Keep digging with the rest of the Deadlock meta: full item tier list, in-game shop layout, community builds, hero tier list and the patch behind this win rate.
Stalker delivers -50% footstep sound distance, 50 bonus health, and 6s cooldown. These bonuses determine which heroes and builds below actually benefit from the slot, and why the win rates on certain heroes skew so far above or below the item's average.
Stalker performs strongest on Dynamo (52.8% WR across 530 games), Victor (52.3% WR across 1,253 games), and Haze (52.1% WR across 5,786 games). These heroes convert the item's stat bonuses into real win rate gains, usually because their kit scales linearly with the stats the item provides. If you play one of these heroes, this item belongs in your core build.
In terms of raw pickup volume, Stalker shows up most on Drifter (258,386 games), Calico (226,903 games), and Billy (195,463 games). High pickup does not always mean high performance, so cross reference this list with the best heroes card above before blindly copying a build.
Stalker is a base tier purchase with no prerequisites, so you can buy it directly from the shop without stacking components first.
Stalker sits at a 49.9% win rate and has barely moved over the last few weeks, which means the item is at its steady state pick rate in the current patch.
Stalker performs roughly the same across every ranked bracket, so the build advice on this page holds from Initiate all the way up to Eternus.
