lineup
What does lineup mean?
A precise position and crosshair placement you learn by heart so an ability lands exactly where you want it, often blind. Stand on the mark, aim at the reference, fire. Big in Valorant for molly and ult lineups onto the spike.
"I've got a KAY/O knife lineup from spawn that hits the whole A site, line it up and they can't defuse."
Origin
From tactical shooters, popularized by Valorant's ability economy where players memorize exact throw positions.
Frequently asked questions
Is a lineup the same as a smoke spot?
Related but not identical. A smoke spot is just where the smoke lands; a lineup is the full recipe — exact stance plus aim point — to land any ability blind from range.
