Why is Trickster the worst killer on his own map?

The new map looks amazing and captures the urban feeling very well but is honestly a nightmare to play with trickster. U got so many corners that can break line of sight, a lot of good vaults that lead into good pallets that you cant really play around without breaking them and even loops that u can't keep chase in cause ur just to slow and that in theory are infinite cause the vaults never block cause u keep losing chase. U got strong vaults right next to a shop with a glass wall to make sure that you can't even mindgame it cause survivors can just see u through the glass. Like with huntress u at least only need short los to do some damage but trickster is just screwed on this map.

Im sry but this is just a nightmare gameplay wise and needs a rework imo

    Its nothing new as the maps are not made to be totally best for them but meant to reflect their view of the world. Like most killers their released map is not good for them. Huntress = Mother's Dwelling, Nightmare = Badham Preschool I, Pig = The Game, Plague = Temple of Purgation, Demogorgon = Underground Complex, Executioner = Midwich Elementary School, Nemesis = Raccoon City Police Department, Artist = Eyrie of Crows, Dredge = Garden of Joy and Xenomorph = Nostromo Wreckage.

    Not sure i agree with that. Hawkins lab is a pretty decent map for demo, easy to hide portals out of los of gens to ambush people and nothing makes hitting shreds easier than corridors and choke point doorways, nemi works quite well on rpd, love when a zombie blocks a choke point for survs, the tight quarters make it easier to hit tentacle whips too. Tbh the only one of those that looks genuinely bad for it's killer is pig on meat plant. Hard to stealth play on that map and pallets for days against what is essentially an M1 killer.

    I do definitely agree that tricksters map is bad for him though. So many indoor spaces and ways to break LoS to stop knives.

    A lot of killers are not good on their own maps.

    Garden of joy sure as heck is not good for Dredge. Red Forest is buns for Huntress. Pig doesn't have fun on the pallet town that is Gideon. I doubt Freddy thrives on Badham. And so on….

    One fact is many killers are bad on their maps and second thing is that map is super bad for slower speed killers that require line of sight for their power to work which his map is not to mention one of his biggest counters prerunning is on that map so good.

    This. I know it's very much a "first world killer problem", but Nurse is a nightmare to play on that map.

    Trickster requires line of sight but on Tricksters delusional there's so many Line of sight blockers and cutoffs like objects door ways and buildings it makes it very hard to get hits with trickster.

    I feel like it would be less of a problem had they not downed him to 4.4 - he's feeling pretty rough on maps with lots of LOS blockers when the survivors play well.
