    Chucky = nerf for sure

    Mastermind = nerf egg and unicorn and buff something for basekit (They nerfed the 2 best addons for unknown because everyone used them, so I think the same thing will happen with the mastermind)

    Lich = I legit don’t know

    Ghostface = buff

    Hmm I love vecna going against and playing as him, shame he so rare yet i find his kit balanced.

    Wesker I hope its buffs as personally I feel he is weak now and I barely if ever now face any as survivor.

    Chucky yeah I want that annoying free hits runt gutted and honestly

    Gf needs a fix to his reveal for years now, so sick of looking at him and still get expose, it seem it only work to reveal him fine when he is not looking at you or is looking at someone else.

    But to ask are these really the 4 other killers or are you predicting its those 4?

    Ghost Face will match Shape changes since both Stalk.

    I really hope they don't just randomly nerf Wesker's most-used add-ons like they did with Unknown and instead are focusing on something like input parity.

    That's like saying Bubba will match Billy because they both use a chainsaw.

    why would they nerf egg? lol I don’t think Wesker needs any nerfs. I think you should gain speed for multiple survivors being infected

    But they don't use a chainsaw remotely similar to each other. Same way Myers and Ghostface stalk mechanics are completely different.

    Chucky is most certainly getting nerfed.

    Wesker I hope he'll get a nerf and a severe one at that.

    Vecna I genuinely have no idea what they will do.

    Ghostface… hopefully his reveal mechanic gets fixed.

    unknown add ons are pretty strong I honestly think Unknown has passed Wesker awhile ago when they nerfed his tunneling potential.

    SInceSthese four got confirmed by the developers:

    Chucky: Yes, this killer needs a nerf. I hope they will rework Poison Rat Addon and increase the cooldown of his scamper - to 15sec and rework the PoisonRat Addon into a "reduce the cooldown" Addon. However, as an exchange it would be cool if they bring back scamper windows because this was never the issue - it was always the Pallet scamper that put survivors in a lose-lose situation. Bringing back the 180flick would also be cool because these two changes would give him a good skill ceiling. And of cause, fixing the bugs that make him unintentionally stronger.

    Wesker: since his nerf, Wesker is in my opinion a perfectly balanced killer. I can imagine that the developers will make Egg and Unicorn Addon half basekit because they are really common ones. I really don't know what nerf he would deserve or needed.

    Lich: Happy to see him on the list. However, I am afraid the developers will nerf him due to his high killrate even though this is more the fault of the survivors. He needs rather buff by reducing the spell cooldowns and some Addon tweaks/reworks. Otherwise, he is in a good spot. Of cause, fixing bugs would be amazing.

    Ghostface: The developers seem to love Ghostface and the community loves him too. However, he is a weak killer so I think we will get some buffs. Even though he is in the list for tweaks, I hope he gets something bigger to his basekit that gives him some antiloop power. It feels so pathetic when survivors drop pallets on you, or you have to brut force a pallet because you are so weak and the best you can do is to break the Pallet. This is so boring and gives no interaction for both sides.

    He really wasn't and he still isn't. The linger hitbox lasts for way too long and teleports can situationally be very unfair, especially when your teammates don't bother dispelling them (which, in this case, isn't really an Unknown issue, granted).
