Deadlock Night Shift

@synqueue I thought I made the tweet, and apparently did not. My bad! - ZP

@DLNightShift is there any reason bans and picks werent posted for last week

Time to see how another week of play on the new patch has impacted play at the top levels. In EU, Abrahams is looking to reclaim the throne after two back to back losses. In NA, we see the return of No Earnings who have been lighting up the scrimbucks within the last week. Your next shift starts tomorrow at 4PM EST!

Our entire talent & production team was about to get Rem ulted, so we had to wrap up the show before we had a chance to show the item prio for this week. But no worries, we have the data for you RIGHT HERE!

Showing the teaser of this during the EU / NA halftime today!

Note: Hydra Nation was invited this week, but declined the invite for NA.

With a new patch comes new volatility as Shift #29 looms. Abrahams looks to bounce back after losing the streak last week - have they figured out the new patch? And while the DLNS MLC streak continues, they lost for the first time ever to BWC this weekend. Will Mo be banned? It all goes down tomorrow at 4 PM EST! (Note: One hour earlier for those in EU!)

@Murbles_Derry Hydra Nation declined the invite this week.

@DLNightShift No hydranation ?

Introducing Bonus Pay! Starting with Shift #29 we are implementing a 'Bonus Pay' bounty system to spice up Deadlock competition. If a team defends their title we will be adding money to their bounty. Every week, challenging teams will compete for not only the normal prize pool but also to snatch the champ's accumulated bounty. If a challenging team wins just one map against the defending champs, they will still take 50% of the bounty. However, if a champion team defends their title for 5 consecutive weeks, they will take home whatever is left of their bounty. There is even more incentive now for teams to take down the top dogs, and for champions to crush all challengers.

To help digest the "small patch", we put all the changes into a single graphic. Magnifying glass not included. We are live on Twitch & YouTube right now discussing all of the changes!

Turns out a magnifying glass was not nearly enough to make sense of this. A full resolution version of the graphic is available at dlns.gg/bigpatch.jpg

Shift 28 saw many themes in the meta repeat as Shift 27. But hey, Mo took down Celeste in one of these games which was awesome. Look below if you're curious who stood out in this week's Shift!

Locked In is back with another Name That Thing! This time we have the legendary DOTA2 talent @SirActionSlacks testing his Deadlock knowledge vs @ubershouts and @jakeow Check out the video here: youtu.be/73Bb3EiQw7k

On the eve of a potential balance patch, a new Shift approaches. Familiar faces, but rumors of improvement in both EU and NA abound. Is this the week @Abrahams_DL and @MeleeCreepsDL get tested? Gotta clock in to find out! (Now with actual fixed date. Oops.)

@MimiMelancholy @Abrahams_DL @MeleeCreepsDL That's a uh, oopsie. Will repost

@DLNightShift @Abrahams_DL @MeleeCreepsDL why does it say march 3rd

Shift #28 is tomorrow, with the potential for a balance patch hitting before the show! Who do you want to see buffed before the Shift starts?

Lore accurate Vyper for how it turns the lobby into a game where everyone on both teams is pissed at Vyper lmao.
