The twins are absolutely incredible at camping

Being able to switch back and forth between the BABY / charlotte means no terror radius. The alert Victor provides (or the alert unhooking provides) allow you to switch back in time to catch survivors before they can get away, and the perks designed to counter camping (Borrowed Time) don't work because no terror radius.

In short, Devs, you create horrible things. this is really bad. one of your worst designs yet.


solution: Make the Baby LOUDER when he is not controlled by Charlotte. So we know he's around the hook, because his detection radius is larger than his sounds

Then, make him WAIL and WHINE FRANTICALLY (let t his be heard globally like Demo roars) like a Baby crying when he detects a Survivor. This stops when Killer Instinct does.

    Run urban evasion & crouch. Victor doesnt notify Charlotte if the player is crouched.

    Exact same mechanic as Hag traps and Executioner trails

    Crouching is the ultimate move! Also, if Victor pounces on you, Charlotte can't see you. I think it's a bug because I wake from my dormant state and see one flash before it stops, so I can never track down survivors who are injured.

    Victor only tracks survivors if they move or aren't crouching

    This wouldn't be the first killer that encourages lurking within 20M of the hook at all times. I mean, Hag exists.

    Yeah, and when he's on their head it doesn't show me their running location. They are definitely moving, since I go to the location and hear Victor and the survivor, but it usually takes coordination and understanding of the map to actually track a survivor with Victor--At least for me, they only came out a few days ago and I'm still learning.

    Definite camping pros.


    Biggest con to camping is losing pressure on the rest of the survivors, but that's barely a problem for the Twins.

    That's just the con of camping with any killer. That is, if you're facing a good team of solos (almost never happens) or a solid SWF (also, very rare). So usually just camping the ######### out of every hook will work pretty good. Most survivors don't wanna sit on gens all game, give you your one kill, and leave. That's pretty dull imo.

    It's not like they haven't broken everything else, though. My favorite two things about Victor (he said sarcastically are) that he can half charge spam his lunge, and lose no movement speed, but instantly nail a player the second he sees them. The other is that he can lunge at a locker and hit the survivor inside of it. If I add a third, it's that his killer instinct reveals survivors on the ground.
