Let's talk about the twins
Is there some sort of boost on them or something? I just had a game with them and Charlotte felt uncomfortably fast and victor was one hit downing without a struggle and I was just wondering if there's some sort of add-on or perk that makes it so?

Could be Devour Hope. After certain stacks, killer gains haste status after 2 tokens and then survivors are exposed at 3 tokens. At 5 tokens, killer can kill any survivor. There are add ons to boosts Victor speed, but not Charlotte's. The only way to boost hers is through a hex totem.
DH is gaining more popularity with Undying change. I just unlocked it from Hag so I'm working on a few fun sets with it.

Play with your food would also be something which makes Charlotte faster. I dont know if she would lose Stacks if Victor is used tho, since he ignores Perks. (Was thinking about using PWYF because I dont know what to run on Twins and so Charlotte would be a little bit faster)
Regarding Victor, Devour Hope does not work with Killer Powers, so he cannot oneshot with it.

Nah, I am quite confident about my size, I dont need Ruin/Undying.

Nah, I just said that I dont need it. I am good enough to win without it, but thank you for the suggestion. :)

There is no one hit down for Victor at all - if you are healthy you get latched even if exposed. If anything Charlotte is slow unless she has a haste effect from devour which is pretty brief.

You can win without it but red rank teams you will take to 1 Gen every time.

I consider myself somewhat of a Twins main.
If you're playing against genuinely good survivors on a bad map, Ruin/Undying will not save you. Chances are your perk combo will be gone very quickly.
That's why I recommend running perks that cannot be deactivated by survivors. Sloppy and Deerstalker are great perks for keeping up the slugging pressure.

What do you do when all that early game pressure is gone and the survivors have recovered?
With BBQ, Sloppy, and Deerstalker I have the potential to keep the pressure up all match.

Twins are definitely one of the weaker killers, that being said, victor is definitely taller than blight so you can low-key exclusively be victor and it's fun af. Especially if you constantly cough and say golem

You and I obviously play the Twins a lot differently.
I try and slug everyone with Victor. Sloppy helps keep people injured and Deerstalker allows me to track all the survivors I've slugged.
BBQ could probably be replaced with something like Thrilling Tremors or Infectious Fright, but I think it's a decent perk on the Twins (bonus bp is always a plus).

He Was one hiting without latch and she was zooming, it was almost at a ridiculous speed and didn't seem like Devor

Slugging with Victor is the only way you're going to win against decent survivors. Obviously, this can be challenging to accomplish because survivors have different play styles.
The key to success for the Twins is knowing when to slug as well as creating opportunities to slug. It's certainly tricky. I still have a lot to learn myself.
But the one thing I'm fairly certain about is you have to slug with Victor. Otherwise, you won't stand a chance against good survivors. That's why I use the build I do. Because it allows me to keep up the slugging pressure all game.

I don't usually park Victor next to a hooked survivor. I prefer leaving Charlotte near the hook and pressuring the rest of the map with Victor.
That's why I like using BBQ. The aura reading tells me what my next move should be.

I pressure with Victor because Victor is the sibling with 150% movement speed. The only way you'll be able to reliably injure/down survivors is by attacking with Victor. Any extra hits I can score with Charlotte are an added bonus.
One thing I will admit however is that my play style has very little room for error. Missing just one pounce can seriously hurt your momentum. That said, I still think it's the proper way to play Twins.

I wish Victor could look up higher with his pounce. It might feel fun to be able to actually go over things instead of just...straight.
0 -
Agreed. His pounce should be more like Demo's shred.

That's... weird. If Victor was one hit downing were the survivors already injured? If so then that's normal. Twins doesn't have an addon that allows Victor to one shot, but there is a pink addon that gives the Exposed effect to a survivor that crushes victor. I have a feeling that it's a hacker, sounds really suspicious.

I don't need to setup a 3 gen strat when I play Twins. I try and pressure with Victor as soon as I can. In my experience, survivors are either rushing gens or healing each other. With BBQ, I can prioritize who I go after.
For me, the strongest aspect of the Twins is Victor's movement speed. That's why I use Victor as much as I can to pressure the map.

And I won't invalidate your playstyle because I've honestly never tried it.
I think we can both agree the Twins have a lot going for them.

The twins are mechanically hard to play as well imo because landing pounces with Victor is not easy. At least for me :)
