Why can't the Twins or Crow-Lady use their Power near a hooked Survivor but Bubba can?

    Twins? Probably to prevent the twins from surrounding the hooked survivor and guaranteeing a sacrifice.

    Crow-Lady? Maybe to stop her from surrounding the hooked player with crows? Not really sure why they did that...

    Typically killers who directly attack survivors are not discouraged from using their abilities near hooks. Bubba falls into the same category as Nemesis, Wesker, Nurse, Spirit, Pyramid, etc.


    *Edit- They went too far with Twins tbh. They can't even swap in shack while someone is in basement, but trapper is allowed to set traps down. Maybe it just boils down to them not knowing what to do with Bubba.

    The Entity doesn't want to get facecamped so it's afraid to tell him not to use the chainsaw near a hook

    I literally can not listen crying Survivors Mains about Bubba's potential in unhook scenario...

    So you want to be able to follow bubba and get free unhooks right after he gets a earned hook

    Well, no? Survivors just want to have a chance to unhook in general.

    To your complain: When the Killer is good an insta-unhook leads to a trade (1 Hit the rescuer when he tries to unhook, 1 Hit after he unhooked) which is still in the Killers favor to get a insta free Hook. Disabling his chainsaw beside the hook just changes that Bubba players can't sit beside the Hook anymore to get a guaranteed Kill after just 1 chase (which you also easily can Bloodlust 3 with 2 normal M1-Hits, no Skill required).
