When playing Counter-Strike 2, it is vital to throw accurate grenades at points where the opponent can come. For example, let's say a teammate is caught alone at point B. You should throw molotovs or nades accurately to gain them a little time. However, for this, you need to know all the points of the map by heart. In general, most professional CS2 players only memorize a few maps and try to play on those maps as much as possible.
Today, we will review de_thera, a map created by the community. There are tricks to throwing nades while playing on both the T and CT sides on the Thera map. In our article, we will show the best grenade areas for smoke, flashbang, molotov and CT sides. Without further ado, et's take a quick look at the details of our guide.
Best T Side Nades On Thera
We want to start the best nades shots for Thera with the T side. We have listed the best smoke and flash nades areas to be able to move to bomb areas more easily. First, you will start with smoke, then we will continue with flashbang and molotov.
T Side Smoke Lineups
T side smoke lineups on the Thera map will help you get your team to the bomb planting areas safely. Of course, we would like to remind you that you need to aim very well when throwing smoke nades. We will already share the bomb with you with all the fine details from each shooting point. If you are ready, let's start right away.
Plat from T Spawn
After you spawn in T base, you need to go up to the balcony with the blue door at the back. After you go up here, you will see another blue-domed building right in front of you. Aim your aim towards the last spike on the dome, then throw the smoke grenade with jump + left click. If you manage to throw the grenade accurately, you can easily advance to B side with your team.
B Doors from T Spawn
This is another smoke lineup that you can use to easily pass to the B side. To do this, you need to stand next to the mound at the top of the blue door stairs in the T spawn area. Then you will see a structure with 3 blue protrusions on the opposite side. After aiming at the soil/rock appearance in the middle of this structure, you can throw smoke nades with jump + left click. This smoke you throw will hit the front of B doors.
B Ramp from Outside B Tunnel
Since there are many entrances to the B side of the Thera map, you may need to throw more than one smoke nade. The smoke lineups we will talk about now will target the B ramp directly from the Outside B Tunnel.
For this lineup, first move to the corner on the right side of the small tunnel entrance on the B ramp. If you turn around and look ahead at this point, you will see a graffiti drawing at the top of the stairs. Focus on the letters at the top of the drawing and throw the smoke nade with the jump + left + right click combo, aiming for the bottom of the letter "Y".
B Stairs from Outside B Tunnel
We will talk about another point where you can enter the B side on the Thera map. This point is the B stairs used by the CT side. Terrorists can throw smoke nade here from the B tunnel exit to cut off access to the area. To do this, you need to come to the corner at the tunnel exit that we mentioned before. Then aim at the lip of the character on the right side of the graffiti drawing and throw the smoke nade with the jump + left click technique.
A Doors from Outside A
Now we will look at the smoke lineups that are necessary for terrorists to easily pass to the A side. For these lineups, proceed to the Outside A area in front of the T spawn and stand in front of the green street light. You will see a blue balcony railing in front of you. Aim for the point next to the wall with this blue railing and throw the smoke with the jump + left click technique. This thrown smoke will directly hit the front of the A doors.
Z from Outside A
There are two important points where terrorists can be in danger while passing to the A side. A side doors is one of them and we have already explained how to throw smoke nade there. Another point is the Z area. Since the Z area is narrow, we think that smoke nade should be thrown. For this, you should come to the stairs with purple flowers in the Outside A area. Then target the upper right end of the green leaf on the purple flowers and throw the nade with jump + left click.
Piano from Outside A
The CT side can easily observe the A side with a room containing a piano. At this point, as the T side, you need to throw smoke nade to the piano from the Outside A area. Otherwise, C4 can never be safely set up on the A side. Since it is a difficult nade shot, first come to the green street lamp in Outside A that we just mentioned and aim at the ceiling light at the entrance of the blue-doored building on the right in front of you. Then send the smoke to the enemy with the jump + left click combo.
A Conn from T Spawn
We are here with another challenging smoke nade shot that will be sent from the T spawn area. This shot directly targets the roof of the opponent in the A site. To do this, go down the small stairs in the T spawn area and come to the blue door. Then you will see a structure with 3 blue boards on its roof. Aim for the part close to the right side of the roof of this structure and throw the smoke nade with the W + jump + left click technique.
Window from T Spawn
Proceed to the area with the blue door where the small stairs are, which we mentioned in the previous location. Then look at the same building roof and aim at the middle part of the blue board and the rock piece in the middle and throw the smoke nade to the opponent with jump + left click.
