Item Tier List
As of Jul 7, 2026 (Current build), the community list for Deadlock Item Tier List is still forming — the ordering below is a provisional editor suggestion until enough players vote.
The community vote is just getting started
The ordering below is a provisional editor suggestion — clearly marked. An entry ranks once it has 3+ community votes; the live list publishes when 6 entries get there. Be one of the first to rate.

Deadlock's item meta never sits still: Valve ships balance patches on a near-biweekly cadence, keeps reworking the Curiosity Shop's tier structure, and retunes the souls economy underneath it all. The 06-30-2026 update alone reworked Urn into Unstable Rift and warped the game toward AoE spirit bombs and tanky frontliners, flipping which tier-3 and tier-4 purchases are actually worth the souls.
This board ranks the items current builds actually fight over, as voted by the community. If your favorite is criminally underrated here, that's what the vote buttons are for.
What is S-tier in Deadlock Item Tier List right now?
The community list is still forming for Current build. The provisional editor suggestion puts Spiritual Overflow, Ricochet, Transcendent Cooldown, Escalating Exposure at the top — vote to shape the live ranking.
How is this tier list decided?
It is community-voted: every player gets roughly one vote per entry (changeable anytime), votes are recency-weighted so the list tracks the current patch, entries need a minimum number of votes before being ranked, and results re-tabulate live.

Community-voted: every player gets roughly one vote per entry (change it anytime), votes are re-tabulated live with recency weighting so the list tracks the current patch, and entries need a minimum number of votes before they get a rank. No win-rate scraping, no single expert — this is what players actually think. Full methodology →
