Generally, opponents cannot walk inside your spawn or cross the safety barrier. However, if they somehow make their way inside, it will result in an instant elimination. This is the mechanic you can use to score some quick kills with Jeff's ultimate.

Jeff can use the ultimate ability during team fights to capture as many opponents as possible. It is best to target enemies who have a higher health pool than fragile Duelists or Strategists while using this technique. You can then go toward your spawn and spit them out inside the barriers to score instant kills.

The game previously allowed Jeff to use this ability and trap players inside the base. If the team simply ignored the enemies inside their base and avoided eliminating them, the opponents would be trapped inside. It seems like the devs have tweaked this mechanic to prevent players from abusing unintentional interaction to gain an unfair advantage in online matches.
