As of right now, we don’t know if we’ll be able to keep the Christmas skins or not. There are also no bonuses for unlocking them all.

Thanks for the update!!

PvP only!

@@tracklock_gg mo&krill need eat each enemy with getting stacks (kill or assist + 3sec after ult) in 1 match. verified by two people, me and my friend

Ivy. It seems 2 frag or assist under debaff from 1 ult

Geist. not working swap, not working swap and assist. Trying to swap and kill

Can confirm, and you don't need to pick up all 4. The death slam is the AOE where he throws them. I picked up 3 and threw them at the 4th.

7 Killstreak is no joke!

I got it first match!

Thanks for the update! I'll add a pinned comment.

its a skin chill

Bro has not heard of a costume before

Oh no, woke control police is here, watch out guys!

Female dwarves have beards. McGinnis is a craftsman like a dwarf. It checks out to me.

Since she and Grey Talon have the exact same beard asset, I've been thinking about it as a novelty mask that they both purchased as a costume.

Значит неважен источник урона, главное, чтобы была 1000 одним попаданием

I've heard rumors that there is multiple ways to unlock each skin, or the other comment is correct that 1k damage might be all you need instead.

@, who@. So, 1k damage is correct

If there is something inaccurate in our video, we'd be happy to issue a statement about it or edit the bad info out if warranted!

@@tracklock_gg Happy to hear it. - Mo & Krill: Stack 700 bonus health from your ult. (you get 70 per ult kill) - Paradox: Kill enemies while mid air. (between 1 and 3) (made easier by utilizing right click during carbine to hover) - Pocket: Only has to be a 4 man ult, not 5 - Warden: Get 3 kills with Binding Ward AS THE KILLING BLOW. I know that sounds ridiculous because it completely defeats the point of Binding Ward; however, that bitch has 2.6x spirit scaling and can easily proc Improved Burst, so go crazy. - McGinnis: Putting this last because I don't have it. But I have heard in-game form some Spanish guy that does have the skin that all he had to do was land the killing blow on 2 of the 8 BASE guardians. I have 11 of the 22 skins as of writing this.

Deadlock's highest player rank is Eternus, so I'm talking about players at that rank when I mention Eternus Players!

@ Ah, thank you!

I agree! After seeing how he's performed putting more emphasis on player actions instead of Passive damage has hit him harder than expected! It's something I'll talk about more in our Tier List update on Tuesday!

I'm sorry it feels that way. We're still dialing in our process of how we judge a heroes tier for future videos, so maybe we'll be closer aligned going forward!

Infernus is definitely climbing fast! His buffs and some item changes have given him much more favour than we expected, we're keeping an eye on his performance overall and will talk about him more in our tier list update in a few days!

Thanks!

Win rate is a factor in our tier list, but it's not the whole basis for where heroes land. We have our own Tracklock team that consists of multiple top 100 players, and consult them after the patch to determine where we believe heroes will fall. Then we weigh their thoughts against what we are seeing with Win/Pick rate and make our best guess (because this video is being worked on the day the patch drops, there isn't much immediate data yet). After the publishing of the video, we continue to analyze and work with top players to create a revised version that will go out about a week after the first video goes live.

This is the lowest I have seen Dynamo ranked. He is typically in S-tier.

Do you think he should be higher or lower on the list? Right now based on our data, he's sitting between A & B but this time we decided to consider him a little higher.

Thanks so much for the kind words, I hope your investment will 100x 💙

😂

Dynamo's ult got hit pretty hard this patch, with the mix of Cooldown Reduction Nerfs and his ultimate getting a longer cooldown on top of it, he's one of the hardest heroes hit right now. Don't get me wrong, his ult will still be very impactful but it will also need to be used much more carefully. As for Bebop, we aren't judging a heroes tier ranking purely against the changes made in the patch itself, but also against how they've been performing on average, as well as how the heroes around them have changed. So while he got smaller tweaks this time around, he's been seeing an uptick in performance even before this patch, thus moving him to the A-tier.

Thank you! 100% Tier Lists are subjective in nature. With the help of the Data we track on the Tracklock website, and the tracklock competitive team who places well on the leaderboards, we try to be as objective as possible when we present our data! As we release more videos and update our algorithms, we'll be able to dial in the information much more effectively as well!

Yes! We've officially started our own youtube channel that will be using the data from the site to better inform videos!

@@tracklock_gg great! i look forward to your content!

Great suggestions! We're definitely looking at how we can improve the format going forward, and a big one is talking about how item changes also affect heroes.

Thank you!

