How de_nuke plays
de_nuke is a Bomb Defusal map. Buy at the start of the round, take map control toward a bombsite, and either plant and defend the C4 or rotate to defuse. A planted bomb detonates in 45 seconds; a defuse kit halves your defuse time. On Combat Skirmish it runs directly in your browser through WebAssembly — click Play and you are dropped straight onto a live public server, no Steam account or download required.

Tips for de_nuke
The map is two sites stacked vertically, which means rotations are seconds, not tens of seconds — a fast lower take punishes CTs who committed upstairs. Vent control is the hidden battle: it is the only route that skips the ramp fight entirely. CTs who never check it lose rounds they never saw coming.
