imbalanced New killer Artist

Evgenyk27

Good afternoon dear developers, I would like to thank you for your efforts, and also to inform you about the unbearable imbalance of the new killer, it is impossible to run away and generally run away from her ability for 30 games in a row at different ranks of players managed to get a maximum of 3 2 generators from which no one escaped.She urgently needs to change her running speed 4.4 or somehow alter her ability.It's unrealistic to win a game against her no matter what you do.

After seeing some players complaining that The Artist doesn’t have a counteplay, I am convinced that these people have started playing DbD recently or they never evolved their survival skills. The Old Spirit with Stridor, Pyramid Head at his release, these were killers without any counterplay... Carmina is far from this status.

Playing with her and against her, I noticed some interesting things that can be used as a counterplay:

1. Run away from loops when possible. Carmina slows down while positioning her crows, this gives a opportunity to leave the loop.

2. Avoid map edges. Leaving loops is the strongest strategy,  but this is more complicated to do in map edges loops, so avoid these places, it is just as overwhelming as Pyramid Head and Huntress.

3. Remove crows immediately. I noticed that several survivors forget to repel, and this means that their auras will be shown constantly, making them easy targets for the Artist.

4. Be unpredictable if you aren’t in her line of sight. I noticed that after being attacked by crows at a long distance, some survivors just run in a straight line. This makes The Artist's prediction easier to get right. Performing random moves will make it harder for her to hit crows if she's not in line of sight (and this will only work if you're repelling them).

5. Destroy the crows if possible. The nerf came to be used by the survivors.

She's a killer who requires some intelligence to go against, not just running around pallets.

Body is 1 character too short.

@Evgenyk27 is it worse than Cenobite you mentioned earlier or even more unbearable and imbalanced?

Personally I tried Artist yesterday... and got crushed, not a single hook, as her power have unique learning curve.

Also I don't believe you already meeting her 30 times and losing all of that trials without learning anything about how to play against her.

Is anyone else surprised about this? im not, i knew people would imediatly jump to the nerf wagon day one.

Shes fine, shes strong but not overwhelmingly OP, she has a high learning curve and its kind of quirky. Shes strong, but not undefeatable, to me sounds like you simply dont know how to play againts her

Just repel asap, easy win...

She is way worse if survivors are good. Luckily they aren't. They rather create posts on forum to nerf decent killer...
