back to 3 smokes which last 7 seconds and two updrafts and the insta dash with knives that recharge after every kill at only 6 ult points
jett is the worst dive duelist as of now yes
shes only good on icebox and ascent
Some teams use her on abyss but i still think yoru or waylay are better
Nah people just figured out other agents not called jett actually exist so it feels off I never thought I would ever say this before this year but she's kind of underrated
not really, other agents have become more useful for teamplay like Waylay Ult, Yoru Ult, Raze ult to retake and execute sites, while Jett is more of a solo Duelist where the player can pop off individually, so Jett hasnt been used a lot now, she needs a buff
The team play part is true but I feel like some teams should really be playing less of some of the newer 'meta' duelists and more jett and it's not like she doesn't get used she still has loads of maps where she's a viable option
Jett is still a viable option yea but to a very few players and even a very few teams now, People just play Yoru, Waylay, Neon, or Raze because of all the other util those agents have, Jett has Dash, Updraft, Knives and Smokes all for just herself. Jett used to be the most picked up Duelist and now they barely use it even in so called 'Jett maps'
she is still very self sustainable so i think she's in that clove situation where she's good in ranked but not as good in pro play
Jett literally gets picked on Ascent, Icebox, Abyss and Breeze for standard meta comps. She's definitely lost her place to Neon in maps like Haven, but she is still a fairly solid agent in pro play. Clove is very much a ranked agent - smokes don't last long enough to play solo-controller in pro play and you get more benefits from playing Viper or Astra in double-smoke comps if you have Omen as main smokes.
that would be game breaking the way the game is made. Imagine you're late into the round, and the enemy jett is still standing in the middle of the open on an off angle with her dash ready
yeah and thats why they nerfed her, cuz it was game breaking, same with chamber tp
Jett is still being used. Why should she always get special treatment and be top 2 most picked duelists?
Jett has fallen behind, but with very much valid reasons because she was far too dominant in the early years of Valorant. Raze started getting picked up in 2023. Neon started getting picked up in 2024. Yoru has been getting picked up in 2025. Waylay is definitely good now, but Jett would still be a lot of teams' main pick for maps like Ascent, Icebox or Breeze. I'm much more glad that the duelist pool is a lot more diversified because any agent can work as long as your duelist is comfortable with it and the strats behind it work.
I wouldn't mind Jett getting a double updraft again, but for Jett to be buffed, it needs to be in a way that improves some of the micro details of how she can be played on maps where she might have not been able to be played that way before. Just giving her some of her old kit feels a bit lazy in that respect.
double updraft and 3.5 second smokes would be cool.
the ability to stay in cover for longer would improve her in a way that neon and raze can't.
plus 2 updrafts give her the ability to take more off-angles, in the way yoru does with his tps
