New "killer" final straw

the game was getting irritating as it is , Spirit with strider is just 0 fun to against and a complete gamble if you can avoid them

Hag's entire playstyle is just awful, encourages camping and crouching around the map


gun slinger with monitor and abuse making him able to be ontop of you before you can do anything

and now this ...

it's not clever, it's not interesting it's just beyond irritating being chased round the map by something that looks like it's out of a gameboy game .... it's an absolutely awful mechanic and I honestly have no redeeming features to it. Do you even get chase points from it because i don't think you do ?

Add that to the 10+ minute wait times to games to just get killed on first hooks because of the awful match making then yeah ... uninstall

    Spirit having Stridor is perfectly balanced. People should stop using that glorified sound bug called Iron Will to cheat their way out of chases because they're scared to loop a 110 killer.

    Hag, I can't argue with. She sucks to go against. Literal ranged camping as a killer power. Why isn't she locked out of placing a trap until she's a certain distance away from the hook, like The Twins?

    Deathslinger's low terror radius can simply be countered by Spine Chill, and his chases countered by not giving him LoS and moving left and right. He can't pressure the gens unless you're giving him really easy chases.

    The Twins are the funnest killer to go against right now. You can kill Victor, even when he lands a successful hit. You have to keep in mind where Victor and Charlotte are, which is way more manageable than keeping track of Hag and Trapper traps.

    The Twins are definitely one of the most interesting killers that the devs have released in a while. Victor is really easy to deal with if he whiffs even one lunge, it takes all of 1 seconds to kick him in the jaw and take him out. And if you know he's idle nearby, just take your finger off of shift for a few seconds. Just admit you're salty you lost a couple matches and don't just throw out statements with no thought behind them.

    Spirit with stridor - Not sure how this is balanced in any way, survivors use iron will because it is one of the few perks that are meta and effective. Same goes for killer. You can't loop a spirit who knows what they are doing that much. There is no counter to a good spirit, bad spirits are the reason people think she has counter play.

    I wanna see a debate between this guy and one of the people complain how weak the new killer is.


    But if you're having trouble with suvivor I would say maybe try killer for a bit? Change it up, maybe you're just tired. Or play something else for a week. Try Stardew Valley or something.

    Yes! 'Small Game' is one I run. It detects traps and totems. Very nifty.

    Sure he's easy to deal with if he whiffs (...obviously?), But when his lunge hitbox is the size of several continents, you're not gonna see anyone whiff once they play him for a while. There's also no mindgaming to it either, you can't mindgame a 150% speed killer with no red stain and a near-instant lunge attack that can also jump over half the things in the game.
