Attack Side Breakdown

Jett significantly outperforms Harbor on attack side, achieving a 53.8% round win rate versus 47.0%. This 6.7 point disparity reveals Jett as the clearly superior offensive agent in this head-to-head, with advantages that Harbor cannot easily overcome through individual skill alone.

Based on 27 matches analyzed, Jett dominates attack-side scenarios through multiple vectors. Entry success rate, post-plant conversion, and mid-round adaptability all favor Jett significantly. Harbor teams must make structural adjustments to their attack approach: rely less on Harbor for key fragging roles, design executes that minimize Harbor's direct engagement with Jett, and consider how team composition can cover Harbor's offensive weaknesses. Simply "playing better" isn't enough to overcome a 6.7% gap.

Harbor should avoid entry fragging roles against Jett whenever possible. The data clearly shows Jett wins a disproportionate share of first contacts on attack. Harbor players should volunteer for support roles — flashing for teammates, trading entries, or lurking to create map pressure without direct Jett confrontation. If forced to entry, wait for maximum utility support and ensure a trade is guaranteed. Jett can and should take aggressive entries, knowing statistical backing supports confident play.

Post-plant scenarios heavily favor Jett in this matchup. Harbor struggles to convert spike plants into round wins at the same rate, whether due to weaker defuse denial, inferior retake resistance, or less effective post-plant positioning. Harbor teams should never leave Harbor alone in post-plant — always have teammates nearby for crossfires and trades. Consider giving the spike to a different player when possible. Jett should recognize their post-plant dominance and play for spike aggressively after site takes.

Defense Side Breakdown

Jett substantially outclasses Harbor on defense, achieving 53.0% round wins compared to 46.2%. This 6.7 percentage point gap indicates Jett excels at core defensive tasks — anchoring sites, gathering information, stalling executes, and contributing to retakes — at a level Harbor cannot match.

Harbor should never solo anchor against Jett. The 6.7% defensive gap makes isolated site holds extremely unfavorable for Harbor. Instead, pair Harbor with a teammate, give them off-site positions that allow early rotates, or have them play supportive roles that don't require extended site holds. Jett should actively anchor difficult sites, knowing their defensive capabilities significantly exceed Harbor's.

Retake dynamics heavily favor Jett. When Harbor needs to retake against Jett, success requires overwhelming numbers and utility coordination — never attempt equal-number retakes and absolutely avoid solo retakes. Jett should play post-plant positions confidently, knowing Harbor struggles to clear them effectively. In clutch scenarios, Jett has a significant statistical edge that Harbor cannot overcome through individual skill alone.

Economy management becomes critical for Harbor in this matchup. Force buying against Jett is mathematically unfavorable — the defensive gap compounds when utility is limited. Harbor should advocate for full saves, ensuring full buy rounds have maximum utility to compensate for their defensive disadvantages. Jett can confidently force buy, knowing their defensive kit provides advantages that partially compensate for economic disadvantages.

Overall Side Analysis

Jett demonstrates commanding superiority on both attack (53.8%) and defense (53.0%), comprehensively outperforming Harbor across all phases of the game. Based on our analysis of 27 competitive matches, this is one of the more one-sided agent matchups in Valorant, with Jett holding advantages at every stage.

Map selection and team composition cannot fix Harbor's disadvantage in this matchup. Jett outperforms across all map types and team structures. If you're playing Harbor into Jett, your team composition needs to compensate heavily: strong fragging agents to carry Harbor's weight, utility-heavy supports to cover their positioning, and coordination to avoid leaving Harbor in isolated Jett encounters.

For ranked climbing, avoid playing Harbor when you expect to face Jett frequently. The 13.5 combined percentage point disadvantage across both sides is too large to overcome through individual skill improvement. If Jett is meta in your rank bracket, strongly consider adding them to your agent pool or playing agents that have more neutral matchups.

Final verdict: Jett decisively wins the Jett vs Harbor matchup. This isn't a skill check or a "play better" situation — Jett has systematic advantages that manifest across thousands of games. Harbor players facing Jett should adjust expectations, play more supportively, and recognize that direct confrontations are statistically unfavorable at every stage of the game.

Duelist vs Controller Dynamics

The Duelist (Jett) vs Controller (Harbor) dynamic creates asymmetric encounters where each agent brings fundamentally different tools to engagements. Jett's Duelist abilities serve different purposes than Harbor's Controller kit, meaning direct fights often feature non-equivalent utility exchanges.

Understanding how Duelist abilities interact with Controller counterplay is essential for maximizing your agent's potential. Jett's Duelist toolkit may excel at certain aspects while Harbor's Controller kit counters others. The Jett advantage suggests their role's capabilities translate better to winning these cross-role encounters on average.
