After the July 4th Deadlock patch update, the best and worst heroes in the game, along with many items, have all undergone gib changes. So, in the wake of all of that change, here is our updated hero tier list for July 2025.
This tier list is intended for all ranks of play, aiming to identify which heroes are most viable, most consistently. This comes right after the July 4th patch, which can be viewed in full here.
For more on how we arrived at this list and individual hero breakdowns, be sure to check out our YouTube video over on our Deadlock YouTube channel, Dead Unlocked!
