    I just got it and have already put dozens of hours into it. I can definitely see it being the next big multiplayer game.

    However, I already see some of the same problems that other multiplayer games have. Matchmaking struggles to make fair matches. There’s toxicity when games start to snowball towards one team. Lots of players will disconnect midway through a match if they don’t think they’ll win. These things are common in pretty much every multiplayer game now but I wonder if Valve will find a way to mitigate it.

      I have played Deadlock 65 hours in two weeks so yeah this will be an amazing game no doubt about it.

      The latest patch already attempts to fix some of the behavior problems like leaving.

      All I see is a game still in very active development but listening to the community to fix stuff.

      We were frustrated by Seven and Talon but last patch nerfed them.

      Really confident for the success of this game.

      I just think it won’t be a game for everyone. MOBA are hard, deadlock is definitely very hard to master and has a pretty steep learning curve. With just 21 heroes it’s already very deep on what you can do as a team.

      Amazing game. Frustratingly hard but amazing.
