Latest Deadlock update rebalances new heroes and nerf overall damage

Author : Ryan Feb 19,2025

Valve continues to provide regular updates to Deadlock, despite abandoning a fixed update schedule. The latest patch isn't huge, but it's a significant update, not just a minor adjustment. A complete changelog is posted on the game's forum.

Four new heroes were added on January 18th, followed quickly by balance tweaks. Holliday's Crackshot ability now affects units and has a reduced cooldown when doing so. Calico's Ava ability can now destroy objects she passes through.

Several existing heroes also received adjustments: Kelvin's health increased (600 to 650), Vendicta's bullet speed decreased (810 to 740), and her movement speed reduced (9 to 8). In total, eleven heroes, including the newcomers, were impacted.

Deadlock remains in closed beta, maintaining a player base consistently between 7,000 and 20,000 players.
