Yes, you're the only one who thinks Trickster is op
ackchyually he has under 50% killrate so he should be buffed *snort*
He should get buffed regardless
You play against Trickster?? Haven't gone against one in months since he's pretty bad at high mmr
Trickster is kinda bad, you should play him and see that yourself
The one non-nurse killer sporting a less than 50% kill rate really needs to be nerfed.
You guys must not play as killer too often, getting kills as The Trickster is too easy since he got buffed, a nerf is needed, it's pretty skilless.
You’re bad at the game.
You mean nerfed? His 1v4 got removed from the game and his 1v1 got overall nerfed aswell
I find Trickster to be pretty fun but at the same time excruciatingly painful to play because as a Trickster main nothing becomes more glaringly obvious than his lack of pressure. Huntress can at least down you across the map, can Trickster? No he can't. Even in 1 v 1 where he shines the most, he still has trouble in good loops that outright cancel his ability.
How does this even warrant a nerf?
If you're having an easy time killing survivors as Trickster and it's not taking any skill on your part - I hesitate to make sweeping generalizations like this, but you're likely at a lower MMR.
Outside of a few maps where there's very little shelter against his power (Ormond, Rotten Fields, Shelter Woods, Eyrie), competent survivors will stall him for ages. He has very evident counterplay, and the situations he excels at are ones that smart survivors will avoid at all costs. Yeah, he can mow down a Meg running in a straight line faster than any other killer can, but you're going to find a lot less Megs running in straight lines as you move up the ladder. Instead you're going to find survivors that immediately break LoS, run to high wall loops, crouch, or start hugging rounded structures.
Trickster is a noob stomper. Like Wraith and Doctor, he excels at destroying newer players because he capitalizes on an element that new players either overrely on or haven't learned how not to do yet. However, he fares relatively poorly outside of that bracket. Once he faces survivors that know how to utilize cover, he's worse off than other ranged and even semi-ranged killers, because when windows are slim and you can only briefly get a shot around a corner, he needs to land 6 hits where everyone else only needs one (with the exception of Nemesis, but Nemesis is a 115 and has no trouble getting close and punching someone if they're running around a tricky structure.)
Let me clarify, survivors are generally way more OP than killers in this game (dead hard, decisive strike, burrowed time, etc) but Trickster is an easy killer to play as, at any rank. That's just my experience.
God while I will admit Trickster is a clown show of killer design. He doesn’t need nerfs he needs a rework
I think he should be removed from the game, but not because he is OP (He is terrible), but because he doesn't fit in the games aesthetic. He is literally a K pop music artist in a horror game. When he was first teased I thought it was an out of season April fools joke.
trickster depends of how many walls/obstacles there is in the map, the more there is the worst he feels, but if it's average, and you can be accurate and track their movement well, you can end chases quite fast, if you are experienced with him, he's not awful, if you aren't he is.
New account. Check
Killer complaint. Check
Yup, Bhvr is gonna nerf Trickster. I can just see it now.
He's the most balanced right now that he's ever been. If anything he needs his movement speed buffed to a 115% killer.
Trickster is a very black and white killer. Either you're going to get stomped on by him or he's going to be bullied. There's rarely ever any balanced gameplay with him. He's also pretty map reliant and has weak map pressure and gen control. If you've got a more open map he's going to dominate more, and if you have one with high structures and lots of corners, he's going to struggle. And I'd even argue that he takes the most skill, or I guess thought process, out of most killers. Why? Let me explain.
Even though I'm purely a Trickster one-trick on my account, sometimes my brother will play DBD and I'll play killer on his account just for fun as he watches me. I'm so accustomed to being "perfect" in judgement with Trickster that playing any other killer on his account feels like a breeze. Even when I play killers that are also considered weaker. This lets me know how difficult Trickster is to play in high MMR compared to other killers. He's just only strong enough to be able to perform well in high MMR in the right hands.
A lot of the problems Trickster has would be an easy fix with his 115% movement speed buff in my opinion and I've been a strong advocate for it since he's been released.
I just find him extremely irritating and worth taking the 5 minute penalty to avoid
He's not even close to being OP. But I agree, nerf him xd
me who just wants him to hold 60 knives again or revert the knife count addon nerfs
His original state was better than he currently is tbh. More knives, Laceration went by slower, good Add-ons etc
He's a pretty crappy killer, but the kill rate stats are irrelevant because there's too many differentiating factors that go into it.
By all means let's see you play trickster at high mmr and even get a single down.
Nice bait attempt
Wait which 1 vs 4 he had? He only had a mediocre 1v1 lol
Yea he really needs a nerf.
A good nerf would be his pants removed in game and out. That'd put him z tier.
i agree. Im a Ps4 Trickster and i cant blink when im chasing, because, i need so much focus with his knives. its terrible play as Trickster in consoles, you literally cant do anything about recoil control with analogic. i spend a lot of matches, time and was frustrating, but, and i still have around 50% accuracy for knives ( half knives i spend, i missed). I love Trickster, but how did you say, you need down so quickly and you need leave chase sometimes, because you dont catch anyone, like killer shack. I think Trickster should be reowrk, because, a lot of time he is not fun as or against him, and he is thw worst ever killer for consoles. He is very frustrating for control. But definitively he doesnt need a nerf
