Why I think this new “idiotic, stupid and 0 brain cell” Billy nerf is coming

I think the reason for this unjustified billy nerf(even more unjustified than nurse) is because they cater and balance around the potatoes, they don’t listen to the people who have played for a while and know the game, they know that the potatoes will be cash cows so they will cater to them.

They would probably also say they added this new “feature” to his saw to make more addon diversity

Its about time they start balancing around high rank survivors/killers because we will all be there one day and treat all survivors like SWF so balancing can be easier

    I just hate his ulta-rare, its so bad i cant even fathom why they would add it. A speed limiter in exchange for continuing through a pallet, like WHAT.

    Just remove the speed limiter effect and its kinda decent, definitely not overpowered being able to power through a pallet with a saw.

    Honestly, I feel like that is too strong.

    IMO it should just make it so that it damages by one state if you break a pallet and then hit somebody, but if you chainsaw them without a pallet it still one shots.

    That way playing smart around loops via curving is still encouraged (assuming the nerfs don't gut that potential, but I remain open minded till the PTB), without making pallet chainsaw hits too strong.

    The best part is how niche it is, in exchange for neutering his power, as an ULTRA RARE. Survivor throws the pallet early at a short loop, good chance they'll get to the side fast enough for you to not even guarantee a hit. At that point, if you miss, you lose ground or god forbid you bump into a side of the loop in the spot where the pallet was trying to flick after them, now you're losing even more ground. If you misjudge or the survivor can play the distance correctly, they might even be able to just bait the pallet, and you're sitting there overheating your chainsaw and removing the ability to be able to use it after the play, regardless of the outcome. Best case scenario? you broke the pallet and got a hit, while they speed burst away. It just looks absolutely awful for its rarity.

    This is a high rank balance what do you mean? It means if you already know how to play billy it won’t effect you if you don’t it gives more incentive to learn how to

    That was my idea too..itd make the addon fair on both ends
