Pick rate measures the share of ranked player-match records across every rank containing this item. Win rate is descriptive, not causal: expensive items and winning game states can inflate results. Lock Lab always shows the sample and adjusts hero-specific results against each hero's own all-ranks baseline. Read the full methodology →

Weapon uptime

When you deal spirit damage to enemies, you also reduce their Fire Rate .

Suppressor functions as weapon uptime within the Spirit shop. The strategic value is increasing the amount of useful weapon pressure delivered before a firing window closes. Because it is a transitional purchase, the right comparison is the fight pattern it unlocks versus the other purchases that the same 1,600 souls could complete.

LOCK LAB ANALYSIS

When Suppressor belongs in the build

BUY WHEN
  • Reloads or low firing uptime are interrupting otherwise favorable damage windows.
  • Your hero can stay on target long enough for additional shots to matter.
  • The purchase completes a weapon breakpoint without sacrificing essential mobility or defense.
SKIP WHEN
  • Target access, accuracy, or survivability—not ammunition—is limiting your output.
  • Your damage pattern is ability-led and weapon uptime is only a secondary contribution.
  • The enemy can disengage before the longer firing window creates additional value.
DATA-BACKED BUILD CONTEXT

Timing, movement, and hero fit

Across the current all-ranks sample, Suppressor is purchased at about 13:10, or 36% through the average recorded match. That places it in the middle of the observed build path. Compare that timing with the next objective and the defensive answers already visible in the lobby.

Suppressor is being purchased less often in the 7d change window (-12.3 points), while its observed win rate moved +0.3 points. The high confidence label reflects 102,434 purchases. These are descriptive results: build cost, game state, and hero selection can all move item win rate without the item causing the outcome.

Shiv, Seven, Celeste currently produce the largest reliable Suppressor samples, accounting for 39,772 recorded purchases among the three leaders. Treat that as evidence of common fit, then compare each hero's adjusted result and complete build path before copying the purchase.
