About Deadlock

Out for stiff competition with Dota 2 and LoL, Deadlock is the brand-new PvP game by Valve that combines the elements of MOBA and Third-Person Shooter games. Deadlock is the first of it's kind, as most MOBAs that are available right know present a top-down view. Similar to a MOBA, Deadlock has a ton of playable characters with a huge variety of abilities with a decent amount of learning curve. Deadlock also has given huge priority to a mechanic that is not really popular in MOBA games, Movement. So far, the game is shaping to be a great E-sports title.

Why Ping Matters in Deadlock

Isn't it obvious? Unlike traditional MOBA titles, Deadlock is a third person game at the end of the day. Which means aiming is very important. So if ping can matter so much in a game like Fornite, why shouldn't it matter in Deadlock? On top of that, a lot of weapons and abilities of different characters in Deadlock have travel time. So if your latency is high, there will be a significant delay between when you are pressing the button and when your character is shooting or using an ability. And if your shooting and ability usage is delayed, then good luck winning fights. Though, it is highly recommended that you aim around 40ms ping, but anything close to 60ms should be good enough.

Optimal Network Settings

Just make sure that you are not using any sort of VPN while playing Deadlock. Deadlock uses Valve's SDR or Steam Datagram Relay, so using a VPN will disrupt the routing. Also, you can always use out ping test tool to find out the best possible server, then use any routing app to select that server.

Troubleshooting Connection Issues

In case of issues like high ping, lag, and rubberbanding in Deadlock, we recommend: 1) You check the status of the servers of Deadlock first from the dedicated server status page by Lockbuilds , to see if they are up or down. 2) Make sure that your Nat Type is not Strict. It should be either Open or Moderate. 3) As we said earlier, make sure you don't have any VPN or any downloads running in the background. 4) Picking a wired Ethernet connection is recommended over WiFi. 5) Then there is always the option of trying Cloudfare DNS(1.1.1.1) or Google DNS(8.8.8.8).

Deadlock Network FAQ

What is a good ping for Deadlock?

If you are looking to play competitively, you should aim for under 60ms. Pro players typically play at under 30ms. Just make sure that your ping doesn't go above 120ms as it will negatively impact gameplay.

Does tick rate affect my experience?

Deadlock operates at Source 2 server-based. Higher tick rates lead to more responsive hit registration. Your actions and how quickly they are registered in-game are determined by your ping and tick rate combined.

Which server region should I choose?

Use our Ping Test tool to figure out your latency with all the regions, and pick the one with the lowest.

How can I reduce my ping?

Pick a wired Ethernet connection if you can, as WiFi tend to bring a lot of connection issues. Fiber connections are better than the traditional ones. Close applications that are hogging all your bandwidth. If you are going to use a WiFi router, just make sure you have QoS enabled on it. Trying Cloudflare or Google DNS can help in a lot of cases.
