New Trickster is just a pro camper
Now you don’t even have to be at the hook, you can injure/down both people while they’re locked in the animation from a distance, really well thought out buff once again by BHVR!
Seriously, every buff they do is just lazy, trickster needed changed from the ground up, and they’ve just made him yet another unbearable killer to play against who isn’t even that great. Did we really need another Deathslinger? Every loop is just ‘oh he can hit you over so you’re down’, or ‘the wall is too high so you can loop it 50 times’, absolute joke of a killer.
I’d much rather see him never played than this, but BHVR is incapable these days of making a killer that’s fun for both sides. I hate everything about the current trickster, especially that he can continue throwing knives at you whilst your in the post injure speed boost, just awful awful design.
Can’t wait for a week of everyone playing him, it’ll be hell just like Nemesis’ release was. Zzzzzzz
Lifeless dlc after lifeless dlc, honestly want a sequel at this point to shake things up

Most ranged killers easily can

Trickster needs cheap tactics because he is so bad killer in game. Even with buffs, he is still joke. He can not win without camp or tunnel.
I saw some really good Tricksters, they played so well but still half of team escaped. This explain everything about Trickster. This was mistake, he never would join game.

He’s terrible, not sure why we needed another range killer

Trickster doesn’t have any cooldown like them though

I am not fan of him. He is so bad design kiiler. And people can not win without tunnel or camp because he is really so bad at 4 v 1. And he is not great at 1 v 1. He does not need buffs, he needs rework.

The best part is the bloodhunt is shortly after the mid-chapter. Tricksters are gonna be everywhere. I suggest not touching survivor gameplay for a while rofl.

Well, Trickster's 1v1 is actually really good. He can down any survivor with relative ease and the upcoming buffs will make his 1v1 even stronger.
Trickster's 4v1 sucks because he's slow and he has to reload at lockers. This is the main reason why Tricksters can still be defeated by decent teams.

If i can run Trickster for a minute, how he is good at 1 v 1? And i am talking for red ranks. And i am not even good at survivor, i am killer main.

He'll still get destroyed by high wall loops, big maps and any decent Survivor with Sprint burst/Lithe/Balanced landing. They didn't address his actual weaknesses.

I prefer to face a Trickster instead of a Huntress.
Huntress hitboxes are the real tragedy, and no you cant loop a Huntress either, unless the Huntress player is bad, otherwise nothing can be done against her house like hitboxes, I almost vomit each time facing Huntress she needs no aim, at least Slinger has a needle aim even Trickster is more fair, Huntress is just archaic and annoying

I personally think that all ranged attacks are annoying in dbd. I mean why not just give ghostface a gun like the movies and call it a day (max sarcasm limit reached)

I'm apparently in the minority here, but like the person above me I would rather face Trickster than Huntress.
I just think his daggers are fun to dodge.

I'm interested if his PTB version will go live.If yes,then i would probably not touch survivor for at least a week 👁👄👁
Why can't BHVR release more killer that can deal with the 1vs4?
I hate the trend of them adding killers that are oppressive in the 1vs1 but struggle in the 1vs4
2 -
Well, think about it; Survivors would RIOT.
You have a Killer strong in the 1V4, then he makes it a 1v3, then 1v2, and then 1v1. As the numbers shrink, he gets stronger and stronger because he's meant to counter 4 Survivors at the same time.
Survivors would play one match, then scream onto the forums demanding he be nerfed into the ground because he's 'OP' and 'Unfun' and 'Uncounterable'.

The worst killer in the game became the most op and unfair killer in the game all of a sudden
If he needed rework why did everyone ask for buffs?
2 -
Because you can't have both.
Killers that excel in both 1v1 and 1v4 are seen as problematic. Killers that excel in the 1v4 complain about survivors being too strong. Killers that excel in the 1v1 are complained about because the chase didn't meet the survivors standards.

Oh, baby, all my cakes on the Trick are ready for that bloodhunt. I have actually been holding off on playing him just in anticipation for this buff.
0 -
Trickster is bad at 1v1. He is only good if he manages to catch you in a wide open area with no cover. Otherwise he is easily one of the weakest killers in the game.
2 -
Even if they would do that, you still have to convince BHVR not to make garbage maps where a bunch of killers don't function.
Like bro they just keep bullying poor Billy with maps where he's useless.
0 -
Same but they will ignore the part were huntress can make looping useless since most windows and pallets are hits for her. But in all seriousness I doubt they will keep him in his latest ptb trail, since he was oppressive in the open without any cover. And that is the one thing he succeeds in over any other ranged killer, out in the open.

But they didn't get the license to Scream 😭

Yeah sadly they did not

Being slightly better than others at camping doesn't exactly change the fact that Huntress, Hag and Deathslinger very much so exist and are very much so ranged campers.
That's literally the Huntress play, they stay in sight of the hook every time.
