While winning games in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive mainly comes down to clicking heads and planting bombs, learning to effectively use utility can really be the difference maker that propels you up the CS:GO ranks. However, simply lobbing utility around is one thing, but learning how to use it best to win you a round is another.

Knowing all the best grenade line-ups can be the thing that separates a successful bombsite execution from a CT-side spraydown, and many of those set-plays utilise what is known as the jump throw. Jump throws give extra power and height to your standard line-up throw, meaning that you can reach further distances and perform your throws from safer, more reliable angles.

Employing the jump throw can mean that you block off entry to a site before the T-side can get there, or deny a critical sightline for the CT-side AWP all from the safety of T-spawn. Furthermore, the bind specifically gives reliability and consistency to your throws, meaning that the jump and the throw actions are perfectly synchronized every time - you'll never disappoint your teammates with an out-of-bounds smoke again.
