Deadlock – Mind the Birds!

What’s in this update

It was a close contest, but today we find New York's notorious pigeon lady leaving her favorite perch in Central Park and joining the fight on the city streets.

Tourists in the park might not think much of ol' Baba sitting on her bench - sipping tea and talking to her birds - but the locals have always suspected that something more brews below the surface. In the heat of battle, Baba throws out her *Threadsap*, a chaotic spool of yarn that steals the very spirit of her enemies, granting her greater power. While her legs might not be what they used to, her trusty bench comes to life with a creak of metal, allowing her to run, jump, and kick with impressive vigor. Parkgoers know it's best to stay on Baba's good side, as at tea time you might find yourself splashed with one of *Baba's Brews* (some of them much sweeter than others), and when tea time is over - *The Birds* come out to play... *"They think they know magic? Oh I'll show 'em some magic."*

Baba and her pigeons are available now! We'll see you back here on Friday at 2pm PDT to introduce our next hero.

Additionally, the end date for our first Ranked season has been pushed back to Thursday November 5th, 2026 at 2pm PDT, with the next season starting immediately after.
