'''Billy''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. A white hot ball of rage, furious at the very notion of... something. Billy is a chaotic front-liner who never backs down from a challenge. With Rising Ram he gets up close and personal, before slamming down with Bashdown to create shockwaves through his enemies. Running isn't even an option when Billy can use his ultimate Chain Gang to grapple enemies and pull them back in. A quick swig from his bottle gets him Blasted, and his enemies totally wrecked.

From looting to public vandalism, Billy makes sure anyone who can be bothered to listen gets to hear "the truth". Don't ask him how he got the goat head.


Billy was released on [[Update:August 20, 2025|August 20, 2025]] as the second hero of the [[Update:August 18, 2025|Six New Heroes]] update (first winner of hero vote).

Billy has a passive that alters his [[Melee Attack|light melee attacks]]. He can use light melees faster than other heroes (shorter recovery time), gets slowed less when using light melees, and his [[Reload Time|reload]] is not interrupted by light melees. This allows Billy to hit the [[Sinner's Sacrifice]] jackpot & break {{HeroIcon|McGinnis}}' {{AbilityIcon|Spectral Wall}} segments faster than other heroes if he uses only light melee.

Additionally, he can restore ammo when hitting melees once he unlocks his Blasted ability, as detailed below.

* Rising Ram has a wind-up period of 0.4 seconds before charging forward. During this time, the trajectory of the charge can be changed via aiming, but adjustments become progressively more difficult as the wind-up is finishing.
** Assuming Billy is in the air, Rising Ram has up to a straight angle that Billy will charge when descending (straight down) until landing; upon arrival, Billy will continue the remainder of the charge laterally, in whichever direction the model is facing. Conversely, Rising Ram only has up to approximately 50 degrees of climb when ascending, even if aiming directly upwards.
* The T3 upgrade's {{DataProp|Rising Ram|Upgrades.3.MaxHealthBuffPct}}% Max Health boost works differently from the Max Health granted by {{AbilityIcon|Blasted}} or {{ItemIcon|Siphon Bullets}}. It instead scales his original health value and max health by +10%, effectively keeping him at the same percentage before and after. It is unknown if this is intentional.

* Casting Chain Gang will start a 2.8 second long period during which Billy sends out tethers within 12 meters. After that period concludes, all enemies with tethers remaining will be pulled within 4 meters of Billy.
** The duration of this cast is unaffected by [[Ability Duration]] modifiers, such as {{ItemIcon|Duration Extender}}, and is un-[[Crowd Control#Interrupt|Interruptable]]. 
** As Chain Gang is not considered a channel, Billy retains full usage of his weapon, movement, and abilities during this time.
 
* Chain Gang's tether will shatter after breaking line of sight with a hard wall or via a [[Cosmic Veil]] for at least 1 second.
** However, if that enemy hero re-establishes line of sight 𝘢𝘯𝘥 is within the area of effect while Chain Gang's cast period is still active, they will become re-tethered, and will still be pulled towards Billy after the cast has concluded.
* While Billy cannot innately cancel Chain Gang, entering certain inactionable states, such as using {{ItemIcon|Ethereal Shift}} or grabbing a [[Zipline]], will cause the ability to be canceled.
