not sure but if you tap screenshot very quickly, it produces fps lag which causes smoke disappear to you.

basically, if you can produce a certain amount of lag at the moment the smoke deploys, it goes underneath the map and disappears, but it's rather obvious if you do it imo.

How soon is it? is it when the bullet hits you or when your pov gets into spec mode...

Like if you lose a firefight you cant say "2 guys orphanage" instantly after you die?

I can't see CB changing rules midway through, even though at least 7 of the last 8 teams want it back...
