The One Cook Build To Rule Them All...| The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

if you play The Cook a lot like me in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and have constant Grapples and stuns well i've crafted a pretty decent build that will help with it, so sit back and relax because basement cook is on the way.

Middi that thumbnail could be in a museum

[@poizntree]

No but for real it's so artistic, nobody but middi could make me captivated by the cook's face 😅

Beat me too it. That thumbnail hit my funny bone. Good one!

@crimsonmason5418 Oh, absolutely! That's why I always chuckle whenever in the movie he's like, "I just can't take much pleasure in killing ," and then 10 seconds later, he's laughing his head off at Sally's torment. Truly, a madman is he.

Middi playing Cook means all is right in the world rn

[@mylesmitchell8092]

On sissy I’ve been using a build I think you might enjoy it’s Scout Wire frame/fired up Slow and steady Scout removes the debuff of slow and steady and you also get a extra 5% speed with 50% less stamina consumption

[@isaiahcontreras1761]

I cant stop thinking about cook scalping leeland and wearing his hair lol

[@cameron1037]

I dare you to only heal by healing others and using the perk that heals u when u heal others. Love ur vids btw

[@OkMiddi]

It's crazy to think how hard that is to do considering nobody ever sits still haha

[@hallowedchromee310]

@@OkMiddi If you play Virginia people might be more willing because of how she gets Rescue Medic, and you could pair it with Extra Drip to further improve on the heals it gives out. But yeah, I wish there was some way to ping when you want healing/want to heal someone.

That thumbnail is legendary

[@t0jit0ucher]

COOK MAINS UNITE!

[@MrDrCthulhu]

Sure, big boy might be taking Leland's face after all this, but we know the cook's taking his hair for a toupée! It's the ultimate barge revenge!

[@ssjcuatro4016]

I honestly could not stop laughing when i first saw the thumbnail. I swear Middi is the only youtuber who can consistently make me laugh xD

[@jordfolk]

if you consider the math behind activated vs serrated. it will be that activated only catch up at 48 savagery with 0.04 dmg per hit in its favor so sadly its not worth taking instead of serrated on cook :( if its perfect hit count on a 50 toughness victim, take serrated with 42 savagery as it will be a 5 hit kill even if it went all the way up to 50 savagery (though higher savagery maybe helps with a hit less in case of victims with lower toughness). (this math doesn't apply if they have the dmg resistance perk or skill) with both serrated and activated at the same time the magic number on savagery moves to 47 for 4 hit kill or 35 for 5 hit with activated active). Love your videos btw. the energy always gets me.

[@GrifVII]

In terms of the question at 8:00 with GP perks. I prefer exterior first personally. Because you can continually apply early game pressure from the get go, and prevents rushers from getting through unnoticed. 😁

[@TheResistanceLeader]

What's going on Middi? You Lots here, eating good with this Cook gameplay today.

[@aydenvz]

i love cook

[@TheHeroVincent]

Hey Middi! After watching so many of your videos I just picked up the game and have been playing Cook while I learn the ropes! I already had a few great games from all of your advice and videos!

[@OkMiddi]

Glad to hear it my friend!

[@cantankerouskarkles2363]

Finally some justice for the hairline

[@DevanHorror_]

I think there's some kind of bug with close encountering Connie.

That suggested Family Member sounds like Chop-top "nam flashback"

[@BillyWaddle-m2h]

Yes let’s go a new cook video thank you middi just made my day so much better

[@Yumlick]

Serrated is better in almost every way. Victims you hit will consistently leave blood trails, plus it is always active. At 43-50 Savagery, it takes Cook 6 hits to kill a 50 toughness victim. If Activated is active for every hit, it takes 5 hits instead. At 42-50 Savagery and using Serrated, it takes Cook 5 hits to kill a 50 toughness victim. The only time where Serrated might be worse is if you hit the victim too quickly and your Serrated is refreshed instead of stacking (since your Serrated stacks shouldn't stack according to ancient patch notes). To go even deeper, at 46 Savagery, one swing does 24.4 damage and 29.28 damage while Activated is online. Compare this to Serrated, and you'll see that (if you only get one hit off) Serrated deals 0.12 more damage than Activated per hit. This only changes at 48 Savagery and above, and caps out at +0.2 damage at 50 Savagery when Activated is online (compared to Serrated). Since Activated is not always active, in my opinion, Serrated is the clear winning choice for Cook (especially considering that you are unlikely to get multiple hits off on any decent survivor, especially if they have just stunned you).

