What is the Deadlock Tier List?

The Deadlock tier list is a leaderboard for ranked play in Valve's Deadlock. Each row pairs a letter tier with the hero's win rate and the number of matches behind it. Use the table to see how the roster performed in one shared snapshot and find the exact percentage for any hero.

The numbered position on this Deadlock tier list shows a hero's place in win rate order. The letter groups a range of results into one band. Two heroes can share a letter even when their percentages and positions differ.

Each Deadlock tier list snapshot uses one configured start date for the whole roster. Heroes are measured over the same time span, so comparisons within the table share a consistent window even when appearance counts differ.

Why use a Deadlock Tier List?

Use the Deadlock tier list when you want a shortlist before you queue. Find a hero you already know, compare a few alternatives, and choose one you have time to practice. The table helps narrow the field while you decide which playstyle you enjoy and can execute consistently.

The Deadlock tier list also gives you a broader reference point after a short run of games. If your experience with a hero differs from the board, look back at the opponents and lineups you faced. That comparison can give you a specific question to take into a replay review.

If you queue with friends, bring a Deadlock tier list into the discussion when you compare hero pools. Each player can suggest a couple of familiar options, then the group can look up how those heroes performed across the ranked sample.

How do you read the Deadlock Tier List?

Start with Search heroes to find a specific name on the Deadlock tier list. Use a tier button to narrow the results, or choose Hero name in the sort menu to browse alphabetically. Search and tier filters work together, so you can check a hero's placement inside the group you selected.

Choose Matches to put the largest hero samples first. That view is useful when you want to compare frequently seen picks. Switch back to Win rate to order the same filtered group by the percentage of games each hero won. If your filters return no heroes, use Clear filters to reset both the name and tier.

Win rate on the Deadlock tier list is the number of wins divided by appearances for that hero. For example, 520 wins in 1,000 appearances give a win rate of 52 percent. The Matches column tells you how many games produced the rate you see.

Compare the percentage as well as the letter when you return to the Deadlock tier list. A small movement near a tier boundary can change a hero's letter. A move from 51 percent to 53 percent is a gain of two percentage points. When the snapshots use the same start date, keep the match count next to each rate so you can see how much the sample grew between visits.

Deadlock Tier List FAQ

Which matches count toward the Deadlock tier list?

Standard Ranked games from all rank brackets are pooled into a single result for each hero. Before comparing this Deadlock tier list with a high-rank chart, check the bracket and date range. Both determine which matches are counted.

What do S through D mean on the Deadlock tier list?

S is the highest win rate band, followed by A, B, C and D. The board assigns tiers before rounding the percentages you see. Two displayed rates can look close while landing on opposite sides of a cutoff.

Why is a hero Unrated on the Deadlock tier list?

A hero needs the minimum number of matches shown beneath the table to receive a letter. A new tracking window can take time to collect enough appearances. Until then, the Deadlock tier list displays the hero's win rate and match count with the Unrated label.

How often does the Deadlock tier list update?

Each day a sync job checks a fresh set of results for a complete hero roster and valid totals. It then saves those results for the next static build. If the refresh fails, the Deadlock tier list keeps showing the most recent successful snapshot.

Why might another Deadlock tier list rank the same hero differently?

Different sites can use a different patch, rank bracket, or scoring rule. A Deadlock tier list that weights pick rate can assign a different tier from a board graded by win rate. Look at those choices before comparing grades.

How can a beginner use the Deadlock tier list?

Start with two or three heroes whose playstyles interest you. Use the Deadlock tier list to compare their recorded performance, then spend several matches practicing one. Keep a backup you can play comfortably and revisit the board when you want to expand your pool.

How does the Deadlock tier list handle tied win rates?

The board orders true ties by match count, with the larger sample first. Hero names resolve any remaining ties. If two values on the Deadlock tier list look identical, rounding can also explain the display.
