Passive

Dog Will Hunt
After performing or being attacked with a combo ender, Leatherface has a 30% chance to become enraged: 300% damage boost for 6 seconds,

Team Passive

Whenever a teammate stuns an opponent, there is a 50% chance Leatherface will come running from behind to attack.

Role

Nightmare Leatherface is a short-window damage attacker who can also assist a teammate's Stun. A successful Enrage trigger is the signal to convert the next few seconds into offense.

Strengths

Combo enders from either side can trigger his damage window. Off-field assistance gives allied Stun sources an additional possible follow-up without requiring him to take over every exchange.

Weaknesses

Enrage and assistance are chance-based, and Enrage is brief. Taking a dangerous combo ender solely to seek the trigger risks losing more health than the offensive opportunity is worth.

Best teams

Choose an ally with a Stun source, such as a suitable Jason or Kabal, to create assistance opportunities. The specific Stun interaction matters more than an unsupported assumption about every horror-themed pairing.

Where to use

He suits fights where you can react quickly to an Enrage trigger. Keep a normal damage plan for stretches when neither the burst window nor the off-field assist occurs.
