Meepo for Deadlock: Alferd

[deadlock.my | firefly]

Role: Macro DPS / Map Pressure
Difficulty: Very High
Core Rule: You control one body at a time. Others act as creeps or follow queued intent.

Passive — Distributed Body​

Alferd exists as multiple bodies (“Instances”).

Rules​

• All instances:
  • Share items
  • Share XP
  • Share cooldowns
• Each instance has:
  • Its own HP
  • Its own stamina
  • Its own position
• Only one instance is actively selected at any time

Control​

• Press 1 / 2 / 3 to instantly switch control
• Switching is instant, no animation lock
• Camera snaps, crosshair remains stable

Inactive Behavior​

Inactive instances become creep-like agents:

• Auto-attack nearest enemy
• Push lanes or defend nearby objectives
• basic dodging, basic aiming, no ability use
• Can receive queued actions in actively selected state

-----

Skill 1 — Marked Suppression​

Type: Hitscan / Point-scan shot
Cooldown: Low
Use: Pressure, setup, stamina denial


Alferd fires a precise shot from the active instance.

Mechanics​

• Applies a stacking debuff to enemies hit
• Stacks are shared across all instances

Stacks​

• 1 stack: Normal damage
• 2 stacks: Target is slowed by 50%
• 3 stacks: Each hit drains stamina

Stacks decay one by one after a short delay.

Rules​

• Inactive instances only auto-attack
• Encourages rapid switching to maintain pressure

-----

The defining coordination tool.

Activation​

Cast from the active instance.

Effect​

  • All inactive instances become invulnerable
  • Instantly teleport to the active instance’s location
  • Deal AoE spirit damage on arrival

Rules​

• Cancels all queued actions
• Does not require aiming from inactive units
• Damage scales with number of instances
• Can be used defensively or offensively

Design Intent​

Skill 3 — Pack Pressure (Passive)​

Alferd’s instances amplify each other when close.

Mechanics​

For each additional instance within range:

• +Bullet Damage
• +Spirit Resistance

Scaling​

• Strongest at 3 instances
• No bonus if fully split

Ultimate — Multiplicity Framework​

This ability defines Alferd.


Each level fundamentally changes how the hero plays.

• Can switch between them
• Enables basic split pressure

---

Ult Level 2 — Third Instance​

• Gain another body
• Increased Poof damage scaling

----

Death Rules (Critical Risk System)​

If one instance dies:

• 1st death: All remaining instances lose 25% current HP
• 2nd death: Lose 50% current HP
• 3rd death - Regular death (unless one of the instances respawned in base)

If all instances die:

• Full hero death
• Long respawn
• All instances respawn at base (normal respawn rate)

Rules​

• Damage is based on max HP
• Cannot be mitigated
• Encourages careful positioning and retreat

----

Queued Actions (FPS-Safe Macro)​

Inactive instances may receive queued intents:

• Move to location
• Push lane
• Defend structure
• Chase a target
• Go to base

Once completed, instance returns to auto mode.


==========

Short Lore​

Alferd was once Sinclair’s business partner.


They built the same technology for different reasons.


Sinclair believed in centralized control.
Alferd believed systems should survive their creators.


When they disagreed, Alferd didn’t walk away.


He split.


Now he fights as proof that:

• One mind is fragile
• Many bodies endure

Thanks, frankly I was a bit dissapointed with Graves, because all of her minions are auto-played, there's no way to macro them
