When a smoke grenade is tossed in Free Fire, it affects the surrounding visibility. The auto-aim feature is disabled. Players who are not used to aiming manually might be caught off-guard and ambushed. However, if the scope is enabled, the deployer will target enemies quickly and accurately.


2) Use smoke grenades to assist the squad

Smoke grenades are critically important in squad situations. The fastest way to escape, find cover, and revive teammates is to throw a grenade and fill the screen with smoke. While the enemies recover from the confusion, players can escape towards a more solid cover or ambush the confused opponents.


3) Use Smoke grenades with Gloo wall

Ambushing the passive players who camp can be easier with smoke grenades and gloo walls. Tossing in smoke grenades from a window can lure the enemies out of the shelter.

Alternatively, players can throw a smoke grenade, block the exits with gloo walls, and ambush the enemies inside. The gloo walls can be used to get closer to the opponent.

In squad scenarios, one of the squad members can snipe at the campers from a distance and cover teammates.


4) Planning escapades
