What is a Deadlock sensitivity calculator?
cm/360° (centimetres per full 360° rotation) is the universal sensitivity measurement used by competitive players. Unlike in-game sensitivity numbers, which vary between games, cm/360° means the same thing everywhere: how far you physically move your mouse to spin your crosshair one full revolution.
How to use this tool
Enter your mouse DPI and your target cm/360°. The calculator converts this to the exact Deadlock in-game sensitivity you should set. If you don't know your target cm/360°, measure how far you swipe your mouse for a full 360° rotation in your current setup — that's your baseline.
Deadlock Recommended cm/360° Range
15–35 cm/360°
Faster gameplay means shorter mouse movements are common. For Hero Shooter like Deadlock, most competitive players use 15–35 cm/360°. A longer swipe distance (high cm/360°) gives more precision; shorter (low cm/360°) gives faster aim transitions.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good cm/360° for Deadlock?
For Deadlock, 15–35 cm/360° covers most competitive players. If you're playing Hero Shooter and prioritising precision aim, aim for the higher end of that range.
Why is cm/360° better than in-game sensitivity?
Deadlock's sensitivity setting is an arbitrary number that only makes sense within Deadlock. cm/360° is absolute — it tells you exactly how much physical movement equals a full spin, making it transferable to any game or setup.
How do I find my current cm/360°?
Open a game, spin your crosshair exactly 360°, and measure how far you moved the mouse with a ruler. That number (in centimetres) is your current cm/360°. Alternatively, enter your current DPI and sensitivity into this calculator and it will show you.
