The Knight

I think the Knight needs a nerf, I have seen so many Knights on console recently and it has been really frustrating having the killer send the guard and also chase you at the same time, a lot of them also tend to slug which is no fun either.

    They actually need large buffs, bug fixes and quality of life changes.

    I think Knight should have a button that automatically breaks a pallet with his guards like how killers could do during the Anniversary Event.

    Also, no nerfs. Don't know what nerfs he could use frankly.

    Ehhh, it's kinda hard to tell. His power in chase is annoying, but it's level of power is on par with a lot of other killers. And as others have stated, the type of player that plays Knight (sluggers, campers etc) doesn't really matter. That's a player, not a killer. What he needs is his 3 gen capability limited. As Hens proved, his ability to hold a 3 gen is rivalled only by Skull Merchant. No killer should have the power to hold a game hostage with minimal effort. That's the only change I'd ask for, but as of right now I have no ideas on how to do that.

    How would you nerf them?

    The Knight needs to be deleted. The devs have come up with some original doozies this past year. The Knight and the Skull Merchant just need to be taken out behind the shed and put down. They are complete failures. Due to their unfun powers, no one likes playing against them. The devs just need to scrap them and try again, is all.

    The Knight is an awesome Killer that is fun when he isn't just used for 3 Gen games

    He needs buffs if anything, his Jailer needs to be faster and Map should be base kit
