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


'''Lash''' 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 to damage multiple targets. If the enemy team groups up, Lash can pick them all up at once and Death Slam them into the ground.
A stevedore with ego the size of an airship, the Lash is more famous for his reputation as the champion of the underground fight club [[Bear Pit]].


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

<!--
Lash is speculated to have a sailor background given the various ornaments and ship’s anchor that he wears. However, it is most likely not a traditional nautical sailor, but an aeronaut, a sailor of the skies. Statements from ''Deadlock'' developer ''Yoshi'' indicate that no airplanes exist in the Deadlock world.<ref>[[:File:Yoshi Lore Hint from Discord.jpg|@yoshideadlock's Discord message]] about how airplanes aren't a real thing in the Deadlock world and people use wind spirit-powered airships instead.</ref> Instead, airships use zephyrs, or wind spirits, for air travel. On Lash’s left arm, he adorns a ship’s anchor tattoo surrounded by a cloud-like emblem, or possibly a zephyr.<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> Additionally, Lash’s aptitude of air mobility and the ship’s horn sound on his ultimate ability “Death Slam” further imply an aeronaut background. Voice lines from [[Mo & Krill]] call Lash a “stevedore”, a person that helps unloads cargo from ships, which suggest that Lash could be a dockworker or a ship rigger that helps in the smuggling business. 


Past the shipping background, Lash is a champion of the [[Bear Pit]], an underground arena of blood sport where spectators can gamble on matches. [[Bebop]] is another known pit fighter who is often referred to as Lash’s titular rival. Lash makes a few remarks to [[Wraith]], leader of New York’s gambling syndicate, mocking her for betting on Bebop.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|Lash|file=Lash match start lash wraith convo02 01.mp3|transcription=So, you're the lady who bets on Bebop?}}</ref><ref>{{VoiceLineCite|Lash|file=Lash kill wraith 02.mp3|transcription=Backed the wrong horse, Wraith... Like always.}}</ref> Lash also taunts [[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> 
== Backstory ==
 
{{Fates_Tale|lash}}
Despite a rambunctious persona, Lash states he donates 3% of his income to his own charity ''Lash-Back'' for children who suck.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|Lash|file=Lash select 13 charity.mp3|transcription=You know it's important to give back. That's why I'm taking three percent of my earnings a day and donating them to Lash Back. It's my charity dedicated to children who kinda suck.}}</ref>

== Trivia ==
== Trivia ==
* Lash often references [[Bebop]] in his dialogue, hinting at a rivalry between the two.
* Jacob Lash is an asshole.
* Lash used to fight with uppercuts, but he stopped when Bebop started doing the move.
** This was the tagline for ''Deadlock'' in [https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/593110/view/641297020996289523 Steam Replay 2024].
* Lash is voiced by [[wikipedia:Andrew Bowen|Andrew Bowen]], who also voices Johnny Cage in the ''Mortal Kombat'' franchise.
* 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").
* Lash's voice line that he "used to do an uppercut" seems to be a reference to a datamined unused ability of his, named "Shoryuken" in reference to ''[[wikipedia:Street_Fighter|Street Fighter]]''.
* "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]].
* Lash's killstreak voice line ''"Winning's my business and business is good"'' is a possible reference to the Megadeth song [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-4WeOqSXSc ''Killing Is My Business... And Business Is Good!''].
* Lash's Ground Strike upgrade voice line ''"They're about to learn that their arms are too short to box with god"'' is a possible reference to [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRWG0mg3tHE a quote] by pro wrestler [[wikipedia:CM_Punk|CM Punk]] to The Rock in ''WWE''. The phrase was popularized by the 1976 Broadway musical ''[[wikipedia:Your_Arms_Too_Short_to_Box_with_God|Your Arms Too Short to Box with God]].''
