New Billy Tech "Jester Tech"

So I have been playing many matches as new Billy. During these matches I have discovered something to do with Billy's curve and freefalls. When he falls during his sprint and doesn't hit an invisible wall, he'll stop in the air and speed off on the ground. Now if you add a curve just as he falls, he'll actually turn and keep turning until he hits the ground immediately sprinting in the direction you're facing. With high enough sensitivity you can 180 off a drop.

Where is this tech useful? Ramps. New maps are now getting these new ramps in random spots. Anything with a lage enough drop

I have not seen anyone talk about this since new Billy dropped and I am dubbing this tech the "Jester Tech" I will drop instances on this thread as I master it moving forward.

    Bruh, it's just like killer works, chill. Probably that's why nobody talking about it and called it "tech".

    Well played, though this is not exactly new. This has been possible for almost 2 years (I think). They changed Billy's movement while airborn when they removed Skybilly (R.I.P my beloved).

    The problem with this tech is, that there are only very few spots where it will actually work since it requires a drop without an invisible wall. So this would not work on many hills and main buildings.

    I have gotten some value out of this on hills without invisible walls and inside the Chapel but there aren't a lot of places where it will actually come in clutch. Your example is probably one of the best uses for this.

    I have had a blast figuring out all the ways I can use Overdrive with the new 1.0 seconds turn time and let's just say I have had more than a few people, that did not want to run me around shack anymore. 😈

    Edit: I forgot, you can also this tech inside the Eyrie of Crows main building and on top of the Mother's Dwelling main building (not sure, if it still works though because I haven't done that in a while).

    I understand where some of you are coming from but being able to do it full 180° is new especially on console and it being completely repeatable.

    Here is the 180° Jester Tech as an example

    Places like rpd upper balcony to lower East wing

    2nd floor of lerys to underneath

    Top of yamaoka shrine to its basement

    Lots of places on dead dog saloon itself.

    Farm house has multiple angles where you can start from the roof and 180 back inside

    The new theater map has a few drops and ramps so I'm interested to see that one
