Sometimes, defending is the best strategy than attacking. In such cases, causing a distraction or making the enemy lose his line of sight can be a better strategy. This is where the smoke grenades play their role. To practice smokes comfortably, all you need is a private map with some bots. But first, make sure you have your Developer Console enabled. Here’s how to do it:

• Open Settings → Click on the Game tab → Find the Enable Developer Console (~) and select Yes.

    Type mp_restartgame 1– Restarts the game immediately.
