If we're being honest with ourselves... Trickster needs a nerf.

Playing a lot as him recently, and i gotta be honest, i dunno if i just know how to play him right or if its because of the relatively recent rank reset, but i have consistently been WAY too accurate on shots.

Im consistently getting really weird luck shots, like REALLY lucky chase-ending shots off on some survivors, there needs to be some tweak to the hitboxes he can hit to make it like 5% more difficult to land hits or something.

I hear a lot about how trickster is one of those all survivors kinda hate for whatever reason, but like im consistently doing better than i think i should, and if he could just be scootched down a notch i think it would be for the best.

I have 700+ hours in the game, have been playing since it was free on epic. it honestly seems more likely that the devs just lied about it/changed it without telling anyone than it actually being true that rank means nothing.

when playing in ash/bronze, im constantly hit with new survivors that dont really have any coordination, that are generally mediocre players, and who i can usually easily sweep except for occasions where one just ragequits and i go a little easy on the rest as recompense for the disrespect.

when playing in gold/iri, im consistently hit with experienced survivors that have pristine map layout coordination, can loop excellently, and take advantage of the killers' weak spot, no matter who i play.

Generally, in my experience, on any given day of playing this game over a long period, it starts off with a game a little easier and tilted in my favor, and then adjusts the difficulty the more that i play. If im getting 2/3/4k's consistently, the difficulty increases in a very noticable way. If im struggling getting hooks or kills, the game will give me a clearly more forgiving match for a round or two, then amp it up back to normal.

What rank im in when playing this game affects this^ drastically, changing where the starting point is for difficulty, and how pressed it might be in giving me a forgiving match.

If this is no one elses experience, i might very well just have as much a unique experience in playing as my playstyle is unique. I always focus on being fair and forgiving, and maybe im just built different and get favorable matches cuz whatever algorithm likes my playstyle.

A concern that i do have however is whether i might be somehow accidentally smurfing? its happened before (with oni) where i end up consistently giving people a break because they seem new or they d/c and i just get caught in a loop of the game not recognizing the overbearing difference in skill because i go easy, and putting me in what it thinks are 'appropriate' matches?

if you have more thoughts put em down
