Deadlock already has a great mix of hero shooter and MOBA mechanics, so I think a couple of features inspired by other successful games could fit naturally.
Buyback System (Similar to Dota 2)
Allow players to spend a large amount of Souls to instantly respawn after dying.Possible benefits:
- Creates clutch comeback moments in late game
- Adds another layer of strategy (saving Souls vs spending them)
- Makes late-game fights more intense and less one-sided
- Reduces frustration from very long respawn timers
Killcam / Death Replay (Similar to Overwatch 2)
After dying, show a short replay of how the enemy killed you.Possible benefits:
- Helps players understand what actually happened
- Shows enemy positioning and ability usage
- Helps players learn and improve faster
- Reduces confusion during chaotic fights
Why These Features Could Be Good for Deadlock
They already fit Deadlock’s design
Deadlock already combines MOBA and hero-shooter mechanics, so features from both genres could integrate naturally. Easier transition for players from other games
Players coming from Dota 2 or Overwatch 2 would instantly recognize these systems.If players know that Deadlock includes mechanics they already enjoy, it may encourage more people from those communities to try the game.
- Also, apologies if this isn’t the correct section for this post. If there’s a more appropriate category for suggestions like this, feel free to move it.
