Hero Labs
Hero Labs is a unique gamemode in Deadlock. It is a limited testing environment where new Heroes can be tested while they are still in very early development. There are currently 4 Heroes exclusive to Hero Labs.
Overview
Hero Labs can only be played during scheduled hours. In order to access the mode, players are required to have played 50 standard games previously.
Hero Labs matches are identical to standard games, save for the addition of new work-in-progress Heroes. Most of these Heroes are very early in development, some with temporary names, abilities, and assets that are all subject to change. Heroes in this mode will often be removed, updated, or re-added as they develop.
Players that queue for a new Hero and don't get them selected will be given higher priority in subsequent games until they get one.
