Fix or revert Knight

Please fix Knight, BHVR. Revert him if you have to. He's so incredibly unfun to play as now. How much more feedback is needed? There are so many posts about how much worse Knight is after his "rework" and pretty much all of them are bashing the overall quality of gameplay after the changes.

Every time I've played him post-rework has been not fun. Even with a long range guard snipe, it rarely translates to a hit. His macro gameplay is gone and using jailor makes Knight play as an M1 killer for 30+ seconds while 2 others are doing gens. Missing a guard is incredibly punishing and as it stands the risk to reward ratio is way too high. One missed hunt attempt kills any momentum. The 10m start is fine, but if you miss it Knight is completely #########. Not only does it take a couple seconds to lay down the path but then it takes more time to catch up to where the survive has just ran off to, not accounting for the complete powerlessness that follows if you missed them with the hunt. This was fine on the PTB because you could just summon another guard to continue the chase.

It was so satisfying on the PTB to have a long range Jailor snipe on a gen and pursue a second target with the ability to use another guard immediately when the time called for it.

I'm not going to reiterate everything people have suggested to fix him because that's been said by so many people by now and I agree with them. Knight needs changes ASAP because as it stands he isn't a killer anymore. He's a babysitter to give survivors free wins.

    he only needs cooldown buff. If they care about 0.1% survivor gameplay, they should also fix all these AI bugs and exploits. They're almost as bad Pinhead's chain ability where you hit the survivor and you get no reward.

    I like playing knight. It is just his drawbacks feels bad.
