How to Survive the Chef (Frog)
The Chef, or Tumlber, is a slow-moving, frog-like menace with a love for dramatic leaps and reckless cleaver swings. It stops, smiles creepily, then lunges at the first player it sees, slashing wildly on impact.
What Makes It Dangerous?
High damage attack, but not an instant kill.
Ragdolls if it misses, giving you a brief window to counterattack.
Unpredictable lunges can catch you off guard if you're not paying attention.
How to Avoid Its Attacks
Stay alert—if it stops and smiles, get ready to dodge.
Sidestep its leap—don’t stand in a straight line.
Strike while it's flailing—it’s helpless for a few seconds after missing.
How to Fight It
Wait for it to jump, then punish the miss—it takes a moment to recover.
Use ranged weapons if possible, since it’s slow before it leaps.
If you’re feeling greedy, go melee, but make sure you have an exit plan.
Is It Worth Fighting?
Killing the Chef drops between $1.5k and $3k, making it a solid payday.
Just make sure you’re the one doing the chopping, not the other way around.
