No
His power is countered by windows, and as long as you dont get greedy with pallets hes basically a M1 killer. He's basically a weaker but easier Hillbilly.

He's mid-tier even on an ideal map for him, and he can get screwed really easily on bad maps for him.

He’s a decent killer. I would say he’s above average but anyone that says that Bubba is OP is an entitled survivor and/or Sluzzy.

He’s not OP, but he is extremely easy to play

Extremely counterable killer, and although he has decent anti-loop (even being able to handle T-walls), he suffers from many other loops.

Don't care
No care, no care in the world
I don't care, I don't care anymore~

Really though I don't really care one way or the other about Bubba.
He's okay as IMO; not too strong.
That said, I honestly wouldn't care if they nerfed him either - given how easy he is to play - as long as he still felt like Bubba afterwards.

For one reason and one reason only: Bamboozle.
Sure, maybe that means Bamboozle is the problem, but I also ######### hate killers that chew through resources. We should be promoting the opposite of that.

The poll is about Bubba, the killer. Not Bamboozle, the perk.

No
Even with perks no.

Bubba with Bamboozle is a valid complaint, but for just the standalone killer, I feel people need to learn the difference between oppressive and unfun to play against.

Yes
Every single Bubba I have ever gone agaisnt has had Bamboozle, so as far as I'm concerned it's basekit.

This makes zero sense dude lol, most killers ive gone against run ruin, that doesnt make it practically basekit lmfao

Easily countered by windows (bamboozle only blocks one window at a time, there are plenty of tiles with more than one window and most tiles will chain into another tile with a window) his main strength is chewing through pallets, hes mid tier at absolute best lol

Yes
Let me spell it out, which I was genuinely unaware I had to do as I (clearly mistakenly) thought much higher of the general mental capacity of this forum in general:
Since Bubba's massive buff, I have literally never gone agains a Bubba that wasn't using Bamboozle. Not a single time. Not on any occasion. Even the basement campers have been using it. And it completely takes away the single bit of counterplay he has. So as far as my experience is concerned, Bubba has no counterplay. This single perk takes away the one defence survivors have agaisnt this killer, something it does not do with any other. Deathslinger has more counterplay than a Bubba with Bamboozle.
So I cannot, in fact, judge this killer without talking about Bamboozle, because my experience playing as and against Bubba is incomplete, because I have never gone against a Bubba that hasn't been running the one perk that takes away his counterplay. However, the fact that this one perk takes away his counterplay makes me think that it is not, in fact, simply the problem of Bamboozle, but an issue with the design of the killer itself. However, I cannot test that hypothesis, because I haven't played against a Bubba that doesn't run Bamboozle, thus tainting my experience.
This is completely abnormal, however, because I have gone against, for example, plenty of Nurses that haven't been using Infectious Fright, the closest comparison to Bubba/Bamboozle I can think of, and so have the experience to formulate an opinion about the basekit of Nurse, because I have played as and against, with and without IF. However when it comes to Bubba, and I repeat this again, I have no experience playing against Bubba without Bamboozle and so far as I am concerned those two are intrinsically linked and produce a killer with no real counterplay.

Thank you for acting like as much of a condescending dick as possible, do you wanna know how you counter bubba with bamboozle, smart ass? When bubba vaults the window you leave and go to one of the several other windows that most tiles will chain into, or you stick around one of the multiple tiles that has multiple windows, or you loop one of the several pallets near those windows or around the map, while bubba is great at chewing through pallets that doesnt mean pallets dont exist and that sure as hell doesnt mean you have to drop them immediately, you should definitely be able to get a few loops in unless he is literally right on your ass, i also really really doubt that anyone with a significant amount of time in this game has literally never played against a bubba without bamboozle.

I think in his current state he is quite balanced. His strenght is his aggressive playstyle but his weakness is that he must be able to snowball somehow, otherwise he doesn't have the means to slow down the game.
