The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a massive, magical golem and the primary objective in ''[[Deadlock]]'' matches. Each team’s base houses a Patron, and victory is secured by defeating the opposing team's Patron. They are spherical, with a golden, mask-like face, and they can magically levitate above the ground. During gameplay, the Patron will comment on player performance, announce any major events, and offer boons that allow players to [[Level|level up]].

Patrons are formidable units that are found hovering around in each team's base. When an opposing [[Heroes|hero]] or [[Trooper]] walks within its range, the Patron will unleash a beam of energy at them, dealing very large damage over time. The beam itself is slow moving, and does not lock onto targets unlike the [[Walker]] and [[Guardian]] beams, which makes it fairly easy to avoid in the right circumstances.
