Attack Side Breakdown

Jett demonstrates a modest attack-side advantage over Yoru in this matchup, converting 49.3% of attacking rounds versus 48.0%. While this 1.3 point edge gives Jett slightly better site-taking capability, the gap remains narrow enough that skilled Yoru players can overcome it through superior execution and team play.

The data from 242 competitive games suggests Jett'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, Yoru 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 1.3% gap.

When taking entry duels, Jett holds a slight statistical advantage but nothing that should change fundamental approach. Yoru 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. Jett can play slightly more aggressively on entries, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.

In post-plant situations, Jett's slight advantage likely stems from better utility for denying defuses or controlling retake angles. Yoru 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 1.3 point gap can be neutralized through smart post-plant fundamentals.

Defense Side Breakdown

Jett shows slightly better defensive capabilities than Yoru, winning 52.0% of defense rounds compared to 50.7%. This 1.3 percentage point edge suggests Jett's kit provides marginally better tools for CT-side play, though the gap remains small enough for skilled Yoru players to overcome.

When deciding site assignments, Jett can slightly more confidently take solo anchor roles. Their 1.3% defensive advantage likely stems from better stalling utility, superior information gathering, or more effective site-holding positions. Yoru 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.

Jett demonstrates marginally better retake capability in this matchup. Whether through superior clearing utility, better post-plant positioning, or stronger clutch mechanics, Jett converts retakes at a slightly higher rate. Yoru should focus on retaking with numbers — don't take hero 1v1 retakes against Jett when you can wait for teammates. Jett can be slightly more confident in isolated retake situations, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.

On eco and force buy rounds, the 1.3% gap becomes more pronounced as utility advantages compound. Yoru should be more conservative with eco aggression against Jett and prioritize saving for full buys where team utility can compensate for individual disadvantages. Jett can play slightly more aggressively on force buys, knowing their defensive kit provides small but meaningful advantages even with limited economy.

Overall Side Analysis

Jett maintains a consistent but slim advantage across both sides of the map in this matchup, with 49.3% attack win rate and 52.0% defense win rate. While Jett is statistically favored regardless of map side, the margins are close enough that Yoru remains highly competitive and can win games through strong individual performance.

Map choice and team composition have minimal impact on this specific matchup outcome. Both agents perform similarly across attack-sided, defense-sided, and balanced maps. Pick based on personal comfort, team needs, and broader composition considerations rather than Jett vs Yoru specific factors. The slight Jett advantage doesn't change based on external factors.

For ranked climbing, don't overthink this matchup. The statistical differences are small enough that individual skill, team coordination, and game sense remain the primary factors determining outcomes. Focus on improving your fundamentals on either agent rather than trying to gain edges through matchup knowledge. Both Jett and Yoru are viable ranked picks with minimal matchup disadvantage.

Bottom line: this is one of the more balanced agent matchups in Valorant. Jett has a slight statistical edge, but Yoru is absolutely viable and can win through skill. If you're comfortable on Yoru, don't switch to Jett just for this matchup — the difference is too small to justify changing your agent pool.

Duelist vs Duelist Dynamics

Both Jett and Yoru fill the Duelist role in Valorant team compositions. This role mirror means teams won't face composition issues from having both agents — the question is purely which Duelist performs better in direct competition. Our data clearly indicates Jett is the stronger Duelist pick when these agents face each other.

In Duelist vs Duelist encounters, similar ability timing and usage patterns mean both agents often use their kits in comparable ways. The winner typically comes down to which player uses their abilities more efficiently and wins the mechanical duels that follow. Jett's statistical advantage suggests their specific Duelist kit translates slightly better to winning these mirror encounters.