He didn't get any direct changes this patch (just a bug fix) so we didn't outright mention him. He's still in our overall tier list at the end though! Right around 15:50

Thanks for the comment, I'd like to go into our analysis on why heroes rank the way they do. Tracklock has some top leaderboard players on our competitive team, when the patch notes dropped we consult with our team and then weigh the suggestions they make against our Tier List Data on the Tracklock website. Which is based on Winrate/Pickrate across different ranks though as of recording this data is not a full picture yet., so we make our best judgement calls with a plan to update any meaningful increases or decreases early next week. We also know that Item changes affect the heroes just as much as their personal changes. At the time of writing/recording however, those changes haven't always come fully to fruition which can make it difficult to include them in all cases. It's something we'll look to include more in the future! Going forward there are two other things we want to improve. First, I'll do a better job explaining our methodology up front to make things more clear. Secondly, we'll be refining the feedback changes to be more concise about why a hero is changing or staying the same with some direct quotes from the team, and not just comparing them to their winrates necessarily.

@@tracklock_gg You can do that, but I think your methodology right now, at least from the little you convey and present on your website, is completely useless. To illustrate: in Dota 60-80% of the ranks are filled with people who really do not know what they are doing. They get into the game, want to play one hero and don't care for any drafting implication. This is the "casual" crowd, always the largest in any game even in ranked. In these ranks typical pubstompers like Broodmother and Meepo dominate games, and as a result their winrates are inflated to caricatural degrees. These heroes aren't "good" in the conventional sense, they are "good against bad, uncoordinated players". Icefrog never balances his game around these people because they don't actually play the game it was intended to be played. They just kind-of exist in it. Just like how you would not redesign a puzzle game because a toddler uses the pieces as a non-functional crayon.

We appreciate the feedback! My opinion on tier lists is that they need to appeal to the part player base that will benefit from them the most. In the majority of cases, that's the mid-low end of the skill brackets, as people in Eternus for example, aren't looking to watch a tier list video to know who to pick in their next game and/or tournament. Using our averaged out data for skill, and the influence of players that we consult, we aim to reach that middle-low demographic with these lists. We have the ability to sort our data on the Tracklock website, by ranks and as such can see the definitive shifts in heroes and their win/pick rates. Also, I'm always open to other ideas or methodologies when it comes to these lists as they are a very subjective thing to provide. Since you are using Dota2 as an example, I'd greatly appreciate it if you would provide me a link to a tier list you feel best represents the methodology you prefer tier lists be based on. I don't guarantee it'll change how we view/produce these going forward, but I'm open to learn more about it! If you don't have time for that, no worries at all, we still appreciate the feedback you've provided so far!

@@tracklock_gggreat comment man

You are totally right! The damage doesn't immediately re-apply if you spam it but waiting a few seconds and throwing another scarab refreshes the drain over time, not just the duration the debuff takes place. We'll do some more in-depth testing going forward on changes like this to ensure we aren't misreporting changes. Thanks!

Right now Paradox sits in our B-Tier but is slowly rising. Playing her as a utility hero that swaps the enemy carries seems to be her best options right now!

Thank you!

Thanks! Guides are definitely something we are exploring. We've got the Pocket guide we are working on for later this week, and from there we'll expand into more heroes and builds. In addition, these tier lists will be released each patch to make sure the data is as up to date as possible! Our goal is to release them as quickly as possible after each patch (with data supporting our findings) so it's relevant for as long as possible.

@ sounds good! you guys really have something special here keep it up :]

Thank you!

The charges on Life Drain are a very cool change, I mainly didn't add it here, because it wasn't clear how it would affect her entirely. More info in our tier list coming soon.

I believe they are experimenting with some reworks on Grey Talon to make him less frustrating to play against, but also not absolutely a must pick like the last time they buffed him. We'll talk about all of his changes in the tier list coming soon!

Thanks so much!

From what we've been hearing from players across the board is that she's still performing very well even with the nerfs. It's something we'll keep an eye on and report back soon!

@@tracklock_gg More mean't that it was a weird thing to nerf, and they should've focused more on nerfing ult

Raven's fun, but definitely needs some work!

​@@tracklock_ggi think raven looks more like kingsman then 007 because he's shooting using umbrella gun.

Yes! I completely agree. Right after I posted this, I saw a clip of Kingsman and knew Raven was closer to that 😂

Thank you!

It's possible that this should have been considered more of a tweak than a buff, but part of the reason we believe this to be a net buff for Wraith is the Ultimate CC time is relatively similar at early stages of the game. She also received lots of damage and sustain buffs elsewhere in her kit, which means she can kill enemies in less time than before and stay healthier doing so. The Telekinesis projectile also travels faster so enemies can't run as far away from wraith before being lifted.

wraith players lose win button, proceed to cry harder than haze players after their ult was made to not shoot two people

@@SiggyTundrathis ignores the fact the rest of her kit was nerfed based on how strong her ult was. Now she just sucks. She was already a low tier hero after all the nerfs.

​@@Richy6ix Agreed. Anyone testing the ult now in training for a minute or in game will rapidly see that it is now nothing but a glorified animation that does not prevent the ennemy from running wherever with absolutely no interruption (the lift/slam does not interrupt movement at all.) I can understand how the old one could be percieved as oppressive on the recieving end. But give her an ult. Anything really, I don't see this light lift as one really.

Agreed! This is on the smaller end of changes that we've seen from Deadlock Patches, but it's still quite a bit at the same time!
