Despite her low success rate, they believe this character stands out as a great starting point for beginners. Valve\u2019s latest game loves to thrust players straight into chaotic 6v6 battles and watch them do their best to grasp the basics of runes and soul farming. Unless you\u2019re already a seasoned MOBA player, you can easily get lost in the basics. Sure, there is a hero sandbox and a tutorial section, but they\u2019re easy to miss if you\u2019re not looking for them. More obvious are the \u201cGreat for new players\u201d tags. These tags, added by Valve, signal which heroes they think are best for beginners. But here\u2019s where things get interesting: Deadlock\u2019s worst-performing hero, Vindicta, also has one of these green tags. Valve may say she\u2019s good for beginners, but the stats tell a different story. Despite her terrible win rate, comments on a popular thread on the Deadlock subreddit argue that Vindicta is the perfect character for newcomers because her abilities are among the simplest to grasp. Vindicta is easy to pick up, especially for those who are more comfortable with shooter mechanics. You shoot your gun, and it does damage \u2013 simple as that. If you snipe, it does even more damage. She can deal significant damage from a distance, which is different from most other heroes. That means players can basically hold down the left mouse button and occasionally snipe to do pretty well. One player said, \u201cI started playing with Vindicta and got the hang of her almost immediately.\u201d Another highly upvoted comment noted, \u201cProbably using \u2018you\u2019ll understand skills and what to do\u2019 instead of \u2018you\u2019ll probably win\u2019 logic to differentiate the heroes.\u201d Even though Deadlock is still in its invite-only playtest phase, it has already broken 170,000 online players. The game is far from what Valve initially envisioned in its concept art, but it\u2019s already built a passionate community that loves to debate and defend its heroes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deadlock\u2019s worst hero is the best for beginners Valve\/DexertoDeadlock\u2019s playerbase recommends the worst hero for new players.
