Editing Neon Prime (section)

== Heroes ==
A list of known ''Neon Prime'' heroes and their ''Deadlock'' counterparts.

Note: A number of unused heroes currently accessible in-game via console commands, like [[Cadence]] or [[Rutger]], aren't listed here because there isn't enough evidence that they were created for ''Neon Prime''.
