Hey guys! Just wanted to remind you guys Trickster was the one of the worst things to ever come to DBD! With a gameplay style so painfully unfun for both sides he has brought absolutely nothing positive to the game except for the reminder that BHVR doesn't know how to balance their game.

On a serious note can Trickster please be reworked? Seriously, he is the most unhealthy Killer in the game, surpassing the likes of the Twins. Nothing about him is good.

    Yes. Have a working mouse button, don't get a map with a lot of high walls, and you'll down someone eventually. Ranged old Legion, that's basically what he is.

    If say Trickster brought a great trailer, teaser, and ptb music but then we never got official versions of any of them and now I'm sad again

    Not a great argument, imo. Any killer will down a survivor eventually, and pretty much every reworked map has high walls and obstacles. Trickster will only get an inevitable down if you're looping him somewhere where he can easily get knives in before they decay, or you're literally out in the open - both are losing situations to be in and ones that he SHOULD be strong in.

    Trickster has counterplay - quite a significant bit, actually. People comparing him to old Legion are seriously missing the mark because old Legion chases were a completely 100% guaranteed down with little effort or brainpower, and with literally nothing the survivor could do to not get downed. Trickster is not this in the slightest.

    He's not a well designed killer, but overpowered in a chase / boring and uncounterable he is most certainly not.

    This describes the situation perfectly. He has strengths and weaknesses you can take advantage of but is no fun to go against. He is not even a strong killer to begin and the buffs just made the whole situation worse.


    Rework Trickster
