Deadlock's February Update: Minor Tweaks, Major Impacts

Valve continues its steady stream of Deadlock updates, this time focusing on targeted adjustments to four heroes and several items. The update, the fifth of 2025, marks a departure from a fixed patch schedule; updates are now released on an as-needed basis.

Calico suffered significant nerfs. Her "Return to Shadows" ability received a ten-second cooldown increase, with 20% of its speed shifted to Tier 2. The damage output of her Tier 2 "Leaping Slash" was also reduced.

Sinclair received a visual overhaul with updated sounds and animations. More significantly, his "Rabbit Hex" ability is now area-of-effect (AoE). Holliday and Wraith also experienced nerfs, though specifics weren't detailed.

Item changes include a reduction in stacks for "Ammo Scavenger," removing its health bonus. "Extra Stamina" and "Restorative Shot" no longer boost fire rate and weapon damage, respectively.
