Lets Talk about Leather Face
So why are there two killers with the same ability to begin with why was Leather Face brought into the game? Not complaining or anything just curious .
Do you think the instant down is fair or should be reworked into giving the hit survivor server bleeding and prevent them from being healed for 30 secounds. I mean I like this more honestly they're more then likely to lead you to other survivors this way.
Are we more likely to see more killers with the same ability this coming up season ?
Leather Face does have some great perks probably the only reason to even play him is for Franklin Demise

Billy and leatherface ability are not the same #########
And no, leatherface is pretty weak already, no need to nerf him any further and make him freddy 2.0

Not really Salty and to further proce my point as you said Im a survivor main.
I bought Leather Face played him and killed everyone with no effort and it didn't help that Gens were close to each other

HillBilly is not superior, Leatherface is. HillBilly can only chainsaw one survivor while Leatherface can chainsaw multiple survivors at once.
They both have their ups and downs. I personally think instadowns are fine. I mean, we survivors have insta-heal so it’s fair.
However, I don’t think there are going to be any more killers with chainsaws.0 -

Despite both having a chainsaw, they play very differently. Hillbilly is far superior, due his ability to apply map pressure, but Leatherface is more powerful in camping. If he's in the open, like the cornfield in coldwind, Leatherface can nullify juking with his chainsaw while Billy's can be dodged way easier. As for the insta-down, I don't think it needs to be tweaked. The only time Leatherface's ability is dangerous is if you let him get too close or if you didn't run anywhere with trees or debris and Billy's chainsaw can be dodged relatively easily unless he's right behind you. Besides, killers are already on a time crunch, so Billy and Leatherface kind of need the insta-down.

I want to see a killer with two chainsaws, one in each hand. Maybe a third on a chain around his waist that he can whirl around like a hoola hoop.The Juggler, he has 3 chainsaws being juggled, his power is trowing it at the survivors!

Sure, I can play with any killer it's not hard at all. Will I be good? no, but I can play.
That's not a hard point to make.

I respect HillBilly way more than Leather Face because Billy has that huge Lunge attack with a speed boost
Leather Face is a bit slower and encourage camping but not all of them camp but they stay very close to the hooked survivor so they can down Multiple people and his chainsaw can negate BT if I'm not mistaken0 -

I have never needed to juke a Leather Face because more then likely only one person will see him in the match...
Not complaining though but Billy encorages players to chase and put pressure on survivors due to his lexability .
He can be hard to Juke sometime
But we do not need two chainsaws in the game especially one that can hit multiple people at once and hit the same person more than once by holding only one button0 -
I didn’t get “butthurt”, I found it childish. No one here was even talking about it but somehow, you decide to go out of your way and be immature to bring it up because I thought wrong on a topic that far had anything to do with the deleted thread I posted a long time ago.

Leather Face does have some great perks probably the only reason to even play him is for Franklin Demise
The original concept for Hillbilly was inspired by Leather Face and was created way before the game was an established title. Once the game garnered attention and popularity they were able to work out deals for licensed Killers. One of these killers was Leather Face.
That is the reason the ability is somewhat similar although both adhere to different playstyles. They hadn't planned on the possibility of adding licensed Killers in the beginning (or at least aside from hopeful dreams) and did their best to stay true to the character themselves and create a distinguished power.

Out of every game I have played I have never seen a good Leather Face I rather remove him from the game honestly his perks are great I like them
His playstyle though doesn't teach or motivate a player to search out other survivors and he more then likely knows everyone knows how to counter BBQ and chilli
If his Chainsaw didn't instant down players I think it would benefit him more to have to hunt down others
Even in his moves he didn't sit in one place he hunted and chased them all down0 -

Mainly his playstyle isn't unique at all its a universal and its unsurprising like all of the other killers. You'll find that all of them have unique playstyle to each different playerUnit said:

Like for instant if you play five different hags. Each player will play them differently
Versus you playing 5 different leather faces more than likely all of them will be played the same exact way with 5 different players.. As if they all were the same person0 -
That's not true! Some LFs camp in the basement, some camp at the top of the steps, some camp hooks not even in the basement. Hell, I once saw an LF slug someone and then camp them in dykng state. So many different playstyles!1

Both abilities do different things btw. One can hit multiple while the other can only hit one. Both have very different playstyles. Also getting rid of an insta down for a non heal is a nerf not a buff. The fact that you can't knock a survivor down and put them on a hook is a straight nerf.

I rather them not be abke to heal and have heavy bleeding to track them to other players and get multiple players than just getting one. Just in a more skillful way than holding down 1 button

Do you realize with your "buff" you'll only see LF camp a lot more? "Hmm, well I can't chase down survivors and instadown them anymore, but I have a chainsaw that hits multiple people, well, guess I gotta face camp the hook with my chainsaw rev'd" and why wouldn't he, since he is basically a neutered animal might as well, why go chase healthy survivors when you know you can't insta-down them and can't do anything to them unless you're right behind them. So you just discouraged chases with LF, good jobfeffrey said:

Leatherface is a bad killer and I don't understand why community doesn't want to acknowledge this.
Any killer that does not require skill or intelligence is kinda bad. You can make plays with nurse, billy, huntress, hag and clown. You can show your skill with these killers. Apart from the general knowledge of the game like knowing map layouts, which pallets are safe which pallets are not safe etc, there is not much difference between a good wraith or a bad wraith because his power is easy to use. You can easily understand the difference between a good nurse and a bad nurse I believe.
What devs need to do is to make their killers more complicated so that good players will have the chance to show themselves. You can see that with survivors because survivors have this opportunity. This is why generally killers are able to destroy survivors at low ranks and then have a hard time at high ranks. Survivors are able to get better and become more skilled while some killers like leatherface has no way to improve themselves.
All in all, some killers need buffs that will not make them easy and deadly but will make them difficult and when used properly deadly just like nurse.

Leather is pretty mediocre among killers. He has no mobilty or way to sneak up to survivors which makes it very easy to hide from him and have him waste a crap load of time just trying to find survivors. His chainsaw isn't even worth using a lot of times due to how easy and punishing it is to run into objects. If there is any problem with Leather it's that his add-ons need some proper love and attention. (Muffler add-ons are useless, no ultra-rares, chili doesn't even work)
