I recorded a short video guide on how to throw a CT support smoke on Inferno from arch to behind car on banana. I know I'm not going to be teaching the better players around here anything new but I saw this smoke used yesterday at Dreamhack as well as in a recent Hatton video on Youtube and operationl2p.com does NOT cover it for some reason, so I thought why not.
The idea of the smoke is when you're playing A and your teammates at B are expecting a Banana push but are out of smokes, you can throw this one over the roofs to cover and support them before starting your rotation.
Please let me know if me uploading these is not okay, I don't want to look like a spammer. Also, since I'm a Silver Elite Master scrub, please do let me know if any of my videos include false/bad information etc.

Didn't someone make the same smoke spot but from spawn? I recall seeing it on the reddits...

Interesting, that could work although I think it's more useful from Arch then from Spawn given the typical CT default stance on Inferno!
@XKCD No, the smoke ur thinking is for bottom of banana and it's to get somebody on car safely at the start of the round (especially an awp).
This one is for mid-round and lets you stall a B push from A site since it pops (ideally) by the cart which lets one person hold from spools/ct/oranges while he gets a rotation or whatever. Mostly useful if you are either stacking A, or if B players ran out of smokes and/or got picked.

Right, that is what it was.
Ah crap, didn't know that. Oh well - at least I think I do a better job explaining it, video with voiceover and actual points you can use to aim at, not just "a little bit over there". :p
Just made another one, this time it's a defensive CT smoke from Truck to Car. You can see Hatton on Youtube struggle to throw a similar smoke in his newest video and operationl2p.com also do not cover this, I hope it's not THAT well known.
Simple and useful to stop a Banana rush in my opinion. I try to throw it everytime when I play B on Inferno. It pops earlier and is safer (because you don't need to expose yourself to throw it at all) than just running up to car and right-clicking the smoke there.

Here's one last video for today. It's a cool and fairly long smoke on Inferno for T side. It's really useful if you're trying to rush mid to A and want to block off the right side (boiler/quad) of the top of mid in order to go around arch to the bombsite.
I've never seen anybody throw this smoke this way from that distance and just figured this method out myself, I'm sure there's other ways to throw the same thing but this seems to work fairly well and looks pretty cool in my opinion. Any thoughts?
