If you want to excel in Deadlock, you will have to gain an understanding in both the steep learning curve of a MOBA, but also the aiming fundamentals<\/a><\/strong> needed to out-duel your foes.

Let\u2019s start with the basics<\/a><\/strong>, the most important aim mechanic in Deadlock is arguably tracking, this is a game where the time to kill is high due to its MOBA nature, so unless you\u2019ve gained an incredible lead in \u201csouls\u201d, the game\u2019s currency that allows you to upgrade your stats and skills, you will need to sustain a consistent flow of damage onto your opponents in order to win your aim duels. Deadlock allows all types of movement mechanics, ranging from the classic sliding, dashing, and double jumping to things like teleporting or gaining speed boosts.

Being able to keep your crosshair glued to your foes as they dart around your screen can seem daunting at first, however, given enough proper aim training you\u2019ll learn to make quick work of your opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
