I enjoy playing The Knight!
At first he was aggravating to the point of wanting to DC every match, but after I did the Adept challenge, started using good perks, and realized I can constantly have guards on the prowl, I really started to enjoy what he is. By no means is he a nurse, or blight as far as lethality, but you gotta give it to BHVR for coming up with something new. People compare Him to the Artist, but the semblance I see is chasing survivors out of a loop, that’s good thing I think. People complain that it’s just a straight line chase, then think outside of the box, use non meta perks, beast of prey for example, very unsuspecting perk. He’s a different killer, people complained they wanted something different, this is what different looks like.

Very fun to run into the Knight! The extra bloodthirsty goons in pursuit adds so much intensity I love it! :)

Well, I'm glad someone is enjoying him

Ikr! I think it’s so much fun on both sides

If you like Knight, try Artist. You will love her. More gameplay yet similar to Knight + strong kit and more skill plays.

It is so FUN having to try and get people to go towards a guard. Although I'm struggling with his adept. T.T

The adept was surprisingly easy ... against beginners.
Against decent players though, shift-W trumps all.

Maybe it is offtopic, but both as Knight and survivors I've never played on new map, also I've never met Knight as survivor.

I'm also one of the few people enjoying him, in fact for me is more fun than Wesker. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah, I ate crap for a few matches before running into a bad squad and getting the adept. Barring fundamental changes, not sure he'll ever be more than a challenge/daily killer selection for me. The design seems to indicate playing an unfun strat or just getting owned by good survs.

I do love artist as well, as a matter of fact there aren’t any killers I dislike. With the knight though, I tend to lean towards a trapper/Hag approach. I don’t try to land my summon directly on someone, but preset, and try to force them into it. That’s just one of many ways to enjoy his play style though. He’s fun

Well said, couldn’t agree more

He really does seem to need gen regression pretty badly. He can defend gens pretty well and every killer just benefits from CoB/Eruption but matches are definitely a lot easier with it.
I've been really enjoying him but he definitely seems to be very map dependent. Some maps just feel impossible while some feel like easy mode. I also think using the guards correctly is a big part of him. Here's the ones I've found.
Carnifex: Useful for harassing a survivor since the hunt is so long. Can also be used to break pallets pretty quickly which cycles well to the assassin.
Assassin: Seems to be the best in chase. The others just can't catch up when someone holds W but Assassin seems to be able to handle this better.
Jailer: Still haven't really figured out this one. Generally seems better to just use him to zone or just break a pallet to cycle back. The greater detection range is pretty good, but the longer patrol time really hurts when he doesn't aggro on to anything.
He definitely feels a lot better than the PTB. Although I kind of think the dried horsemeat addon (slightly longer hunts) should be basekit for assassin and jailer only.

I love his metallic clunking footsteps. Genuinely proper immersed when I play him. Hope they don't touch it.

I don't particularly like his abilities, so once I got Adept I switched that up for sure. Although, the stunning with a pallet one might be fun with certain killers.

I love "nowhere to hide".
