Killer Builds

🔪 Build 1 — "Crystal Lake Says Goodnight"

The Slasher · diabolical / attrition

A relentless M1 stalker, so the diabolical path is attrition: bleed them dry, smother the gens, slam the gates in their faces.

Perk	Why it's diabolical
Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance Artist	Every scourge-hook detonates the most-progressed gen (~15–20%) AND screams reveal who was on it. Free pressure + info every hook.
Pop Goes the Weasel Clown	Right after the hook, stomp a gen for a huge instant chunk. Stacked with Pain Res, progress evaporates twice per hook.
Sloppy Butcher General	Mangled + Haemorrhage — heals take forever and regress, and blood trails make tracking trivial. Perfect for a machete killer.
No Way Out Trickster	The cruelty finale. When they finally power the gates, both exits lock with a screaming alarm — time for one last lakeside execution.

Why it sings: Pain Res + Pop is a double-dip of gen loss on every single hook, Sloppy keeps survivors injured and trackable, and No Way Out turns the "escape" into a trap. Patient, grinding, demoralizing.

🩸 Open with a proactive scourge-hook, then immediately Pop the nearest gen — that double-dip is the engine.
🩸 Never let injured survivors heal — Sloppy + your presence means chasing the same wounded counselor over and over.
🩸 Spread hooks so Pain Res keeps hitting fresh high-value gens.
🩸 Save the tilt for the end — by last-gen, No Way Out buys a final sweep.

Spicy variation: swap No Way Out → Hex: Devour Hope. Patrol away from hooks, let it cook to 3 stacks, then start one-shotting and mori-ing. Higher risk (cleansable), maximum tilt.

🏒 The Slasher's Teachable Perks

Jason's own three perks — now live in the Loadout Generator.

Perk	Effect
Hex: Scared to Death	After hooking 3 different survivors, activates on a random totem. Breaking a pallet during a chase makes nearby survivors scream and suffer Hindered.
Silent Shadow	Become Undetectable for a short time after hooking a survivor; permanent Undetectable once the exit gates are powered.
Rampage	Gain tokens by breaking pallets and breakable walls. When stunned or blinded, gain Haste per token for a short time.

Pairs naturally with a pallet-heavy, chase-forward style — Rampage punishes the stuns survivors rely on, and Silent Shadow makes your post-hook approaches silent.

🪚 Build 1 — "Sunday Drive"

The Cannibal · anti-loop / mobility

The whole "Bubba goes where Bubba pleases" fantasy in one loadout: pallets and windows are suggestions, not obstacles. Rev the saw, eat the stun, and keep walking through their loop like it isn't there.

Perk	Why Bubba goes anywhere
Enduring Hillbilly	Pallet stuns are 40% shorter. Tank the drop, barely flinch, and stay glued to them instead of resetting the chase.
Spirit Fury Spirit	After breaking a few pallets, the next pallet they drop on you breaks itself. With Enduring you barely feel the stun before the loop is gone forever.
Bamboozle Clown	Faster vaults + the window blocks behind you. Shuts down the pallet-then-window loops survivors use to kite a chainsaw killer.
Brutal Strength Trapper	Break pallets and breakable walls 20% faster. Every wall Bubba wants gone, goes — and fast.

Why it sings: Enduring + Spirit Fury is the classic stun-eater core — survivors throw the pallet, it vanishes, and you're still on top of them with a hot saw. Bamboozle deletes their backup window, Brutal opens the map. Loops simply stop existing.

🪚 Don't respect pallets — walk into the stun on purpose once Spirit Fury is stacked.
🪚 Pre-rev going into a tile; even if they pre-drop, you eat it and keep the angle.
🪚 Use Bamboozle to force survivors off windows and into the open where a sweep insta-downs.

🔥 Build 2 — "Saw Family Cookout"

The Cannibal · insta-down snowball

Bubba's chainsaw downs the whole stack — so the build is about finding the stack. Hook one, see the rest, drive over, and sweep two or three at once.

Perk	Role in the snowball
Barbecue & Chilli Cannibal	His own. The moment you hook, every survivor beyond 40m lights up. That's your next chainsaw target, served on a platter.
Infectious Fright Plague	When the saw drops someone, everyone in your terror radius screams and reveals. A chainsaw multi-down becomes a free read on the cluster — keep sweeping.
Knock Out Cannibal	His own. Slugged survivors are blinded, crawl slower, and their auras hide from teammates. The people you sawed down stay lost while you hook.
Agitation Trapper	Move faster while carrying. Relocate the hook away from the slug pile (or straight to basement) so nobody gets a quick save.

