Crush the Competition: Throw Grenades Like a Pro in PUBG Mobile

Master grenade throws in PUBG Mobile: learn cooking, bouncing and pre‑nading techniques that give you the edge over opponents every time.

The short answer

To throw grenades accurately in PUBG Mobile, cook the grenade just before release, aim for a 45‑degree angle and time your bounce to hit the target. Pre‑nading is best used when you need to land the grenade on a moving enemy or a hidden spot.

How does cooking a grenade affect its throw distance?

Cooking a grenade means holding the throw button until the very last moment before release. The longer you hold, the more distance the grenade travels, but you risk the fuse burning down if you hold too long. Practice by timing your throw so the grenade lands exactly where you want it, adjusting the hold time based on the distance to the target.

What is the best angle to bounce a grenade off a wall?

Aim for a moderate angle, usually around 45 degrees, to give the grenade enough lift while still maintaining speed. The surface of the wall matters: a flat wall will bounce the grenade in a predictable arc, while a sloped wall can send it in an unexpected direction. Experiment with different angles on various surfaces to learn how the bounce behaves in real matches.

When and how should you pre‑nade for maximum impact?

Pre‑nading is ideal when you want the grenade to detonate on a moving target or a hidden spot that you cannot see directly. Start the throw, then release the button a fraction of a second early so the grenade lands and explodes as the enemy passes. Timing is key: too early and the grenade will detonate before the target arrives; too late and it may miss the intended spot.

Common grenade‑throwing mistakes and how to fix them

Releasing the throw button too early causes the grenade to land short of the target. Not adjusting the cooking time for distance leads to inconsistent throws. Ignoring the bounce angle can result in the grenade missing the intended wall or landing in an unintended location.

Daily drills to sharpen your grenade skills

Set up a practice zone in a low‑traffic area and throw grenades at walls from different distances. Record the results and note how the grenade behaves when you vary the cooking time. Incorporate pre‑nading drills by aiming at moving targets or hidden corners to improve timing.

Pros and cons

Pros

Cooking a grenade lets you increase throw distance.
A 45-degree angle provides optimal lift and speed for wall bounces.
Pre‑nading can hit moving enemies or hidden spots you can't see.
Practicing in a low‑traffic zone helps you learn cooking time and bounce behavior.
Recording throws lets you track improvements and adjust technique.

Cons

Holding the throw too long may let the fuse burn out before impact.
Sloped walls cause unpredictable bounce directions.
Timing the release is difficult; too early or too late ruins the throw.
Ignoring bounce angle often results in missed walls or wrong landing spots.

Questions, answered

Can I throw a grenade from inside a vehicle?

Yes, you can throw a grenade while inside a vehicle, but you must exit the vehicle or use the vehicle’s throw mechanic, which has a slightly different timing.

Do grenades explode on impact or after a set time?

Grenades have a fuse that triggers a detonation a few seconds after being thrown, regardless of impact; you can detonate them early by releasing the throw button.

Is it legal to pre‑nade in PUBG Mobile?

Pre‑nading is a standard part of gameplay and is fully legal; it is often used strategically to catch opponents off‑guard.
