Is this game ever going to address how OP Billy Is?

The only things that need nerfing on Billy are insta-saw and the hitbox of chainsaw through walls/trees. Even as Billy I've chainsawed through trees before, like the survivor is clear on the other side and I still hit them. Pretty sure it has something to do with the Unreal Engine update a few months back because it never seemed to happen before that.

But Billy himself is fine.

If the clown get the mobility of a chainsaw-sprint, then please on a unicycle with him juggling his flasks. That would be a nice clown.

This.

Sloppy butcher is only good for slugging nothing else. Why do you think you see many nurse using it with nurse calling. Why vigil is considerated being useless ? why no one play chains on Billy , why huntress players only use exhausted add-ons same for clown.

The only status effect that are great are hindered/exhausted at 95% of the time. Blindness don't work with SwF , Hemorrage could be great if players would be more sneaky , mangled can work with slug build but is easily countered by adrenaline/autodidact/instaheal/coop healing. Broken effect is also a great effect but it's still not enough look at plague how his power is a joke.

Nurse is OP when mastered her add-ons are a problem but base nurse have a high skill cap. Plus comparing her to billy is comparing old freddy to new freddy.

I am scared, why does the first post have so much upvotes? Do people really want such a good killer to be nerfed? I find Billy tenseful, but he is very balanced. Loopable, chainsaws can be dodged, and his power is simple and powerful.

Like I said in every thread demanding to unnecessarily nerf killers, the game will become boring with weaker killers.

Hold up, I just realized this was a necroed thread. Yikes.

I would have to disagree with Billy being overpowered. While yes, he is very strong in many ways. Great map presence, an instadown and he destroys pallets with his chainsaw. Even if is not to instadown with billy you can always just use the chainsaw to catch up to a survivor and get a regular hit off. Billy is a nice relaxing killer which a high skill ceiling.

While I am myself a Billy main and I do say this from experience, but Billy still needs to deal with chases, pallet loops and window loops. Sure, certain Billy mains who transended Godhood can cut loops with chainsaws, something I can do myself, and even beyond God Billies can somehow go up haystacks in coldwind farm, something I haven't mastered yet.

However despite Hillbilly being always a consistently powerful killer. There is one example I would like to bring up when it comes to Billy. He does have a reliance for survivor mistakes. Most of the time I instadown survivors are due to them giving me the opportunity to and I take the open opportunity. Survivors who know how to properly loops a Hillbilly will never get hit by the chainsaw, and I know because I had matches when that happened, and I'm not a bad Billy main either, I'm really good at playing Hillbilly. Which is why I learn when and when not to use his chainsaw. Because sometimes you have an opening to instadown them and sometimes you don't.

Yes Hillbilly is probably the best killer when it comes down to hatch closing and end game activation. But really it depends on the map. Maps like Lerrys and The Entity forbid, The Game Map are probably Hillbilly's kryptonite. It limits his chainsaw. While Billys can still win in such maps, I'm sure I speak for all Billy mains that those two maps are the biggest pain to deal with.

Believe it or not, Hillbilly is actually one of the most balanced killers. He shines bright when he can punish survivor mistakes, but survivors with an equal amount of experience can make it really hard for Hillbilly players. Unlike Nurse and Spirit who really only loose by their mistakes, Billy looses if the survivors aren't super optimal. My favorite Twitch Streamer Tru3 proves this in a way on one of his games. While he doesn't deny Billy is strong. He's not Nurse or Spirit level where if you master them, you win every game.

Billy is close to that, but Billy really only wins by outplaying and capitalizing on mistakes. That's what he does best, and I know I'm darn good at punishing survivors for making mistakes like going out in the open, or going to a loop I can cut threw my chainsaw turn.

I can give more examples, but I think this will do. If you disagree that's perfectly fine. You're entitled to your opinion. I respect yours, and do hope you see things differently.

A. Learn to loop

B. Learn to vault windows (a groundbreaking concept, I know).

C. Learn how to juke his saw. Force an m1 hit.

D. Apply gen pressure to prevent a snowball. Don't be so altruistic.

Lol.

Here we are.

I love this comunity /sarcasm
