The Most Iconic Choke Point in FPS History

Dust II A-Long is famous for brutal opening duels. Whoever crosses Long Doors first with effective utility earns complete control of the A site approach. Dry-peeking Long Doors against CT AWPers is suicide-mastering these two pop-flashes is mandatory.

The Undodgeable Over-Doors Pop-Flash (Thrown from T-Outside)

Stand Point: Wedge into the wooden barrel corner outside Long Doors.

Crosshair Alignment: Aim at the second tooth of the stone wall cornice above the door frame.

Execution: Running Jumpthrow

Detonation: Explodes in mid-air right behind the entrance arch. CT defenders holding from Corner or Pit have 0.15s to react before receiving full 3-second blindness.

Securing Pit with the Deep Molotov

Pair the flash with a running incendiary lobbed into Pit. The fire spreads across the low platform, forcing any hidden CT defender to scramble onto open ground right into your rifle crosshair.
