It lowers the number of places I can go to get headshots in the game, removing tactics revolving around me hitting 100% headshots!
