Billy was enabling the gen rush meta

It's true. He can instantly down the entire team at the start of a match, patrol every gen non-stop, and is further enhanced by perks that also do the same thing. What other killer can do the same thing?

Though that appears to be reason enough to keep things the way they are. Because there's a killer to counter it no?

The upcoming rework will make him more humble. He'll have to manage his resources. Maybe actually basic attack something that isn't someone fresh off the hook.

Every other killer for months/years had some disadvantage and followed the base guidelines of how to play and what happened to them? They're all in C tier. Because the game is designed around S killers.

With this trend of nerfing S tier killers, the devs can finally gauge what survivor tools are too effective. Survivors have been constantly nerfed and still they're at the top. Now they'll have even less standing in the way of their day of reckoning. The Billy enabling is over. The survivors must be weakened!

True balance is around the corner.

Edited for clarity. Edited again.

    Yeah - Whenever I'm playing Trapper or Clown and 2 gens pop across the map before I can even physically get there thanks to god-tier survivor spawns, I always shake my fist and say, "Damn you, Billy!"

    Your logic is unbelievably flawed, as you're attributing optimal survivor play to a completely irrelevant thing.

    Why are you playing Clown? Just play Billy and that won't happen lmao.

    This is just a conspiracy theory with zero evidence to back it up to justify unjustifiable nerfs.

    Ps: This happened before with nurse where all these conspiracy theories popped up saying survivors are only doing X/Y/Z because of nurse only for survivors to continue to do X/Y/Z even after the nurse's nerf.

    Killers ultimately have very little to do with how survivors play as survivors are the ones who dictate how the game goes for the most part.

    Thank you for mentioning this, I've seen a post similar to this saying that gens are going to fast because of nurse, and nerfing her would fix that.

    And after the Nurse nerf, in fact the problem go worse and that Nurse got completely killed off by bugs and the cooldown bar. This is just another post trying to justify the Billy nerf, despite many survivors and killers and streamers saying that it was a bad idea to nerf billy.

    And they said it was a bad idea to nerf Ruin, and to this day no one still knows why they did it.

    Jk everyone knows why, because they wanted an easy game. Oh, people can EASILY hit those skill checks according to the old Ruin fans right? Then theres no issue am i right?

    There are very clearly defined REASONS why but you and everyone you choose to surround yourself with choose to ignore it. People obviously took issue with it, but you choose to ignore those gripes.

    I'm not giving a reason for these changes. They were already there. All I'm doing is trying to add another layer to it.

    Stay salty.

    I don't think Billy was enabling anything, with or without him genrush will still very much be a thing, however, I do think there's a bit of truth in the rest.

    Nerfing billy might actually mean survivor heavy changes or nerf might be coming down the line and they are laying down the prep work, why did they choose to nerf killer first one by one tho ? It's BHVR, logical thinking is not their forte.

    The Game is 4 to 1. That also means despite the killer being the centerpiece of each game, there will be far more player feedback on the survivor side. That will always be the reason for killer first, then survivor.

    It's an older brother complex. More responsibility is put in the killers hands to dole out what the experience will be. Instead of embracing the role, most killer players just want to exact their power over people weaker than them.
