'''Paradox''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. She wields time manipulation with potent disruption and slowing abilities. With a charged '''[[Paradox#Kinetic Carbine|Kinetic Carbine]]''', she can threaten her enemies at any range while damaging and slowing them with thrown '''[[Paradox#Pulse Grenade|Pulse Grenade]]s''' and well-placed '''[[Paradox#Time Wall|Time Wall]]s'''. At just the right moment, Paradox can activate her '''[[Paradox#Paradoxical Swap|Paradoxical Swap]]''' to change places with her target, dropping them into a dangerous situation amongst her team.


'''Paradox''' is a playable hero in ''[[Deadlock]]'', available since the start of the [[Early Development Build]].
Paradox is both the name of this Hero and the name of their Thieves' Guild, specializing in stealing the untouchable and breaking into ultra-secure facilities. Their motives are unclear, except for a certain level of delight that its members seem to take in snubbing the world's biggest corporations and governments.

Paradox. An artifact of time, and the name of a notorius thieves’ guild... one that prides themselves on constructing elaborate heists that target the most untouchable of individuals and institutions. What does Paradox do with the countless artifacts, state secrets, and celebrity paternity tests that they have stolen? Put it on display at pop-up museums, so that they can show the world that no one is out of Paradox’s reach.
{{AbilitySection
| hero_name  = Paradox
| ability_num = 4
| notes      =
* Paradoxical Swap does not interrupt channeled casts like {{HeroIcon|Dynamo}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Singularity}}.
* The position swap lasts ~1.25s. Neither Paradox nor her target(s) are able to perform any actions during this time.
* Once connected, the swap cannot be interrupted, ignores any walls, and will swap targets regardless of distance.
* The swap positions are based on when the ability connects. (For example, if {{HeroIcon|Sinclair}} copies swap with {{AbilityIcon|Audience Participation}} and teleports with {{AbilityIcon|Spectral Assistant}} before the swap connects, the target will swap to Sinclair's post-teleport position.)
* Both Paradox and her target(s) are vulnerable to damage during the swap.
* Swap damage is applied after the swap ends. T1 barrier is activated when the swap begins.
* The T3 upgrade also unlocks an Alternate Cast that lets the player swap a single target.
| interactions =
{{AbilityInteraction | interaction = Indomitable | text =
Paradoxical Swap triggers {{ItemIcon|Indomitable}} and {{ItemIcon|Cloak of Opportunity}}, cleansing the effect, so neither Paradox nor the target move. The projectile continues even if it gets cleansed and will still swap if it hits another enemy along its path.


Shrouded in mystery, each member of Paradox dons a mask and takes on the organization’s name. They are everywhere. They are nowhere. And if they want something, they are inevitable.}}


== Update history ==
After T3, if the projectile hits a target that cleanses Paradoxical Swap but another enemy is within the swap area of effect, the following happens:

|- style="text-align: center; background-color:#f0dbbb;"
* Any other nearby targets affected by the swap area of effect will be swapped.

* Paradox will move to the original target's position.

|[[Update: August 29, 2024]]
 
| - Fixed {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Paradoxical Swap|Size=20}} '''Paradoxical Swap''' Still going through even if Paradox dies during it.
== Kinetic Carbine Item Interactions ==
|-
|Update: August 15, 2024
| - Base ammo Reduced: 45 → <u>40</u>.
- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Kinetic Carbine|Size=20}} '''Kinetic Carbine''' Projectile size Reduced by <u>10%</u>.


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Kinetic Carbine|Size=20}} '''Kinetic Carbine''' Cooldown Increased: 24s → <u>28s</u>.
Due to unique nature of the ability (charging a [[Weapon Damage|weapon damage]] into a single shot of [[Spirit Damage|spirit damage]]) {{AbilityIcon|Kinetic Carbine}} has many unique interactions.


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Kinetic Carbine|Size=20}} '''Kinetic Carbine''' Speed Duration: 4s → <u>3.5s</u>.
=== Weapon/Spirit Items ===


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Kinetic Carbine|Size=20}} '''Kinetic Carbine''' No longer affects channels, cast times or things like Lash's {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Death Slam|Size=20|Hero=Lash}} '''[[Lash|Death Slam]]'''.
'''Weapon Damage''' items provide their bonus to Carbine.


