Mortal Kombat X: How to Play Leatherface

Butcher

The Butcher is basically an upgraded Killer. Leatherface ditches the Berserker Stance, but gains standard specials that are useful for different situations. This variation still lacks a ranged attack, yet the slight increase in speed will help those who prefer powerful chainsaw specials to ranged abilities.

Leatherface also has access to his trusty mallet when playing as the Butcher, which adds extra damage to your melee attacks. It also provides a few stunning abilities making this the most brutal of all three variations.

If you like Killer, but want a little more mobility, then Butcher is the variation you should choose.
