Every update, all Deadlock heroes are evaluated for the tracklock.gg Hero Tier List. This tier list provides a quick and easy way to understand the current performance of heroes in Deadlock.

Ranking Methodology

Our tier list is based on a composite score that considers both Win Rate and Pick Rate for each hero. By combining these two metrics, we aim to provide a more accurate reflection of a hero's overall performance and popularity in the current meta.

The composite score is calculated using the following weights:

• Win Rate (80% weight): The percentage of games won when a hero is played.
• Pick Rate (20% weight): The frequency at which a hero is picked in matches.

Heroes are ranked based on their composite scores, which are calculated by normalizing win rates and pick rates to a 0-1 scale and applying the weights. This method ensures that heroes who not only win games but are also popular picks are ranked higher.

Tier Rankings

After calculating the composite scores, heroes are assigned to tiers based on their rankings:

• S Tier (Top 10%): Heroes with the highest composite scores.
• A Tier (Next 20%): Strong heroes with above-average performance.
• B Tier (Next 30%): Balanced heroes with average performance.
• C Tier (Next 20%): Underperforming heroes with below-average performance.
• D Tier (Bottom 20%): Heroes with the lowest composite scores, potentially in need of buffs.

This approach provides a comprehensive view of each hero's effectiveness and popularity, helping players make informed decisions when selecting heroes for their matches.

Remember that while our composite score offers valuable insights, personal skill, team composition, and playstyle can all impact a hero's effectiveness in any given match.
