Less knives on Trickster

I think trickster is way overpowered with the amount of knives he can throw and with the speed and he needs to be nerfed. If someone learns the throw completely there is no way to survive in the match due to his skill with SOOOOO MANY knives.

  • His knife amount already got nerfed, he'd barely a D tier Killer, pure skill issue

  • imo he should have less knifes but his main event should get buffed in return.

    I don't see a reason why you can miss 40 knifes but still down someone.

    Don't get me wrong i think he s a bad killer still and he should get buffs but i really don't like that he can just miss more knifes than i have seen in my entire life and still down someone...

  • trickster has 44 knifes. it takes 6 knifes (13.6% of his total knifes) to injure someone. huntress needs 1 hatchet (20% of total hatchets) to injure someone. considering that hitting 6 knifes with trickster is way harder than 1 hatchet with huntress, i think its pretty balanced

    He can't miss 40 knives, he'd only have 4 left, at which point he won't be able to down you anymore

  • His knives slow him down and you can loop him because of that. The trick is positioning yourself in an area that you know can help avoid his knives. If you compare his ratio of 6 knives to 1 hatchet, he has a similar amount of capacity to Huntress. Although I'd argue he has to reload more often than Huntress due to the difference in variety of his chases. The reason he can miss a few knives is because he needs 6 of then to remove a health state which is different from other killers. However, missing knives means he has to reload more often which slows him down from going immediately into another chase.

  • Trickster already received a nerf to his total knife count and it already made it much harder for him to take on multiple chases without having to reload.

    someone that finally understands math properly.

    huntress is also 5x more efficient at downing survivors compare trickster because trickster requires 12/44 knifes(27% of his total ammo count) in optimal time frame to down single survivor where as Huntress only requires single hatchet(M2->M1) combo to down a single individual survivor. This is all excluding both killer's ability to miss hatchets/knifes and just talking about their optimal play style in downing survivors.

    weakening his ammo count would make him run out of knifes before being able down a single survivor.

  • Agreed. Trickster should only have a knife carry capacity of 12. The GOOD tricksters will barely notice this minuscule change but all the knife spamming and missing GARBAGE tricksters will finally need to git gud or better yet play a REAL killer

  • Trickster kinda BLOWS CHUNKS as is IMO. I don't think he needs a buff. And if they did nerf his knife count, he'd have to get a huge buff elsewhere as he's already weak as is.

    44 + 4 + 8 = max amount of 56 blades, he needs to hit 12 to down someone, 6 for each health state

    56 - 12 = 44

    he can miss 44 blades :)
