How to use this board
Deadlock has an absurd number of timers, and seeing all of them at once is genuinely
overwhelming — nobody memorizes this board in one sitting, and you shouldn't try.
Instead, build it up:
- Hit None, then toggle on just Jungle — boxes and camps carry your early game.
- Once those respawns feel automatic, add Powerups.
- Keep layering: Guardians & Walkers windows, then Urn, Rift, Mid Boss, Troopers.
- Turn a category off once you know it cold — a smaller board is a faster glance.
Hover (or tab to) anything on the timeline for the full story. Solid diamonds are spawns,
hollow diamonds are breakpoints, bars show durations and phases, and the red→green ramps show
when objectives stop resisting damage. Your toggles are remembered between visits.
Playing right now? Hit Start on the clock at the match horn — the board shows a NOW
line, pulses anything spawning in the next 45 seconds, and lists what's next. If the clock
drifts from the game, drag the NOW line along the timeline or nudge with ±1s / ±5s.
Audio cues. Click the little speaker on any lane to arm sounds for it: a
pre-event ding 30s ahead so you start moving, a 5-second countdown, and a
ding on the event itself — pick any combination per lane. The speaker up by this
button mutes everything at once, and hovering it reveals a volume slider.
Custom cues. Click the Custom rail at the bottom of the board to drop
your own node — hover it first and a ghost marker plus alignment line show exactly where
it'll land against the other rails. Give it a name, set the time and the same three cues,
and it fires just like an official event. Click a node to edit it, Alt-click to delete.
