'''Wrecker''' is an unreleased [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]'', previously available in the [[Hero Labs]] gamemode. Stunning enemies with his Wrecking Ball, Wrecker will Consume them to satisfy his hunger, then spit out their remains in a Bio Blast. His foes will suffer devastating damage once he charges his Overload.

Employed by [[Fairfax Industries|Eldritch Tactical Solutions]], Wrecker is a monstrous creature who made a reputation as ''"The Butcher of Ixia"'' for his dirty work in extraplanar wars.

Wrecker was added to Hero Labs on [[Update:October 24, 2024|October 24, 2024]], and removed from the game when the mode was discontinued on [[Update:August 18, 2025|August 18, 2025]].
