In any good strategy in CS2, taking mid-control should be one of the major considerations. If you were having trouble doing that on Dust 2, you’re at the right place. Here are some of our picks for the best smoke lineups that you can use to take mid-control on Dust 2.
All Most Important Dust 2 Mid Smokes for T-Side
Mid Suicide From A Ninja Box
For the first one, let’s start with a smoke lineup for the CT Side. To use it, first, stand next to the blue bags right behind the plant area of A Site. After that, align your crosshair based on the image below and then do a W+ jump-throw.
Mid Catwalk From Outside Long
This particular smoke lineup will be useful when you need to push toward the A Site from A Short without dealing with the AWPers holding from Mid Doors. To use it, start by standing on top of the wooden crates in the corner of the area right behind the Double Doors. After that, aim at the edge of the wall, as shown below, and do a jump-throw.
Mid Doors From T Spawn
If you want to smoke off the Mid Doors while having visual across the A Short area, then you’ll need to use this smoke lineup. Start by standing in front of the wall in the T Spawn area, as shown below. After that, aim slightly above the mark on the wall in front of you, also as shown below. Finally, do a jump-throw.
Mid CT From Mid XBox
Now, let’s say you have made your way to the Mid area and want to push toward B Site. Use this lineup so no one holding the CT Spawn area can see you. To use it, stand in the corner of the XBox, place your crosshair on the mark on the wall above the Lower Tunnel entrance, as shown below, and do a left-click throw.
Mid XBox From T Spawn
Keeping the best for last, let’s talk about one of the most popular smoke lineups you can use for the Mid area in Dust 2, which is for the XBox. Stand at the edge of the wall in the T Spawn area and align your crosshair in the lower left portion of the window on the wall in front of you, as shown in the image below. Finally, do a jump-throw.