CT from Outside A
If you want to target an area that has a direct exit to CT's A side, go to the corner of the lamppost in Outside A. Then you will see a tower-like structure in front of you. Look at the bells on top of the tower aim towards the sky just to the left of it and throw the smoke nade with jump + left click.
CT from Outside A
Under the title Piano from Outside A, we mentioned a green street lamp located in Outside A. Go to the front of this street lamp again and aim for the top right of the fence post in front of you. Then throw the smoke nade with the jump + left click combo. This smoke will directly close the CT side's A site transition point.
CT from Wine
There is a place with a wine cellar in site B. You will see a small window section at the top of this wine cellar. Lean your back to the wine barrels and aim at the line at the top of the window in front of you and throw the smoke nade by taking a step with just left click and the W key.
T Side Flashbang Lineups
Next on our Thera nades article is the flashbang lineups. In this section, we will talk about the most critical flashbang points used by terrorists.
Popflash for A Side
There is only one flashbang nade usage point on the Thera map that terrorists should pay attention to. This is ideal for blocking the vision of the CTs on the A side. To do this, you should approach the barrels in the Wine section at the back of the A side. You should see 2012 written on the barrel on the far left. Then approach the board in the middle of that barrel and after turning your back, aim at the window on the top. Finally, throw the flashbang to the A side with the left+right click technique.
T Side Molotov Lineups
We have now come to the final part of using nade for terrorists. Under this heading, we will talk about how you can use molotov effectively. There are 3 different molotov lineups for terrorists, covering the A and B sides. Let's not go into too much detail and take a closer look at these lineups.
B Main from Balcony
Terrorists can easily throw molotovs from the balcony in this section to B main. First, climb onto the wall on the balcony and approach the window on the right. Make sure you are standing at the far end of the wall and aim for the window and throw the molotov towards the middle of the frame with left click.
Balcony from Outside B
If you don't want the balcony to be taken by your opponents, we would like to talk about a very good molotov lineup. To do this, climb onto the stone from Outside B and stand in the corner. Then, aim for the lower part of the red brick in front of you and send the molotov with jump + left + right click. The molotov you throw will fall directly onto the balcony, so you can have an easier transition to B main.
A Site from Wine
If you want to make a precise molotov throw to the A site area, you can use the wine cellar in the B site. Stand in front of the barrels in the wine cellar and aim at the tip of the stone under the board under the window in front of you and throw the molotov nade with W + jump + left click. This molotov nade you throw will directly hit the C4 setup area of A site.
Best CT Side Nades On Thera
We think that CTs have a slight advantage on the Thera map. Of course, we make this conclusion after looking at CT's smoke lineups. Because terrorists don't have many options, especially when passing to the A site. If two players from the CT side close these passes with a good smoke or molotov, the team will gain serious time. If you want, let's take a closer look at the best CT side nades without further ado.
CT Side Smoke Lineups
First, we will take a look at the smoke lineups. The CT side has 8 or 9 different smoke lineups on the Thera map. In this section, we will explain them all to you one by one.
B Doors from CT Spawn
After starting the game in CT spawn, you will see red flowers on the edge of the wall. Stand behind the red flowers and aim at the road sign in front of you. You can throw smoke nade by jumping + left clicking from the top right corner of the sign. This smoke nade sent will directly hit B doors. B doors can be much more advantageous, especially with the smokes thrown by the CT side to the mid-pillar area. In short, if you have two people in your team who know smoke lineups, you can ambush terrorists very easily.
Mid Pillars from CT Spawn
The mid pillars location that we mentioned in the previous location is very close to the area where the Terrorists start the game. We think that you should throw smoke nade in this area, which is an ideal place especially for the transition to site B. To do this, approach the back of the red flowers at the CT spawn point again. Then, target the thorns on the right side of the blue-domed building standing directly in front of you. If you aim towards the top of the second of these thorns on the right side, you can throw smoke nade with 100% accuracy. At this point, we recommend that you throw smoke nade with jump + left click. The smoke nade you throw will fall directly to the mid-pillar area.
Top Mid from CT Spawn
Here is another smoke lineup that you can throw from the CT spawn area. This smoke shot directly targets the top mid-area. Right after you start the game, you will see an atm and a green sign on the left. Come to the edge in front of this green sign and aim for the middle of the 3rd and 4th spikes on the left of the domed building in front of you and throw the smoke nade with jump + left click. The smoke will directly hit the inside of the arched door in the top mid.
Top Mid from CT Spawn 2
We will talk about a second smoke lineup where you can target the top mid-area. For this lineup, you need to go back to the back of the red flowers we mentioned earlier. Then you should target the top of the cross sign on top of the blue-domed building in front of you and then throw the smoke nade with jump + left click.
