How to counter a fast push on Ascent: Asian players demonstrated an incredible agent combo in Valorant

Players from Asia have demonstrated an effective combination of two agents that makes enemy attacks on the Ascent map less dangerous. With this tactic, the chances of their survival during a fast push are very low.

On their social media account X, a user with the nickname AoShylt posted a video showing tactics where he and his teammate on the Ascent map use a combination of agents to effectively counter a fast push, leaving the opponents with minimal chances of success and survival.

The essence of the combination involves using the unpopular agent Deadlock in cooperation with Breach. Deadlock first uses Barrier Mesh (E) and Gravnet (C) to block enemy passage and reduce their movement speed. At that moment, Breach launches Fault Line (E) and Flashpoint (Q) to disorient the enemies, followed by Aftershock (C) to inflict damage while the enemies are confused. More details on the combination can be seen in the video above.

We highly recommend using these strategies if you have a teammate with whom you can implement them. Utilizing unconventional tactics improves performance in matches, as opponents do not expect such actions, giving you an advantage.
