bubba buff idea
TL;DR;CR basically invert bubba to break pallets and keep chainsawing but when he hits someone he stops also he can chainsaw forever
so my idea is that bubba can make him a good killer without completely changing his power. let me state how his power works and why it's bad. so the way his power works right now is he can rev up his chainsaw and then start doing a A.O.E. (area of effect) attack that can hit multiple survivors sounds and break any pallet instantly at the cost of stopping his frenzy. sounds good on paper but it doesn't work as well as it sounds unless you camp then it works as intended. the reason this doesn't work is because of many things here's a list. pallet and window spawns are close enough together to make using his chainsaw impossible, his speed and distance he gets with his chainsaw is very slow and small, (to the point you need to be right on the survivor in order to hit them with it) and finally the way you start his chainsaw frenzy is very tricky and sometimes causes you to cancel the attack on accident.
my idea is to flip that concept on it's head and take some things from hillbilly in order to make him better. (since after all they kinda are meant to be the same) well the first thing that should be implemented to his power is the ability to constantly chainsaw just like billy but unlike billy he is still slow. (unless you use add-ons) so the way this works is bubba just keeps swinging his chainsaw until he hits a wall or a survivor then he go into a tantrum (even if you hit a survivor you still go into a tantrum this is to give him a cool down of sorts) after doing so his ability goes on cool down for 30 seconds. but he can speed up the cool down by pulling the pull sting (this is his secondary ability) this will slow down bubba drastically and turn the 30 second cool down into just a 15 seconds. the best part of this buff will allow bubba to break pallets and keep chainsawing but for every pallet he breaks it adds a 5 seconds to his cool down to a max of 30 seconds.(so once you get the 1 min cool down if you rev up the chainsaw it would turn into the 30 seconds cool down since the second ability just cuts the cool down in half)
