Hidden Vending Machines that give you extra Souls:

Did you know that there are Vending Machines that give you Souls? We didn’t until recently, and most of your opponents won’t know either initially.

How does the Vending Machine work? It contains little Souls balls, and once you hit the machine, it decreases your health and drops one Soul ball after another. Once you have hit it long enough and lost a lot of health, the machine pops open and gives you all its remaining souls.

Where do I find the Vending Machines in Deadlock?

The Vending Machines are located between the two outer lanes. So, in between purple and blue and in between yellow and orange.

These Vending Machines may cost you some health, but they are a great, fast way to earn Souls that can be used to upgrade your items and increase your odds of winning a game.

The Hidden Passage at your Spawn

You may have already seen the metal door in your spawn, next to the barrier wall where you run out of your spawn to protect your base when enemies are already closing in on your Patron.

But have you ever tried going through it? Well, we did for you and found out that a little hidden passage gets you behind enemy lines in case they are already very close to your base.

You can either shoot out of the right side, as seen in this screenshot or continue the path to the left and get dropped behind your opponents to start a sneak attack from behind. This is very useful, especially in the late game.

How to have Infinite Ammo in Deadlock?

This may sound like bait, but it is true. Deadlock offers us players such excellent movement that you can even turn your ammo up to unlimited if moving right.

You may ask, “How do I get Infinite Ammo in Deadlock?” Well, by simply sliding with your character, you will notice that your ammo symbol changes from, for example, 14/28 bullets available to the “infinity” symbol.

Dropping of the zipline instantly

The zipline can be used in many ways. Primarily for fast movement out of your base but back into your base when you want to heal quickly. It is essential to improve your zipline usage because having fast rotations is crucial for mid and late-game.

One feature that the devs of Deadlock built-in was the ability to drop off the zipline instantly to join the battlefield fighting within a second. By holding down the crouch button while ziplining, you immediately drop to the ground and be able to fight in an instant.

How to master your dash jump

Movement in Valves shooter Deadlock is excellent and takes some new approaches to shooter movement. Running by default and depending on your character, you have more or fewer bars around your crosshair that indicate how many times you can use your fast movement or jump until your stamina runs out. When your stamina suddenly flashes blue, this indicates the perfect timing for a dash jump.

One dash jump uses as much stamina as two regular dashes but covers a substantially longer distance, making this mechanic extremely useful for engaging or fleeing fights.
