Vindicta Counters & Counter Picks

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

Squishy, position-dependent heroes like Sinclair, Mina, and Silver hate being picked off from range. Vindicta punishes anyone who holds a static angle or tries to trade at mid distance, since she can tag them from safety and finish before they close in. The trouble comes against divers and pressure heroes like Seven, Graves, and Victor who don't respect her space and force her off her perch. Once they're in her face, she has little to answer with and gets run down. Draft tip: pick her into slow, grounded lineups and avoid her when the enemy has fast gap-closers.
