No, its not any monkey that can pickup billy and instantly 4k, billy takes practice, and if you're playing agaisn't a good team, said monkey would be lucky to hit 1 chainsaw.
I don't think so. He severely punishes bad positioning and forces you to stay conservative at loops. A decent Billy will obliterate less experienced survivors but have diminishing returns in higher level play.
No. Billy isn't OP, he punishes mistakes just like any 1 hit killer. If one good survivor catches a chase, he can easily get 2-3 gens popped unless a mistake is made. Run your loops correctly and a 4k for the Billy is nearly impossible.
Billy is strong but not OP. He is probably what most killers should be balanced around. Powerful but counter-able. I've seen billys tear through groups with the chainsaw while others looped him so well he had to M1 them to death.
Hillbilly is one of the harder killers to master and he is very strong, but never really op . The only thing i would change are some of his addons. Make tuning guide and engravings ultra rare and Thompson, Primer bulp and Death Engravings purple. Or rework his addons at all.
I played hillbilly at rank 1 almost exclusively until Oni came out. All of Billy's charge addons are ridiculously powerful for their rarity and need to be nerfed. CTG is easily one of the top 5 most powerful addons in the game, and things like spark plug and primer bulb do wayyy to much for being a brown and yellow respectively, especially seeing as they have 0 downsides. Base Billy is perfect, he's a killer that a new player can learn and excel at low ranks with, but will get stomped at higher ranks unless they starts to learn tricks and techniques that separate the average Billys from the good ones (Curves, slides, even stuff as simple as feathering at pallets). And all of his other addons are perfect: engravings have a powerful effect while also containing a big drawback in charge time, and his turn addons change how he can be played and buff his power without being oppressive. It's just the charge addons that make builds like instasaw and crack billy overpowered, because they negate all drawbacks of his power basically for free.
Hes pretty good but not OP, and the reason you do your "ez 4ks" is because you were playing with bots. Even though billy is a good killer, his most weakness is that he can be looped, you can force him to M1 you (which often happens to me).
He's OP when compared to the other killers. So maybe they're just all really undertuned?
But like, look at Oni. Oni is a super strong killer that can snowball. But he has to collect blood to gain the sprint & the 1-shot. Hillbilly... always has sprint & 1-shot. And doesn't have a bar for his run either.
That's the difference to me. Billy has base kit abilities that other killers have to power up but he doesn't. By definition, that makes him better than them.
Im usually rank 1, and i can tell you rank doesn't really matter for survivors. I have seen rank 1 survivors that doesn't look back, and you can algo get in there by just repairing, at least you can go to rank 4 this way. Im telling you this because im a billy main, and like other people say, this is one of the few killers that is balanced, or really close to be.
Leatherface is the most OP killer if you camp with him, that doesnt make him a OP killer though. "Snipes" are you talking about curving in loops or just sniping with a long chainsaw, because both of those moves are counterable. Good Billies are tough to face though, hence their curving skills

The point is that even with all that, it's not even close to what survivors
I got 99 problems and a Billy ain't one.

I did the exact same thing as the OP. I had ONE bad game against high purples as a low green, then started smashing everyone of a similar rank.
It's not that he's OP but he's too easy to play for what you can get out of him.
worst thing is,i'm pretty sure ur a billy main aswell. Toolboxes are fine :F
Oni main
no. no. no. no. no. no. no. no. no. no. no.
My memory is messed up then,thought you said you played alot of billy :F
100% no. I love playing as AND against him.
Curving with the saw makes my nipples dance.
He is actually the most balanced killer in the game
His power has counters, his power has decent map pressure and can one shot down
He is actually the killer to make you focus on him to make sure he is not about to hit you with a chainsaw
Billy's op bro
I did at one point
