Map
The map is the area where matches are contested. Each match features 6 players divided into 2 teams, positioned on opposing sides of the map. Players start at a base, where they can purchase items at the Shop. The map includes four lanes, colored in the mini-map as yellow (York St), orange (Orchard Blvd), blue (Broadway), and purple (Park Ave), as well as a jungle in the map's center. Each lane contains 4 objectives: Guardians and Walkers, who defend the Patron.
The Jungle
The jungle is home to many of the game's objectives, including monsters that grant buffs to a team when defeated. (Explain monsters here.) Additionally, there are secret shops (hyperlink) surrounding the jungle, where players can buy items.

Territory
An important part of Deadlock is managing the clash of Troopers that occurs in each lane. Killing enemy troopers allowing allied troopers to move further into the lane extends the zip line available to your team on that lane. The ziplines on the map will show how far a lane is "pushed" towards the enemy base, how far your zip line can take you, and if any lanes are in need of help with a quick glance.
