Fathom, once a fan favorite in Deadlock, has become something of a ghost story within the community. The hero was briefly tested but then swiftly pulled from the roster, leaving players wondering what went wrong and if he might ever return. Now, the developers have chimed in with a teasing remark that’s only fueled the mystery further. They joked about turning Fathom into delicious stock, a cheeky way to say he’s out of the picture—for now.
It’s not often you see a dev embrace such dark humor around a beloved character, but it’s clear they’re aware of the affection—and frustration—players have toward Fathom. Whether he makes a comeback or remains a legendary casualty, the brief glimpse fans got of him was enough to cement his place in Deadlock’s lore. For now, though, it seems the waters have calmed, and Fathom’s fate remains swirling beneath the surface.
