(Returning player) How is Vecna in his current state?
He's the only killer I've never seen in my games at all yet but he looks pretty interesting from watching some gameplay, so I'm thinking of picking him up.
What are your opinions on playing as and against him in his current state? Is he fun, difficult, stressful, strong?

he’s mid. He is just 2 killer powers but from wish lol
He has budget oni dash, artist crow, bloodfavor, and his orb is just an aura reveal. It really feels like they are running out of killer ideas fast, especially looking at Dracula (basically just spirit, wesker, and kinda huntress, but all mid).
He also has a 3% pick rate so don’t expect to ever see him

Not to mention the items that he spawns that essentially buffs survivors.

oh yeah he has his own chests that give survivors item that basically just show them when he’s using his power, and his special items allow survivors to go invisible and teleport cross map.

I enjoy going against him, he got some nice powers, not OP but good, the chests are fun too, maybe some should be nerfed but overall i like him

I think he's a lot of fun. His abilities can be poor man's versions of other killers, but their differences and the fact you can spam them all at the same time makes for some really interesting encounters. The Eye and Hand are also a great dynamic when they do show up. Overall, solid killer in my opinion. I'm glad the devs went for an out there licensed killer that was moreso tied to their specific interests.

Another returning player here - he just has too much going on in my opinion. Fundamentally he's not scary. I hate the cheesy voice lines and chests with random loot giving effects that could easily just be base kit.
I'm reserving judgment until I play against him more, but I have not had fun playing against him. Other new killers that I don't like playing against, like Chucky, at least have appealing atmosphere and aesthetics that improve the experience.

....JUST an aura reveal? Why, I'll have you know that Vecna does not merely reveal auras. He gets killer Instinct! That's so much cooler than any aura reveal!
Foolproof, guaranteed info is really nice for Killers

He’s a lot of fun and I’ve been maining him since he was released but takes a bit of getting used to, particularly his Flight of the Damned ranged attack, Dispelling Sphere is a useful scouting tool (And can prevent healing with an iridescent add-on that also makes the next add-on worse), Mage Hand gives you a decent anti-loop advantage (For a short window of time) and Fly gives you map mobility, helps you catch up to survivors you’ve just hit and also works really well if you use it with Friends 'til the End.
