So facing Hillbilly is boring

It's either I can escape without being hit onceI still do gens and stuff or I get downed because of one simple thing. Constantly using his chainsaw yes I get it's his power and yes I get you basically get easy downs because of it. But three matches in a row I had to face Hillbilly. First match took twenty years to finish because me and another survivor just waited for eachother to die since two gens left that were close together. Second match I never got hit I was in chases and did gens but constant chainsaw use ended up with him constant hitting walls and rocks. Third match I just shut my brain off near the end because I was tired of hearing the constant chainsaw revving and overdrive activating. So overall Hillbilly is boring to face because there isn't any suspense I know he's going to use his chainsaw the entire match.

    I'm tired of the chainsaw sound more annoyed it's like hearing Wraith constantly ringing his bell it does get annoying or back then flashlight spamming. The sound does get annoying after a while.

    I disagree. I still love to play against Hillbilly. There is a lot of suspense in who outsmarts whom in a loop and the added risk of an insta down honestly makes it even more fun for me because the stakes are higher. One mistake and I could end up on a hook. But if I play it just right, then I can make him waste a looot of time.

    Believe us when we say it only gets worse from here.

    If they're running boots it's the most boring chase in the game. Immediately drop pallet to not insta die at 75% of loops → billy gets overdrive → die anyway because the killer is rewarded for holding m2. The only counterplay to billy is awful map geometry and abusing crouch tech (if this wasn't a thing billy chase would be exponentially shorter).

    Crouch Tech is kinda strong against him. It's a part of the counterplay. Learn it. 75% Loops? Let's end it here. It doesn't make sense.

    Hillbilly is one of the most exciting Killers you can go againts.

    Killers that are scary and yet offer window for counterplay and skill metters on both sides are the peak of desing on killers.

    I think killers where you feel their presence and need to kinda respect their power and play around it are also rewarding to play againts if you outplay them.

    Adrenaline is pumping when I get chased by Hillbilly for like 90+ seconds and still just a tiny bit managing to survive and we both play the chase. Its very exciting. Very opposite of boring.

    Brutha, hillbilly now imo is on the more fun side to play against. You should look up 2017 hillbilly and how 18/20 matches you played were against hillbilly. Hillbilly is a very skillful killer to master and mastering going against him can be even more satisfying. I can see how it would be hard to like playing against him when you haven't really seen him much until recently (he was an inexistent killer for like 3-4 years), but after having my fair share of billy matches throughout my dbd play time I think right now is his best and most fun state.
