Im trying to play some games with the and end up completely destroyed after patch. Do they suck so bad or they're fine?

    It didn't make a big impact on how strong they are really, the main problem is that they just feel worse to play

    honestly you'd be surprised at how many people just decide to not kick Victor after you down someone so you pretty much just lose 2 extra seconds chasing them than before, and considering how fast Victor is, that really doesn't make a big difference

    Twins mains? What are you talking about? 🙂

    It's another one of these nerfs that doesn't actually change anything in terms of the killer's strength when it comes to mains using them, but just makes them feel more annoying to use.

    Same as they did with Nurse. They aren't weaker but feel clunkier to play.

    The extra stun is unnecessary, if they really wanted to nerf Twins (for some reason) they could've done it differently.

    They feel awful to play, but against solos they haven't changed in strength all that much. Solos still don't bother to kick Victor after he downs someone and just run away from him. Of course, groups now have an even easier time countering him, but they already had an easy time countering him in the first place. Terrible change, should've focused on nerfing Victor's recharge time and camping ability instead of making him even less efficient to use without any counter buffs.

    And no, the camera movement "buff" isn't a buff, that was in the game for literally months before this patch. However, nobody plays Twins so no-one noticed.

    It does not seem to effect the mains but for the casual users like myself it made them horrible. I just can't and won't use them anymore and it's a shame I enjoyed running around with vik. I had a terrible time last night was first time trying since change and will be last. I was getting kicked regardless of hits or misses. Could never get any pressure they get 10 years to kick you. they just have a bad feeling to them now just sucks for any killer to have this.

    It of course did give them a significant nerf but they are still strong. The biggest issue with the nerf is it just makes them feel terrible and clunky to play. There was already hardly anyone playing The Twins at all and now they just killed off a couple of those. It really feels like they just don't want people to play them at all. The nerf was just completely unnecessary. As people have already pointed out, because there's so few people that actually play The Twins they're never gonna get much pushback on these changes so it's probably never gonna change and the Twins will be more forgotten. That said, did you see how much upvotes the posts in the PTB Feedback page got about telling the devs how terrible this change was? It was a lot, and still ignored.

    What they needed was to fix the camping and taking Victor hostage. Slugging was not the issue.

    Not a Twins main, but I've played Twins a ######### ton right next to Blight.

    They feel ######### awful. Very clunky, very slow. The bad thing is is that they've ALWAYS feel slow and clunky, and this makes it even worse. I don't know what they were thinking.
