Since joining the ever-growing lineup of agents in VALORANT, Deadlock has continued to divide fans' opinions, with their abilities creating quite the drama depending on how advanced you are at the game.
Having become a menace at low-elo ranks, but not so much in the upper echelons and pro play due to savvy, yet easy-to-execute, counters being found, Deadlock's place within the agent popularity scales has yet to be determined.
However, you might start seeing an increase in their pick rates though, alongside Jett, as the pairing has completely broken the map Fracture.
Deadlock and Jett have completely broken Fracture in VALORANT
Having already broken some maps with the ability to shoot through walls, Deadlock has now become even more broken as she has been found to boost Jett through walls and floors on Fracture. This allows the Duelist to hold down the entire right side (defence) of the map.
Shown on Reddit, Deadlock can use the Barrier Mesh ability to block the zipline path, obstructing Jett, who will then be prompted to have a "press F to dismount" cue. Using this, she can boost up through the walls and see through the entire right side of the map.
Jett can then shoot through the floor and hold down the A bomb site, while being impossible to kill. As Jett has a pretty lowly pick rate, we'd definitely think twice about using her in your next VALORANT match.
Deadlock and Jett combination continues to exploit VALORANT maps
The pair had been found to be a solid combination previously, as together they could boost into some indifferent line of sights, such as on top of crates on Haven.
Fortunately, this specific exploit takes quite a long time to execute and requires you to be in one of the most open space in the game for a substantial period, meaning its unlikely to be plaguing Ranked lobbies too much, unless you find yourself in a 2v2 situation with both agents alive.
It's not yet clear to see if Jett can escape the place either, so a swift exit to the other side of the map could be a hard counter too.
