The Trickster is annoying
This guy needs an immediate nerf, prior to his buff. It takes no brain to play him, spray and pray. Someone unhooking? Oh no problem not only will you down the saver but also down the unhooked survivor too. Also played at RPD, the map cucked us all (I was solo) on top of this annoying killer.

He needs a rework more than anything. His current state is pretty bad because he is very strong in a 1v1, but has 0 map pressure due to his movement speed.

All I'm hearing is salt.
I don't know why survivors unhook in front of a Trickster's face, that is precisely why lol

Do not post here if you are going for post count. You didn't watch the game, you didn't see anything.

Waaaaait, wait wait wait. You're claiming Trickster is OP on RCPD? That's one of the worst possible maps Trickster could get! It's huge, he's a 110, and there's constant LoS breaks you can use so that he wastes knives or has to stop throwing.
Really, that might be the single worst map Trickster could load into. He's not as screwed as Huntress, but he's still pretty screwed there. I'm not surprised your killer was camping hooks; that map is not built for Trickster to have actual chases.

Nerf? Not really. He's weak to high wall loops, which you can usually find reliably. It just takes a few good loopers to waste enough time to 4 man escape

You think this guy is OP? On RCPD? Ha! Try him out on Hawk-

Bro the knife nerf was already a huge hit to him. He was at his best with 60 knives and higher max fire rate.

jolt.

I don't have to see the game. You just told everyone what happened through your tone of salt so no one needs to see it.
Learn where he's weak and abuse it. I don't know what else you want to hear or people to tell you other than "Git Gud" since Trickster is so weak he doesn't need nerfs.
Anyway, that's my thought on it. If you still view it as "post count"... Ok booner.

Don't say that, that's the exact recipe for what happened to Deathslinger.
If you say that, BHVR is gonna take Trickster to the vet so he isn't so 'excitable' around the other dogs any more.

Being self-aware, I believe something's amiss. I think we could use a little kinship and inner healing in these troubled times.

No.
He's the worst of both worlds.
Weak and annoying to play against.
What he needs is a top down rework.

From someone who’s one of there favourite killers which is trickster he is bad no map pressure excellent 1v1 bad 4v1 he struggles in big maps also gaining distance and getting out of his sight makes him struggle even more when running forward 🤷🏻♂️

Well, I think survivor mains are annoying and you don't see me begging for nerfs.
0 -
No. He is finaly decent now. Make his power take longer to down people and you can put him back into trash tier. Also his main event is still bad because simply 30 seconds is not enough many times, it should not be timed based and if so it should be at least 60 seconds window to use it.
Nerfing a killer because he is annoying - just look at a Deathslinger... sorry I mean Deadslinger. No, thanks.
0 -
He might be annoying but he's not even that strong unlike Huntress or (Pre-nerf) Deathslinger.
Blame maps, loops where you go.
Otherwise, play him by yourself and experience chases with those who are good at not giving LoS as possible.
0 -
He really don't need a nerf. He is a pain on open ground but if you have jungle gyms and you know how to chase/loop him than it's ok i think.
0 -
Yeah I think Trickster is OK. I kinda wish we could save main event instead of it running completely out for no reason without a chance to even use it. I swear most of my main events go untouched unless I 99 it and wait for someone to get unhooked. I also feel like his movement speed could be buffed a bit during main event....
But of course, try running decent loops against Trickster and honestly even using Killer Shack if you have to. As with any strong ranged killer make sure you guys are doing gens together. Also keep in mind that Trickster is at his strongest when someone is unhooking a player, so time your saves carefully. If they're camping just find a gen because most people here are OK with such a tactile strategy in this game...

I will just agree that trickster is annoying as hell. He is the living embodiment of a loud smacking sound while eating in a silent dining room.
0 -
I personally don't mind going against him, but he's nowhere near OP lol, he's like top 6 worst Killers in the game. Also, he hasn't been buffed, he got nerfed. His 1v4, which was already non existant, got nerfed and his 1v1 also got nerfed due to him being 110 and laceration going away so quickly
0 -
Just stay out the way and do generators. also, just because they are annoying does not mean they need a nerf. Get better.
1 -
Awww you can't teabag anymore at the exit gate? Ridiculous. All I see is you being salty. You should get better. No gg ez for you.

