Deadlock hero guides
Explore Deadlock hero guides covering abilities, combat tips and the limits that matter in a fight.
Celeste
Mark enemies with Light Eater and follow with attacks. Place Radiant Daggers where the delayed explosion can connect.
Drifter
Mark a reachable enemy, check the space behind them before teleporting, and use Rend where its close-range bonus can apply.
Graves
Fill the jar from nearby deaths, send Deadheads toward your gun target, and keep a safe firing position while your summons push.
Ivy
Fight alongside an ally, keep Kudzu Connection in line of sight, and use Stone Form to absorb a response or set up a stun.
Lash
Use height and Grapple to set up Ground Strike, then heal with Flog while enemies are still in front of you.
Mina
Combine gunfire and spells to trigger Love Bites, then use Rake to finish wounded targets. Keep a retreat available before chasing.
Pocket
Build amplification with Barrage, put Flying Cloak somewhere useful, and preserve Satchel for an incoming threat.
Rat King
Use Rat Swarm to pressure a target’s bullet resistance, follow with gunfire or Scrap Grenade, and time Royal Pestments for incoming bullets.
Rem
Support an ally with Tag Along, use Pillow Toss to disrupt enemies, and coordinate Naptime with the team.
Shiv
Maintain knife pressure, manage deferred damage, and use Killing Blow when the first hero on its path meets the execute condition.
Silver
Use human-form control to prepare a target, then spend Lycan Curse’s limited window where your wolf abilities can connect.
Victor
Pain Battery charges as you take damage. Let Jumpstart regenerate health, and leave self-damaging fights when you have no room to recover.
Vyper
Stack daggers on one target, apply delayed venom, and distinguish a direct Petrifying Bola hit from its area explosion.
