First use of tactical decoy in pro play


in round 4 of yesterday's M80 – G2 ancient game s1n bought negev, bought decoy, threw decoy lineup from spawn to ancient b site/cave, sold negev, bought ak.

if all 5 Ts did that – that noise from 5 negev decoys all blasting in one area could contribute to a strat – it can either cover your own stampede/rush OR at least deny info/ sow doubt into CTs & make them think twice whether they heard anything on B or not. so either covering your own plays or denying info that would make CTs to stay longer at B/not rotate to other spots / not make plays towards taking b, cave ctrl or mid – imo this could work as a part of some strat

  1. If you’re an awper who likes to spam smokes, you can give decoys for site anchors to drop near smokes. That way you can make Ts paranoid of crossing smokes or rotating because they’re unsure of where the awper is.

  2. Decoys have been used successfully in pro play far before this

  3. watch them patch it by not allowing you to refund/buy if you’ve already used a nade

  4. Impressive, I’ve only seen decoys used as fake flashes before in pro play
