The ghoul...

I've played as a ghoul yesterday and 2 people instantly DCed and other 2 just stood still. Just because it was a ghoul.

Will he be ever changed? People do refure to play against him.

    That's because survs hate mobility killers despite the fact that ghoul is weaker than blight. His ingame reputation is far from the real thing

    Survivors successfully used this tactic to gut Skull Merchant, Ghoul is the current target.

    I usually don't dc against any killer but I feel hopeless playing against Ghoul. I like the idea of his power but the bite is simply bad. They made it "better" and I'm still getting hits through walls. I wish his animations were clearer and he had new or better audio queues when he is using or cancelling his power so survivors can have an idea of what to do. I try to play the best against Kaneki but it's just not fun at all…

    Ghoul is a way to easy S-Tier killer he gets 200% reward for 50% the effort an average killer puts in cause he has all the mechanics that easily counter everything.

    Auto aim first hit injure? He's got it

    High mobility and short cooldowns? He's got it

    Fast Scamper to counter Vaults and Pallets and apply a 50% hinder to the Survivor? He's got it

    I'm not surprised he's the most hated killer Tbh I know the Devs won't rework him anytime soon so the best thing they can do immediately is nerf the numbers on him.

    What’s also really dumb is that Ghoul can injure survivors…apply Deep Wound…through floors.

    For example, on Dead Dawg Saloon he can literally put a survivor into Deep Wound from the lower floor with his power. It’s so absurd I keep asking: do the devs actually play-test their own game before releasing this, or is it just about numbers now?

    And then they campaign for the “Labor of Love” award… funniest joke since the “Refreshing Civilization” clip.

    Complain long and enough and they'll change em for you. If all we had was a perk less trapper to play you still wouldn't be happy.

    Survivors do this to literally anyone. I remember one of my teammates dcing a few seconds into the match as soon as ( i assume) he heard the clown TR. No easy match = give up. Cant blame them if theyre soloq tho.

    I definitely blame them. I personally dont think you should be punished for not enjoying your game and leaving it but I also think if you dont want the hard games along with the easy ones then go play some thing single player that let's you pick your difficulty.

    Well there's a difference between hard and unwinnable. A hard game is like a game against a good B tier killer with good teammates. Maybe an A tier killer on a good survivor sided map. But when it comes to something like ghoul stacked with meta perks, unless the ghoul is trash, that's not a hard game that's an impossible game. The ghoul should win this soloq matchup most of the time.

    Righttt I remember that Ghoul can weirdly hit a survivor on the second floor while he's on the ground floor and other times he can hit through objects and walls at time. I hope they take a look at that.

    Ive prestiged ghoul to 100 as big fan of Rize from the anime, but have barely played them since launch as 50% of the rounds were the same as you mentioned, or you just end up winning too easily most of the time (which should be fun) with people giving up halfway. I prefer to play the game honorably and if they escape they escape. Most of the time i dont even end up killing the 4th person if they show some kinda "please dont kill me" gesture lol but with ghoul its always "please just kill me".

    correction: survs hate killers being handed effortless wins to them on a silver platter. at least blight has to actually use his brain to get a hit, ghoul just mindlessly spams a button in power and is handed a free injury AND deep wound. oh and he also lands on top of you after doing absolutely nothing. oh wait, he saw you, he lands on top of you, injures you and puts you in deep wound for simply looking in your direction and spamming a button. amazing very well played.
