Locked 2 Best Weapons Tier List: Top Picks Ranked for Matchmaking & Custom Games

Locked 2 Weapon Tier List: Best Weapons Ranked for Performance

Locked 2 features a diverse arsenal of weapons, each offering unique strengths for offense, defense, or goalkeeper-specific roles. To help players navigate this complex system, we’ve compiled a comprehensive weapon tier list, ranking each option from S-Tier (best) to D-Tier (weakest) based on power, flexibility, and situational effectiveness in both matchmaking (Autos) and custom games (Scrims).

This guide excludes height and flow combos for now, as they will be addressed in a future update if there’s sufficient interest. Below, we outline key terminology used throughout the tier list to ensure clarity.

Terminology Breakdown

• Autos: Standard queue or matchmaking games.
• Scrims: Friendly or custom games.
• iFrames: Invicibility frames during a move, where opponents cannot interact with you.

S-Tier Weapons: The Meta Dominators

Emperor Impact

Type: Unique

Activation: Makes your next shot an instant max-power, max-speed projectile.

"Emperor Impact is arguably the best weapon in the game. It’s an instant power shot that’s both incredibly strong and easy to use, with virtually zero counterplay. Its flexibility from any shooting position makes it a top-tier choice."

Why it’s S-Tier:

• Instant, high-damage shot with no setup required.
• Synergizes exceptionally well with Riptide Curve or Power Shot for amplified effects.
• Highly adaptable, effective in both Autos and Scrims.

Big Bang Drive

Type: Unique

Activation: Performs a bicycle kick power shot, sending the ball backward.

"Big Bang Drive is one of the best weapons in the game for both matchmaking and scrims, provided you avoid aiming directly at the goalkeeper. Mastering the 180-degree aim is key to maximizing its potential."

Why it’s S-Tier:

• Highly unpredictable and difficult to counter once mastered.
• Excellent for creating scoring opportunities from awkward angles.
• Dominates in Scrims and skilled Autos matches.

Serpent

Type: Unique

Activation: Clears the ball in the direction you’re facing. Hold to jump higher.

"Serpent boasts one of the largest hitboxes in the game, making it the best defensive weapon available. Its ability to stop shots and clear the ball effectively secures its S-Tier status."

Why it’s S-Tier:

• Unmatched defensive capabilities with a massive hitbox.
• Versatile for both clearing shots and initiating offensive plays.
• Reliable in high-pressure situations.

BunnyRare

Type: Rare

Activation: Use a single charge to leap high into the air.

"BunnyRare is an incredibly strong defensive and offensive weapon. In Scrims, it’s overpowered, but its effectiveness in Autos depends on the skill level of opponents. Coordinate with teammates for optimal use."

Why it’s S-Tier:

• Excellent for aerial plays, both defensively and offensively.
• Strong counter to certain offensive weapons.
• Highly flexible in Scrims and coordinated Autos matches.

A-Tier Weapons: Excellent Alternatives to the Meta

Immense Speed

Type: Legendary

Activation: Burst forward in three accelerating surges to gain momentum.

"Immense Speed is the best speed-enhancing weapon in the game. While it takes time to reach max speed, its mobility and defensive capabilities make it a top-tier alternative to S-Tier options."

Why it’s A-Tier:

• Unmatched mobility for center positions and defensive plays.
• Can be used offensively to dribble past opponents.
• Speed is a critical factor in Locked 2, and this weapon delivers.

Perfect Counter

Type: Unique

Activation: Enter a counter stance that triggers a massive boost if an opponent attempts to steal your ball. Does nothing if not triggered.

"Perfect Counter is one of the best weapons in Autos when playing in the box, as it triggers frequently. However, against experienced players, it’s harder to activate due to their avoidance tactics."

Why it’s A-Tier:

• Highly effective in box play during Autos matches.
• Massive boost upon successful counter, making it a strong defensive tool.
• Situationally powerful but requires precise timing.

B-Tier Weapons: Situationally Powerful with Setup Required

B-Tier weapons are strong in specific scenarios but require more setup or coordination to maximize their potential. Examples include weapons that excel in certain matchups or require precise positioning to be effective.

C-Tier Weapons: Weak Options with Limited Use

C-Tier weapons are generally outclassed by higher-tier options. They may have niche uses but are often outperformed in most situations.

D-Tier Weapons: The Weakest Links

D-Tier weapons are the least effective options in the game. They offer minimal advantages and are rarely, if ever, recommended for competitive play.

Special Tier Weapons: Unique and Niche Options

Special Tier weapons include unique or goalkeeper-specific options that don’t fit neatly into the standard tiers. These weapons may excel in very specific roles or situations.

Note: This tier list is based on current meta and player feedback. Weapon rankings may evolve with balance updates or meta shifts.
