| description    = Shiv has zero interest in playing fair, which is why he relies on hit and run tactics to weaken enemies before he dives in for the kill.
'''Shiv''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. Seeking atonement for his past life, Shiv is a cutthroat monster hunter with a cause, conducting hit-and-run attacks and picking off vulnerable targets. Shiv can efficiently traverse the battlefield and catch up with his targets by making full use of his shotgun's recoil. Flinging '''[[Shiv#Serrated Knives|Serrated Knives]]''' to bleed his foes from range, Shiv initiates close quarters combat on his terms by dashing to them while '''[[Shiv#Slice and Dice|Slicing and Dicing]]''' through those standing in his way. By continuously dealing damage, Shiv builds '''[[Shiv#Killing Blow|Rage]]''' which enhances his abilities and allows him to be a one man army. Withstanding grievous damage via '''[[Shiv#Bloodletting|Bloodletting]]''', Shiv finishes off dying targets with a devastating '''[[Shiv#Killing Blow|Killing Blow]]'''.

Shiv's alternate fire takes {{#invoke:HeroData|get_alt_fire_var|Shiv|AmmoConsumedPerShot}} ammo rounds per shot, and has a knockback recoil that can be used for movement. The knockback can be removed by sources of [[Movement Silence]], such as {{ItemIcon|Slowing Hex}}.
 
The alt-fire deals {{#invoke:HeroData|get_alt_fire_var|Shiv|BulletDamage}}{{#invoke:HeroData|get_hero_scalar|Shiv|Level|BulletDamageAltFire}} damage per pellet, at {{#invoke:HeroData|get_alt_fire_var|Shiv|BulletsPerShot}} pellets per shot ({{#expr:{{#invoke:HeroData|get_alt_fire_var|Shiv|BulletDamage}}*{{#invoke:HeroData|get_alt_fire_var|Shiv|BulletsPerShot}}}} total).

=== Rage ===
 
After unlocking Shiv's '''Killing Blow''' ultimate, rage can be built by dealing any damage. The amount of rage built varies depending on the source.
 
Rage has a '''max value of 10''' which is required to be filled before becoming '''Enraged''', granting you the full rage bonuses.
 
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Rage build values
|-
! Damage type !! Rage built per damage dealt (%)
|-
| Weapon Damage || {{#expr:{{#invoke:Abilities|get_ability_prop|Killing Blow|RagePerWeaponDamage}}round4}}
|-
| Spirit Damage || {{#expr:{{#invoke:Abilities|get_ability_prop|Killing Blow|RagePerSpiritDamage}}round4}}

|-
| Heavy melee || {{#expr:{{#invoke:Abilities|get_ability_prop|Killing Blow|RagePerHeavyMelee}}round4}}
|}
 
Rage will begin to decay after '''{{#invoke:Abilities|get_ability_prop|Killing Blow|RageDrainDelayDuration}} seconds''' of not dealing any damage, at a rate of 0.25 per second (43 seconds total).


Rage only builds up from damage dealt to players (this includes [[Barrier]]s).
A loyal member of "[[The Baxter Society]]", an international order of monster hunters, Shiv travels across North America looking to put down creatures that prey on the living.


NOTE: These numbers are taken from the code for the game, but rage built per damage does not actually reflect in-game values.
While his less polished nature and criminal past make some of the more traditional members of the Society wary, no one can deny his effectiveness.}}
 
As a rule of thumb: Rage built from '''Weapon Damage''' and '''Melee Damage''' does not noticeably change with increases to weapon or spirit power, always taking roughly 18 shots at point blank or 4-7 Melee attacks (depending on strength) to build max rage. Rage built from '''Spirit Damage''' does scale with spirit power granting more rage the more damage your abilities do, however this is offset by the rage you build decreasing with spirit power, 100 Spirit power halving the rage built  (Imbued spirit power from {{ItemIcon|Surge of Power}} is not counted towards this, causing it to grant a lot more rage (to the imbued ability) than {{ItemIcon|Boundless Spirit}}.)

== Trivia ==
* Shiv has an [[:File:Monster Shiv model.png|alternate model]] in the game files titled '''"shiv_ult.vmdl_c"''' which shows an unfinished giant mole transformation, presumably meant for an old ultimate ability.
* Shiv is voiced by '''Greg Chun''', who also voices {{HeroIcon|Pocket}}.<ref name=":0">{{YouTubeCite|1=cB8SgHZF1GQ|2=Greg's top 100 Voiceover roles 2025}}</ref>
* In now removed voice lines, the [[Patron|Patrons]] said that Shiv "had been" a father<ref name=":1">{{PageRef|name=Sapphire Flame}}'s in-game [[Shiv/Quotes#Patrons|voice line]] (Shiv Start): ''"You've been many things, Shiv. A brigand, a father, a killer. But if you summon me, I'll make you a king."''</ref> and had a "monster inside him" called "The Beast".<ref name=":2">{{PageRef|name=Sapphire Flame}}'s in-game [[Shiv/Quotes#Patrons|voice line]] (Shiv Start): ''"Shiv, the monster inside you is not the Beast, it is ambition. Complete the ritual and you will finally be sated."''</ref> These lines were removed in the [[Old Gods, New Blood]] update.
* Shiv used to collect hairspray cans in [[Neon Prime]], presumably as an old version of his Rage passive ability.
* Shiv's pre-release ultimate ability, '''Haunt''' was nearly identical to [https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Lifestealer Lifestealer's] Infest ability from ''Dota 2'' and had him become surrounded by bats before leaping inside an enemy hero.
* Shiv's weapon name, the '''[[wikt:busted_flush|Busted Flush]]''', is a hand in [[wikipedia:Poker|Poker]] of four cards of the same suit (colour and type) and one of a different suit. It's also an expression referring to a promising thing that ends up failing its potential.
* Shiv carries an amulet on his hip with a design similar to the blood key from the movie [[wikipedia:Demon_Knight|''Demon Knight'']].<ref>{{YouTubeCite|_vujRFDWbVA|THE PROP SHOP 01: DEMON KNIGHT BLOOD KEY}}</ref> The amulet glows red when Shiv is at full Rage.
* "Playing With Knives in the Hideout" is displayed as one's status in the in-game Friends List when playing as Shiv in the [[Hideout]].