I think Trickster is the most boring killer to play with. I do not get any satisfaction or excitement downing survivors with his knives. Maybe catching two bodies with main event is ok, but he’s mostly meh.
I do agree he is annoying to go against, and introduced one of the most annoying killer perks in the form of Starstruck. But he’s not popular. So best take your medicine when you vs. his annoying ass because he does add a little variety to the game when you run into him. And because he’s so boring to play with, a nerf would only drop his usage further into the toilet. Like someone said above, he needs a rework. Idk how, but something more fun- especially for the gamer using him.

Rpd is tricksters worst map by far. There are so few places where you can use your knives. Just run away and you will make a chase take minutes without even touching a pallet.
Sorry but this is very clearly mad cause bad
1 -
That would be our renewal.
0 -
Pleaseee this killer is far from annoying.
0 -
You need to make an animation of wiping knives after dealing damage with throwing knives, since he can kill you in 1 second

! WARNING WARNING YOU ARE A RED FLAG TO THE FORUM PEOPLE NOW !
Jokes aside, you will get bashed here for saying trickster is too strong. I 500% agree with you tho. I faced toxic tricksters in asia servers a lot so I get where you're coming from.
0 -
Nice arguments : “ you are just salty “.
dude please … purpose real thing
0 -
Purpose what? Trickster is at least decent at defending a hook, OP is demanding nerfs when he doesn't need them just because they got upset he was using what's he's decent with, camping or not.
0 -
Trickster is especially strong against survivors that are too altruistic. If you unhook while he's still in the area, he's going to be able to capitalize on it very easily. While I personally don't agree with the camping, it's just facts. There are multiple killers in fact that have kits that benefit from camping, such as Cannibal or Pyramid Head. Trickster just so happens to be one of those killers.
Despite this, I disagree that he needs a nerf. He's already on the weaker side, and right now he's the most balanced he's ever been.
Any Trickster player that sprays and prays is actually a good thing for survivors. Chances are he's only gonna have enough knives to last him one chase, and then he'll need to reload (depending on his add ons). This makes him especially easy to counter because of the time that takes to find and reload at a locker. Especially in large maps. You should be more afraid of the ones that know how to aim with him.
Lastly, RPD is one of Trickster's weakest maps. I would say his 2nd to most weak map. So using the map to support your argument doesn't make sense. I understand the fact that the map is confusing to navigate, but it's just as confusing for killers as it is for survivors unless you know the map from RE.
TL/DR: Don't be too altruistic against Trickster, he doesn't need a nerf, spray and pray is actually a good thing for survivors, RPD is weak for Trickster sooo...

Trickster aren’t op, he is pretty low on most on the tier list opinion … he is … oppressive and no skill so …. Many killer camp with this killer.
0 -
He's just annoying af and benefits from camping like a couple of other killers do. Still has a terrible 4v1 and is definitely a weak killer overall, so overall he's just a double negative as far as killers go. Annoying to play against and weak just leads to awful gameplay for both sides imo. Give him some map pressure, tone back his 1v1 accordingly and he'd already be on his way to being a great killer. The downside is there isn't really a way to do that without a ground up rework. So till he gets any sorts of changes, we're just gonna have to live with an uninteresting and annoying killer.

Unfortunately, toxic tunnels are not only in Asia
0 -
I mean yeah they exist everywhere but I've only ever tried 2 servers so I can't comment for others. In Australia servers, most people don't camp or play toxic and I respect them so much. But in asia, damn... I feel like a factory dumped 10 years worth of biohazard chemical waste in the server.
0 -
I understand your pain because I myself have to play there
Since ping decides a lot
It's a pity to realize that there is such a good server (Australia), apparently there are kind people
