If you’re just getting into Roblox LOCKED:2, let me save you from the same confusion most of us had early on. This game looks simple at first—kick ball, score goals, win matches. But once you actually start playing, you realise there’s a lot happening under the surface. Flow types, heights, weird mechanics like bicycle kicks, weapon stacking… none of it is explained properly.
I remember jumping in thinking I’d figure it out quickly—and instead I spent hours making the wrong choices, using the wrong setups, and wondering why I felt weaker than everyone else.
So instead of you going through that, here are 5 important things explained properly, the way someone should’ve told you from the start.
Flow Types
This is one of the first systems you see, and also one of the most misunderstood.
Inside your customization menu, you’ll find Flow Types, which basically act as buffs when your flow activates. A lot of players argue about “best flow,” but realistically, two stand out:
- Offball
- Burst
What you should actually use
If you want something reliable → Offball is the safest and strongest choice
Why?
Because most of the time, you don’t have the ball. Offball gives you better value consistently, especially in real matches.
Burst is still good—but it’s more situational and works better if you build around it.
Quick advice:
- Offball = consistent speed + longer uptime
- Burst = stronger impact, but shorter and more situational
If you’re new, don’t overthink it—just go Offball and move on.
Height System
This is not cosmetic. Height actually affects gameplay in a big way.
And I mean big.
Different heights change:
- Cooldowns
- Movement feel
- Playstyle effectiveness
The biggest mistake players make
They copy a YouTuber’s height thinking it’s “meta.”
That doesn’t work here.
What you should do instead
Pick based on your playstyle:
- Short (5’3 – 5’9) → faster, lower cooldowns
- Mid (5’9) → balanced all-rounder
- Tall (6’0+) → better presence, different play feel
Real talk
Playing 5’3 vs 6’3 feels like two completely different games.
Take time to experiment. Don’t rush this decision.
Bicycle Kick Mechanic
This is one of those mechanics the game barely explains—but it’s actually huge.
You can perform manual bicycle kicks without needing specific abilities.
How to do it
- Hold your backward key (S)
- Charge your shot
- Jump
- Release mid-air
That’s it—but timing matters.
Why this matters
- You can jump MUCH higher than normal
- It helps in aerial plays
- It gives you scoring angles others can’t reach
Important warning
If you’re new, this can mess you up.
A lot.
Because holding backward while shooting might accidentally trigger it—and you’ll send the ball in the wrong direction.
My suggestion
- Beginner → turn it OFF in settings
- Later → turn it ON and practice
Weapon Stacking
This is probably the most confusing mechanic in the game.
People either think it’s broken… or don’t understand it at all.
What actually happens
When you combine two weapons, the game takes:
- The best trait from each
- And merges them into one shot
Example (simple version)
- One weapon = fast charge
- Another = strong power
Stack them → you get fast + strong
Why it matters
- You can create insanely efficient shots
- You don’t need to “use both weapons separately”
- It simplifies gameplay once you understand it
Reality check
This isn’t a bug. It’s intentional.
And yes—it’s going to be very important in competitive play.
Private Servers
Private servers in LOCKED:2 are actually powerful tools—not just for messing around.
They give you control over:
- Ball spawning
- Cooldowns
- Flow
- Match settings
- Even gravity and multipliers
Why you should care
If you’re serious about improving:
- You can practice mechanics without pressure
- Test builds and setups
- Learn faster than in public matches
Small but useful tip
You can even:
- Freeze players
- Reset flow
- Adjust game speed and physics
Basically, it’s your personal training ground.
If you’re just starting, don’t try to master everything at once.
Focus on this order:
- Pick a Flow (Offball recommended)
- Experiment with Height
- Ignore bicycle kicks at first (or disable them)
- Slowly learn weapon stacking
- Use private servers to practice
That alone will put you ahead of most new players.
