To take control of “A main” area, go near the boxes in “A lobby.” Look towards the front wall and aim at the top as shown in the picture. Then, make a simple throw by clicking the left mouse button. This will make the GravNet land at the entrance of “A site,” where it can catch any opponents who are peeking or hiding there. Since they are crouching and can’t find cover fast, they will have to fight you.

2. From A lobby to Generator

Stand in the corner at “A orb” and look towards the middle spike in the sky. Aim at the top of the spike, as shown in the picture. Then, simply click the left mouse button to throw the GravNet. It will land behind the generator. This smart placement will trap anyone hiding or trying to peek from behind the generator. This will give you a big advantage while trying to enter “A site”.

3. A main to A site Dice

Stand at “A main” to see the left wall. Look at the picture to align the GravNet’s HUD box to the grill correctly. Aim at the top of the right wall inside the site. Move forward and jump. Then, throw the GravNet by clicking the left mouse button. It will land behind the dice, stopping anyone who tries to hide or peek from there. If you don’t want to jump, just aim a little bit higher and the GravNet will still land at the same spot. This lineup will help you enter “A site.”

4. From Mid Link to Mid Cubby

This lineup will help you to stop enemies from coming through “A short” and protect your team’s push in the middle. Stand a “Mid Link” and ping “A short” on the map. Move your crosshair up and aim at the sky (see the picture). While running forward, throw the GravNet by clicking the left mouse button. It will land exactly at “A short,” where opponents often peek early in the round. Use this lineup to proceed without worrying about opponents peeking from that direction.

5. From B main to Lane

Stand in the corner by the boxes at “B orb.” Look up and line up your crosshair with the marked line (see the picture). Throw the GravNet by clicking the left mouse button, aiming towards “B lane.” This accurate throw will catch enemies who often peek from there to stop pushes from “B main.” Use this lineup to stop their advantage and take control of the area effectively.

6. From B Main to Spawn

Stand next to the wall at “B main.” Aim at the top of the first bar (see the picture). Throw the GravNet by clicking the left mouse button. It will land perfectly in spawn, covering all the corners. Opponents in that area will have to stay back, allowing you to enter the site more easily. Use this lineup and try to push fast from “B lane” to gain site control.

Deadlock’s GravNet Lineups for Defence on Ascent

1. From A Heaven to Switch

Stand in the corner at the stairs of “A heaven.” Look up and aim at the yellow part of the second line (see the picture). Throw the GravNet by clicking the left mouse button. It will land accurately at the switch, covering both corners where opponents often stay. This will surprise them, and your teammates can push and use this advantage to take control of the area.

You can combine this with an Odin spam through the wall which will get you some easy kills.

4. CT Spawn to B Boathouse

Throw the GravNet by clicking the left mouse button. Aim at the right side of the boathouse. This smart placement lets you enter the site without worrying about opponents peeking from that direction. Instead, focus on checking the left side for any opponents when you enter the site. Use this lineup to efficiently retake control of “B site.”
