Soul Urn
First spawns at 10:00, then every 5:00, alternating between lanes. If an urn is picked up early, the next one waits until it is delivered or expires.
Deadlock Timers: Spawn & Respawn Times
Find Deadlock spawn times for jungle camps, the Soul Urn, Unstable Rift, Mid Boss, bridge buffs and more. Use the quick-reference table or start a match clock to track what comes next.
Match Clock optional
Set it to the time shown in your match. Deadlockitembuilder can’t read your game, so the clock only knows what you tell it.

Deadlock Jungle Camp Timers
Plan your farming around small, medium and large camp spawn times. Camp respawns begin after the full camp is cleared, not automatically at fixed match times.

- Large camps8:005:35 after the full camp is cleared
Deadlock Objective Timers
Track major objectives including the Soul Urn, Unstable Rift and Mid Boss. Variable events are shown as estimated windows rather than guaranteed spawn times.
Unstable Rift
First Rift between 10:00 and 12:00, then roughly every 6–8 minutes after the previous one. A visual effect reveals the bridge about 80 seconds early, and the global announcement comes 20 seconds before it opens. Rifts are not tied to Urn deliveries.
Mid Boss
Available from the start of the match. After it dies it returns in 7:00, then 6:00, then 5:00 for every later kill.
Boxes, Sinners & Bridge Buffs
See when breakables, Sinner’s Sacrifice and bridge powerups become available. Timing rules can differ by location and whether an objective has been cleared.
- Sinner’s Sacrifice8:00About 5:00 after it is fully cleared
- Crates & breakables3:003:00 after breaking; some groups first spawn at 5:00 or 10:00
- Bridge powerups5:00Every 5:00 on the match clock
How to Use the Match Clock
Start the clock when your match begins, or enter the time shown in-game. For camps, log the moment a camp is fully cleared to calculate its next expected respawn.
- Press Start at 0:00, or type the in-game time and press Set time.
- Nudge it with −5s / +5s if it drifts from your game.
- Tap “Cleared now” when you finish a whole camp, or “Rift spawned now” / “Killed now” for objectives.
- Watch Next Up for the soonest events. Reset all clears everything.

Deadlock Timers FAQ
When do jungle camps spawn in Deadlock?
Current reference sources list small camps at 2:00, medium camps at 5:00 and large camps at 8:00. Each camp has its own respawn interval after a full clear.
Do Deadlock jungle camps respawn automatically?
No. The respawn timer begins after the entire camp is cleared. Clearing only some of the camp does not start a fresh timer.
When does the Soul Urn spawn?
The Soul Urn is scheduled to first appear at 10:00 and generally follows five-minute match-clock intervals. Its availability can also depend on the current urn state.
When do Unstable Rifts spawn in Deadlock?
The first Unstable Rift spawns between 10:00 and 12:00. Later Rifts appear approximately every 6–8 minutes after the previous Rift. A location-revealing visual effect appears around 80 seconds before the spawn, with a global announcement 20 seconds beforehand. Rifts spawn on a random side-lane bridge and do not require an Urn delivery.
When does Mid Boss spawn and respawn?
Mid Boss is available from the beginning of a match. After it is defeated it returns 7 minutes later the first time, 6 minutes the second time and 5 minutes after that. Verify the active game rules before relying on a timer.
When do boxes and Sinner’s Sacrifice spawn?
Most early breakables appear around 3:00, with location-specific exceptions. Sinner’s Sacrifice is listed at 8:00 in recent references and respawns after its clear condition is met.
Can the match clock sync automatically?
No. The match clock is manually controlled. Set it to your in-game time and log clears yourself to estimate respawns.
