  1. I accidentally called Mage Hand as Magic Hand, please don't destroy me in the comments 💀

    This is my opinion on everything coming this next chapter, including Vecna and the new survivors! I will also be doing a fun facts video soonish, showcasing the map 😀 Do you agree, or disagree? Let me know in the comments!

  2. The only changes thoughts U can think of for Vecna is to decrease the slow down after and during the spell, decrease the spell recharge time by about 10 seconds, and make hitting flight of the damned easier to hit, then we easily have the single best killer for both sides

  3. you are off a whole bean if you think he should be able to attack faster after literally FLYING…. killer players really want to be op gods but through an insane twitter fit if we get a tiny bit of haste when injured lmfao,

  4. As a dnd player I love this chapter and I am definitely going to get it. I am excited to eventually get vecna and the survivors. Despite the fact that I’m excited I think there are some buffs that are needed to the slowdowns and cool downs.

  5. The most survivor sided killer lmao (only singularity can be more)

    Him not getting any advantage/strenghment when recovering his eye/hand not being able to look after it is problaly one of his main weakness/boringness

    Survs should be able to use the items powers,but using they will not harm if the user has done more than 75% of an gen

  6. A few issues I have with the Lich:

    1.) the slowdown of using his power is too damn long.
    2.) the cooldown of his spells seem just a bit overtuned.
    3.) the skeletons are way to easy to avoid, as just crouching will avoid the slow flight skeletons.

  7. You seem not to be familiar with some DnD terminology the 20 sided die is called a D20, therefore rolling a D20 referes to rolling the die.
    When you roll a a 20 it is usually called a nat 20 as in DnD dice rolls are almost always modified

  8. Vecna doesn't feel like a Killer designed for Killers, most people seem to have more fun as Survivor against him. This isn't necessarily bad but if he isn't fun to play people won't be able to experience the fun to play against him. Picking him seems like shooting yourself in the foot, his items not only counter the power but basic chases too.

  9. 16:05 Small correction I'd like to make here is that it teleports you to a further locker, not farthest. I've gotten teleported to a locker just a few meters away using this item on some occasions. For example, once I tried using it on the Torment Creek main building lockers and I teleported to the lockers on the other side of the wall.

  10. Honestly I am surprised you hated Mage's Hand (magic hand is funny ngl) Because from what I saw in chase you can mess with it kinda Like Nemi's Whip the survivor is gonna try an be greedy you can also Flash it with no slow down. So you can use it to trick the survivors with no loss in speed. Plus if they do drop it you can Quickly Re pick up the pallet and guarantee the hit or down.

    You also Spoke about the Boots to make Magic Hand Give you haste. Yeah on its own its the worst Add-on in the game. Comboing it with the the other add-on makes it far better but still kinda garbage. Its just now in those type of chases you are able to snag more hits. Its legit like Nemi. You can mind game with it on both sides. pre dropping it against him is what breaks it. Since you commit to the Hand you are now slowed down regardless of the add-on and the distance they get is still huge or the loop around it again and if you use the hand you now made the loop be Mind gameable again which is really rough against good players.

    They should buff the haste from the Hand and make the other Add-ons Base kit.

    Lastly the Skulls I agree with you. They are an absolute Joke and its wild to me the devs kinda know how bad it is but made it horrible anyway. They spawn so high in the air…Why can't I am it? Why do i need an add-on for a basic function Artist, Unknow, Singularity, Huntress, Death Slinger, Trickster All have by design? Honestly with how easy it is to counter the skulls they need to wider or the spread reduce the games a bit and make them spawn faster and lower. Because Its really not fun to use because of the cool down and how easy it is to just avoid it.

    There are rare cases you can punish survivors for crouching it but its so rare and space dependent it might as well not exist lol. I hope they find that sweep spot with this killer because honestly he is another amazing and hard killer to use. That rewards skill and understanding how he works and has a lot of options for skill expression.

  11. They really should have made Vecna balanced around having a vicious tug of war between his powers and the survivor's magic items.

    Mage Hand should throw pallets, and maybe even generators, to other spawn points entirely, while survivors with the magic item able to summon temporary pallets to escape.
    Dispelling Orb should be replaced by a permanent Scrying Orb that Vecna can control and move around the map at will, with survivors able to appear invisible or even dispell it with the right magic item. Give him an iri addon to make it possible to teleport to it at the cost of dispelling it.
    His Skeleton power should be a spell that randomly mimics other killer's projectiles (Hatchets, Deathslinger shots, Clown Bottles, Skull Merchant Lasers, Freddy Rifts, PHead Attacks, etc) and has a short cooldown, but can be defended against by any piece of magic armor. I would even say to turn his speed down to 110 to compensate for this being his main mode of attack.
    Fly is fine, but should have multiple options that let you change the spell to other movement options.

  12. In my opinion all of vecnas powers should be buffed to OP on purpose. This killer has a counter item for every one of his spells. And don't forget two for fun counter items that let you completely escape the killer while healthy and straight up turn invisible. Make all his abilities good which combined will make him OP to balance out the counter items to him.

  13. Wouldn't it make more sense if mage hands lift downed pallets Then block it for 2 seconds afterwards so survivors can't just throw it down Immediately
    Also maybe increase ability to block upright pallets to 5 seconds instead of 4.

  14. In my opinion Bhvr giving him powers for all moments and making them incredibly weak,(except Fly, but it's bad too as I think) being afraid making him too strong + items which helps to counter it in different ways and spec items which I think shouldn't be in the game, since the punish for using them is very low, and Vecna can't really do anything with it is a VERY bad decision.
    In my opinion Vecna in his current state in PTB is VERY Low tier killer, shortly saying: A lot of abilities, but the abilities are useless. And lot of people close eyes on it because:"Omg, he's so cool; Damn, so much powers! ; Wow, items!"
    So in my opinion Bhvr needs A LOT of work to do with him, and small buffs won't help.

  15. you can have both the Hand and Eye on 1 person. if someone dies on hook with either item, but hasn't attuned to it, you can pick it up and attune to it even if you already have one of them.

  16. 16:55 BHVR has truly outdone themselves now. They made a killer that makes you wanna kill yourself if you play it. But survivors will have fun cause they have cool super OP items.
    So now its impossible for even the most sweatiest tryhards to try to say that BHVR dont favour survivors, cause they literally made a killer that has nothing but utter shit in its kit, but it gives survivors even more power what they already had… So survivors gets BUFFED by the killer xD
