Any Billy Buffs?
I mean, no one plays this killer anymore and he is not rewarding as his difficulty. He needs adjustments but devs still doesnt changed him since the 4.1.0 patch. Just remove him from the game at this point lmao

Yeah you have to be careful with buffing hillbilly. He has an instadown, second best mobility and can curve tiles to get downs. Giving him too much extra might make him OP

I would like to see Overheat be reworked into working like Bubbas.
It builds up while you are charging the power, but once you cancel it or fully charge it, it immediately goes away again.
That way you can't facecamp with a 99%ed chainsaw, but you also don't get punished for using your power effectively anymore.

Faster chainsaw sprint speed, better addons, less punishing cooldowns, better animations, killer fov and chainsaw sounds etc.

Any decent looper won't get curved under any situation, unless they are distracted, listening to music and also in another tab.

Remove overheat please, so that you can use his power freely

You dont even get punished nowadays for using your power effectively
Its just really hard to do so

Sure you do.
Any time you use your power, Overheat actively punishes you by filling up the "you dont get to use your power anymore" bar. And as a Billy you want to be in your power a lot, as it provides good map traversal and decent chase abilities, meaning playing him well just fills up this "screw you" bar.
And that should not be a thing. We already have to put up with that stupid roar that warns Survivors when you enter a Chainsawsprint and having a limited time to aim our Chainsawsprint before launching it, we really don't need to get additionally punished every time we do use the chainsaw.

I mean should you really be rewarded/not punished for not using your power correctly? Any other kill with high mobility gets punished for it. Best example is probably Oni, as you waste your power faster while moving and just waste it in general if youre in an area with no survivors.
Billy has no reason to be an exception to this rule considering his power gives him an instant down right from the beginning of the match, and even then if you use your power correctly you will barely overheat. Im talking from experience.
Use your chainsaw to go to places you know people are, use your chainsaw to zone or when you know youre going to get the hit. I can probably count on both hands since the rework how many times Ive been punished while using my chainsaw perfectly. 99.99% of the time that I overheat its because I keep trying to go for curves or attempt to take flight for a fancy clip no one will end up watching
Billy is a hard and unforgiving killer to learn, as he's all about perfection.

"No one plays him anymore".
Not really. He's one of the most common killers I see, actually. He's still a strong killer, after all.
1 -
He is least played free killer and most of people says he is so rare.
2 -
I still have a great time playing Billy, she he's not what he used to be but removing him from the game is a silly request, he still does just fine in the right hands.

Any one going for straight curve downs simply isn't viable with the amount of pallets a lot of maps have. Not to mention T/L's are basically a death sentence for curve billys.

I agree with pretty much everything here, except Spark Plug being the best common add on in the game
Remember, Torn Bookmark was a thing. Basically just gave Nurse an extra blink

I miss Billy. I see him on verrrry rare occasion, and when I do it’s usually a player who’s feeling salty and just want ps to vent with some camping or slugging.

He is one of the hardest killers but rewards you less than Bubba for example. I didnt even mention that Bubba is way easier than Billy. That shouldnt exist. Harder killers should reward you more than easier killers.

A full reversion of his "rework", of course.
It was never needed.