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Kinetic Carbine|Size=20}} '''Kinetic Carbine''' T1 Max stop duration Reduced: +0.75s → <u>+0.5s</u>.
'''Conditional Weapon Damage''' items apply their bonuses to Carbine if the condition is satisfied at the moment of the shot. For example, having {{ItemIcon|Point Blank}} will make Carbine use its damage bonus if the shot target is in close range.


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Kinetic Carbine|Size=20}} '''Kinetic Carbine''' T2 CD Reduction: -8s → <u>-10s</u>.
'''Spirit Power''' items do not affect Carbine in anyway since it scales only off weapon damage.


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Time Wall|Size=20}} '''Time Wall''' T3 Silence duration Reduced: 3.5s → <u>3s</u>
=== Resist Reduction Items ===


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Paradoxical Swap|Size=20}} '''Paradoxical Swap''' Projectile size Reduced by <u>10%</u>.

=== On-shot Items ===
|-
|Update 07-18-2024
| - {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Time Wall|Size=20}} '''Time Wall''' Projectile stop duration Reduced: 1.25s → <u>1s</u>.

- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Paradoxical Swap|Size=20}} '''Paradoxical Swap''' Projectile size Reduced by <u>10%</u>.
* Items that apply their effects with Kinetic Carbine:
|-
** {{ItemIcon|Restorative Shot}}.
|Update 07-11-2024
** {{ItemIcon|Mystic Shot}}.
| - Fixed the following abilities changing their launch direction if the player snapped their camera quickly during the cast time: Ivy's {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Kudzu Bomb|Size=20|Hero=Ivy}} '''[[Ivy|Kudzu Bomb]]''', Paradox's {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Pulse Grenade|Size=20}} '''Pulse Grenade''', Warden's {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Alchemical Flask|Size=20|Hero=Warden}} '''[[Warden|Alchemical Flask]]''', Vindicta's {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Stake|Size=20|Hero=Vindicta}} '''[[Vindicta|Stake]]''' and [[Alchemical Fire]] (''T3 Weapon item'').
** {{ItemIcon|Weakening Headshot}} and {{ItemIcon|Crippling Headshot}}. Crippling Headshot's Spirit Resist reduction applies after the damage.
** {{ItemIcon|Hollow Point}}'s bullet resist debuff.
* Items that do '''not''' apply their effects with Kinetic Carbine:
** {{ItemIcon|Headshot Booster}} and {{ItemIcon|Headhunter}}.

** {{ItemIcon|Siphon Bullets}}' health steal.
** Buildup items like {{ItemIcon|Toxic Bullets}}.
* {{ItemIcon|Split Shot}} allows Paradox to fire 5 Carbine shots at once. However, it will only affect the first enemy hit.
* {{ItemIcon|Express Shot}} gives the smaller "Secondary Fire Weapon Damage" bonus to Carbine shot and immediately shoots a regular bullet with the bigger "Weapon Damage" bonus.


- Fixed {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Time Wall|Size=20}} '''Time Wall''' Projectiles and bullets being stuck in the wall for its full duration instead of for the shorter time stop duration.
=== On-spirit-damage items ===


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Kinetic Carbine|Size=20}} '''Kinetic Carbine''' Collision radius Reduced by <u>10%</u>.
Any items that trigger on spirit damage work with Carbine. For example, a single shot of carbine can trigger {{ItemIcon|Tankbuster}}, {{ItemIcon|Spirit Burn}} and {{ItemIcon|Mystic Slow}}.  


- Fixed {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Pulse|Size=20}} '''Pulse Grenade''' Not going where you had targeted if you moved quickly during the cast.

== Trivia ==
|}
* Paradox was named '''Chrono''' in ''[[Neon Prime]]''.
* Paradox is voiced by Elle Newlands, who also voiced [https://apexlegends.wiki.gg/wiki/Horizon Horizon] in ''Apex Legends''. Both characters are Scottish and use technology of spacetime manipulation.
* Paradox wears a [[wikipedia:Blue_rose|blue rose]] in her lapel, which do not exist in nature, and are only possible through genetic modification. In art, blue roses are a symbol for mystery and the unattainable.
** This may also be a reference to the [https://twinpeaks.fandom.com/wiki/Blue_Rose Blue Rose Task Force] in the television series ''[[wikipedia:Twin_Peaks|Twin Peaks]]'', which is tasked with solving impossible crimes, as well as a notable scene in the movie ''[[wikipedia:Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me|Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me]]'' in which a character wears a blue rose on her lapel.
* "Scheming in the Hideout" is displayed as one's status in the in-game Friends List when playing as Paradox in the [[Hideout]].
