How weak is Billy?

Hoodied

For my next post being directed towards that chainsaw bro, I need to make sure I should look into him first

So here is a big question, what is all of Billy's issues without needing to remove Overheat

Whats all of Billy's issues when removing Overheat (Add-ons out of the question as Billy has overheat add-ons)

base kit he's okay, pre-rework was better as overheat feels a little unfair but it's not too oppressive. His add-on are just bad, they're gimmicky and mostly ineffective and it would be great if they updated them to be more consistent and effective. Like removing the conditions for the charge time ones (pallet stun and being 4.4) but maybe stop them from stacking or decreasing the values so even if they are stacked they aren't insane like what they did with Huntress's wind up add-ons some years back

Garbage Add-ons and messy hitboxes and animations. Fixing these would bring enjoyability and players back.

Serious question to Billy players/mains:

Would you rather have some addons that slightly reduce the chainsaw speed by a flat amount but cannot be stacked with one another or would you rather just have the base chainsaw charge speed reduced and have no charge addons of this kind?

I would prefer add-ons for it, 2.5 seconds by default is perfect

I think one of his weaknesses is that he is easily countered due to the limited number of add-ons he can use. Also, he is very map dependent and lacks stability.

Theres is no reason to punish yourself with playing billy when stronger, easier and killers with actually good add ons exist
