Shiv Builds

Deadlock Guru brings hero statistics, item data, builds, patch notes and reference pages together. Use the overview to find a starting point, then open the relevant section for its filters and full data. The site is a fan-made project and is not affiliated with Valve.

Read the homepage snapshot

The homepage displays the current patch label, ranked matches analyzed, heroes tracked, community builds and an update indicator. In the homepage snapshot collected on October 31, 2026, the patch label was 10-30-2026, with 1,203,634 ranked matches analyzed, 38 heroes tracked and 1,071 community builds. These are the homepage’s displayed figures at that time. Individual sections may update separately and show different totals, so check the destination page’s own patch and update time.

Explore hero statistics

The Top 10 table lists tier, hero, role, win rate and pick rate. Win rate is the share of recorded matches won, while pick rate indicates how often a hero appears in the data. For example, the homepage snapshot listed Graves in S tier with a 57.4% win rate and a 3.7% pick rate. Grades are described on the page as recalculated from ranked win rates; they are not a guarantee for an individual match.

Open all heroes for the roster and filters, the hero tier list for S–F groups, counters for opponents and item data, or synergies for hero pairs. The leaderboard leads to the rating table.

Browse items and builds

The Items block groups examples by Spirit, Weapon and Vitality. Select a category to see the displayed items, soul costs and shop tiers. In the snapshot, Extra Spirit was shown as a Tier 1 Spirit item costing 800 souls. The item catalog adds usage statistics, while the item shop presents a visual shop layout.

The Builds block highlights community builds ordered by weekly favorites. The snapshot’s leading card showed a Dynamo build with 23,145 weekly favorites. Popularity is a signal of interest, so open a build and check its hero, version, date and item path before using it. The build library adds hero, tag, language and patch controls.

Follow competition, community and patches

The Competitive block links to the competitive hub and distinguishes the live ranked ladder from sections still in development or planned. The Community block connects to the community hub and describes the status of builds, creators, events and discussions. Availability may change; check the destination section rather than assuming every planned feature is live.

The Patches block shows the latest imported update and a timeline of earlier updates. Open patch notes to browse the archive and check the date and scope of each update.

Find guides, news, tools and Wiki references

Use guides to browse the available topics, from beginner systems to hero decisions and advanced gameplay. News cards link to recent stories and the news section. The Tools block links to the available tool pages, including comparison, planning and map pages; open a tool to check its current state. The Wiki organizes reference topics such as mechanics, ranks, lore and the map.

The site warns that it is under active development and that numbers and pages can be incomplete or inaccurate. Check the date, mode and data source on the page you use, especially after an update.
