Billy Checklist Before You Queue

  • Need cleaner target routing: Build 1.
  • Need structured gen interception: Build 2.
  • Need chain-down threat against grouped teams: Build 3.
  • Need brute anti-pallet chase help: Build 4.
  • Need anti-window reliability: Build 5.

Drill-Style Play Notes

Drill 1: Hook Exit

After every hook, call destination in one second. If you hesitate, you already lost tempo.

Drill 2: Saw Economy

Use mobility for map leverage, not only for downs. Crossing map with intent is value.

Drill 3: Chase Break Discipline

If chase moves into a low-value corner and no gen threat exists there, break and rotate.

Drill 4: Window Timing

Do not hold Pop/Tinkerer value "for later." Billy wins by immediate conversion.

Optional Replacements