Why it sings: BBQ finds the group, the chainsaw downs the group, Infectious tells you exactly who's still standing in the pile, and Knock Out makes the slugs un-rescuable while Agitation buys distance to hook. One good sweep can cascade into a 3- or 4-down.

🔥 After a hook, sprint toward the tightest BBQ aura cluster and pre-rev as you arrive.
🔥 If you down two with one sweep, read Infectious screams before you commit to picking up.
🔥 Leave a slug, hook the other, and let Knock Out turn the trial into a scramble.

🚪 Build 3 — "Bubba's Bouncer"

The Cannibal · anti-save / counterplay denial

A chainsaw killer's nightmare is the flashlight save, the item play, and the bodyblock wiggle. This build deletes all three — Bubba goes where he pleases because nobody can stop the pickup.

Perk	What it shuts down
Lightborn Blight	Immune to flashlight blinds, period. No interrupted pickups, no saved sweeps — and you see who wasted their battery trying.
Franklin's Demise Cannibal	His own. Your hits knock items out of their hands; flashlights and medkits bleed charges on the ground. No tool, no save.
Mad Grit Legion	While carrying, hitting a survivor pauses your wiggle and removes the swing cooldown. Bodyblockers and sabo squads get punished instead of rewarded.
Iron Grasp Trapper	Wiggle progresses far slower and struggle effects are weaker. The person you carry is going to the hook you chose.

Why it sings: Lightborn + Franklin's removes the flashlight game entirely, Mad Grit + Iron Grasp removes the bodyblock-and-wiggle game. Survivors are left with no counterplay to a chainsaw down — exactly the reputation Bubba was built for.

🚪 Pick up facing the would-be saver — with Lightborn you can stare them down safely.
🚪 Swing at bodyblockers mid-carry; Mad Grit means free hits and a frozen wiggle bar.
🚪 Franklin's is strongest early — strip their flashlights before they ever set up a save.

⛓️ The Cannibal's Teachable Perks

Bubba's own three perks — staples that show up far beyond his own loadouts.

Perk	Effect
Barbecue & Chilli	After hooking a survivor, the auras of all other survivors more than 40m from the hook are revealed for a few seconds. The premier "find your next target" perk.
Knock Out	Survivors you down with a basic attack are afflicted with Blindness, crawl slower, and have their aura hidden from teammates beyond a range — slugging insurance.
Franklin's Demise	Your basic attacks force survivors to drop their item; the item loses charges on the ground and its aura is revealed to you. Hard counter to flashlights and medkits.

Power note: The Chainsaw insta-downs and can sweep multiple survivors at once, but a bumped obstacle drops Bubba into a Tantrum (a long, vulnerable stun). The builds above lean into the saw's strengths — multi-downs, mobility, anti-save — while minimizing the moments where survivors can punish that Tantrum window.

🕯️ Hex Misery

For when you want survivors doing bones instead of gens — a one-shot, totem-anxiety nightmare.

Perk	Role
Hex: Devour Hope Hag	The payoff — Exposed one-shots and a mori at 3+ stacks. Patrol away from hooks to bank tokens.
Hex: Undying Blight	Protects your hexes — when one totem is cleansed, the hex jumps to another dull totem.
Hex: Ruin Hag	Constant gen regression while it lives. Combined with Undying it's a long, painful cleanse hunt.
Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance Artist	Backup pressure that isn't totem-dependent, so you still win if the hexes die early.

⚠️ Diminishing-returns note: our Loadout Generator weights stacked Hexes down on purpose — three Hexes is high-variance (lose the totems early and you're running 1–2 perks). High reward, real risk. Bring a map offering with few totem spawns at your peril.

⚙️ Standard Slowdown

The reliable, non-gimmick oppression package. Works on every killer in the roster.

Perk	Role
Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance Artist	Per-hook gen detonation + scream info.
Pop Goes the Weasel Clown	Big targeted regression after every hook.
Deadlock Cenobite	Blocks the most-progressed gen whenever one completes — quiet, passive slowdown.
Corrupt Intervention Plague	Blocks the three farthest gens early, forcing survivors toward you for fast first pressure.

Why: No totems to lose, no setup required. Pain Res + Pop punish every hook, Corrupt buys the opening, Deadlock buys the close. Boring to face = exactly the point.
