Top Heroes in Deadlock — Characters with the Highest Win Rates

Valve's new game, Deadlock, launched on August 24, and it quickly gained a massive following. After its official release and the ability for closed beta testers to invite their friends on Steam, the popularity of this shooter surged, peaking at 92,000 concurrent players. One of the first challenges any newcomer faces in Deadlock is choosing a character. Before the release, Valve had already introduced 21 unique heroes to the game. We’ve gathered the latest win rate statistics for all Deadlock heroes to help you start your journey with the right pick.

 

Hero Characteristics

The heroes in Deadlock differ significantly from one another, with each having unique stats like health (HP), movement speed, and regeneration. Additionally, each hero comes equipped with unique weapons, varying in range, speed, and power, alongside a distinct set of abilities. Much like in Dota 2, Deadlock’s heroes serve various roles on the map, contributing to team strategy and coordination.

Win Rate Stats and Rankings

Fans have already created a resource to track the statistics of all Deadlock matches, and the first objective rankings of the strongest characters have emerged. The top hero at the time of publication is Seven — one of the agents recommended for beginners. Seven’s standout feature is a mass area-of-effect ultimate, highly useful at all stages of the game but especially effective in the late game when defending or attacking the base. With a 57.7% win rate, Seven currently ranks first among all Deadlock heroes.

In second place is Warden, a close-combat hero capable of filling a tank role thanks to his ultimate. His win rate is 54.7%. Closing the top three is McGinnis, another strong hero with a 52.1% win rate.
