Valve's back from the New Year break, and developers are rolling out updates across their game portfolio. Following Deadlock's shift away from bi-weekly updates, we anticipated a major patch, but Valve opted for a smaller, less intensive update to start the year.
This initial 2025 patch focuses solely on Yamato, implementing a minor nerf to reduce damage scaling and lower the attack speed bonus from Shadow Transformation's first level. Further adjustments include nerfs to Frenzy, Berserker, and Restorative Shot, alongside a slight rework of Alchemical Fire.

A more substantial patch is likely on the horizon, though predicting its arrival remains challenging.
It's important to note Deadlock's recent player base reduction. While some players may be engaged with Marvel Rivals, a consistent player count of 7,000-19,000 for a game in deep beta is respectable. As a reminder, Valve hasn't revealed any release dates or monetization plans.
