'''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.

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 faster than other heroes if he uses only light melee.

* Bashdown can be held down to delay the slam and causes Billy to rise vertically.

* Billy rises 67.5 hu above his initial elevation if the ability is immediately released and up to 163.97 hu while the ability key is held.

* If Billy reaches the max height of Bashdown, all horizontal movement becomes sharply reduced.

* T3 upgrade results in ~27% damage increase for the ability, since Billy's Heavy Melee is roughly 2.32x of his Light Melee.

* Hitting a [[Melee Attack|heavy melee]] fully reloads Billy's ammo. Hitting a light melee reloads {{#invoke:Abilities|get_ability_prop|Blasted|BulletsReloadedPerLightMeleePct}}% of ammo, or reduces the reload time by {{#invoke:Abilities|get_ability_prop|Blasted|BulletsReloadedPerLightMeleePct}}% if depleted.

* In addition to melee attacks against players, melee hits on [[Structures]] and [[Denizens]] will proc Blasted's effects and extend it's duration while active.

Billy's wish is unknown, although the [[Patron|Patrons]] imply that Billy wants to change the world due to it being "corrupt and beyond saving."<ref>{{PageRef|name=Amber Hand}}'s in-game [[Billy/Quotes#Patrons|voice line]] (Billy start): ''"The world is corrupt and beyond saving! But if you summon me, I can help you change that."''</ref><ref>{{PageRef|name=Amber Hand}}'s in-game [[Billy/Quotes#Patrons|voice line]] (Billy start): ''"Injustice permeates this city like a weed! You know this. Complete the ritual, and together, we will build a new world!"''</ref>

* Billy hates everyone. He especially loathes rich people, such as {{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Billy}}'s in-game [[Billy/Quotes#Enemies|voice line]] (killed Lady Geist): ''"You New York elites can all go to hell!"''</ref><ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Lady Geist|hero2=Billy|number=2}}</ref> He does, however, compliment his allies when they're doing well.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Billy}}'s [[Billy/Quotes#Allies|ally interactions]]</ref>

* {{PageRef|name=Paige}} wishes she could give Billy a hug.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Paige}}'s in-game [[Paige/Quotes#Enemies|voice line]] (killed Billy): ''"Oh, I wish I could just give him a hug."''</ref> She tries to connect with Billy by seeing past his "mad at the world" schtick, but is unsuccessful.<ref>{{ConvoCite|hero1=Billy|hero2=Paige|number=2|hero_quote1=Paige|quote1=The whole "mad at the world" schtick. I bet you secretly have the heart of a poet, and are just waiting for the world to be a little kinder.|hero_quote2=Billy|quote2=I hate people.}}</ref>

* Due to always carrying his bat in his left hand, Billy has a unique reloading animation where he will eat his weapon's magazine before loading a new one that he pulls out from his jacket.

** This animation is also likely a reference to the popular myth that goats can consume and digest any material, including inedible ones.

*Billy possesses a full set of teeth at the front of his mouth. This is unlike real goats, who lack an upper set and instead have a hard dental pad.
