- Card Trick generates a random card out of an 8-card stack (2 of each suit, not counting jokers). Once the stack is depleted, it generates a new one. Additionally, it has an 11% (1/9) chance to generate Jokers, increased to 20% (1/5) chance at T3.
- Hitting multiple units with the same Heart suit card will provide 50% healing for each additional unit hit (i.e. If a card heals for 150hp and hits two heros, that card will heal Wraith for 225hp).
- Hitting non-hero units with the Heart suit card provides 50% less healing.

For Wraith's Card Trick ability, cards are generated by dealing weapon damage, instead of recharging over time. The amount of charge gained is dependent on the attack landing on enemies, but the amount of damage dealt does not affect the amount of charge gained. Cooldown reduction increases the percentage generated proportionally (EX: 10% Cooldown Reduction = 10% increase to charge gain percentage)
| Action | Card Percentage Generated |
|---|---|
| Bodyshot | ~3.5% |
| Headshot | 5% |
| Light melee | ~8.33% |
| Heavy melee | 20% |
Hitting non-player units multiplies the percentage generated by 0.35
Background
See Wraith/Lore for more story content.
“The cornerstone of the New York gambling scene, Wraith's organization is about as open a secret as it comes. However, thanks to a non-trivial amount of bribes, shakedowns, and blackmail, Wraith knows that she's above the law.
Lore
Wraith's motivation for being in the ritual isn't clear, but it seems to be for a chance to get more wealth, popularity and power.[2][3][4] Wraith mentions that she wants to keep her wish as simple as possible to avoid loopholes.[5]
Wraith hosts weekly underground poker games.[6][7][8] She also makes bets on fights in the Bear Pit.[9]
Wraith describes herself as a "degenerate gambler",[10] "a female entrepreneur in a male-dominated industry" and "Florence Nightingale with a gun".[11] Wraith loves gambling because the nerves she gets from it make her feel alive.[12] She often offers to make bets with her teammates.[13][14]
Wraith owns a casino, which acts as her main base of operations.[15][16] As part of her business, Wraith lets customers take out markers from her. Her plan usually involves gambling with people until they owe her money, which forces them to take out markers.[17] Wraith claims to have built her criminal organisation herself, rather than inheriting it.[18]
Wraith has done business with the Mendoza Syndicate in the past,[19] although she dislikes Mendoza himself.[20] Wraith shows interest in working with the Seventh Moon,[21] but ultimately views them as a rival organisation.[22][23] The OSIC are aware of Wraith's business, but aren't interested in dismantling it.[16] Wraith has bribed some of the New York police to leave her business alone,[24][25] and she isn't concerned about Captain Murphy.[26]
Wraith employs 
Ivy's sister, Sophia Arroyo, to work for Wraith as an accountant to finance her college tuition.[27][28][29] Wraith makes Sophia work long shifts, which makes Sophia tired and affects her academic studies.[30]
Wraith has a long list of people she wants dead.[31]
Wraith wants to get an introduction to Maximilian Fairfax and 
Apollo's father.[32][33]

Mo & Krill,[34] the

Bebop,[40] 
Pocket,[41] and 
Vindicta[31] to work for her. 
Abrams,[6] 
Infernus,[7] Mo & Krill,[42] 
Silver[43] and the Shopkeeper[44][45] are regular players at Wraith's weekly poker game.- Wraith and Infernus have worked together in the past.[46] Wraith believes Infernus' work as a bartender is "boring".[47] She believes Infernus misses her, but he denies it.[48] While on the same team, Wraith tries to coax Infernus back into his criminal past.[49][50]
- Infernus tells Mo & Krill that he wants to stay away from Wraith.[51]
- According to
Graves, Wraith told Blackmore Academy students that play cards with her about Infernus' criminal past "with the mob".[52]
- Infernus tells
- Mo & Krill owe money to Wraith.[53] If they're on the same team, Wraith may say she called a favor to have them fighting on her side.[34] They regard each other as friends.[54][55]
- Ivy is distrustful of Wraith. She warns her not to approach Spanish Harlem now that the Mendoza Syndicate has been defeated.[56]
Lash mocks Wraith for betting on Bebop,[57] and Wraith teases Lash because he lost to Bebop "one time".[9]
Yamato views Wraith as her main hurdle towards conquering New York.[58] She hopes to take over Wraith's business.[59]
Dynamo warns Wraith not to take advantage of his students who frequent her establishment.[15]
The Doorman thinks Wraith is a "delight" and is grateful towards her since she's a generous tipper.[60][61]
Holliday hates Wraith and threatens to stay in New York to take down her criminal organisation.[62][63][26]
Lady Geist says Wraith "reeks of new money". However, she respects Wraith for her cunning and ruthlessness.[36]
Calico and 
Paradox show interest in working with Wraith.[64][65][66]

Trivia
- Wraith's hands are always inside her pockets, as her two magic arms perform actions for her.
- Wraith's current character model doesn't actually have hands. However, there is a work-in-progress Wraith model in the files that has fully modeled arms and hands, as well as new animations performed with both her real arms and magic arms.
- Wraith is currently the only hero whose Sprint Speed is directly affected by Spirit Power.
- Wraith has had 4 iterations of different designs and voice actors since her creation.[68] One of her earlier designs was a magician. That model was reused for the Metal Skin poster and for Sinclair's character model.
- Wraith's weapon was originally called Houdini's Shackles.
- Wraith's weapon is based on the Thompson submachine gun (AKA "Tommy Gun"), notable for its usage by organized crime syndicates in the early 20th century.
- Wraith's ammo clip size is 52 as a reference to the number of cards in a poker deck. Her original clip size was 50. It was changed based on a player's suggestion in the official Deadlock Discord.[69]
- Removed Patron voice lines indicate that Wraith's previous background involved a search for her father, who had suffered a mysterious fate.[70][71]
- "Gambling in the Hideout" is displayed as one's status in the in-game Friends List when playing as Wraith in the Hideout.
- Wraith's title uses the Storica font.
