Should Leather Face get nerfed?
I know a lot of you guys might disagree with this but let me state my case. Recently in every game I play against him, I literally have myself or a teammate get face camped while hooked with the chainsaw. It’s pretty frustrating he’d just get a bait then down everyone and that’s game. Whatever counters you’re gonna say it won’t work, the only thing that makes a difference is the killer himself, is he going by “the code” or not.

No. He shouldn’t. “Please state why”
As you said his face-camping should get nerfed to the ground
Leatherface himself is actually in a really solid state rn

I think you cannot nerf his face camping without nerfing him to the ground aswell.

Why would you nerf a killer who is mid-tier at best?

This is not really a Leatherface-problem, you can facecamp with every Killer and will make it really, really hard to get people off the hook. Most of the time at least one person will die, either the person hooked first or someone who traded hooks.
Leatherface is just a Killer with very good facecamping ability. But that does not mean that the Killer itself should get nerfs, rather the mechanic should get looked at.

Leatherface is in a pretty good place at the moment. Sure he is really good at face camping but that does not mean he needs to be nerfed it just means the devs have to look at how to stop face camping

He has counterplay that is effective.

First time I've seen someone actually think LF needed a nerf lol.
He's pretty balanced for average survivors. He'll get dumpstered by good survivors. If I was going to do anything to LF, it would be a buff.

I don’t care either way.
I don't want the killer so I don't care

If someone wants to face-camp you aren't going to be able to stop it. They already made a change to the point system where you won't gain points and will actually lose points for staying near a hooked survivor (unless you were actively in a chase) a while back to discourage face-camping, but again, you can't prevent it

He's a mid tier at best, and he has plenty of counterplay.

He just isnt that good. Once a survivor has the right perks he would be bottom half of killers but he does mess up new players a lot more

He is weak if you bait out his chainsaw.

Nope, this isn't a Leatherface problem, just a general problem in the game itself, Face-camping is a strategy, as much survivors hate it.
Sadists on this world are going to exist, no changing that.

I think he's in a good place right now, because he actually takes a tad bit of skill now instead of how boring he was when he came out. You can still deal with any killer face camping to be honest, just bring BT or DS if you're struggling that much with it because it's not just a problem with Leatherface.

Facecamping is a problem by itself, it won't be solved by nerfing Leatherface. And the solution is in the survivors' hands: if they stopped feeding facecampers with free kills and just gen rushed, facecamping would be less inviting. Unfortunately after almost 5 years it's still not clear to most people.

Sure they maybe could do something to actually fix his face camp potential. But he shouldn't be nerfed in any other way. Bubba is an underperforming killer atm.

face camping isnt bannable and devs said its fine
bubba is not op at all because you can literally vault a window and he has to wait for charges

Leatherface is fine.
If he facecamps a survivor just do gens. At best he'll get two kills this way. You shouldn't be feeding facecampers regardless.

Yeah, when I'm mic'd up with 3 other people, we hardy ever have a death against a face-camping LF. First Survivor downs tells the others to finish a few gens and then perform a coordinated rescue.

Leatherface is simple. Once survivors get to advanced tactics, his power is pretty useless. If anything, I think that destroying pallets should deplete all of his charges and disable his chainsaw for 5 or so seconds, although perhaps have an add-on to remove this.
