Seven (Gigawatt, 7) in Deadlock: win rate, pick rate, top counters and best teammates, from Batru's recent-match pipeline.
Seven counters & matchups
Squishier, position-dependent heroes are the ones who suffer here. Sinclair, Silver, and Mina all want to hold ground and control space, but they fold fast once Seven's stun lands and the lightning starts chaining. His ult forces them to burn escape items or scatter early, which breaks their setups before they get value. Against tankier, mobile targets who can weave out of the ball's range or just eat the damage, Seven has a rougher time closing games. He punishes anyone who commits to a fixed spot. Draft tip: pick Seven into grouped, immobile enemy lineups; avoid him when they can spread out and dive you.

Seven synergies
Seven wants partners who can lock enemies in place so his ball connects and his stun catches multiple people. Haze fits well because her ult pins a clustered team together, giving Seven a stationary group to chain lightning through while they can't reposition. That overlap turns two separate ults into one long window where the enemy can't act. What Seven brings back is early lane pressure and burst clear, so a scaling carry like Haze gets the space and tempo to reach her item spikes safely.
