Smoke gernade
Consumable item
Cost:300

If you may be thinking:This consumable item is too expensive I should not buy it...well your wrong

Active:Throw a smoke gernade at your target direction.

After the smoke gernade reaches its destination then it will expload creating smoke nearby

The smoke can be seen even if the enemy has no vishion around it

The smoke acts like a bush

The smoke can be seen even while in a bush

If the smoke is in a bush then it will smoke the whole bush and parts around it

The smoke can not be cut off from walls meening you have a smoke from two sides at a time

While in the smoke you cannot see unless a unit is in the smoke too. You can only see units who enter the smoke if your in the smoke

The smoke can block vishion(for example if you have 3 smokes and you block the part of jungle shop to the part of kraken then you just block a wall of vishion

Smokes last for 10 seconds(if in bush it instead last for 15 seconds)

Even if an enemy attacks while in the smoke(cannot aa because they cant see only abilitys)the enemy is still not visable until they leave the smoke.

Attacking behind the smoke while not in it and attacking a enemy behind the smoke then you and the enemy will be reveal

If a flaregun is on top of the smoke then it wont reveal enemys inside the smoke(same thing goes with scouttraps)

Tactics:
Forceing a disengage with a smoke or pushing the enemy jungle
Throw a flaregun at an bush you think the enemy is in. If they are in throw a smoke gernade at them. This will neglet there vishion if they are in since it blinds enemy who is in the bush and the blind stops if they leave the smoke or smoke is over. But nobody wants to be in a smoke. This tactic is very useful is the enemy is planning to do a teamfight or if you want to take a part of the enemy jungle.

Forceing an engage with a smoke
Know where the enemy are. If you know where they are caculate where you are going to smoke and throw the gernade nearby you so you can walk in it first. If you think they are in the same area then you are able to charge.

Escapeing with an smoke
If you are being chased by multiple people in the jungle then throw all your smokes at random directions. If you dont have any try going to the jungle shop. Remember since it is a consumable item you can hold up to 5 smokes. After you throw all your smokes dont go in to one of the smokes but go to an area where you did not throw any smokes. This tactic can trick your enemy into thinking you went to recall while in a smoke.

This is really cool! I would love to see this in game as it can create great escapes! But isn't not being able to attack while in smoke kind of defeat the purpose? You couldn't ambush very well and you can't be reveled with scout traps, making every one just sit there until it dissipates unless your Koshka and some others.
Also I got an idea from this smoke bomb and incorporated it into one of Slyiths abilities, so thanks!
