Trickster. The worst killer in the game.
So after spending the past day playing Trickster. He’s trash-
Cant keep chases
Cant get downs quick enough
Depips games like crazy
Is just painful to play as
The devs REALLy did a good job listening to the PTB players
Do not waste your money on this killer unless he gets a serious buff soon.

The depip confused me. Got a 3k in him, 11 hooks, and... depipped? Like, I dropped a million BP on him and got no good perks, no good addons, so I'm running him with an awful loadout. His power is pretty week. And now, he depips on a 3k?
The hell is going on with this Killer...

Using Knives to injure and down survivors awards no chaser so he has an even worse problem instant down killers like Leatherface suffer if they use their power to downs survivors.

Ya, it's brutal. I was seriously thinking of maining Trickster for the hell of it, and still might, but I'm losing rank like mad regardless of how well I do.

Been having the same. I had a good game. A rare one and had 3 kills. 10 hooks. But I guess cause the knives do nothing to help and I’d no gen pressure the game just said I was crap.

Ah you reckon? I'm survivor main and swear to god the whole throwing 60 knives in your face is an absolute joke 😂😂 proper over exaggerated on his power. However, he did try to tunnel me a few games back and the amount of times I got away, self healed and repeat on him was ridiculous. Managed to open the EG, came over did 20 laps round the mug and run straight out the door! ... just goes to show power doesn't over ride stamina. Shoulda left the chucking to the huntress....
Honestly can't put into any words how much I despise but love go happily take the absolute piss at the person using him as a killer. 🤣😂

I play both and I’ve had so many games like that as survivor.
Hes incapable of doing anything in a chase. His powers useless. He’s so slow.
Its a joke 😂

theres always going to be a worst killer. all killers could be good but theres always going to be the worst. there was a time when trapper was the best killer in the game. what im saying is, not all killers can be equal

That’s true but it also doesn’t help when a whole community knows how bad this killer is. How they spoke to devs on how to make him actually usable and they still put him out in this unplayable state 😂

We goin he to talk about how bad yun jin lee is? Her perks are absolutely terrible

He only excels at one thing sadly.. depip. It really dissapointing, they created so much hype from this chapter and deliver this. I just hope they don't abandon him and make proper changes in the upcoming days/weeks.
🤣

I got 3k and still depipped.
Had 0 in chaser.
Like ######### so I can't use his knives or I depip?
Well I can't m1 because he's too slow

Meh. I like Fast Track when I run "Gen Jocky" builds. Self Preservation is good if you are going stealth, but is difficult to really use effectively and consistently. They aren't terrible, but they aren't great.
Smash Hit is trash though. Especially with the weird Pallet hitboxes now.

Its impossible currently to get Adept if you use his power too much.
Not only because it is nearly impossible to 4k with it but, as you have stated, it does nothing for the Chaser emblem. Imagine not being able to use your power at all when trying to adept. 🤣
0 -
At least they can be used
0 -
All his power balance aside, they NEED to fix the Chaser emblem quickly.
Getting a 3k and BARELY safety pipping is ridiculous.

The amount of emojis here really pisses me off.

I just had 10 matches in a row I'm an awesome killer and I only got 3 sacrifices, I just f******g wasted 1 million blood points on this s**t killer he has no chase no pressure and his power is pointless I had survivors teabagging me to hit them it's pathetic!!!

Think he is terrible on PC, try a console. His powers and him as a Killer is absolute garbage. Cannot aim on console as well as you could with a mouse.
Now don't get me wrong, his design, cosmetics, and his special attitude is awesome. It's new, cool and fresh. But his powers and play against survivors are terrible. It takes 8 knives to hurt a person, which you have to throw 8 of them as fast as possible just to hurt a survivor. When on console, the aim on controller is every where!!! It takes time just to hurt a survivor, where as if have huntress, just throw are and hits, they are damaged. Throw like 10 knives and missed even 4, nothing even happens and the survivor possibly get away. It takes too much time and no special add on that can bring them down or show auras for a long period of time or anything of the sort. Just overall takes too long to even hurt a survivor and as a killer, time is something that we cannot afford.

Not a single survivor said that he hate new killer. It's a bad sign. It means killer is really weak. It's not even a noob stomper.
Does someone remember Ghostface on PTB? He was sooo awful and got buffed to normal tier right on release. I wonder why devs give so much time to trickster. It's so obvious that he need to be buffed hard.

His power is so trash I had survivor's purposely getting chase and not even trying that hard to dodge and after hitting them with what felt like 30 blades they finally went down twice the entire game.... The lack of accuracy is also a joke and he's literally the worst ranged killer by far. It feels like you're just yelling mean things to them until they finally collapse due to personal self esteem issues 😆 "sticks and stones may break my bones but daggers can never hurt me " lol
