Infernus
A burn-focused damage dealer who turns repeat contact into spreading fire pressure and explosive finishes.
Infernus wins through repeated burn pressure, forcing enemies to disengage early or keep taking losing trades.
Overview
Infernus is a playable hero in Deadlock.
Quick Read
- Mobility is above average, so this hero can proactively hunt angles and chase.
- Base durability is lighter, so the hero depends more on timing, angle, or reset tools.
