Hello everyone I'm Jack Red, a little while ago I gotten Adept Trickster achievement. To be honest, this guy quickly got my attention even before I knew his story. Honestly, I am happy DbD went more outside the box with a character like this. To clarify, they have some interesting original characters on both sides. I meant, this guy is not only true to his name but one of the most addicting killers to play as.

Some add-ons will make parts of this easier. Same with having his perks up to tier 3, when I done this they weren't. The Trickster is surprisingly effective when it comes to looping situations. You can rapidly throw knives with the default amount being sixty knives. Like The Huntress, to reload simply open a locker that doesn't have a survivor.
It is possible to hit survivors at particular angles while throwing those knives. It is also possible to trick them getting away from loop spots or indirectly at a spot you can hit em with your bat. He also has an ability to greatly increase the rate he throws knives. If you hit the survivors with enough knives, they'll be down.
He works best in maps you can see the survivors easier. Keep in mind, the knives will be blocked by walls or dropped pallets. Thankfully, he can throw em above the pallets to land hits on the survivors. You would be surprised at the distance he can throw em too. I would say he's much better to me than The Huntress & The Clown.
The Trickster is amazing in the right hands. He potentially can hold his own against great teams. I liked the controls for using his attacks in general. He isn't hard to learn at all just takes time getting use to throwing the knives. It took me a little bit to get use to how he swings his bat. Which does have a notable range to hit survivors as well.
Overall, this guy is one of my favorite killers they created in the game. Yeah he doesn't appear to be scary but his back story is pretty mess up stuff. Also, his mechanics are interesting enough to get many people to give him a try. Honestly, simply throwing the knives is addicting as well as being very easy. This guy is well around with no major changes needed to improve him, to me he's done just right for this.
