As a follow-up to my A-ramp guide (► youtu.be/G6n916AnvuQ ), here is how to play MID on Vertigo on both T- and CT-side. A lot of players still dislike playing Vertigo, so I hope these tips and tricks (including what I consider the *BEST FLASH* in the game ► 3:59) will help you enjoy the map more.

![NEVER LOSE BANANA with THIS DUO STRAT | CS2 afap
Feel like the weak incendiary grenade makes deep banana control too difficult? Try this duo strat, to abuse instant half-wall smokes, which outlive any early car molly. This allows you to use both incendiaries for the deep banana cubbies (tree & broom) and to initiate a surprise attack by flashing half-wall simultaneously with the half-wall smoke break HE (which also deals extra damage to anyone hiding close). The B rush is easily countered by the anti-rush nade, which deals 50+ dmg to the best T-spawn and slows them down in addition to the fallen flash as support. We tested this strat quite a few matches and player 1 going close to half-wall seems to work the best, as it dodges any sandbags mollies/HEs and lets you easily kill any Ts who are insane enough to disrespect the smoke.
Thanks to my friend pr1ce (@mrdasgenie1867), for coming up with this strat.

![Fast and easy OUTSIDE SMOKE WALL on Nuke (only 2 players needed) | CS afap
In my experience it can be difficult to coordinate 3 players to throw their smoke for the same smoke wall at the right time, especially in pugs. In this short video youll see how to smoke outside with just 2 players and an extra smoke, which youll ask a teammate to drop at spawn.
The intro clip was played by NaVi (Round 2):

![How to SILENT DROP in csgo (jump-bug, edge-bug, line-ups for various drop spots) | CS afap
Silently dropping can be achieved through various methods in csgo:
-) *Releasing crouch mid-air* allows to quietly drop from medium heights (like from crouching teammates heads).
-) *Jump-bug* (releasing crouch about 3 units above ground) allows to quietly drop from any height without losing health.
-) *Edge-bug* (landing on the very edge/last unit of an elevation/surface) allows to negate fall damage and damage sounds from any height, but is extremely difficult, except for the one line-up shown in this video.
-) *Surfing* against a tilted surface to slow the fall enough to negate damage and sound (for example: Nuke heaven to A site, Overpass heaven to water drop, ...)
-) Various line-ups to exploit *displacements* . There is no real recipe, as these vary from spot to spot (for example: Inferno second mid drop, Mirage ladder/window/B van drop, ...).
Credits to target_lox, a sub of mine who showed me some of these line-ups. Check out his channel here: https://vk.com/nirahkaz_official
