Silver Counters & Counter Picks

Who counters Silver in Deadlock? Heroes Silver is strong against and heroes it struggles against, ranked by win rate over recent matches.

Getting a jump on squishier setup heroes is where Silver shines. Sinclair, Mina, and Paradox all want space to line up their control and burst, and Silver pressures them before they settle, punishing anyone caught out of position or mid-cast. The trouble comes against durable, self-sufficient duelists. Seven, Graves, and Victor can take a hit and answer back with their own sustained output, so trading straight up favors them and leaves Silver short. Silver wants clean picks, not extended slugfests against tanky front-liners. Draft tip: pick Silver into a squishy, positioning-dependent enemy lineup and avoid it when they field bulky, self-reliant fighters.
