Unknowns Addon Nerfs Need To Be Reverted

I am very happy with the revert on his movement speed changes as it simply didn't make any sense.

However Blurry Photo combined with basekit they just added only adds up to be 30%. Where did our other 20% go?

VANISHING BOX:

I am fine with vanishing box having a down side to make clones take a bit longer to spawn, but omg 80% is just absolutely insane. You can barely keep more than 1 clone up because the survivors get rid of them now faster than you can place them. It adds 36s to an already 45s timer… taking well over a minute for a new clone feels horrible.

So horrible in fact that running the addon will now nerf you more than it benefits you. You are seriously better off without it now because of how bad the downside is.

    I don't think Unknown needed any changes. His kill rate is just right and he has some counters to his abilities.

    Hi,

    I dont play him and didnt get to play against him often. What Im curious about is your point about his clones. That is just a secondary, passive effect right? Isnt his main power the, I call it: canonball? I dont know him that well, just asking.

    Wow lets nerfs his best addons just because everyone uses them, this mentality from bhvr makes me sad honestly

    Vanishing Box needed the nerf, though 80% may have been too harsh. 50% might be more appropriate.

    As for Blurry Photo, they shouldn't add that power back into the addon, instead the basekit teleport recovery time should be reduced further. As it stands on the PTB, the basekit buff wasn't enough to make up for how much the addon was nerfed and it feels significantly worse to play compared to current live servers.
