Sentinel

Deadlock

Norwegian operative Deadlock deploys an array of cutting-edge nanowire to secure the battlefield from even the most lethal assault. No one escapes her vigilant watch, nor survives her unyielding ferocity.

Role Information

Sentinel

Sentinels are defensive experts who can lock down areas and watch flanks, both on attacker and defender rounds.

Agent Guide

Overview

Deadlock specializes in area denial and defensive setups with her nanowire-based abilities. Her kit excels at punishing aggressive pushes and creating zones where enemies must proceed with extreme caution.

Playstyle

Play Deadlock as an anchor sentinel who can lock down sites effectively. Use her nanowire deployables to create defensive networks and her sonic sensor to gather information about enemy positions.

Team Synergy

Excellent with controllers who can force enemies into her utility, and duelists who can capitalize on trapped opponents. Works well in defensive setups with other sentinels.

Best Maps

Most effective on maps with narrow chokepoints like Split and Bind, where her nanowire barriers can effectively control movement.

Pro Tips

Place GravNet at common rush points to slow pushes
Use Sonic Sensor to watch flanks
Combine Barrier Mesh with other utility for maximum effect
Save Annihilation for post-plant or retake scenarios
