Why Hillbilly is so op?
He has a stupid mobility. Instadown and still not being in the saw mode, a lame man can run a lot. His normal speed should be reduced. It's ridiculous, the hitbox of the saw goes beyond walls and against facecamping there is nothing to do. Hillbilly is in the highest ranks all the time. It seems that he only exists as a killer.

Any loopable killer isn't op as long as your team repairs gens.

He's not.

Hillbilly is no where near OP, in fact he's one of the most balanced killers in the game. He has almost everything a killer needs. How ever to nerf Hillbilly is ridiculous, if there's any killer that isn't "balanced" its Nurse but the devs are not getting away with nerfing Nurse. If you thought Hillbilly was OP? Nurse gets rid of every tool to get away for survivors. Hillbilly all he can do is insta down you. Which he can only do if you're out in the open, so most of the time when a Hillbilly chainsaws you its because you're in an unsafe area with no safe points.

The fun part is: You can still loop a billy.Might_Oakk said:Any loopable killer isn't op as long as your team repairs gens.
Billy is probably the most balanced killer. He has everything what a killer needs to combat current genrush meta without beeing unstoppable. Just git gud and try killer yourself at high ranks for multiple weeks.

His chainsaw sound should be directional. The fact that it's not is pure laziness.7

Because killer mains would cry endless rivers of salt if he was nerfed. These are the people who will consider the game balanced when they get a 4k every game.18

billy is complete fine and every killer should be balanced around him

I don't like playing against billy either. It's always straight back to the hook and tunnel tunnel tunnel.

I'll go ahead and say what we're all thinking.

@Paladin_Goo No, we’re all thinking about why the hell the guy above you decided to necro a post from February.

@EntityDispleased Search bar most likely.
Sadly this isn't Reddit though so if they look for a post they like and comment this happens.
"Hillbilly op" in search reply to the first. That's my guess.

He can deny loops if he is very very skilled and they also rely on the Survivor to make a mistake. Chainsaw curving can be one of the most high risk high reward strategies as Billy, or Chainsaw feathering (I think it's called like this), you bait a Survivor into a pallet drop, start reviving your Chainsaw and charge it to 3 - 5 %, when he keeps looping just put away the Chainsaw and block him when he tries to get to the pallet again so you can get an insta down. Most of the time it works and if you know which Survivor drops pallets immidiately and which not, that can also be a good strategy.

The Billy only seams op in comparison with the other weak killers.
Billy isn't op. He is balanced.
Let's real talk, what should a killer accomplish in your opinion?
How many kills/hooks/downs should he get during a game / per generator done?
There are 12 hooks in the lifetime of a match and 5 gens, what ratio would you think is reasonable?
We are not talking about potatoes on both sides, just assume serious and competent players on the same level.

hes not op. just a case of git gud

Hillbilly is the most balanced killer in the game and doesn't need to be changed balance-wise in the slightest.
The only issue with hillbilly is the hitbox on his chainsaw, which is incredibly wide (which is their answer to fixing false saws, when it isn't). It being wide causes some pretty BS hits.
Minus the hitbox on his chainsaw, he is completely fine.

This isn't true. I play billy now and then and get maybe a 2k

If he was so balanced, why don't they give other killers tools in their kit that will help them all be high tier. It clearly isn't that hard to design a character according to y'all.
Furthermore, good billies will hit you with that saw as soon as they break that pallet you had to use after running that loop for so long. They have insane map pressure, an instadown, and run at normal killer speed. Idk why he runs at normal killer speed. His power is so good, he doesn't need it. Spirit has less map pressure (without add-ons) and she moves at 110, can't see survs, and has the one tool in her kit. Nurse has the one tool as well and its insanely good. But omg, guess what both of them don't have as a part of their kits? Instadowns!!!!!
He should run at 110 movement speed. That's it. That's the only change he needs. Or at least put it on the ptb, give the stupid survivor mains something to be happy about for once.

