    Guide was always useful assuming you could consistently hit great skill checks (and maybe bring a friend or two who can do the same). The nicest change is going to be them having a bit more survivability and utility through the wiretap. Blast mine will be nice too. Gens regress quite quickly compared to 1v4, meaning that it is quite advantageous for the killers to kick generators.

    The legion changes will be nice too, even when you did escape 2v8 legion ended up feeling quite oppressive, after just a couple of hits they were so fast you can even camp the pallet against them because they would end up on the other side after a swing.

    What I'm looking forward to the most is play while you wait. I love 2v8 because I can play killer with a friend. I'm not opposed to playing survivor at all, the bloodpoints are nice and the playing against two killers usually brings some refreshing and different gameplay, assuming you don't load in against legion every single match. Play while you wait will go a long way towards helping queue times, which is probably the number 1 pain point for 2v8. Very excited to see it return.

    Legion will still be all powerful and Guide will be more useful

    Bsicaly legion gets less info (because more killer play with friend on coms so its huge info for other killer) and little less of frnzy time and guide is more fun like that gen combo from perks wire trap + blast mine and some small boost for gates thats it and I like the changes only thing Im missing is some nemi buffs he is the worst killer in 2v8 fast phaste and terrible with wesker in combination.

    Will say this again here.

    "I honestly can't believe they completely removed the gen rush capabilities of this class COMPLETELY.😁
    That crap of get hooked → unlock ability to get tokens → each token add 5% as soon as you touch a gen was immensely stupid."
