Omni and Yarn dig into Valve’s latest Deadlock patch, including movement changes, how they feel about ranked matchmaking, the soul economy, jungle farming, and changes to items like Spiritual Overflow, Golden Goose Egg, Trophy Collector, Lifestrike, and Cultist Sacrifice.We also get into why low-ELO Deadlock sometimes feels like everyone is playing a completely different game, whether Deadlock needs a more defined jungler role, the current state of Warden and, and why you should probably stop playing every match like you’re already in Eternus.Yarn guesses McGinnis lore and the deeply questionable source of all that green soul goo, and the dads check in on what we’ve been playing outside Deadlock—including Subnautica, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, and Crimson Desert.Topics include:Deadlock September 16, 2026 patchMovement and gun-cycle changesRanked matchmaking and rank shieldsLow-ELO vs. high-ELO DeadlockAbrams, Warden, Wraith, Silver, and moreSpiritual Overflow, Lifestrike, Golden Goose Egg, Trophy Collector, and Cultist SacrificeDeadlock’s soul economy and farming changesJungle camps and whether Deadlock needs a true jungler roleMcGinnis loreDead or Locked: Paradox vs. Mo & KrillWhat are you playin'?The usual deeply unnecessary dad behaviorChapters00:00 – Welcome to Deadlock Dads02:49 – The September 16 Deadlock patch03:18 – Movement changes04:31 – Ranked matchmaking and the low-ELO experience07:44 – Slows, Warden, and item changes 10:31 – Valve turns down the soul economy11:39 – Does Deadlock need a real jungler role?16:41 – Mid Boss, Doorman, and annoying strategies21:12 – Deadlock Lore: What the hell is McGinnis doing?32:47 – Dead or Locked: Paradox vs. Mo & Krill36:07 – Dad life37:46 – What else we’ve been watching and playingWe are not professional Deadlock players so we might be wrong from time to time.
