Deadlock: The Magnificent Sinclair Build Guide (Abilities, Items, & Leveling Guide)

screenrant.com:

The Magnificent Sinclair is one of ’s newest heroes, joining the roster of characters in mid-January. Sinclair has a unique backstory, as this character is actually two different people: a married couple of magicians whose souls have been bound together by magic. Having died in an on-stage accident, they are now ghosts who are unable to be separated from one another, fighting for control of a single body. This manifests in-game by having the voice of the character switch back and forth between Henry and Savannah Sinclair after each death.

Though not as stylish as Wraith, what these ghost magicians lack in design features, they more than make up for with their damage output. Their gun, The Prestige — a nod to the 1995 Christopher Priest novel and 2006 Christopher Nolan film adaptation — is slow but it hits hard. As one might expect, Sinclair also has some magic up their sleeve which can also help take out enemies. Sinclair started off as one of 's best heroes, so they have already required a nerf. That said, these build tips should still hold up.

Before getting into the build you should use, let’s go over The Magnificent Sinclair’s abilities. Sinclair has a nice mix of abilities.They have a strong poke that works well in the early game, a clone that can be used for burst damage or mobility, and some crowd control. Sinclair doesn’t have their own ultimate ability; rather, they can copy that of a nearby enemy. The full breakdown of Sinclair’s abilities is below:
