Best Deadlock Lineups On Split
Deadlock has been growing in playrate in both ranked and high level professional scene, this is due to her ability to create unique plays that are defensive yet aggressive if needed. Speaking of aggressiveness, here we will show you the best GravNet ( C ) and ultimate lineups on Split:
GravNet Lineups
A Site
Usage: Starting on A site, your execute on attack is either to push site very quickly or take ramps control. In case it’s the second, you can help your dashing or satcheling duelist by using this lineup which will hit anyone playing there.
Where to stand: To do it, you want to come over to the flower pot in front of the “Crown Cofffee” on A main, and aim your crosshair at the 5th line of the tall building as shown. Then, throw your gravnet.
Usage: Another incredibly useful lineup for A site is this one that hits elbow. This makes it very difficult for defenders to play in that spot as you can nade it in combination and this will give you an easy entry for site. It also helps you focus on less angles.
Where to stand: To do this lineup, you have to be in the same position on the last except this time you need to jump on top of the flower pot. Then, aim your crosshair at this spot and do a jumping throw.
B Site
Usage: Over to B site, this lineup is unmatched. Especially if you pair it with a nade or any form of molly, this is an easy kill on anyone playing back site on B. Here’s how to do it:
Where to stand: For your position you don’t really have to be in a pixel perfect spot, just stand around the spot shown earlier and aim your crosshair like in the picture. Do a jumping throw.
Ultimate Lineups
A Site
Usage: When you use your ultimate as deadlock, enemies that are close to you or know you could hit them are the ones to reposition. This ultimate however, you don’t even need to be close to the one you want to capture making it very unpredictable.
Where to stand: Go anywhere on A main and make sure you’re safe from enemies, aim your ultimate just at the roof of A heaven. And then, shoot it and it’ll capture any player there.
Deadlock Pro Tips
- Remember that using your wall ability, each section can be broken separately and it can be done in less time than breaking it all at once. This means enemies can break one section quickly to pass through, being aware of this helps you predict upcoming danger.
- The audio sensor activates whenever a player produces an audio cue, this means if you place it for flank and enemies shift or slowly walk through it they will be completely undetected. Deadlock is weak when it comes to setting traps for flank as it can get dodged.
- GravNet (C) which is the ability that allows you to force crouch enemies can be canceled in some circumstances like an Omen teleporting or such. Don’t expect enemies to stay crouched after casting a certain ability.
- Enemies can easily dodge the sound sensors when they know where it is placed on site, meaning you should always re-arrange your setups and add your touch to the given setups in order to maximize the agent’s efficiency.
- Deadlock’s ultimate can bounce off walls to get to a desired position, so in case you had an enemy running away from you make sure to try and hunt them down with an ultimate trick shot!
- A common use for Deadlock’s ultimate in post plant one versus one is to enable it and not shoot it until you see the enemy.Usually with the range of the ability you can secure the kill even after being vulnerable for a few seconds after launching it.
- To properly secure holding sites, make sure you are buying the correct loadout for the purpose you are aiming for in a certain round. If you are going for kills, then place your sound sensors in cheeky spots and peek off them.
- The sound sensor can be tricked just like the killjoy turret and chamber trip, if you hear it alerted that doesn’t mean it launched or caught an enemy as they can simply retreat and hold your peek.
