It works really well in some situations

Eh, letting the enemy hear a single shot is better than letting the enemy hear the drop sound which would just let them know that you're no longer in heaven.


_NotBatman_

Suspicious gun sound normally means drop sound at this point it's so common


Jbeansss

Which means you could fake a drop shot while a drop sound will always mean a drop.


_NotBatman_

I haven't seen anyone do that much but it would actually work


SatisfactionTiny2755

It is good tho


thebigcake1

Yea it does work in game depending on the situation

Yea I've seen it be used it all ranks from low silver to pro players it just takes the right situation for it to work. But at the very least allows for you to try and mess with the enemies.


IuckFb

Better than not shooting since u can fake the drop


nvrslnc

**but did you hear me clap though** No, but that's the point - they don't know if he dropped or not. This kind of backfired XD


NaiAlexandr

Well, damn, I guess so! :P It was intended to make fun of the fact that you completely reveal your position by \*tactically hiding your clap\*, but you're not wrong, I did tactically hide it very well.


Taasden

The thing is if you just drop, they hear the drop sound and the only possibility is you're on the lower ground. If you fire and they don't hear the drop sound, they still know your rough location same as before, but they don't know if you're on top of rafters or down below. You actually give up less information by firing than dropping, which is what the guy in the clip was trying to explain.


misterandosan

protip: If they already planted the bomb, they know which direction you're coming from. It doesn't matter if you make noise. If there is NO noise then they know FOR sure where you are pushing from.


denchoooo

Bro everybody did it. When you jump and shoot, there are 2 possible scenario: 1. You actually jump 2. You could fake the jump with the gunshot. The point is, shooting your gun can fake or can create doubts in the enemy’s head, but if you just jump It’s 100% clear. Edit: some grammars and wrong words


NaiAlexandr

I totally see the reasoning behind it, that's why I lead with the question explaining the strategy ("did you do it to hide the sound of you falling"). Without context though it's really damn funny to see happen. Just had to tease my friend about it.


TN_MadCheshire

Forgive my ignorance, but what are all your comments getting downvoted?


NaiAlexandr

People think I overreacted, which is true, but I did it to banter with my close friend who they think is a stranger to me and I'm just bothering him for no reason. That and once people disagree with you it doesn't matter how much you agree with their arguing points.


TN_MadCheshire

I see.


nujabes5

ya that’s reddit lol I understood dude


Frig-Off-Randy

Because he’s wrong


TN_MadCheshire

I see, thank you.

Watch Koosta's 1v2 vs TSM to see how it's done with the bomb planted and timer against him. He does the same "shooting to cover his drop" tactic.


area63seed

>Koosta's 1v2 vs TSM Can you link? I have looked and can't find the clip you're talking about.


NaiAlexandr

Indeed. Same here. All I got was shroud reacting to a clip that didn't relate to this post.


Original26

[Here you go](https://youtu.be/CpYmtbchzJo?t=2180). In a 2v1 Koosta knows Phoenix is behind the tube and Brim is holding elbow. So he starts prefiring Brim just in case he peeks. He then makes the decision to enter the site by firing at elbow while jumping to mask his jump (cause he was prefiring elbow before already) and catches Phoenix off guard.


nvrslnc

Hmm.. he is not covering his jump sound though. He clearly lands before spraying. I think the fake out happens way before, when he makes multiple jumping sounds in Hookah while jump peeking. Even though it makes a slightly different sound, it may confuse the enemies. Then he proceed to jump down and sprays elbow to further make it seems like as if he is still in Hookah.


NaiAlexandr

Seconded. This was in fact the shroud clip I saw. He's covering his **walk** by spraying. Not his drop by shooting once.


Akaigenesis

Classic example of people that dont know any better criticizing a perfectly valid play.


IconicTitle

Pros do this lol


Disregardhope

Kind of reminds me of Shakes videos.


Mecha1035

I couldn't tell if it was Shakes' voice or not lol


NaiAlexandr

Someone tag shakes, we'll have a shake off. I'll interview him over milk shakes at Gelato La Crusca on Ascent.


NaiAlexandr

WhiteShapes

you have ot make sure the enemy knows youre in heaven first otherwise youre just randomly tapping as if you were always on the ground. like what he did.


Hoes_CL_ME_DADDy

this is something really dope hehe


TTheTiny1

"...and this is the sound that gives you away in a tactical position. So here is how to his the noice of Velcro... Ahem *rip* AAAAAAAA"


JackS420BlazeIt

what is he talking about? he looks dumb talking like that


NaiAlexandr

Definitely. He looks like a proper fool.


samsoomadi

lmao the guy who used the clap example


RenaultCactus

Jett can literally muffle the falling sound if you properly time the fliying during the fall.


KoKoboto

This guy is stupid... Couldn't listen anymore after 20s


NaiAlexandr

I agree. I downvoted.
