The Trickster Or the Jokester
Even after that "buff" he's still horrible, why can't we just balance out killers to be a substantial threat.
The thing that angers me most is why can't we hold his power charge? I have to lose it while im hooking survivors
Anyone else think he's almost worse now??? Also it was supposed to be a buff and he has 44 now instead of 60

. . . . . . .?????? Why are people saying the trickster sucks now when he still has MAJOR Priority over Vaults, pallets, and almost anything with his knives? Do people forget that they can just mind-game and throw them like it's nothing? Or am i missing something?

Main event is definitely still trash i agree. Chases can be shorter but he still doesn't feel too great. In fact i feel like just playing myers with save the best for last is better than playing trickster full stop.

Definitely not worse. He seems pretty damn oppressive in chases now, but he still has pretty much 0 map pressure.

No, I think he's definitely better, and I'm gonna be honest, I find Trapper and Myers way worse. Downing people with Trickster is incredibly easy most of the time. He's not the best, but I don't think he's anywhere near the worst anymore.

Did i miss something? when did the trickster get nerfed or was it just me who missed the memento...? Do people forget he can just throw his knives like it's nothing? I swear he had priority over Vaults, Pallets and most Loopers who think holding W or dead-harding will save them. I think he's pretty good NGL.

He has 16 less knives, main event requires 10 more knife hits, and it takes 5 seconds less for the meter to decay on survivor. It is not a flat out buff.

He's in a similar spot to Deathslinger. Strong in 1v1 but weak in 1v4. Main Event still needs some work, but I think it's unfair to call him a weak Killer against the average player. There are definitely times when he can feel oppressive.

Y'all should try playing him on a controller, definitely an awful experience to be had. I don't understand why the devs make killers that are just a pain to play on console even though we are literally the majority playerbase.

With Main Event I use the add ons to extend the duration of it so that I down a bunch of people when I finally use it. Some people have memorized how long Main Event lasts, and become increasingly bold thinking I’ll stop throwing during his cool down. Going for pick ups, saves, etc. Nope. He just keeps throwing, and throwing. He punishes everyone for being so cocky. 😂

Playing him on a controller is just literal pain

Trickster is not even close to being the worst killer. I think he is decent

If the stars align he has crazy down speed as long as you're on PC and are good at aiming projectile and tracking.
Otherwise he's still as bad as he used to be, some can argue he's worst since he has less total ammo and can't spam until he gets a down anymore...

They should remove the recoil on console. I can barely hit anyone….

Tricked you into playing as him... :D

He is definitely not worse than before.
The problem is he's slightly better at what he was doing good and almost same in why he was considered bad and worst killer.
He was hated a lot before fixing purple addons combo and still get hated a lot and some people say he is too strong.
I don't think he will get any other changes from now on.. Sadly.

Yeah i've noticed that too, he's not a good roaming killing whatsoever. What add ons do you guys bring? what perks help him best?

The buff gone wrong way. Even if he somehow gets 50% kill rate that only means he devastates survivors in the open and can't do anything with tall objects loops. 50% of the time, kills everytime

This is why i tire of ranged killers. You get some crazy oppressive weapon you can chuck over loops, but you move at the speed of a crippled war vet. Whats the point of even doing well at loops when i can't even make it to gens half the time.

Well yeah, they shouldn't have buffed his chase potential, they should have buffed his slowdown or map pressure somehow.
They are doing it right with Pinhead. Despite him needing maybe some small buffs, at least to his chase potential, he isn't as oppressive in chases, even if he gets buffed. But he comes with a second objective for survivors to complete.
He also has 115% movement speed, so not a perfect comparison, but the point here is that it's favorable to have killers that have some form of slowdown or map pressure, and not be as oppressive in chases.
I hope they will add some form of second objective to other killers that are still struggling as well, would be nice.

another great point, explaining why survivors are default stronger

You've never been looped to death by a wall sliding team, i can tell. OR not getting the real players of this game at low ranks

They should remove the recoil for everyone, it was easily the dumbest thing they did to him. A RNG factor in if your hits land on a killer meant to be aim based...

The way he throws knives combined with how chases and the maps are set up already put him at a disadvantage, ontop of being slow and ######### perks. When will he be good? They need to start by not having his power run out of full charge as a starter

The only way you would make trickster good is making him unfun I saw those 2 addons in action and it would really make me play it without proxy camp or msybe put knife damage to 4-5

"They made trickster better than nurse (they really did)" I will never forget this absolute joke of a statement a certain member of the DBD community made when he got buffed
Also
"Trickster is just easier, stronger huntress" - Another hilarious statement considering Huntress is one of the most popular killers and literally nobody plays trickster. Easier, maybe. Stronger? No way.

It's because unfortunately i don't believe they are low enough rank or play enough to face the actual sweat players who teach what perks suck and which don't

These statements came from DBD content creators
And I'm not talking lesser known ones, the quotes come from two of the most well known ones. Not looking to name/shame but you can look it up on YT and you'll see.

Big brain idea: Have the main event pause while carrying a survivor.
0 -
why even have it run out..it takes so long to even get it lol
0 -
Well the devs wish for it to be the spur of the moment type of special ult. At least they can meet in the middle with having the drain pause while carrying and picking up a survivor.

THE DEVS, also don't play this game at low ranks. Unless i see a video of it i doubt it. i think that's like a band aid fix for how he is rn. He's also just slow..that takes into account gen rushing and spur of the moment that are seemigly never in your favor. I agree tho that's like a hotfix
