So I started using The Twins

Usually when I play killer I average about 2ks a match. Ever since I started using The Twins I've been getting nothing but 4ks and I've had survivors message me having no idea how to counter them. Do you guys think it's just because their pick rate is low and survivors have no idea what to do or they're overpowered?

    The Twins for me took a minute to get used to that playstyle but once I did man, they are a force to be reckoned with!

    My friend just started playing the game and his most hated killer is the Twins.

    Not sure if that really answers your question but thats my perspective.


    What build(s) you using? I'm currently using:

    A Nurse's Calling/BBQ/Oppression/Brutal Strength

    Awesome man. This is the build I'm using.

    Corrupt Intervention / Hex:Ruin / Discordance / Deadlock

    It's pretty nasty

    The Twins pretty much have a power that no other killer in the game has: the power to be in two places at once.

    They can be in two places. Also Victor cannot be dodged; the killer player just misses.

    Their snowball is amongst the best and if one or two players are killed before gens are done, the Twins can usually prevent the gates from being opened.

    Twins can be very strong - but prepare for the hate you will receive :-)

    The twins are good because they are literally 1 of 2 killers that can effectively camp while also simultaneously being somewhere else. The other being the hag. The twins are also vastly effective at mass slugging.

    Camping is an incredibly, enormously strong strategy and they are not as punished for it as the majority of killers.

    Presumably the reason people don't play them is because they don't like camping, or slugging. Or the fact that you get punished for using Victor's pounce well might also be a factor.

    I don't play the twins because charlotte is ######### ugly as sin, the first thing I did after unlocking her was buy the funeral veil so I wouldn't have to look at her face. And the only reason I DID unlock her was for hoarder on pinhead otherwise I probably would have been happy to carry on with her unbought and unplayed.

    Eh, I don't want to be pedantic but Hag and Nemesis also kind of have the ability to be in multiple places at once. Hag, Nemesis and even Artist in particular are also the only killers capable of chasing multiple different survivors at once, also, which Twins can't really do.

    They are very viable vs solo players. To play vs them you have to be coordinated with efficient healing, saving and gen repairing. If not then you have lost - which is most cases in solo queue.

    I think Twins do it better than Hag though. The hag has a maximum teleport range and her power is reactive, while the Twins is proactive. Also the Twins are 115/ way faster% movement speed while hag is 110.

    And the problem with Nemesis is that his zombies are braindead stupid.

    It's that people dont really know how to play against them. You wanna stay grouped up when victor is in control so if he does down someone you got that 5 second window to kick him. This then forces the twins to either leave where their main body is to force and come to you or they can do the game of constantly sending victor after you.

    They are noobs. They have no idea how to play against her because nobody is playing twins anymore.

    They're utterly destroyed by boon totems. It completely stops all their snowball potential unless the survivors are just bad players
