    Pretty spot on. I'm a Knight main and was convinced that he had the most inconsistent power in the game. But after playing HM I stand corrected.
    It's astounding how BHVR released another AI-based killer that is somehow *worse* than Knight's guards.
    I've seen Snug vault windows I don't want him to, refuse to vault windows I did want him to, curve around objects like he was greased in butter, get stuck on a tiny rock, and sometimes just flat out stop functioning for upwards of 10 seconds for no reason.
    Also, why the fuck does ordering Snug to jump over the same window/pallet that a survivor is vaulting make him jump over them without getting a hit?? This is the most basic way for killers to land hits with their powers;
    Survivor goes towards window > Aim power at window > Power hits survivor > Survivor goes down. Why is this not the case with HM?
    And the fucking gall of BHVR to release a skin that you can only buy with the $20 Auric Cell bundle right alongside the killer that doesn't even function half the time is beyond insulting. They care more about squeezing their playerbase of just a few more dimes than they do of giving them a functional character to play.

    Another thing I hate about her power is that it's terrible at verticality. While the dog has no issue dropping down while in search mode, when using the chase mode ability the dog will refuse to drop down anywhere. It will just stop at the ledge. Literally dropping like a rock would be preferable to this. In addition to this, if the dog grabs onto someone and they drop down from ANY height, even if it's not enough to cause stagger, the dog will let go.

      @@cdxxlxil9159 Trapper and Hag can put Traps under drop downs, Huntress hatches or Clown bottles or Plagues puke or Trickster knifes or Unknowns UTX dont automatically despawn if they reach a lower verticality than they were thrown at. Nurse can blink downwards. Legion, Twins and Spirit can drop down ledges while in their power, ghostface can stalk survivors on different elevations. Most killers are not designed with the intention of being strong verticaly, but their power can work that way. The only killers that cannot fall down ledges are like Wesker using his dash attack and that is different for two reasons:
      1. It prevents exploits of getting to unreachable spots. That doesnt matter since the Dog will just teleport back to you.
      2. When Wesker gets stopped at a ledge he can just fall down it normally. When your puppy gets stopped at a ledge you need to manually walk all the way over to the ledge from where you send it.
      Other killers are not designed around verticality, but they are not nearly as held back by it as Houndmaster is.

  • @Doncroft1
    @Doncroft1 Місяць тому +3

    All Shaking Thunder and Jagged Compass are good perks. After playing her and getting her Adept (by never using her chase power), I can safely say Houndmaster is indeed a pile of dog doodoo. Her power LITERALLY doesn't work, and on the rare occasion it somehow does work, it's hard to use and weak. Own to the D tier for strength and F tier for fun with Houndmaster. They're actually playing money for this crap.

    • @cdxxlxil9159
      @cdxxlxil9159 Місяць тому

      I just COMPLETELY disagree. Perhaps this is a differance in experiance, but i rarely run into bugs on this killer. Most bugs are due to rare perks or strange map geometry. Shes strong as hell, but she does need a perk slot dedicated to anti loop to assist in chases where simpler tiles can really burden her. Running general information perks, and Scourge Hook perks are alot of fun and are super effective. The dog can be hard to control, but Snug does have a consistant pathfinder that makes his chase power reliable. I do think she needs some Quality of Life improvments, but i think she is a sign that the devs are heading to a good direction for killer design. They so far have released 4 bangers in a row.

    • @Doncroft1
      @Doncroft1 Місяць тому +1

    • @JCglitchmaster
      @JCglitchmaster  Місяць тому

      Jagged is good but half that ability shouldn't need to exist if BHVR bothered to update the scourge hook perks which should've been done years ago. All shaking I'd much rather take coup over it and there's not a situation where I wouldn't choose coup over it which is why I personally don't think it's very good.
      There needs to be a new tier created for how unfun the killer is, she actually made me end my stream and go off the game just to make this video because I was so annoyed by the end of the match.

  • @DaPerfecto57
    @DaPerfecto57 Місяць тому +4

    If BHVR are so incompetent at making killers use powers which have an AI attached to them, maybe they should stop making those killers in the first place.
    Instead, it would be interesting to see a killer being able to run up and down walls to perform aerials, or a killer that can fly up and down or glide around (e.g.: Green Goblin), or a killer that is radioactive and can emit blasts with a certain radius based on how much Francium its collected. Combination of Nurse and Hag would be a killer who can open temporary portals for a second or so to run through during which they cannot see survivors and being able to lay traps down which when successfully sprung teleports the survivor somewhere into the killer's terror radius.
    But no, we get more broken AI killers.

    • @cdxxlxil9159
      @cdxxlxil9159 Місяць тому

      @DaPerfecto57 She is 1 hotfix away from being solid, and the reason why Knight was patched so quickly while Twins took excessively long was due to their popularity. The devs are not going to spend time on something that would not be appreciated or be profitable. Besides, alot of the ideas that you are describing would also be buggy and require an insane amount of playtesting to get right.

  • @DiamondPickaxe2
    @DiamondPickaxe2 Місяць тому +5

    I agree with you so hard on every point
    Her power though I'd compare closer to pinhead instead of slinger but it's really like a blend of artist/slinger/pinhead? Anyway my biggest gripe apart from it being so damn difficult to hit with and being inconsistent with results from the hit is the MASSIVE slowdown you get just for TOUCHING the power button. Making it so you can't even feint the attack at all without giving the survivor another 16m of distance unlike slinger. And this is for a power that doesn't even guarantee a damage state when you connect with it. Perhaps their reasoning for the slowdown was that she is 115 speed? But artist is 115 and her power loses very little distance
    Another downside of her power is that it can't be used over loops and obstacles unlike slinger/artist/pinhead
    Her only upside is that the power can be used surprisingly quickly when you get the timing right ..and sometimes you can snipe with the dog before getting chase

      @kojinooni Місяць тому +4

      The power feels survivor sided.
      Chase can be ended by dropping a pallet b4 it reaches pallet, when its under pallet, while you are near pallet being grabbed. The vault for chase is so slow it has 3 stops before vault, during and after where the dog for 4 secs doesn't have a hit detection.
      Hound sense doesn't do anything to the survivors unless you have specific addons. What else is in her kit? Movement speed where is you follow a line (which is a very odd and possibly inefficient route), but cant be used during chase.
      This is poor design and implementation.

    The problem is that BHVR keeps pumping out new chapters every three months because they desperately need money to be able to afford to keep their DEI department running. They should take a quarter each year just to improve the current game. It would also help if they skipped working on all these lame game modes which are invariably tilted in Survivors' favor and increase queue times for normal mode.
    This chapter was pointless. The game did not need any more ugly women, it has plenty. The game did not need another dash/projectile Killer that is eaay to counter, it has plenty. Of course those are yhe only kinds of Killer allowed anymore, unique powers like Skull Merchants get nerfed to the ground. All because BHVR knows Survivor players are going to buy 4x the costumes that Killers will, so they must be appeased.
    But hey, at least there's a dog. I have a couple of solutions thsy no one will ever listen to. They could make the dog's bite actually injure AND grab so you can hit for a down, which I don't think would be overpowered since it's similar to Legion. Or the dog could be completely AI, chasing and grabbing and redirecting all on its own, so you can at least be an M1 Killer without slowing yourself down to use the power at considerable risk of losing the target when you miss.

      Why are you here then? If you hate the discourse surrounding her so much, don't engage with it.
      The character _has problems,_ problems that should be pointed out and addressed. If you can't understand that, then I gotta ask once again: why ye be here?
