Counter-Strike 2 has changed how jump throws work, with Valve banning the traditional jumpthrow bind in 2024. Here's how to perform consistent jump throws manually.

What Is a Jump Throw? A jump throw is a technique for throwing grenades while jumping to reach specific spots on the map. It's crucial for executing precise smoke grenades in competitive play.
