Go deeper on Celeste with related Deadlock data: top ranked players of this hero, community builds, the full counter matrix, pair synergies and meta shifts across recent patches.
Celeste is a balanced B tier pick in the current Deadlock meta, running a 47.1% win rate and a 2.7% pick rate across 433,812 tracked matches this patch. Celeste averages 6.4 kills, 7.3 deaths and 12.9 assists per match, so every stat, counter and item build below is pulled directly from ranked matches and refreshed every 15 minutes.
The highest win rate Celeste players open with Light Eater, Light Eater, and Dazzling Trick, and that ability priority wins 66.3% of 10,476 tracked games. Early points into that path front load Celeste's strongest spike and lets you snowball through the laning phase instead of stalling into mid game.
Across tracked games Celeste finishes on an average 41,090 net worth with a 2.64 KDA. That number tells you when Celeste actually spikes: every item tier and ability upgrade on this page is ordered so the strongest win rate path lines up with that economy. Celeste deals around 36,553 hero damage per match, so the build path below prioritises items that scale into that damage profile rather than pure survivability.
The highest win rate build path on Celeste right now runs Sprint Boots (tier 1, 49.2% WR), Bullet Lifesteal (tier 2, 57.1% WR), Hunter's Aura (tier 3, 52.9% WR), and Echo Shard (tier 4, 58.3% WR). These picks carry the strongest individual win rates in their tier bracket across ranked matches, so stacking them in order gives you the cleanest data backed route. If your early game snowballs you can flex into offensive tier 3 and tier 4 items, otherwise the defensive options listed in the items tab hold the lead instead of forcing it.
Celeste is holding a 47.1% win rate this patch and ranks in the B tier across the full hero pool. Over the last few weeks that number has stayed flat, so Celeste is neither rising nor fading right now. Celeste sits in the middle of the pack, which means match ups and draft context decide the game more than the raw pick does.
Celeste loses lane weight against Viscous (-1.2% win rate delta), Grey Talon (-1.0% win rate delta), and Sinclair (-0.9% win rate delta). These aren't feelings, they are negative win rate deltas drawn from ranked matches with at least 50 head to head samples. When any of these show up on the enemy team, lean on the synergy picks listed below and delay your power spike items so you can survive the bad matchup into mid game.
Celeste pairs strongest with Graves (+3.4% win rate delta) and Seven (+1.4% win rate delta). Both partners cover holes in Celeste's kit that the worst matchups above exploit, which is why the duo win rates stay well above the hero's solo baseline. If you're queueing with a friend, these are the safest picks to lock alongside Celeste.
