Mirage is one of those CS2 maps where taking control of the Mid area becomes essential. However, with spots like the Mid Window area, taking mid-control at Mirage becomes particularly difficult for the terrorists. If you want to take mid-control faster, you need these Mirage Mid smoke lineups.
All Most Important Mirage Mid Smokes for T-Side
Mid Window From T Spawn
Let’s start with one of the most common spots where you might encounter an enemy AWPer. And if there is one holding this spot, any chances of you taking mid-control will tank down to 0. To smoke off that area, stand on the left side of the trash can in T Spawn and align your crosshair according to the image below. Finally, do a jump throw while holding the “D” key.
Mid Short From T Spawn
The problem with the Mid area in Mirage is that the enemy team’s AWPer has multiple angles to hold. The AWPer can rotate to another angle, like the Mid-Short area. To take care of that, you can use this lineup. Start by standing in the right corner of the trash can in T Spawn. After that, aim at the edge of the roof, as shown in the image below, and do a jump-throw.
Mid Cross From T Spawn
If you want to take positions with an AWP behind the Mid Boxes area, you’ll need to take care of the Mid Cross area. To smoke off the Mid Cross area, stand on the right side of the same trash can in the T Spawn area and then aim at the very tip of the TV antenna, as shown in the image below. After that, do a simple left-click throw.
Mid Connector From T Spawn
Once again, you have to stand at the same spot, to the right side of the trash can in the T Spawn area. After that, aim at the carpet hanging on the balcony in front of you and place your crosshair on the spot shown in the image below. Finally, do a jump-throw.
Ladder Room From T Spawn
Now, let’s talk about the Laddar Room area. As you might have guessed, you have to stand on the right side of the trash can in the T Spawn area. After that, aim at where the tip of the leaf on the roof and the wires above it intersect, as shown in the image below, and do a jump throw.
Conclusion
There’s no easier way to take mid-control on Mirage and block almost all enemy AWPers than smoking them off through a few calculated smoke lineups. Fortunately, you now know exactly how to do that. Before testing any of the lineups above, make sure to test them out in a practice match. For more Mirage smokes, check this page.
