How to Throw Grenades in CS:GO

Not all grenades are about direct damage, folks. Smokes and flashes can turn the tide without touching the enemy. Proper usage is key. Map awareness and timing are everything. Happy throwing!

Throwing grenades in CS:GO is super easy once you get the hang of it! First up, you gotta have one in your inventory. Hit the number key associated with the grenade (like 4 for HE grenade, 5 for Flashbang, etc.). Now, to actually throw it, left-click to throw it far, right-click to lob it gently, and both clicks together for a medium-distance throw. Remember, practice makes perfect. Each map has its own sweet spots for grenade throws, so hop into a custom game and start experimenting!

Quick tip: Movement affects your grenade throw. Running forward adds distance, while walking backwards reduces it. Use this to fine-tune those perfect throws that win rounds.
