All Deadlock characters, abilities, and hero tier list

Who are the Deadlock characters? Blending the lane-dominating, creep-farming gameplay of a MOBA with pew-pew hero shooter action, Deadlock is quite the chimera. Currently in its fledgling state, Deadlock's slowly adding new characters to the game as developer Valve looks to expand its already-diverse roster to include even more options.

Below, we'll give you the full rundown of what each of the Deadlock characters does in-game. While there’s a lot to get to grips with in Valve’s new MOBA game, our accompanying Deadlock tier list, found at the bottom of this guide, will help you out when deciding which heroes are worth investing your time into. We've also highlighted the new characters currently being tested in our Deadlock release date guide.
