How these matches work
The list is a playstyle translation: start with a character you know, then find Deadlock heroes that ask for similar habits.
Choose a character from another game that already feels natural to you.
We compare mobility, range, control, durability, damage timing, and team role.
The closest match leads; the rest are ranked by how much of that playstyle they share.
Matches are intentionally not one-to-one class swaps. A tank, flanker, or support can match across games when the job in a fight feels similar.
