Deadlock Cheats — Counters — item sheet for healing, death, melee, spirit
Deadlock counter item cheat sheet — practical item answers
Counter picks for healing, death immunity, melee, and spirit pressure — a gameplay reference, not a software overlay.
A deadlock counter item cheat sheet is a gameplay reference. Values move every patch, so treat this as a starting map of answers rather than a locked spreadsheet.
Healing and sustain
| If they rely on | Look at | Why players buy it |
|---|---|---|
| Hero and NPC healing | Healbane | Punishes healing and pays on hero kills |
| Melee trades | Rebuttal | Heals on a successful melee block |
| Spell blocks | Counterspell | Heals on a successful spell block |
| Out-of-combat regen | Fortitude | Regen while not fighting — confirm current numbers in-game |
Death immunity and buffs
Cheat Death is a late vitality answer to burst. Counterplay reported by players includes execute abilities and dispel tools such as Cursed Relic or Nullification Burst. Do not assume every execute works the same after a patch.
Lane and soul economy
Early weapon lifesteal, Headhunter, and Healing Rite cover different sustain patterns. Pair this sheet with shop awareness in-game — a software overlay is not required to learn counters.
