Why is the knight even a thing
The knight is a boring easy mode killer that takes no thought or skill at all and in most situations has no counter play all around miserable to go against worse than nurse and she’s unbearable at times why was this even an idea

Yeah I’m not sure whose idea it was to make the Knight the way he is. It’s just so frustrating to go against.
19 -
i feel ya on that one it’s blight for me that’s only cause I see him so much half of my games are blight or wesker
3 -
Oh, what a night for a Knight. Can't stand that bum or his goons
4 -
You're comparing Knight...to NURSE?!?!
Nurse is broken. Knight is just obnoxious.

bhvr was on something when they fr went
"lets make 2 killers in a row that hinge entirely on zoning with 0 counterplay in chase, even though the game is built on conserving resources by staying in an area and countering the killers power with your own skill!"

Knight’s easily one of the most frustrating killers to play against. Nothing feels worse than feeling like you have zero option but to die. Trickster on an open map/loop feels the same.
7 -
So what you’re saying is that I should main Knight and Trickster when I buy a new computer and can play the game again!?!
8 -
I prefer facing Knight than Nurse, Blight, Hag, Skull Merchant and Ghostface honestly.
Yes, he is annoying, the Shack is almost useless against him and if you are zoned you're basically down, but Full W work against him in a lot of situations.

I love you too, Gann. 💜

Nah I’m just saying I have more fun going against the most broken killer in the game than the knight I wasn’t saying he’s better than her in anyway lol like let’s be real going against a nurse isn’t the best but it’s still better than knight

Nah bruh just leave the loop, just keep running, it's your fault if you zone yourself, the map is infinite and you can keep leaving a loop and reach the next bruh, this killer totally requires careful planning and strategy, you don't understand, the game was totally designed to be chased by two things at the same time /s
You zoned yourself bro, your fault /s
8 -
Hehe you’re awesome c:
2 -
a counter to his power exists so if survivors don’t use it then it’s on them. Do u just not help your teammates as well ? You just let them get zoned and downed and be like oh well it’s a knight nothing I can do
2 -
Trust me. This game currently is not built to conserve resources against most of the killer roster.
3 -
I get that most people don't like versing knight but this thread is just a bunch of incoherent ramblings after a lost game. Despite getting him to P100 I'm fully aware of the flaws of Knight's design.
You should point out those flaws constructively instead of creating a post solely to vent.

yeah thats fair ig, not like pallets do much against the higher tiers.

"boring easy mode killer"
Just the usual "I have on opinion on something I haven't tried" approach. You and all those agreeing with you never used and tried to win tough matches with the Knight. Not easy as you have to assume / expect where the survivors will end up in a chase. And patrols are coming back towards you.

The only issue I have with him is the detection of his guards feels really wonky and inconsistent.
Other than that I've played against him so much when he was popular that I've become desensitized to his design and can beat like 95% of knight players without issue.

Tip for any developer: if you think you're going to add a PVE component to one side of a PVP match, stop and don't do that. Thank you.

yes you know it’s so hard to hold m2 down at a loop rinse and repeat not saying knights won’t every game it’s just boring gameplay and holding forward is just a boring strat
0 -
That’s fun how ? The only fun thing about survivor is looping
1 -
trickster gonna do everything but win
just stick with the knight
0 -
Yeah but to be fair many killers power does the exact same thing.
artist place down a bird- sorry u can't loop here!
skull merchant place up a drone- sorry u can't loop here!
dredge put down a remnant- u most likely cant loop here
clown throw 2 to 3 bottles- u most likely can't loop here.
knight just another in the long list
8 -
I'm pretty sure you need quite the skill and thought put into him if you want to win with him, well I can understand your complaint if it's for 1v1 but that is just irrelevant anyway.

My goal is to inflict misery upon my opponents, not win.
1 -
This is why I enjoy playing the knight.
3 -
So you enjoy making survivors miserable?
4 -
Surv need to choose.
Do you want a killer that gen defends or more anti-loops?
If neither go play a different game.
Its honestly obnoxious about complaining about "Knight is boring and easy" or "SM brings 30 min games."
You guys got tired of anti-loop killers by DC'ing and boycotting against pinhead and saying Artist is op so plz unite and choose. Nobody wants to play M1 killers with plain powers 24/7
7 -
oh damn lol
2 -
Artist is on the same level as knight we don’t want anti loop we want chase powers the perfect killer in my opinion is wesker not a complicated boring hold w power or a 3 Gen power just things to help him in chase slow the survivors down
0 -
changing the subject the counter play is holding W are you reading what you’re writing holding W isn’t counter play when the killer is faster than you you are just running away and hoping you don’t get zoned that isn’t counter play

The only killers on that list that are fun to go against is clown and dredge at least with the dredge the remnant can be faked Artist knight and skull merchant suck the fun out of survivor
0 -
The dredge is super fun to go against for sure. clown ehhhh. i don't really mind knight myself but i can understand why most people hate him. like who wanna shift w the whole match? BORING
i think the knight would be more interesting if the banner was actually more reasonable to get in chase. of course that would make him much weaker but i feel he would be at least more engaging.
1 -
The most perfect killer in your opinion is Wesker then survivors whine about seeing him every game lol
5 -
Not because they hate him because they hate playing against him every game I’m never sick of a wesker I love looping him
0 -
I agree and the clown was just more of like yeah he’s alright not the worst to go against it’s not really fun gameplay but definitely not the worst my opinion is either his guards should not have down potential or a really big cool down if you want to set them on survivors I think guards should be just used for map pressure tbh
0 -
Thats my point they hate playing against Wesker every single match and then the next match is against a non Wesker killer like Blight or something then they complain again
5 -
Bro I’ve played since the Halloween release I have more fun running a nurse than the knight there is an actual counter break line of sight and do weird pathing and you should be good the knight is awful and boring the nurse actually requires skill so I can respect a good nurse
0 -
I could argue the same thing about Made For This but here we are

Not everyone wants to play zoom zoom killers. Its disorienting for some people.
Chase powers would just make every killer the same and would get boring hella fast.
Some killers like myself like to play methodical, slow, and practically evil killers. Its why killers like Skull Merchant fit my play style so well. But I can't enjoy her when I know for a solid fact that she's gonna get a fat nerf or rework soon and I have to constantly try to find a new killer to play.

Artist would be on the same level as knight if the crows started chasing you

This is exactly how I feel about survivor. The easiest, most boring, simple minded, thoughtless, skilless thing to play in all of gaming history. Yet people still take pride in their ability to play one, and complain about the other side. It's absolute insanity. Also, before you try and say it, I play mostly survivor.
1 -
Made for this isn’t a problem from someone who mains bubba as killer
2 -
Nah it’s not really when you play solo queue 4 man swf yes but solo is totally different in my opinion playing in a 4 man is stress free when solo is more stressful than any killer match I have ever played
0 -
Why not? Plenty of survs do it, my name is Jesus i won't be turning the other cheek.
Try Anna.
Holding W isn't a win against her, nor is throwing pallets, however hiding behind high objects can be.
She's a older killer so she won't be getting reworked.

Huntress is not a console friendly killer a lot like Trickster she requires flicking and tight button coordination.
If I wanted to mess up my joysticks and cause stick drift forever then I would but no she's not for me.
