Hillbilly I would say. You can learn him quickly, only took me a few games to git gud with him.
Nurse is still a challenge, when I used to play on PC it was a lot easier but she still requires a lot more skill no matter the platform.1 -
I always thought otherwise maybe because i havent played Billy much. I wouldnt say Nurse is that much of a challenge she learns fast too0

Billy. However Billy isn't someone you can pick up and instantly be good with. He takes a lot of skill to be able to consistently hit chainsaws.Post edited by KingB on0

Nurse or Hillbilly?Billy, he requires no perks or specific builds just understanding where survivors run to tiles and where you can get an instadown.
Nurse for learning really needs shadowborn(to keep eyes on a survivor from blink stun) and a lot of muscle memory and prediction.
Another option you could learn is Spirit, she's add-on and mindgame reliant but definitely top tier.

Nurse if you are drinking.
Hillbilly if not drinking.

I think Billy. I picked Nurse up with my first 2 games and I always 4 man when I play her unless it's Yamoka estate (I can see through corn pretty well actually :P). I've been maining Billy for a while now and it's really difficult. Survivors can stomp you if they can loop and you need to think carefully. He can lose his pressure just as quickly as you get it. So definitely Billy from my experience.

Spirit is definitely harder than both.

Nurse or Hillbilly?Hillbilly by a mile IMO.
The Nurse takes a long time to master, but it's definitely more rewarding.
As for Billy, you just need to know how to apply map pressure well and you're already almost there.0 -
To learn? Probably hillbilly. To master, nurse.
Hillbilly is pretty straight forward. You use your chainsaw and go vroom really fast. You can use it to get across the map or to get an instant down. Even if you're not good at chainsawing, you can use it point blank as a glorified regular attack that does double damage.
Nurse has a huge bump at the beginning of her learning curve. You need to get a feel for how long to charge your blinks, how to predict survivor movement, etc. But once you got the hang of that she's real easy to play. Unlike all other killers, you need next to no game knowledge to do well with her. You do not need to know which way to run tiles, you don't need to play around pallets or windows, you just blink and hit (or miss, depending on how good you are with her). You'll naturally get better aiming your blinks as you play, while the other killers will require you to actually use your noodle and figure out the little details of the game if you want to master them.

Billy is by far easier to learn. Nurse takes a while just to get the mechanics down then some more time to see how to use them properly.

What i asked for is it possible to chainsaw someone as soon as you got close for good Billy main? I think since he have insta down ability it takes more skill to accomplish that0

Actually, I think Hillbilly is a lot harder to master than Nurse. When I say "to master" I'm talking about being on a skill level that allows you to wipe coordinated high rank players.
Nurse is "hard to learn" but once you get used to the blink, you're ready. You are your own worst enemy at that point. You don't have to worry about most Exhaustion perks, you don't have to worry about DS, you don't have to worry about pallets and windows. It requires quick decision making and the ability to read Survivors movement but someone with a high blink accuracy will win most of the time - regardless of the survivors playstyle. Your only concern is to land those blinks. It doesn't really matter who you chase and where you chase them: You find somone, hook them and repeat until everyone is dead. Nothing can stop you from doing that.
Hillbilly is "easy to learn" (easy to land the chainsaw) but it requires a lot more to reach a skill level that allows you to wipe high skilled players. You need good map awareness, quick decision making but most importantly, you always need to play time-efficient. Is it worth chasing a survivor or should I go defend a certain area? Is it worth picking up that obsession or should I slug? Is it worth breaking that pallet or can I mindgame someone there or even land a 90° chainsaw? Even if you have 100% chainsaw accuracy, you can very easily lose the match because you made the wrong decisions. You have to outplay the Survivors.
That's also why Nurse is considered top tier. Once you reach a certain skill level it IS actually easy to win - especially if you use certain add-ons. Billy (and all other Killers) require a lot more experience to perform on a similar level because a lot more things need to be considered.

I would guess Hillbilly is easier to learn for almost anyone, but some people seem to be natural with Nurse too. For average player Hillbilly is definitely easier to learn, because it is very difficult to hit good survivors with Nurse.
