Name: HazeRole: carry, damage dealerStyle: Submachine gun with high damage and stealthy movement.
We’ll start off with the best heroes for beginners with the easiest hero to master. Haze is a typical damage dealer, capable of destroying any enemy single-handedly. Among the assassin’s abilities: a dart that puts you to sleep, a smoke bomb that gives you stealth, a passive increase in damage to heroes with each shot, and a powerful ultimate ability that can wipe the entire enemy team off the map in a few seconds.
Now you can find Mist in almost every match – the character is highly valued in the game community. Fortunately, even a beginner can master the hero.
Gray Claw

Name: Gray Claw Role: carry, damage dealer, initiatorStyle: Archer with ranged damage and trap, ideal for team battles.
Another easy character for beginners, Gray Claw is a very powerful archer, capable of dealing a large amount of damage with a single accurate shot, flying through the air and shooting multiple enemies at once, springing a trap on enemies from afar, and launching an ultimate ghostly owl that will destroy a good portion of enemies’ health and interrupt their abilities.
Due to its flexibility, the character is suitable for both beginners and experienced Deadlock players.
Hell (Hell)

Name: Hell (Hell) Role: carry, damage dealer, initiatorStyle: A powerful starter with fire damage, capable of setting enemies on fire and restoring health.
One of the most popular characters in Deadlock Alpha. And this is not without reason, because Infernus is good at literally everything: from a powerful initiation with an area stun to dealing massive damage to heroes and escaping life-threatening battles.
For dessert: setting the enemy on fire with periodic damage, which is enhanced with the help of mysticism. And the hero also has excellent voice acting.
Kelvin (kelvin)

Name:Kelvin (Kelvin) Role: support, initiatorStyle: A master of ice who can freeze enemies, heal allies, and travel along a path of ice.
One of the most extraordinary heroes on this list, Kelvin can easily stay in lane thanks to his ice grenade and freeze beam, and then move freely around the map using a floating path. And his ultimate creates a comfortable ice dome that traps opponents and restores health to allies.
At first glance, Kelvin doesn’t seem like the simplest character, but one or two games and you already embody the hero’s strength in battles.
Bebop

Name: Bebop (Bebop) Role: initiator, damage dealerStyle: A robot that can attract enemies and start fights in favor of its team.
One of the most fun heroes in Deadlock. Bebop, like Pudge from Dota, knows how to lure opponents from a great distance and start fights at the most unexpected moment. And his ultimate ability with a giant Iron Man-style energy beam will kill anyone who comes close.
Although the hero does not take incredible damage from weapons, the robot’s skills make up for all the shortcomings.
Vengeance (settling of accounts)

Name: Vindicta (reckoning) Role: carry, damage dealer Style: ranged fighter with automatic sniper rifle
Reckoning is perhaps the second most damaging hero in the game. The demon spends a lot of time in the air, destroying opponents with powerful sniper shots, first pinning them to the ground.
Coupled with a competent constitution, the girl is able to surpass even Haze, who traditionally occupies the first place on the list of the most powerful heroes of Deadlock.
Seven

Name: Seven (Seventh) Role: carry, damage dealerStyle: An expert in electricity, capable of destroying an entire team with a competent ultimate ability.
At first glance, the Seventh looks like an ordinary hero: he is armed with a lightning ball, a short stun, and electric bullets. However, his ultimate ability changes everything: the character flies through the air and deals lethal electric damage in a huge area, receiving additional protection for the duration of the cast.
It is thanks to his ultimate ability that the Seventh is ideal for beginners. Even if the game is not going well, you can always apply a competent electric shock and win a battle or two for your team.
