Billy Counters

Who counters Billy in Deadlock? Heroes Billy is strong against and heroes it struggles against, ranked by win rate over recent matches.

Squishier lane opponents like Sinclair, Mina, and Venator give Billy exactly what he wants: targets who need space and range to work. He collapses that distance and forces them off their comfortable positioning before they can settle into a rhythm. Trouble shows up against Seven, Graves, and Victor, who punish him when he commits. They have the pressure and the burst to answer his aggression and turn his push into a bad trade, leaving him overextended. Draft tip: pick Billy into a fragile backline that wants to play at range, and avoid him when the enemy fields Seven or Graves.
