Playing against Bubba

So I seem to struggle a lot against Bubba and do not really know the counterplay for him, I don't want to say that he is op although I do think his skill cap is too low and is a bit too easy to play for an instadown killer so if anyone has some pointers I'd appreciate it.

    He asked to know how to vs Bubba. Git gut isnt an answer.

    His main counter is hugging loops and hitting objects with his chainsaw, but even then a small clip and you're instantly down.

    I always thought his chainsaw shoulda counted as a regular hit but with multiple chances to hit more than once.

    Fat trees are your friend vs bubba! Hug them as tightly as you can, and you can often outrun his chainsaw, but of course a good Bubba would try to mindgame this too. But sometimes it catches even the best off guard.

    So basically, windows. They're your best friend. Vault one and you good, he can't get you through it and can't break them.

    Pallets are kinda cool but he can just break em and once you're out you're out. Don't greed for the stun or extra loops, just drop the pallet and ######### book it.

    If you're in the open with nothing just try and find some debris and run around it. Keep going and hope he tantrums or runs out of charges.

    As a fun fact he can only saw for 6 seconds before having to wait 4 seconds per charge to return. For every 2 seconds that's one more charge gone. So if he saws for 4 seconds you have 8 seconds before he can go for another 6 second saw.

    If you have a locker but can't make it to anything else, just jump in it. If he cancels his saw you can run out, if he keeps it up he tantrums, or he can go into his dash. Here he could purposefully tantrum; don't get out yet he can still down you. There's a small window between tantrum ending and him being able to grab you, just try your best to hit that window. It's far from ideal so you should use this as a last resort.

    Don't greed for sprint burst; he can actually catch up to you if you sprint burst in his face. Just make distance. Distance distance distance; he has no mobility so you just have to absolutely leg it.

    That's about it. Good luck :)
