Does anybody else really hate the Trickster rework?
I have been playing trickster a lot since he first dropped, and the most recent rework is the only time I have seriously considered permanently dropping him and not coming back.
He just in general feels so much worse to play, he feels so insanely sluggish and like you need to do absurdly more work for the same effect as before. It feels like he was given 1 or 2 decent buffs but it is joined by so many nerfs that I honestly don't see the point. Even the rounds I am winning feel like I am not having any fun in doing so. I keep thinking if I keep giving him time I will get used to it and then it will come back to me but- that is honestly not the case.
I really hate how he feels. I think I hate him now, which makes me really sad because according to the stats he is like my first or second most played killer.

Well I for my part have really fun with him, that being said I'm not a trickster main.
I started playing him more since the rework now and he feels pretty good for me, I'm also a huge off his sounds (I've red somewhere that his rank up sounds like you win in lotto, it's just too funny for me xD) except the sound I also like the idea of ranking up to get stronger with him.
I also admit that highwalls and stones are basically your death, but it's the same with huntress and deathslinger so nothing new for me (I played huntress more than anything else) :D

He is more weak, not fluid and he feels so much slow than any other killer in this game now. Everything he propose to do he feels slow. Im a Trickster main and im so sad.. He simple doesnt work on 4.4. He has less knifes, less main event, he feels slow. The style rank sounds are so irritate and loud and the recharge animation is very bad. The old 4.6 version and the early versions of him ( around 2023) was so much better. Im so sad.

It's the addons for me, I feel like the lower grade ones don't really help much at all.
I like Bracer and shoes a lot, but shoes not giving lasting movement speed between multiple aims is annoying, I think the buff is just lost after letting go the first time.
Otherwise I think they are good, I've really been enjoying not needing as many hits.1 -
You're not alone, I have played him before his first rework, after the rework, and now this version.
Your right with the sluggishness.
In exchange for giving him lethality with 6 blade injures and a flashy new UI, they crippled everything else, movement speed, throwing speed, decay timer, hit registration(for me blades hit but I don't get laceration stacks), and more have all gone down the toilet. I believe if he were 4.6 these problems wouldn't be as prominent but the speed nerf combined with everything else just feels really bad.
I am actually considering dropping him as he just doesn't feel good now. I will play much less of him in any case with these atrocious balancing changes.

he's a 110 killer that can slow down even more by using your power he is sluggish

I dont understand why they slowed him in movement speed when he holds knifes when his base speed got nerfed to 4,4 m/s like he inujures by 6 knifes but he is snail and on maps like tricksters delusion you dont stand a chance if survivor runs those indoor parts with windows before you can have los on that survivor and pull knife he is behind corner which is very bad.
Main event cant be used near hooks like I would get it if that distance wouldnt be that big like 6-10 meters but 20 someone took good stuf when he was making this change that almost his whole terror radius after changes thats a lot of distance not to mention it works in endgame where killer shouldnt be punished by using his power near hooks thats why anticamp meter turns off, what a mess from balance team.
Last thing thats second most irritating after his snail like speed are knifes/ammo like whys the hell when you slow him down a lot than decrease his ammo, I get he injures faster but he is slower which is more impactfull and has less shots?
Either make him faster when holding and throwing knifes and increase ammo or make him 115 speed, not mentioningmain event that thing is less used on him than his basekit mori.
But the biggest crime in this patch isnt trickster but wesker who got butchered again by some changes and urobending doesnt work so yeah "I think we did pretty good job" this line saddly fits here which is shame.
Edit: forget laceration dissapears faster too which on snail like character makes sence I guess.

I agree, I do not play the trickster but playing against them now feels like playing against The Huntress with less skill factor (and on the contrary much more counterplay) rather than the Trickster…

Trickster feels so much worse even his mains agree that 4.4 made him much more worse and punishing now especially with how fast laceration decay is now
