Deadlock Update for April 10, 2026

General

  • Parrying is now allowed while ground dashing in order to bring it in-line with air dashing.

  • Parry anti mash protection previously would last for 0.25s after the parry success, so you couldn't parry again for that duration. It is now for 0.25s only after the initial parry input is provided, irrespective of when the parry success happens. This means there is less delay before you can do a back to back parry when parry success is done later in the duration.

  • Medic Trooper missing health percent heal reduced from 16% to 14%.

  • Medic Trooper fixed regen growth per minute reduced from 4 to 3.

  • Subsequent CC reduction increased from 10%/30% to 15/35% (window from 8s to 9s).

  • Improved various abilities behavior when casting while sliding.
