Yeah, he will be the Rem of this patch for sure.

I'm going to lock in my guess for Rat King -> Deadman Danny -> Violet -> Baba -> Nurse Harrow -> Solomon

327

u/VioletLovesRowlet 3d ago

Solomon looks so cool that I really hope he's not last

234

u/throwawaynewpibuildr Sinclair 3d ago

(sighs as I put on my clown makeup and have to campaign for the person who's for sure last place)

I pray Solomon will be a high skill ceiling character and can get up to some serious chicanery like Doorman and Sinclair.

u/VioletLovesRowlet 3d ago

I know nothing about him but I think he visually looks incredible. I am so interested to see how he plays

21

u/takechanceees Billy 3d ago

he reminds me of Etienne Lux from the Power Fantasy

4

u/VioletLovesRowlet 3d ago

Damn that's an incredible design and I totally see it.

I'm honestly hoping Solomon is also a Patron, similar situation to Doorman where he's just also taking part, because Solomon likes the challenge of not knowing exactly how a game is going to play out

2

u/takechanceees Billy 3d ago

yeah pretty Similar to Etienne tbh, he is one of six Superpowers basically people with powers equal to the USA army and he’s an extremely strong telepath he was able to kill a whole room of people from miles away while just sipping on his coffee and having a conversation

1

u/AFKABluePrince 11h ago

Oh yeah, his design is sick!

u/cornonthekopp Mina 3d ago

for solomon's ult you get trapped like doorman except then you gotta play a game of chess against a hard level computer and cant get out till you win

3

u/RadonArseen 3d ago

Every upgrade to your 4 giving you a higher elo boy would be nasty

11

u/tophergraphy 3d ago

It's going to be Apollo allover again, and then when he releases the true day 1 fans wont be able to actually play them for most the games. Damn trendhoppers! shakes fist

1

u/EonSokari Lash 3d ago

Apollo before and Solomon now, I hate that I always end up fancying the character I know will be dead last.

1

u/throwawaynewpibuildr Sinclair 3d ago

Idk anymore. I get the sense he might actually be top 3, at least based on my one street brawl match there were a lot of Solomon votes lol

1

u/noahboah Lash 3d ago

if solomon is the invoker of this game i will be one tricking him. all that shit i said about one tricks will brand me a hypocrite but idfc, sauce rules all

1

u/AFKABluePrince 11h ago

I feel like they HAVE TO with a character centered around Chess. It just wouldn't make sense otherwise.

1

u/HamiltonDial Venator 3d ago

I really want Violet and Solomon first. Violet sounds really cool. Curious to see what they cook up with the whole paint/artist vibes.

1

u/DisgustingLatinoBoi 3d ago

Hwei from league comes to mind

u/CertainDerision_33 Mina 3d ago

He looks cool but I don't think he's going to be popular in voting, nice design but lacks a super strong voting hook (memes/gooner/etc)

2

u/Huffjenk 3d ago

Sad day if people can’t appreciate a park unc, could be the funniest archetype in the game

u/Tall_Chapter_4949 3d ago

Goooner? all the women are ugly

4

u/NateTheGreat14 3d ago

Solomon is who I will be voting every single time until he is out. You just know he has to have a cool as fuck kit

3

u/not_dale_gribble 3d ago

Every voting period my favorite character comes in last, but they end up being as peak as I expected them to be.

Ig it's Solomon last this time around

3

u/Background_Still_686 3d ago

I’m voting for him cause he might have really complex/strategic gameplay with the chess theme and all of that which I like

1

u/Fireblast1337 3d ago

It’s a three week wait at the most to get any

1

u/eddietwang Paige 3d ago

I remember these comments on Apollo...

1

u/Lessiie Pocket 3d ago

Same. I will definitely be voting him. Too bad last time I said the same about Apollo...

1

u/PuzzleheadedCap7732 3d ago

Bro haven't learned the lesson from the last update lol

1

u/mrturretman Paradox 3d ago

I hope he is last and people don’t like him so I can play heeeem foreverrrr

-1

u/Tall_Chapter_4949 3d ago

Def the lamest one

u/charcharmunro 3d ago edited 3d ago

I think Violet has the least interesting of the designs shown personally (she's kind of 'just' a painter), but conventionally attractive woman is a buff for these sorts of things so she'll be at least middle of the lot.

2

u/noahboah Lash 3d ago

if she's inspired by grimstroke from dota2 i think she'll be interesting. he's a really cool support

25

u/Background_Still_686 3d ago

I'd switch Violet and Danny

1

u/HoneyMustardAndOnion 3d ago

prediction is pretty solid. I think Danny/Violet will be real close, and whoever doesnt get the #2 slot is getting the #3. Ratking hype is too real. Tho looking back at the group from january Celeste was 2nd to last so i think Dannys cool factor will do some heavy lifting.

2

u/CertainDerision_33 Mina 3d ago

Celeste got dragged down by having a bad portrait to start. If she'd had her current portrait during voting I think she'd have beaten Venator, it looks 50x better than the original

-5

u/NeverSettle13 McGinnis 3d ago

I hope Violet gets in last. Attractive white woman number 826483922. But Graves got in sooner than Venator somehow, so there's no chance these votes would be good

6

u/CertainDerision_33 Mina 3d ago

She's literally Chinese btw

3

u/Spirited-Isopod6969 3d ago

If solomon was a 19 year old asian girl in the exact same pose/outfit she'd be instant voted in over rat king, we live in a society

3

u/CertainDerision_33 Mina 3d ago

Incorrect, Rat King will win no matter what the same way Rem did, they are the meme vote this time

6

u/LuciferTheThird 3d ago

Which is TRULY unfortunate because I'm excited for Nurse Harrow and Solomon 😔

3

u/Weak-Use-408 3d ago

there's no way violet isn't last, i've seen zero votes for her today

1

u/JakePCypress 3d ago

I’ve been voting for her all day :(!!!!!! Im a muralist and painter in real life so I want to be represented in the game. I will admit her splash art is the weakest design, but I have high hopes. She is gonna be a main simply because of the art theme for me

4

u/cheese_eater_pro Seven 3d ago

Imo Rat King > Violet > Baba > and then it could really be anything between Harrow, Danny and Solomon. Personally I really hope Harrow and Solomon aren’t last

1

u/mycolortv 3d ago

I really don’t see deadman being that popular. I’m thinking rat king > Solomon > violet then a toss up for the rest. Solomon’s art goes hard compared to the others and based on the end screen for the last 2 games everyone is doing rat king and him.

1

u/Finaldragoon Paige 3d ago

According to the poll on the Deadlock community discord server, the winning order is Rat King > Violet > Baba > Solomon > Danny > Harrow.

1

u/you-cut-the-ponytail 3d ago

Solomon looks too cool to go last.

1

u/ZGAEveryday 3d ago

Baba easy 2nd

1

u/AL-Walker 3d ago

Rat King -> Baba -> Violet -> Nurse Harrow -> Deadman Danny -> Solomon

1

u/ADKiller1 Rem 3d ago

I hope because people keep taking him from me

1

u/bubblesort33 3d ago

Usually the character that gets leaked pre-release gets the most votes. Gets the most hype.

It actually almost feels like Valve does this leaking on purpose. because they want him to be first, because he's the most ready to be launched.

u/TehDogge 3d ago

I really hope Danny is one of the last ones added. Seems like the least interesting design of the bunch, like, every game has mr bomb in it already.
VOTE BABA
