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 was released on August 20, 2025 as the first winner of the Six Heroes update contest.

Background

See Billy/Lore for more story content.

Billy is a white hot ball of rage, furious at the very notion of...something. Maybe it’s the cops. Maybe it’s magic regulations. Maybe it’s the service at the gyro place downtown. (Not the good one. The other one.)

Don't ask him how he got the goat head.

Lore

Character interactions

  • Billy flirts with Vyper and says he doesn't care if she calls him Lash.

  • Billy is referred to by other heroes as an "anarchist", "furball" and "goat head".
  • Billy was one of the heroes in a private build who was accidentally leaked on stream in May 2025. Being early in development, he was using Shiv's model as a placeholder.[1]
  • Billy's portrait was leaked by an anonymous Discord user in July 2025.
