Deadlock has turned the game upside down for April Fools’ Day, changing two core components of the game. Here are all of the changes announced by developers earlier today.

Deadlock removes MMR & Hero Limits for one day only

Deadlock lead developer, Yoshi, announced in the game’s official Discord this morning that they would be taking away Hero limits per lobby and making all games played have no impact on MMR.

Essentially, Deadlock has gone unranked for the day, allowing for complete chaos in team compositions in both Street Brawl and the standard mode.

This change will likely last today only, so hop on now to experience Deadlock at its most chaotic. Perhaps this is even a glimpse into a future arcade mode for the game, once it releases!
