While there will be an array of unique characters to choose from in this hero shooter, one in particular named Ivy has certain players ready to decide on their main and best girl. Ivy is best used in a duo and can slow or stun enemies, acting as a support that can link up with another ally. But, as one user on X\/Twitter said, this gargoyle with a newsboy cap and baggy pants is capturing love from the community for reasons beyond her gameplay. The poster explained how \u201cpeople knew from the alpha alone that the most popular girl was going to be the sentient gargoyle\u201d and not any of the other fine women in Deadlock such as Vindicta. The majority of the replies agreed with them, with one player explaining why Ivy was so popular: \u201cSometimes, all you need is a funny little goblin creature to win people over to a character.\u201d Another response pointed out how well-designed Ivy was as a character. \u201cHer design is beautifully done,\u201d they said, \u201cThe seam-like markings are such a nice touch!\u201d Some fans didn\u2019t need to know anything about Ivy\u2019s backstory or abilities to like her, as one comment stated \u201cI don\u2019t need to know a single other thing about her to know she\u2019s already Best Girl.\u201d Now that the playtesters have been able to openly talk about their experience with Deadlock and Valve has acknowledged its existence, fan art has already been springing up online. And much of it has been of Ivy the gargoyle. One quick search on X will show anyone access to plenty of amazing drawings of this gargoyle. From silly memes, to animations, Ivy has taken over the player base just by looks alone. With some already claiming that Valve\u2019s new game will \u201ctake over the world,\u201d it\u2019s only a matter of time until Ivy herself takes over the majority of character conversations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deadlock players crown \u201csentient gargoyle\u201d the best girl in the game ValveValve has recently lifted the veil for playtesters to talk about its upcoming online shooter, and fans already have their eyes set on Ivy, a \u201csentient gargoyle\u201d girl who wields a crossbow.
