'''Lash''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. He is a brutal bruiser of a Hero, eagerly initiating fights and chasing down fleeing opponents. He leaps into combat with his Grappling hook, Flogging his foes with a life-stealing whip and stomping the ground with a Ground Strike that damages multiple targets. If the enemy team groups up, Lash can pick them all up at once and Death Slam them into the ground.

A champion of an underground fighting arena, Lash has built a reputation as a tough and unsavoury character.

== Trivia ==
* Jacob Lash is an asshole.
* Instead of a traditional dockworker, Lash may be an airship worker, as airships are the primary means of air transport in the ''Deadlock'' universe.<ref>2024-08-31 - [[Yoshi]]; [[:File:Yoshi Lore Hint from Discord.jpg|Deadlock Discord]] - ''"a random lore thing is that airplanes aren't a thing in this world, they use airships instead powered by wind spirits (zephyrs)"''</ref> This is supported by his air mobility in gameplay. The anchor tattoo in Lash's previous model was surrounded by wind shapes.<ref>[[:File:Discord @Willkels- Connection Between Lash Tattoo and Zephyr.jpg|@willkels's Discord message]] about the connection between Lash's shoulder tattoo and Zephyrs.</ref>
* Lash’s parry animation was changed after streamer JoeyCheerio shared feedback during a livestream that was being watched by Valve Senior Animator [[Jamaal Bradley]]. He suggested the move should feel more like a heavy, belly-first chest smash, similar to King K. Rool in Super Smash Bros Ultimate. The updated animation was introduced in a later patch, with Bradley stating "we appreciate our players".<ref name="CheerioParry">{{YouTubeCite|v-2-x78d5pA|I'm the reason Valve changed Lash's Parry}}</ref>
* Lash's name was localized in the Brazilian Portuguese localization as '''"Chico T.",''' a pun on the word "chicote" ("whip").
* The description for ''Deadlock'' in [https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/593110/view/641297020996289523 Steam Replay 2024] is ''"Jacob Lash is an asshole."''
* It appears that at some point in development, Lash really did fight with uppercuts, as an ability named '''[[wikipedia:Street_Fighter|Shoryuken]]''' was datamined.
* "Thinking About Lash in the Hideout" is displayed as one's status in the in-game Friends List when playing as Lash in the [[Hideout]].
* In ''[[Neon Prime]]'', Lash owned a [[Neon Prime lore#Lash's Dojo|dojo]]. He taunted {{HeroIcon|Kali}}, a former [[Bear Pit]] competitor, for coming out of retirement only to go back to a 2 decade hiatus after losing to Bebop.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|Lash|file=Lash kill kali 01.mp3|transcription=Not gonna dunk on you, Kali. You were a hell of a fighter before you retired. Lived in obscurity, came out of retirement in a desperate bid for relevancy, only to get injured by Bebop. Ouch! And put on a shelf for the better part of two decades. Uhf.}}</ref> Lash also used to date the character Ballista, and wanted to get them back after a break-up.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Lash|file=Lash killed by ballista 01.mp3|transcription=It's fine. You know, lots of guys get the shit kicked out of them by their exes, right?}}</ref><ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Lash|file=Lash killed by ballista 04.mp3|transcription=Get it together, Lash! You're not gonna win them back by losing!}}</ref>
* Lash's killstreak voiceline: "Winning's my business and business is good." is a reference to Megadeth song: "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-4WeOqSXSc Killing Is My Business... And Business Is Good!]".
