Locked might look like just another soccer game inspired by Blue Lock but it packs a lot of features on top of the base sport gameplay. This is all thanks to a mechanic called Abilities or Weapons. There are over two dozen Weapons available in the game and since each one differs from the other, here's a tier list that ranks them from best to worst.
All Weapons Ranked - Locked Tier List
Weapons in Locked are categorized by their rarity: Unique (1%), Legendary (5%), Exotic (10%), Rare (30%), Common (55%). Since the game doesn't allow you to stack Weapons, you have to stick with only one. For a deeper dive into the game, check out its Trello board and Discord server. Here are the best Weapons in Locked.
| Tier | Weapons |
|---|---|
| S | Ace Eater, Copy Cat, Emperor, King, Monster, Serpent, Watch Tower |
| A | Formless, Nagi, Planetary, Sword Screw, Updraft |
| B | Direct Shot, Godspeed, Iron Head, Kunigami, Riptide, Snatch, Speedster, Voracious |
| C | Accelerate, Acrobatic, Neurotic, Repel, Shadow, Web |
| D | Leader, Long Legs, Rough |
S Tier - Best Weapons in Locked
Ace Eater is the best Weapon you can get in Locked. With a roll chance of only 1% this unique weapon is great for all types of players, be it strikers or defenders. On top of that it has no cooldown, allowing you to basically spam it.
| Trait | Rarity | Type | Cooldown | Pros / Cons |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ace Eater | Unique | Active | None | + Allows you to steal the ball + Places a shield on it so it cannot be snatched from you - Need to keep dribbling to keep the effect |
| Copy Cat | Exotic | Active | 180 seconds | + Mimic's any player's weapon - High cooldown time |
| Emperor | Unique | Active | 180 seconds | + Perfect for hitting a goal - High cooldown time |
| King | Unique | Active and Passive | Main: 170 seconds King Shot: 180 seconds | + Helps avoid snatches - Can be a little unpredictable |
| Monster | Legendary | Active | 40 seconds | + Great weapon for strikers + Low cooldown time |
| Serpent | Unique | Active and Passive | 120 seconds | + Good for tackling a goal + Can also perform side tackles |
| Watch Tower | Exotic | Active | 40 seconds | + Gives huge hitbox buff for all teammates - Only lasts for 40 seconds |
Other than Ace Eater, Monster and Copy Cat are also great abilities but can take some time to get used to them as they have a comparatively steeper learning curve.
A Tier
| Trait | Rarity | Type | Cooldown | Pros / Cons |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Formless | Unique | Active and Passive | 150 seconds | + Perfect for hitting the goal + Dragon Kick Passive - High cooldown time |
| Nagi | Legendary | Situational | 40 seconds | + Traps the ball midair to prevent any snatches |
| Planetary | Unique | Situational | 50 Seconds | + Great for passing |
| Sword Screw | Legendary | Situational | 45 seconds | + Great for scoring a goal - Hard to learn |
| Updraft | Legendary | Active | 80 seconds | + Allows to steal passes by catching the ball if its in the radius - Goalkeeper only |
If you like being the Goalkeeper then Sword Screw and Updraft are perfect for you. Since Sword Screw is more for skilled players, I'd suggest sticking to Updraft if you are new to the game. Apart from this, Nagi and Planetary are also great especially if you are a striker.
B Tier
| Trait | Rarity | Type | Cooldown | Pros / Cons |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Direct Shot | Common | Situational | None | + Allows to snatch the ball from opponents quickly - High cooldown time |
| Godspeed | Unique | Active | Taking the ball: 150 seconds Not taking the ball: 60 seconds | + Allows to quickly snatch the ball from opponents - High cooldown time |
| Iron Head | Common | Passive | None | + Increases header powers |
| Kunigami | Exotic | Active | 25 seconds | + Perfect for making a goal - The ball needs to be passed in order for it to activate |
| Riptide | Legendary | Active | 25 seconds | + Perfect for passing |
| Snatch | Rare | Passive | None | + Great if you like to dive - 50% chance of missing the catch |
| Speedster | Legendary | Active | 120 seconds | + 30% speed boost for 20 seconds - Not great for tall characters |
| Voracious | Exotic | Passive | None | + Allows you to get up faster after sliding and/or after breaking an ankle - Reduces stamina by 15% |
Despite being of common rarities, both Iron Head and Direct Shot are great weapons if you know your way around the game. Since they are easy to acquire, you won't have to spend a lot of money and time on getting them. Other than these, Kunigami is also a great ability but you'd have to get familiar with it since it is prone to breaking ankles.
C Tier
| Trait | Rarity | Type | Cooldown | Pros / Cons |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Accelerate | Rare | Active | 80 seconds | + Best dashing weapon - Short-lived - High cooldown time |
| Acrobatic | Legendary | Active | None | + Get up from blocks faster - More of an emote than a weapon |
| Neurotic | Rare | Passive | None | + Boosts speed + Lasts for 10 seconds - Can only be activated after an ankle is broken |
| Repel | Rare | Passive | None | + Great for blocking + One of the best Goalkeeper weapons |
| Shadow | Exotic | Active | 95 seconds | + Boosts movement speed - Short-lived |
| Web | Rare | Active | 70 seconds | + Stops opponents from running - High cooldown time |
If you are fairly new to the game then these are the Weapons you should aim for. Not only they're somewhat easy to get but they also have a gentler learning curve. As for Acrobatic and Shadow, although they are of higher rarity, they don't contribute much as compared to other Weapons in their category and that's why they're in the C tier.
D Tier
All of these weapons belong to the Common rarity and are only good when you are just starting out. I suggest rerolling them as soon as you get the chance.
- Leader
- Longlegs
- Rough
When to Reroll Weapons in Locked
Rerolling weapons in Locked can be a double-edged sword and that's why you should only do it when you have low-tier weapons. If you are low on money, it's better to stick with the weapon you already have than to spend all of it on rerolling.
But once you've stacked up enough money, you should reroll. Do note that getting it can be a little difficult and each reroll costs 3000 Yen but it can be worth all the hassle if you end up with a Legendary or Unique Weapon in your hand.
