New Deadlock Hero Silver Overview: Skills, Role, Items

On February 2, 2026, the 3rd hero was released in Deadlock as part of the major update Old Gods, New Blood. This hero is Silver, a werewolf who combines strength, speed, and agility and is capable of dealing significant damage. Silver is a transformation hero that's heavily based on execution and thrives on dealing damage in her human and werewolf form. In this blog, we will tell you everything about the new Deadlock hero Silver, including her abilities and gameplay.

Silver Appearance

“Silver makes her living tracking down lowlifes, but today New York’s misanthrope lycanthrope plans on summoning a god. Fortunately, her career as a bounty hunter has prepared her well for all that the ritual requires. She makes quick work of adversaries by catching them with her Entangling Bola, Boot Kicking them in the face, and finishing them off with a Slam Fire from her rifle. But inevitably, the Lycan Curse comes calling whether she likes it or not, and her foes will regret being too close when it does. – ‘This should be easy. Won’t be, but I’m really good at lying to myself.’”

Silver has a successful career as a bounty hunter thanks to her incredible intuition, sharpened by her werewolf nature. She is described as “fatherless, drinking and smoking too much,” but aside from that she remains largely mysterious. Her weapon is a shotgun with a slow rate of fire, but this is compensated by her other strengths.

Silver Skill Overview

Let’s move on to an overview of the abilities of Silver. Thanks to her skills, she can be both an effective tank and a carry, while also combining good mobility and damage dealing.
