Shiv Hero Guide & Build Tips
The following are some basic tips and tricks for playing Shiv in Deadlock and playing this build as best as possible.
- This build doesn’t require you to stay back or dive in, but you can do both pretty effectively. Pick your targets selectively and consider reserving your Slice & Dice for escaping, rather than engaging.
- Your Serrated Knives are your key to big damage in this build, so look for enemies you can reliably hit.
