Billy was overkilled.
Billy at base-kit used to be an example of perfect balance but the sh*t devs did to him was straight up overkill.
Everyone right now is saying the same thing, the overheat mechanic is unnecessary. Just let go of your ego admit adding it was just a terrible mistake and remove it for the love of god, having to worry about a stupid cooldown and aiming your chainsaw right both at once just makes billy from fun to stressful.
Addons, replace this horrid "perk themed" failure with something thats actually useful, 25% enduring while using a chainsaw and getting stunned.
This piece of garbage turn it into a slightly increases charge time addon with no drawbacks.
And to the bunch of hardcore surv main dimwits that spammed "billy had no limit" while well knowing that he was balanced just to see another killer weakened, try playing current billy in red ranks for a good 10 matches in a row and tell me how you feel.

its a shame that this rework, unlike Nurse which added a new wall for new players and didn't hurt the good ones, only really hurt the good billys. The ones who put the time in to learn the curve and his actual hard as hell anti loop.
I don't see more than 1 curve billy every other month if that now, they were genuinly scary to play against. Now if I see billy its a noed hook camping purple rank.

EXACTLY THIS
Now curve billy is legit just overheat in 2 chainsaws because of the charge time increase that isn't accounted for by this awful overheat system....

loud minority strikes again. New Billy is bad you just can't accept you can't do most of his mind games anymore.
The one thing they needed to fix was his instant saw combo. Instead we got cool down on his power, useless addons, a silly scream when he chainsaws, no more charge on pallet stuns, bad animations and bad camera point of view.

it's okay to say that old billy was busted and that new billy is bad. it can be both. please stop trying to make the narrative that old billy was fine.
i agree that he could use some changes in his current state. i do miss playing against billys.

That's what everyone (but survivor-mains) is saying since that dreaded update. Same thing for Nurse, and it will be the same for Freddy.

The overheat mechanic was added so Billy can't camp the hook with his chainsaw held at 99.

Pretty sure that wasn't the main reason as to why they added an overheat mechanic

Unnecessary overheat mechanic. New Billy is not fine.

He paid an ultimate price to keep his mobility. Gave his lethality to Leatherface

they nerfed more then what you are saying.
they put a hard 90 degree cap on his charge turn. I use to be able to 360 on the top of the hills pre nerf.
They put a stupid roar to hand hold survivors and make it so they can look forward and still juke him
his fov got reduced and the camera shoved forward to create a huge blind spot so rank 20s can 360 him Old billy could see the full head of the sledge and the handle while walking. Nerfed billy can only see the top of the sledge and it blocks his fov in that corner.
he moves weird and the camera sways . You need to fight the camera after every chainsaw or you end up looking at the sky.
They even nerfed his nerfed addons because survivors complained and made apex muffler ultra rare from i think.. green? because survivors demanded it.

I can definitely understand what your saying with the overheat and other things but whats wrong with the scream? I think it matches him well and fits with his character.

Scream is another indicator for survivors you are using your power. It is in my opinion not fitting of his character. I can't take him seriously when I hear that goofy scream.
