Dracula Killer is unbalanced
I played about 20+ games against the new Killer Dracula. I find it too unbalanced and has an incredible amount of stuff compared to the other Killers.
- Quick transformation from Dracula to Wolf or Bats. For the transformation, I would add a Cooldown, because survivor can't adapt because of it.
- I would also add a Cooldown on the transformation from Wolf back to Dracula and an instanced flame summon. I happened to be chased by a Wolf and at the pallet I transformed into Dracula in a hundredth and after I dropped the pallet it immediately sent flames at me.
- I find it stupid for Dracula to have the Lightborn perk. It has always been known that Dracula is afraid of light, it would seem reasonable to remove the Lightborn perk from Dracula.
- I would limit the amount of time you can be a wolf. I'd put it at maybe 15-30 seconds.
- With fast movement as a wolf, it's pretty hard to avoid two jump attacks that killed me outright.
Personally I'm pretty annoyed with this killer, I haven't run off the map once yet because this killer is incredibly OP.

They really should allow all killers demo in custom with bots, so players don't have an excuse for lack of knowledge...

- He has cooldown and it isnt too short, in fact if you press a wrong button you will kinda crew yourself for a bit.
- But thats what makes him unique. His entite theme is about switching forms to adapt the situation. This is fine as is and adding cooldown would make him worse to play a lot.
- Lets not dive into logic grounds here, because how the hell you can blind Wesker (glasses), Pyramid Head (obviously), Demo, doll, etc.
- This sounds stupid, sorry.
- He moves same as regular killer and only gets small haste sometimes for a short duration. It isnt a big deal.

It's been one day since he released, and you already have a list of nerfs? I'm sorry, but people like you are the reason this game is getting boring. Everything has to be nerfed immediately.

I agree wholeheartedly with OP because I genuinely want to tear my hair out at the lack of counters this killer has. Dropped a pallet? Immediately flies over it in bat form. Want to blind him? No.
I can see him being the next skull merchant, every time we get him in a match we dc. I’m sick oh BHVR releasing the most unbalanced killers every release their is.

so people aren’t allowed to give constructive criticism?

Playing against a killer for a day and assuming you have the killer figured out enough to suggest nerfing them on day two is absurd. It's junk information.
It's less constructive criticism, and more premature complaining.

So long as nurse and blight exist no new killer will top them. Dracula does have lengthy cooldowns to switching forms. He cannot just switch to bat go over a window and switch to another form you are stuck in bat for a cooldown. His hellfire is 10x easier to dodge than aliens tail even though it comes out the same speed you can just watch his hand holding a fireball and know he intends to use it as soon as he has a line of fire or vaulting, so just fake the vault and fake running into line of fire, he misses every time or has to put the hellfire away with a long wait to scratch you. The wolf forms weakness are big loops and pallets he can only get you with it out in the open. Day 1 some players can loop him for 5 gens he is not impossible to beat or uncounterable, he is a clunkier version of several killers mixed into one that requires skill/aim/timing to hit anything. He is not the next nurse/blight please dont just get frustrated at learning how to play against him and immediately call for the nerf hammer

You can literally react to him flying over the pallet with bat and vault back before he can m1. If drac EVER gets a hit this way the survivor is just bad

I've had no issues of looping him or playing against him. he has counterplay don't just press W run straight. I enjoy playing against him and as him. he's not the strongest killer but he's fun and can turn into a cute doggo. Whats not to like.

on playing some more, I can still confidently say I do not like this killer to play against but I’ve found some ways to counter, however I am not a fan of the recent trend of killers being able to switch powers and have multiple different things going on because it’s a lot harder to find counters as a survivor when you don’t know what power is going to be used. Also from a killer pov, it’s messy on vecna, less so on drac but I still am not a fan. Will stay a twins main for now!

I’m not saying you’re wrong but this has happened with every killer since…before xeno?

i just find his utitily to be too big, he can teleport and move very fast while in tranformation mode also able to body block pallets. he can firestrike through vaults, he can double jump, he can be undetectable.

To be honest my main is xeno and i feel overpowered playing xeno, most people just dont stand a chance. When playing dracula however he is much harder to catch people with. Not unable to do anything but it certainly takes very good aim / timing and even experimentation to see if you can even hit people with the hellfire like sometimes i can get it to go through the edge of a wall etc. And the wolf form is like chucky but harder so you cant rely on it whenever theres a strong loop or pallet nearby. His bat form is fast but i dont feel like im flying across the map like wraith or anything and its more to reach higher/lower floors faster or find generators being worked on because people could just stand still you wouldnt even know and fly past them. Hes not the killer id pick if i needed win. Hes more like trapper level of strength as he either gets people that can loop both forms all day, or people that dont know the counters. (Which is probly why every dracula ive seen tripple tunnels and camps hooks to hit 2 people with hellfire all the time)

ive seen a lot of dracula snatching survivors at windows after bat transform. so i think the m1 is possible. or is it cheats devs?
