Coming to Deadlock from League, Dota or Heroes of the Storm?

Coming to Deadlock from League of Legends, Dota 2 or Heroes of the Storm? Your macro carries over: lanes, farming, items, objectives, and why the team that’s ahead usually wins. Your mechanics start from scratch, because Deadlock is a third-person shooter where you aim everything yourself.

This guide translates what you already know into Deadlock terms (souls, troopers, Guardians, Walkers, Haunts, the Mid-Boss and the Patron), then covers last hitting and denying with soul orbs, why everything is a skillshot, trading with cover in lane, movement like dash jumps, wall jumps and parry, abilities without mana, item categories and the 4,800 souls spike, roles without positions, objectives like the Soul Urn, Unstable Rift and Rejuvenator, and the comeback mechanics built into the game.
