Why bother?

So sick of playing against the Knight, definitely needs a huge nerf, I'd go so far as to say a rework of their power/ability. Why bother playing a killer than can dominate the entire map while taking it easy?

    He falls into the same category as Trickster. Not the strongest, but awful to play against, and sometimes you have zero counterplay and just die.

    He definitely doesn't need nerfs, he's very weak. Some QoL and skill ceiling raise he could very much use though.

    I really wish they'd increase guard speed based on the proximity of guard placement to survivors (would need minimum travel distance to prevent insta drops of course). This would raise his skill ceiling by trying to guage survivor location by hearing. Almost like playing Spirit tbh.

    He also needs CtA and MotR base kit. They're essentially always autolocks. Most his addons are like really, really bad too. As well as a few bugs still persisting that nerfs him substantially and have still existed since his release.

    Knight didn't need any nerfs you'll know if you played him. He's already crippling to play with all his bugs. He really needs QoL changes and bug fixing.

    Play Knight yourself of think he's that good 😅 He ain't.

    The only nerf Knight needs is being forced to wear less armor for .. reasons.


    Otherwise he's not very different than other M2 on a loop killers, sure it's boring to play against, but not really that strong if you have good pathing.

    I only play survivor as little as I have to but it has been a while since I've gone up against a knight. There are so many killers now that you shouldn't be matched up with them so often that it should be a big issue. My most hated killer to go against is the Doctor so I can't say I'm too happy to see him get buffed. But like I said, I can suck it up in the 2-3% of the games I play as survivor when I come across him.
