Is Billy good right now?

Billy sits in tier B (#24 of 39): a solid but unremarkable pick. They win 48.3% of their matches and appear in 34.2% of them (140,970 matches on patch 2026-09-26). The patch hurt: 0.6 points less win rate than before (48.9%).

The best-performing build right now is a tank build: "BeepBeepBilly |💦☢1v12✘| 9/31★ ANNOTATIONS ON ALL", at 47.2% over 178 matches. If you prefer a gun style, "Zizis Billy (SEPT 29TH PATCH. PRESS QUICK BUY)" sits at 46.8%.

Billy does especially well against Mirage, Sinclair and The Doorman and struggles most against Rat King (37.9%) and Graves. Their best teammate is Rat King.

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.
