Nix named the main problem of Deadlock: Streamer doesn't believe this game will get popular

Alexander “Nix” Levin believes that Valve has done nothing to develop the cybersport direction of Deadlock, because of which the streamer does not believe that the game will become very popular. Content maker is also convinced that the developers do not intend to solve this problem.

The corresponding opinion Nix shared on Twitch.

“Valve's problem is that it has done nothing to develop cybersports in Deadlock. If it doesn't, and I know it won't because it doesn't care about anything related to cybersports, then Deadlock won't be popular either because kids won't be motivated to play it.”

According to Alexander “Nix” Levin, Deadlock has a very high entry threshold because the game is quite difficult. The streamer believes that Valve's new MOBA shooter is no easier than Dota 2, but the player is also required to have good shooting skills.

“The big problem with Deadlock is the huge entry threshold. It's a very hard game, probably the hardest game there is. It has an entry threshold like Dota, only you still have to be able to shoot.”

Alexander “Nix” Levin is sure that if Valve announced a Deadlock tournament comparable in scale to The International, a lot of newcomers would immediately come to this game, striving to succeed in a promising cybersport.

Recall that earlier Alexander “Nix” Levin told why he does not want to return to Dota 2, stating a serious stagnation in the game meta.
