balanced* Bubba rework (Now with added artistic representation!)
What if we turn the cannibal into essentially a ping pong ball. have him bounce off walls gaining speed and momentum instead of halting in his tracks (so long as you don't crash head first into a wall.) He's a low tier killer at the moment, but to bring him up to mid/high tier to function better along side other killers we need to make either his ability in the chase or ability to track survivors better.
i personally think that altering it so that he can effectively attempt to bounce around the area, using the map as leverage to gain momentum would be a fun mechanic, forcing players to learn and adapt to an out of control swinging ball of death. if he goes head first into a wall he stops, but if he bounces along side, he'll go flying in another direction gaining speed, giving him the exact opposite of billys straight line mobility by giving him heavy corner control and speed. someone comes up to a jungle gym? you bounce around in there until you hit them. Altering his chilli addons to instead give him extra acceleration and time upon hitting an object, and his rake and chassis add'ons to instead allow him to start controlling his movement earlier after a bounce would be a good start. This would also give bubba a higher skill ceiling requiring one to bounce off walls at correct angles, and be a bit more then "holding down m2 in a chase and following/standing still in the basement". a change like this would also allow him to play more agressively in his chase after survivors, being that he would have (potentially) a higher speed then billy across short uncontrolled distances
Thank you for coming to my ted talk on ping pong bubba
Edit : added totally professional artistic representation of the new leatherface mechanic!
(p.s. photoshop license ran out a while back and i have to make do with a mouse and ms paint sooo you get quality content like this)

I like this idea a lot, it reminds me of the last scene of his movie too.

It sounds good but this is something I have to see in game
@tt_ivi_99 Honestly, I think that bubba needs a rework more than Freddy.

That sounds like fun!
And sounds like it'd fit right into who he is.

yeah man, thats exactly what i have been feeling. i want something original, yet on the same tier of fairness and viability that hillbilly has. i think bubba can fill that role and even be even somewhat more true to the movies by making him just a swirling bumbling death machine that bumps off walls rather then into them.
