Ivy is a strong S tier pick in the current Deadlock meta, running a 53.8% win rate and a 2.6% pick rate across 408,957 tracked matches this patch. Ivy's role leans sets up a power duo with a lucky ally, which shapes every item choice, ability upgrade and lane partner on this page. Ivy has disruptive combat tricks that slow and stun enemies. She's most effective when linking up with an ally, empowering her and her ally's guns as well as sharing heals. Ivy averages 4.7 kills, 5.8 deaths and 16.0 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 Ivy players open with Entangling Thorns, Entangling Thorns, and Stone Form, and that ability priority wins 61.8% of 9,110 tracked games. Early points into that path front load Ivy's strongest spike and lets you snowball through the laning phase instead of stalling into mid game.
Across tracked games Ivy finishes on an average 43,206 net worth with a 3.57 KDA. That number tells you when Ivy actually spikes: every item tier and ability upgrade on this page is ordered so the strongest win rate path lines up with that economy. Ivy deals around 29,577 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 Ivy right now runs Extra Spirit (tier 1, 55.4% WR), Mystic Vulnerability (tier 2, 58.1% WR), Torment Pulse (tier 3, 58.6% WR), and Diviner's Kevlar (tier 4, 62.3% 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.
Ivy is holding a 53.8% win rate this patch and ranks in the S tier across the full hero pool. Over the last few weeks that number has stayed flat, so Ivy is neither rising nor fading right now. That puts Ivy firmly in the meta conversation this patch, and makes it a priority ban target above Diamond rank.
Ivy loses lane weight against Rem (-1.0% win rate delta), Mirage (-0.8% win rate delta), and Vyper (-0.7% 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.
Ivy pairs strongest with Graves (+5.3% win rate delta) and Kelvin (+5.3% win rate delta). Both partners cover holes in Ivy'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 Ivy.
