Attack Side Breakdown
Deadlock demonstrates a modest attack-side advantage over Brimstone in this matchup, converting 45.8% of attacking rounds versus 43.3%. While this 2.5 point edge gives Deadlock slightly better site-taking capability, the gap remains narrow enough that skilled Brimstone players can overcome it through superior execution and team play.
The data from 7 competitive games suggests Deadlock's kit provides marginally better tools for attack-side scenarios. This could manifest as slightly more effective entry utility, better post-plant stalling, or superior mid-round adaptability. However, Brimstone teams shouldn't dramatically alter their attacking approach — instead, focus on tightening execute timing, coordinating utility chains more precisely, and ensuring trades are happening when entries fail. Small improvements in team coordination can easily overcome a 2.5% gap.
When taking entry duels, Deadlock holds a slight statistical advantage but nothing that should change fundamental approach. Brimstone players should still take confident entries when they have good information or utility support. The key adjustment is ensuring you're not taking unnecessary 50-50 duels — look for angles where you have an advantage through utility, information, or teammate support. Deadlock can play slightly more aggressively on entries, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.

In post-plant situations, Deadlock's slight advantage likely stems from better utility for denying defuses or controlling retake angles. Brimstone should compensate by being more deliberate about post-plant positioning — take spots that offer escape routes or trade potential rather than hero plays. Stack post-plants with teammates when possible, and use utility efficiently to maximize delay time. The 2.5 point gap can be neutralized through smart post-plant fundamentals.
Defense Side Breakdown
Deadlock shows slightly better defensive capabilities than Brimstone, winning 56.7% of defense rounds compared to 54.2%. This 2.5 percentage point edge suggests Deadlock's kit provides marginally better tools for CT-side play, though the gap remains small enough for skilled Brimstone players to overcome.
When deciding site assignments, Deadlock can slightly more confidently take solo anchor roles. Their 2.5% defensive advantage likely stems from better stalling utility, superior information gathering, or more effective site-holding positions. Brimstone should consider pairing with a teammate on their site rather than solo anchoring, or taking positions that allow early rotates rather than committing to extended holds. The advantage is small but worth considering in close games.
Deadlock demonstrates marginally better retake capability in this matchup. Whether through superior clearing utility, better post-plant positioning, or stronger clutch mechanics, Deadlock converts retakes at a slightly higher rate. Brimstone should focus on retaking with numbers — don't take hero 1v1 retakes against Deadlock when you can wait for teammates. Deadlock can be slightly more confident in isolated retake situations, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.
On eco and force buy rounds, the 2.5% gap becomes more pronounced as utility advantages compound. Brimstone should be more conservative with eco aggression against Deadlock and prioritize saving for full buys where team utility can compensate for individual disadvantages. Deadlock can play slightly more aggressively on force buys, knowing their defensive kit provides small but meaningful advantages even with limited economy.
Overall Side Analysis
Deadlock holds clear advantages on both attack (45.8%) and defense (56.7%), establishing themselves as the superior choice in the Brimstone vs Deadlock matchup regardless of map side. This consistency across both halves means Deadlock doesn't need to play for specific sides or rely on winning a particular half to succeed.
Deadlock's advantage holds across all map types and team compositions. Whether on attack-sided, defense-sided, or balanced maps, Deadlock performs better. Brimstone teams should consider compositions that can cover their weaknesses — pair Brimstone with strong fragging agents who can carry during their difficult matchup encounters, and ensure utility supports Brimstone's positioning.
For ranked climbing specifically, Deadlock is the objectively better pick in this matchup. If you're equally comfortable on both agents and frequently face this matchup, practicing Deadlock provides a measurable ranked advantage. Brimstone players should focus on team play, utility value, and avoiding direct Deadlock confrontations rather than trying to outfrag them.
The verdict is clear: Deadlock wins this matchup on both sides of the map. The combined 5.0 percentage point advantage across attack and defense represents a meaningful statistical edge. Brimstone isn't unplayable, but faces an uphill battle requiring stronger team support and more disciplined play to compete.
Controller vs Sentinel Dynamics
The Controller (Brimstone) vs Sentinel (Deadlock) dynamic creates asymmetric encounters where each agent brings fundamentally different tools to engagements. Brimstone's Controller abilities serve different purposes than Deadlock's Sentinel kit, meaning direct fights often feature non-equivalent utility exchanges.
Understanding how Controller abilities interact with Sentinel counterplay is essential for maximizing your agent's potential. Brimstone's Controller toolkit may excel at certain aspects while Deadlock's Sentinel kit counters others. The Deadlock advantage suggests their role's capabilities translate better to winning these cross-role encounters on average.
