Chucky needs his speed back

I don't know what the point of the 8.4.1 patch Chucky changes were, but unless it was cutting the pick rate in half, you didn't succeded. (There is still chance for the pick rate one though.)

If you wanted him to have better map mobility in exchange for compromised chase power (which it shouldn't be as he is a chase killer), you should have just increased him to be a 115 killer in addition to these changes. (Which he shouldn't be)

If you wanted to nerf him, you did it at the wrong place. His dash is what made him fun, decreasing it killed that. And if that wasn't enough, most survivors complain about Chucky being to powerful for his skill requirement (which I don't agree with, because while the skill floor is low, the skill ceiling isn't) which this doesn't solve, because against the same unskilled survivor, who didn't know how to counter him, Chucky will still get hit. It just makes plays agains good survivors, who already countered him most of the time, more annoying.

Btw at this point I'm starting to think that the amount of anger directed to Chucky by the survivors also has to do with his voice lines, as those can make an already annoyed survivor even more annoyed.

So long story short, this update was devastating for Chucky, and achieved nothing but made him less fun. This should be reverted FULLY as soon as possible. It's already a shame it wasn't in 8.4.2. And if it doesn't, he should be at least way more controlable (like increased max turn, turn rate, etc..) douring the dash in exchange.

    If they wanted this, then they failed and who made it needs to learn math. It simply didn't do anything in terms of mobility compare to previous version.

    If you wanted to nerf him, you did it at the wrong place.

    Like really, what else can they nerf at this point. He is 110% killer, his "stealth" is told to survivors and scamper is removed. Dash is kinda only thing they can nerf at this point.

    So long story short, this update was devastating for Chucky, and achieved nothing but made him less fun.

    It also made him lot worse…

    Funny they didn't even dare to do it in normal patch, where they would have to actually deal with feedback on PTB and give some reasoning for it in dev update.

    Amazing how big nerf they are willing to hide in bugfix patch.
