Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Rework Victor (Twins)

Victor is the most anti-fun killer mechanic in this game. Yes, even worse than a Ghoul or a good Nurse.

Victor is a free hit every time against a killer who can aim half-way decently.

Yes, I know you can go in lockers and counter Victor that way, but it doesn't work out perfectly every time. The little monster just rides right up to your butt and gets a free pounce with literally no skill at all. Going for snipes is cool and shows a killer's skill. But all 90% of Twins players do is ride your butt with Victor to guarantee a free hit, then slug everyone out all match.

Change the way Victor works for the love of the Entity. IT'S NOT FUN.

    Twins are probably rarest thing in dbd, victor is strong but good counter is some healing speed perk or we are gonna live forever plus be in pairs, play in pairs so if you are injured your teammate can kick him if you are downed and pick you up before scharlote can come and pick you up this works if she isnt close. Teins are rare and maybe they will need big rework or changes in future after devs do they famos antislugging changes because like oni their power is all around slugging ( I hope devs wont forget about that and react fast but that isnt their strongest side like buffing weak killers so there isnt huge gap between them like blight and ghostface). Still twins are in top 5 strongest killers and only thing that can put them down are antislugging changes or strong healing meta like old og boon circle of healing.

    Victor is fun to kick and easy to loop. Its your opinion so sure, but most of us hate ghoul, blight and nurse.

    u can literally do the gens with vector in your back, and u also make twins an m1 killer for a period of time before charlotte can recall him

    how many twins are u exactly facing lol, even i a twins main barely play them anymore because i don't like getting softlocked or getting a nope from bhvr while trying to pounce

    Poor argument tbqh. Low pickrate should never be used as an argument to defend the existence of blatantly overtuned characters in video games.

    You can’t heal or do generators with Victor on your back. The incapacitated effect I thought prevents that.

    I blows my mind that people will vehemently defend a non-fun killer (boring to face AND to play), in the name of defending their killer vs survivor mindset. Always gotta make sure you rep your killer side no matter what the complaint is, right?

    I don’t care how little the killer is encountered, the killer is not fun to go against. And obviously, since they are so not very often played, they are not fun to play either. Nobody really wants to play a killer with minimal skill expression that pretty much guarantees a free win because all the survivors give up. It’s boring after so many games. The Twins is fundamentally flawed in design (Victor mostly), and they’re too scared to change them because the last rework was so terrible it was completely reverted.