A Conn from CT Spawn
A Conn, which is an area where terrorists can pass from the mid to A site, is very important. You can smoke this area directly from the CT spawn. To do this, you need to be behind the red flowers that we are constantly talking about. Then you should target the thorns on top of the blue-domed building again. This time, target the tip of the 3rd thorn on the left and send the smoke nade to the enemy with jump + left click. This smoke will directly cover a small area that is the transition to A conn, namely A site, with fog.
Underpass from Piano
CTs cannot clearly observe A site from the piano section. However, the underpass that they cannot see directly is in a very critical position. A smoke thrown here can relax CT players. To do this, enter the piano room and approach the wall on the left side of the blue door and target the upper corner of the shadow on the wall. Then turn to the window on the left side and target the right end of the small dark line and throw the smoke nade with left click. Although it is a very difficult throw, we think you will get used to it after a few practices. Also, please remember that terrorists can throw molotovs and smoke nade to this point.
A Long from CT Spawn
A long is an area where terrorists can move easily. We are here with a good smoke lineup to narrow this area. First, stand on the corner of the fire hydrant in front of the red flowers in the CT spawn. Then you will see a wall under the pink flowered roof in front of you and a blue star on top of that wall. You should target the center of this star and then throw the smoke nade with jump + left click.
A Doors from CT Spawn
A doors is undoubtedly one of the most important transition points for terrorists. At this point, CT players can throw smoke nade from exactly 3 areas. The first smoke lineup we will talk about is the red flowered area in front of the CT spawn. Position yourself behind the red flowers and focus on the black and yellow pole in front of the vehicle in front of you. If you target the upper left part of this small pole and send the smoke with jump + left click, you will directly target A doors. Frankly, the simplest smoke nade lineups targeting A doors are applied from this area. We think you can get used to it with a few simple practices.
A Doors from CT Spawn 2
Again A doors smoke lineups. This time you need to get behind the traffic sign in front of CT spawn. After getting behind the sign you will see a gate with iron bars in front of the vehicle. There is a small lamp-like circle on the upper right side of this door. After targeting the circle you can throw the smoke nade with jump + left click. However, since the circle you need to target is very small we recommend that you practice constantly. It is a difficult shot but not impossible.
A Doors from CT Spawn 3
We would like to talk about a third smoke nade lineup for A doors. This time you should go to the blue bus in the CT spawn area. Right in this area you will see a small seating area and a traffic sign. Go in front of the traffic sign and aim for the top window of the green-painted building right in front of you. Make sure you are looking at the top left corner of the window and throw the smoke nade towards A doors with jump + left click.
It is a very long shot so you have to make sure you aim well. A doors is one of the most used areas by terrorists. That is why we think at least one CT player should definitely throw smoke nade every turn.
CT Side Flashbang Lineups
Flashbang nade is generally used depending on the players' initiative and the action situation in the game. However, since the Thera map is in question, we want to talk about two different important locations. These locations are the areas where terrorists can infiltrate Site A and B. If you want to throw a quick ambush, we definitely recommend that you follow the flashbang lineups below.
B Main from B Ramp
When CT players move towards the B ramp section, they will see two warning signs. However, make sure you see the warning sign from the middle upper part of the B ramp. Then, observe these warning signs and aim towards the electric pole. After aiming at the middle part of the 3 devices in the middle part of the electric pole, throw the flashbang nade with left click. At this point, please make sure not to use the jump key. Otherwise, the flashbang will go to a much further point.
Wine from A Site
The wine cellar is a section that terrorists usually use to infiltrate A site. To support your friends here, you should come to the railing posts from A site. Make sure you are right in front of the window that opens to Wine. There is a green street lamp on the right side of this window. After you are in the required area, aim by centering the shadow of the window and throw the flashbang nade with jump + right click.
CT Side Molotov Lineups
CT site can use two different molotov lineups which are critical. Now we will tell you about these molotov nade launch points.
B Main from Balcony
We mentioned that terrorists use the same area to throw molotovs. Again, the same area can be used in CTs. You can throw the molotov nade by aiming at the middle part of the window frame from the edge of the balcony. The molotov you throw will directly hit the B main.
Wine from A Site
If you do not want the terrorists to pass through the wine cellar to site A, you need to throw the Molotov accurately. To do this, you should stand in front of the stairs on site A and aim at the middle of the window and throw the molotov nade with just left click. The molotov Nade you throw will fall directly into the middle of the wine.
We have now come to the end of our Thera Nades article with molotov lineups. We hope that you have learned all the Nade lineups on the map. We wish everyone enjoyable games and many winning matches in advance.