[@thehistoricclown]

I love how informative these videos are and they are entertaining as hell 😂 also where would you suggest padlocks on slaughterhouse

[@OkMiddi]

I normally go by where the fuse is, whatever door the fuse is closest too i don't lock that way i can keep guard of it and the fuse

[@thehistoricclown]

​@@OkMiddithanks keep up the good cooking

[@fumycase]

Eveytime i make a new perk build middi makes the same within a week I’ve gained the middi mindset

[@DuneCrescent]

Excellent play as always mate. The floating blood bottle feed at 12:30 was a good laugh

[@Vex-zz7br]

the connie thing is just you. I literally ran 50 strength w/ 80 percent health and still lost to suffocating grip. I feel like SG should be nerfed, especially now that only one person can have grappler. I feel like there's no reason someone w/ 50 strength should be losing a close encounter while above half health.

[@TheSweatiestHands]

this has nothing to do with cook, before the skill tree update, i ran scout, vialent and activated with bubba, and would have my brother just door stun me so i could murder lelands or danny's right away. it was such a broken build if you ran a duo lol, 40% damage every 40 seconds or flat 20 with vialent. but now you cant sadly lol

[@cyberkkult]

Yeah Connie is for sure bugged, I’ve seen her win against suffocating grip even after being hit 4 times by a Johnny

[@Buraunia]

Its a hard life for cook.

[@artmospherc]

We need more Leland games 🤌🏻

[@ILikeSkulls617]

Why not instead of Activated, use Vialent? Sadly, you wont have Security Pins.

[@tommychilln]

exterior for sure. me and all of my friends who play this dont run any other gpa perks but exterior.

[@420theacid]

Suffocating grip

[@mikaelsmith5094]

On Nancy's house i place the same locks at the beginning. Otherwise if a Connie escapes the house door she's gone.

[@shellerz_6339]

That crumbly old shuffler ❤ you gotta love him

[@VraskaTheScene]

I think a good way to do map voting is where both sides get a vote and they have to agree, then the game chooses a random map from the two, that would be kinda fair

[@Miningkevo1Gameplayz]

I love your cook vids always so entertaining

[@sidious3820]

does activated get activated when you’re door slammed by another family member? if so 😈

[@tizzi91able]

Is so broken at 25% that level 1 grampa perk. Always win the fight

[@Dr_JK]

Anyone notice @15:53 where if you get stunned by Hands' trap it triggers Activated?

[@DandyDook]

You actually get pretty much the same damage with both activated(31.2 at 50 sav) and serrated(31 at 50 sav), but serrated works all the time, unlike activated that has a requirement and a timer. Serrated is silly strong. Put it on Sissy and it's like giving her a 30-35% increase in damage with just one perk.

[@dazu681]

Connie has grappler for some unknown reason, that’s why she wins

[@melony_felony]

bikini cook skin when?

[@myspacezs]

I prefer the version with serrated, by the way I love playing Cook!

[@0127geo]

The hitch tbag🤣🤣🤣

[@thehowwhat9867]

If a victim works on a door lock and gets 2 bars in and stops. Could the killers unlock that door and then relock to reset the progress made, tricking the victim? I always wondered. Awsome video 10/10

[@WebPoster420]

The reason you didnt win on Connie was probably due to her being high health. Victim always start Grapples with an advantage, and your health affect how much each tap does. Ana most likely had basekit 20 (i think its 20? Idk i dont play much victim these days.) strength on, and was probably lower health.

[@IAmProdAG]

No she's bugged right now. Connie is winning all grapples right now for some reason. Even if you have suffocating grip.

[@chiarenza451]

I was running this for awhile The victims love bullying cook I be minding my own business victims will come from 200 ft away to try and backstab me

[@KinOfCrow]

Scout, Serrated and Pins. I like to switch out pins for an additional endurance perk usually.

[@WusigiDr1]

I'd love a family version of the builds you use for each one of them. Just like the victim one!
