Deadlock Silver Overview

Silver is a transformation hero that's heavily based on execution and thrives on dealing damage in her human and werewolf form. Her human form is great for large weapon bursts and spacing, while her Werewolf form is much better for tanking and surviving fights.

From the Steam page:

"Silver makes her living tracking down lowlifes, but today New York’s misanthrope lycanthrope plans on summoning a god. Fortunately, her career as a bounty hunter has prepared her well for all that the ritual requires. She makes quick work of adversaries by catching them with her Entangling Bola, Boot Kicking them in the face, and finishing them off with a Slam Fire from her rifle. But inevitably, the Lycan Curse comes calling whether she likes it or not, and her foes will regret being too close when it does. - "This should be easy. Won't be, but I'm really good at lying to myself."

Strengths And Weaknesses Summary

One of the best applicators of on-hit items such as Toxic Bullets and Inhibitor.

How to Counter Silver

Silver has a very weak laning phase, so make sure to deny orbs and harass her out of lane.
She also has a very low range and can be kited relatively easily.
Sliver is also very dependent on her execution, so buying things such as Warp Stone can easily dodge Boot Kick or Bola.
Make sure to Curse her while in human form as that is when Sliver is the most vulnerable.
