'''Shiv''' is a playable hero in ''[[Deadlock]]'', added on August 15, 2024.<ref>https://forums.playdeadlock.com/threads/08-15-2024-update.16378/</ref>
'''Shiv''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. He is a monster hunter with a cause, conducting hit-and-run attacks and picking off vulnerable targets. Flinging Serrated Knives to bleed his targets from range, Shiv builds his Rage through damage and dashes up to his enemy with a Slice and Dice flurry of blades and a few powerful shotgun blasts. Smelling blood, Shiv hunts down any dying targets to finish them off with a devastating Killing Blow.
 
A former criminal, Shiv seeks to make up for his past mistakes by hunting down monsters on behalf of [[The Baxter Society]].
 
Shiv's gun has an alt-fire mode.
 
Shiv was added to the roster on [[Update:August 15, 2024|August 15, 2024]].

{{Quotation||
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.
'''A FATE'S TALE:'''


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.
Rage has a '''max value of 10''' which is required to be filled before becoming '''Enraged''', granting you the full rage bonuses.


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.}}

== Playstyle ==
|-
Shiv's Serrated Knives are one of the best early-game pokes, due to their large hitbox, long range, and Bleed ability. He is often able to hold a lane solo with these alone, especially when combined with his healing ability negating the need for a support-focused character. Mid- and late-game, Slice and Dice allows for an aggressive, up-close playstyle, especially when combined with high Rage.

Rage will begin to decay after '''9 seconds''' of not dealing any damage, at a rate of 0.25 per second (40 seconds total).


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Killing Blow|Size=20}} '''Killing Blow''' Bonus damage from Full Rage Reduced: +25% → <u>+20%</u>.
Non-player units grant x0.1 the rage.


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Killing Blow|Size=20}} '''Killing Blow''' T2 Now also Increases Rage Amp by <u>+5%</u>.
NOTE: These numbers are taken from the code for the game, but rage built per damage does not actually reflect in game values.

| - Fixed parts of Shiv's coat being considered a headshot.
- Bullet damage growth per boon Reduced: 0.5 → <u>0.4</u>.


- Gun falloff range Reduced by <u>10%</u>.
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 [[Surge of Power]] is not counted towards this, causing it to grant a lot more rage (to the imbued ability) than [[Boundless Spirit]].)


- Health growth per boon Reduced: +41 → <u>+35</u>.
''If you have any definitive information on how Rage works, please feel free to discuss more on the {{Discord}}''


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Slice and Dice|Size=20}} '''Slice and Dice''' T2 Reduced: +100 → <u>+85</u>.
== Weapon ==
{{WeaponCard|key=hero_shiv}}Shiv's Alt-fire takes two ammo, and has a recoil that can be used for movement. If there is only one ammo left, the Alt-fire can still be used, with no additional downsides.


- {{AbilityIcon|Ability=Slice and Dice|Size=20}} '''Slice and Dice''' T3 Now considers creeps for only half value.
The approximate movement distance from the alt-fire recoil (without items or level-ups) is as follows:
