Remove J-Flicks and you are killing yet another fun and balanced killer.
All these people asking for J-flicks to be removed and now that it might actually be happening, like what is going on? Do people want to vs stridor spirits and forever freddys everygame? First billy gets hurt and now blight? Idk what the obsession is with destroying any killers who are balanced for both sides and fun but if this goes ahead it's going to hurt the game TREMENDOUSLY. J-flicks is probably the most high skilled thing in teh game atm. Contrary to what ppl will tell you, it is NOT easy to play blight, let alone pull of J flicks. If you think it's that easy, then show me just how "easy" it is.
Please do not gut blight, probably the most balanced kilelr for both sides atm.

Spinning in a circle as survivor isn't even bound to the mouse, so you're straight up lying. It's bound to the buttons.
Yeah it's actually kinda silly that this thread says j-flicking is balanced
Then says it puts Blight on the same tier as Nurse and Spirit, two killers who's powers break the game in one way or another.
I figure doubt how to do it with no Information beyond a video clip, in my first trial attempting it, and used it to relatively easily 4k. I believe it took me about 5 minutes to get it. I have since done several bouts of testing and have come to the conclusion that it is very easy and removes Blights only direct counterplay, essentially turning him into Nurse or Spirit.
It can be countered.
Don't keep acting like it can't be countered,
Even in comp. People expect it AND clearly counters it,
Like i said. if he gets this removed. Nobody will compete with spirit,
Literally the only powerful boi that bhvr released that Rivals her with J-flicks.
How can you even compare spirit/freddy to a jflicking blight? They are the complete opposite. One takes the highest amount of skill in the game and has counterplay. The other too take the least amount of skill and have the least amount of counterplay.
You can't turn ur camera fast enough to spin well though if you have low dpi. Look at any good survivors out there and the way they spin. They ALL turn the camera incredibly fast.
You can't blame people for that if almost all of them didn't even knew that something like this even exists in the first place.
So Hunter tech is the same thing you already did against a curve billy,right?
Nurse is fine though. And the reason i'm defending blight being this strong is because hes one of the few strong killers whos actually there for the RIGHT reasons, in that they are strong AND balanced/fair.
That's the problem then right, people are complacent and don't comment/know about this stuff until they see a few forums posts or something and then they jump on these bandwagons without doing their research.
Yea it is pre much.
You missed the point but okay
I'm saying you don't need an exploit to play Blight well and claiming he's only balanced if you exploit is an insult to people who play him the way he's intended to be played
I have a few clips of me J-flicking, I'll try to make a compilation out of it if I feel like it. Someone even gave me this comment despite me 3k'ing the game (last guy got hatch). J-flick is easier than it looks, but it's not easy nor is it difficult to perform.
Hi.
Bound to sensitivity, which can also accommodate for lower sensitivity console players allowing them to turn their cameras faster, allowing them to do the same survivor tricks as their PC fellows, though it is still a bit harder, it's not impossible.
I feel like you're trying to forge an argument that just... isn't there.
For every 50 times i've been spun by a pc player, i've been spun by probably 1 console player if you're lucky. You're not seriously telling me spining on console is the same as pc?
dude let me tell you something. YOU CAN PLAY HIM WITHOUT THAT #########. i can win without any cheap trick. GET GOOD DUD
Woah you can beat a 4man rank 20 megs. Well done.
Sure you can play him without it but he's alot less fun and alot weaker. Come vs my team if you think it's that easy to play him.
I don't stream, sorry bud.
hahaha, dude seriously learn to play. you don't need to cheat to win, that's pathetic. i have face swf rank with all the meta #########, and guess what. only one escape because he has a key. play him more please, he is a strong killer without that #########
To do it properly every flick is just bout impossible.
Or well. hard to do say the least,
And it can still be countered... not game breaking nor exploitin'...
People that use stridor on spirit are bad.
Yet people still use stridor.
It makes him unique in a way
this will remove Any killer getting close towards spirit level
There is no point to be made when people complain bout it,
People don't want to have a Unique killer to do something that actually requires skill to use,
at this point, i don't blame people for maining spirit / nurse,
In-fact. blight still has his issues with bugs related that still aren't fixed..
But yeah. lets nerf blight / oni despite the fact they will be Hard countered,
That's cool.
I do play Tournament in-fact.
The Varity of killers are Lackluster.
Barely any killer is comp viable at it stands
Blight / Spirit / Nurse stands the best chance,
Hag is terrible against good survivors as it is
People pre-throw against freddy, Aswel with Oni,
This game is very heavily survivor sided as it stands. Maybe not for solos
But even 4 good solos can be strong,
You'll end up nerfing Oni which would hurt him if blight gets nerfed,
That's because they cave in to survivors in every single thing that they do, which is why nobody coming to this game sticks with killer. The developers are clearly misguided and do not make the best decisions, this is not debatable.
Oni can also 180 flick. albeit more harder since you need to time it right to hit said survivor,
Bro, are we still on about this? This is the 10th ######### thread I've seen about this in a week! Contribute to another thread about it or just let it go. There's nothing as far as we know being done about the exploit, keep using it if you want and when something is done about it, whether making it a feature and accessable for all players including console or getting rid of the option to do it then we can talk. Bud damn, had to make another thread about it.
Because it make's said Killer Unique.
and How is it the Weakest.. it has it's views. it's ups and downs. (Albeit bhvr did one but we don't talk bout that)
I'm arguing for the sake that It SHOULD stay in the game, Anytime killer get's something new / actual uniqueness to said killer (WHICH affects only two out of the 22) tell me. How many Onis / blights do you go up against everyday?
And how many do they even try to 180 or do a accidental 100 and flicking the other way, Lemme tell you. below the 1%,
Both of the things you listed are no longer in the game. Lol
It quite literally is. I play PS4.
Stop getting spun 4head.
Wait you guys can flick?
"Every console player"
PC Blight has almost no counterplay. If you're at a turn so wide that they can 180 then maybe Blight should actually have a situation where he can't just brainlessly use his power. I can't even hit a 60 degree turn (if not even 50) on console but you think PC should be allowed to hit full 180s, get out of town.
If it's not allowed in the game itself, than it needs to be dealt with. Honestly I'm gonna say this, people who abuse the J flicking with Blight and stretching their screens for advantages are just straight up bad at the game. The tryhards in this game like to abuse both of them, and therefore honestly are what ruin the game for other people.
Is 360ing really an exploit though? If it’s been in the game for almost 5 years I’m assuming the devs are okay with it
As for J tech console players can’t do it so you either remove it for both or add it in for both
360's were removed when the animations changed...
Blight is intended to have a hard cap on his lunge radius while in rush
Having a high DPI breaks this restriction put in by the devs on purpose as a balancing tool for blights insane mobility
There has never been a cap on his lunge. It's not like people are breaking this so called "cap" to do this. THis is just what happens when you use a higher sense for ANY character.
Also Why is nurse allowed to literally teleport through walls and spirit allowed to move at insane speeds WHISLT invisible without any caps on their turning etc then? That makes no sense.
So you think that vsing blights who can J-flick ruins ur experience? Sorry i'll go play spirit instead and give you a funner experience.
You do realise oni has a hard cap for his demon dash lunge right?
Both Nurse and spirit are OP. I’ve been advocating for these two to be nerfed for awhile now
If they wanted to adopt it as a mechanic they'd have to make it 100% "basekit", as in available to everyone regardless of their input method. I highly doubt they will do so and I think it will be fixed, but if they did they'd have to do that as you can't up and down your DPI on a controller and it's even easier on some mice than others.
And even then they'd still have to fix something, as the same problem would still exist. People could still add another layer of DPI-swapping j-flick on top of the officially adopted extra turning ability. The underlying flaw with the game won't go away by simply adopting it as a mechanic as it's a flaw with an extremely fundamental aspect of the game.
Considering Blight was already considered high tier and one of the more skill based killers at launch, agreed. I think this is just exploiters that struggle to actually use his power as intended and use an exploit for easy downs.
You're comparing intentional design to an (acknowledged by the devs) unintentional exploit.
Yeah, Spirit is ######### lame to play against but she was designed that way.
Also, in what universe do you need J flicks to do well as blight? He's a strong killer with a decently high learning curve. Considering that you need to mess with your dpi outside of the game to even be able to do it. That should already tell you something.
This technique is a "cure" for the symptom. If Blight's turning radius was tweaked juuuust a bit, it wouldn't be as necessary. Without it, he is too easy to juke, especially for a novice player going against knolwedgable players (which we all know happens more than it should). I remember the first time I got hit with it. I was a mix of confused and livid. I asked the person in post game chat how he pulled it off and they straight up admitted "High DPI". Blight is hard to get hits with in various situations. He needs a tiiiiny fix in my opinion. Not that it will stop people from feeling they need outside help to be good with the killer, but it would even the playing field a tad.
You nerf spirit and nurse. the game is 100% dead
They're the ONLY two killers that can deal with sweatsquads.
If you just want a game for survivors. nerf em. see what happens
Knowing when NOT to use a power is a key part of mastering it. Trying to down everything with Judgement for example makes you a terrible PH that's probably going to lose almost all of his chases against competent survivors. I've also seen loads of tricksters screw up really badly by sticking to knife-throwing when they really should be moving in closer and pressuring survivors out of a hiding spot.
I've even had a huntress whiff a hatchet on me when an M1 would've been an undeniable hit. It is critical to know when to use your power and when to just slap a survivor.
So no, good blights will not stick to using power only. Good blights will slap a survivor when the situation calls for it.
Once we nerf these two we can actually nerf survivor properly.
I don't think nurse needs a nerf, and I don't think Spirit can be fixed with a flat nerf. Spirit's issue is the lack of gameplay revolving her power. A spirit that can read auxiliary info is basically the same as having a killer permanently at, what, 150% speed?
Nurse, for comparison, still has to finesse her blinks and can be psyched out by survivors, and she incurs a heavy penalty for whiffing, which Spirit does not. So even if you DO make a spirit whiff her phasewalk, she's back on you in a second, while a Nurse might lose you altogether.
The game would be dead before you start nerfing survivors my guy.
Sad to tell the truth but i would walk away instantly, if that was the case.
Idc how many nerfs you'd give survivor at that point,
Calls unintended and confirmed by developers bug "fun" and "balanced"
Yeah, maybe vacuum pallets should've stayed too, because it was "fun" and "balanced" for survivors.
april fools was yesterday, pal.
How often do you see spirit and nurse? They are both fairly rare and a lot of people enjoy and do well as other killers
If you think this would kill the game I don’t know what to tell you
I see them more than Trickster
(Despite trickster still being new but we all know how he Really is,)
The ONLY killers i rarely see are Clown. billy. twins. Ghostie. mikey. Hag..
....Maybe blight and oni,