No. :)

Hillibilly is good killer he can baiting and can control map with chainsaw. You as survivor can loop him in places where him can't use chainsaw soo what's a problem?
0 -
Killers mains cry? So why i play as killer always i hear "that perk is too op" "that killer is too op" etc but when i play survivor i hear this ######### in 1/10 matches?
1 -
You can easly counter a chainsaw they can't control it as it wants they must learn how to control chainsaw but hillibilly can't control his power like a spirit or nurse ...
0 -
I don't think he needs a nerf. His weakness is still a windows, pallets and loops though.
0 -
OP? But you can loopy loop him lol. He's just a M1 killer with map control..
0 -
He's not. He's strong, but not op. I will agree the chainsaw hitbox can be a bit wonky at times.
1 -
That's a good question: why DOESN'T BHVR give the other mid-low tier Killers better tools to put them closer to Billy?
Welp, your own post and the OP are proof of why: if a Killer is viable, Survivors whine, and there are always more Survivors than Killers. That is why GF and Plague's power are controlled by the Survivor in terms of reducing effectiveness. It's why GF still won't be amazing even after all his buffs.
They cater to Survivors more because they think that's the way to balance the game, forgetting that Killers play the game to.

dude are you crazy? you cant speak about nerfing anything about any killer on this forum. here are more killers then survivors and they cant be objective, thats why everything gets downvoted to hell.
His movement speed should be 110 and then he would be balanced.
2 -
Chainsaw just needs a reasonable cool down is all. If someone can pick up the sticks, spam and kill survivors then yes, it's OP. Anybody can down all 4 survivors as Hillbilly/Cannibal.

Lol hillbilly OP 2019. Not even close.
Git gud at looping, don't be greedy, gen rush, play SWF, use meta perks = easy win, he can't do anything.

He can't saw you if you're looping him.

Are you trying to say Bubba is op and/or as strong as Hillbilly? @WildDovami
1 -
I find it unbelievable that Legion gets stunned for 4 seconds, while Hillybraindead can spam his chainsaw till you're dead.
2 -
Esqiusmi? I have to be a toxic survivor that runs meta perks like MoM just to counter Billy? Hahaha, not even in your dreams.
people just came in the wrong forum to say bad things about killers, this is mostly a killer mains forum and for almost all the killer mains every killer is balanced if they get 4k almost every game with him
my issues with billy are mostly his insta-chainsaw add-ons, they really need to be removed
1 -
Nothing of what I stated is toxic gameplay. Playing to win is tottaly fine and if people see these things as toxic then they have really bad sence of what is toxic behaviour and what is not.
Nobody forces you to use meta perks but if you complain about billy beiing too hard to play against while not using any or lame perks then it's your own fault that you're making it harder for yourself. You can beat any killer perkless (even when played by good players) you just have to gid gut and hope that your teammates do as well (or play SWF for easy wins).
Forum is more killer sided BECAUSE killers still aren't even remotely close to beiing the power role as they should be. Only 1 killer has partial control over the flow of the match and most killers are garbage that need serious buffing to even be able to put up with meta SWF survivor bs. If killers were the far superior role then forums would be survivor sided since in the end most of the people here on forums just want balanced experience from DBD. Luckily there are tons of really bad survivors even in high ranks or those who don't really tryhard for winning so that gives good chance to win even to low tier killers.
Though I agree that billy's instasaw addons are overtuned I don't agree about removing them. They should be nerfed like machinegun hatches were or remade into his new ultra rare addons but with some bigger drawbacks.

I agree we need to nerf Billy. He was able to chainsaw through rocks and trees. It's a bit ridiculous.
1 -
How many times you get 4k or 3k?
0 -
Why are kills so heavily focused on when it comes to balance when it doesn't mean a whole lot when it comes to actually winning AKA PIPing? I could probably pull decent kills with all of the killers if that were the goal but it would trash my score.

Billy is stupid strong but you can play around him. The problem is most PUGs have no idea how to play around Billy so they keep falling like flies to BBQ Billy.

If a killer gets nerfed doesn't mean that he will not be viable anymore.

If you really think that Billy is op, I guess you never played against a good nurse then.

base billy is the most balanced thing in the game
1 -
Nurse is stronger than billy but she is very prone to jukes.
0 -
The only nerf I want for him is a cooldown on his chainsaw when he misses and have the cooldown increase with by the distance traveled. So, if billy wiffs his chainsaw it would have like a 6 seconds cooldown if he didn't go far. But, if he were to travel all the way across the map, it would have a longer cooldown (like 15 seconds). This would reward good play and punish bad play. It would create a skillgap between good and bad Billy players.

He can if he knows curving.
