    Seven Hero Stats

    Deadlock Hero: Seven Weapon Stats

    This character has rather average characteristics. His type of shooting is bursts.

    Deadlock Hero: Seven Vitality Stats

    Seven Abilities

    Lightning Ball

    Deadlock Hero Seven: Lightning Ball

    Seven’s first ability is Lightning Ball. The hero unleashes a lightning ball that travels in a straight line, damaging all enemy targets in its path.

    Deadlock Hero Seven: Lightning Ball

    Once it reaches an enemy, the Lightning Ball slows down and deals even more damage. It is perfect for starting a fight or catching up to a fleeing enemy.

    Static Charge

    Deadlock Hero Seven: Static Charge

    This ability applies a static charge to the enemy, which then explodes after a few seconds, stunning the enemy and causing damage to nearby targets.

    This ability is highly effective for initiating a team fight or catching up with an opponent.

    Deadlock Hero Seven: Static Charge

    Power Surge

    Deadlock Hero Seven: Power Surge

    Power Surge enables bullets to inflict shock damage. During this ability, the shock effect from the bullets spreads to nearby targets, allowing Seven to deal massive AOE damage.

    Deadlock Hero Seven: Power Surge

    This skill also allows you to release attacks more quickly and to harass enemy heroes by using creeps.

    Storm Cloud

    Deadlock Hero Seven: Storm Cloud

    Seven summons a Storm Cloud that inflicts heavy damage on all enemies within its range. The longer enemies remain in the Storm Cloud, the more damage they sustain.

    Deadlock Hero Seven: Storm Cloud

    This ability is most effective when used during team fights with multiple enemy heroes nearby.

    Seven Skill Build

    When leveling up as Seven, follow this sequence:

    Start by leveling up Lightning Ball to zone enemy heroes during the laning stage. Then, prioritize Power Surge and upgrade it to deal more damage. After that, focus on leveling up Lightning Ball again to gain another charge. Next, max out the third skill, Power Surge. Then, allocate one point each to Storm Cloud Ultimate and Static Charge to keep up with opponents. Finally, prioritize leveling up Lightning Ball, Static Charge, and the ultimate ability last.

    We have opted to utilize this build because the primary damage will not come from the Storm Cloud request but rather from the assistance of the third Power Surge ability.

    Seven Item Build

    Laning Stage

    With the first 500 souls earned, we should buy Ammo Scavenger to convert every soul into extra ammo and spiritual power, allowing us to dominate the laning stage.

    Next, we will obtain the Hollow Point Ward, which grants us additional spiritual power and increases weapon damage.

    After buying Enduring Spirit and Extra Spirit to get lifesteal and spiritual power.

    At the end, purchase Sprint Boots and Extra Stamina. Both of these items will enhance our mobility.

    At about this point, the laning stage ends.

    Deadlock Seven: Laning Stage items

    Early Game

    After completing the laning phase, it’s essential to purchase Soul Shredder Bullets, as they significantly enhance our damage and life steal.

    Then, we purchase one of the crucial items in this build – Fleetfoot. It will allow us to maintain our movement while shooting.

    Next, we buy Tesla Bullets. They will allow us to increase the farming speed significantly.

    The last three items in the early game are Spirit Lifesteal, Mystic Vulnerability, and Endring Speed.

    Deadlock Seven: Early-game items

    Mid Game

    Start buying in mid-game with Improved Spirit. This item will increase our spiritual power.

    Next, buy Surge of Power and buff our third Power Surge ability. This will increase the duration of Power Surge to 16 seconds and give us additional movement speed when using this ability.

    Buy Pristine Emblem to get extra damage on enemies with more than 50% health.

    Then, we should buy Superior Stamina to increase our stamina and mobility significantly.

    Buy Fortitude for additional damage and movement speed.

    Deadlock Seven: MId game items

    Late Game

    Our first purchase late in the game is Boundless Spirit to increase spiritual power. After that, we buy Crippling Headshot. This item will significantly increase our weapon damage and give us additional lifesteal from bullets and spiritual damage. Next, we buy Escalating Exposure to increase spiritual damage. The last item to buy is Unstoppable.

    Deadlock Seven: Late-game items

    Conclusion

    This build enables Seven to deal massive damage with weapons and gives it a very high movement speed. This lets you quickly move across the map and actively participate in fights. For more information about Deadlock, check out Reddit.
