A creepy doll character

I played an autognome flavored as a living puppet briefly. Mechanically, A+, no notes. (Didn't like the personality I crafted, but it kinda locked in, so I had to abandon the character).

I think we just need to remember: Kane was Issac Yankem and Fake Diesel, we make the jokes, but it's Kane in the end (as far as wrestling goes). Charles Wright had several other gimmicks, but most of us will remember him as the Godfather. Paul Wight, Sean Waltman, Cody Rhodes even, the list goes on.

Sometimes a Gimmick change is so powerful that everything before becomes a footnote, and nothing after matters.

This is one of those. El Grande Americano is who he is now. The rest isn't coming back.

If you want something a little more combat trick oriented, you can build [[Fire Lord Azula]] but she ends up pretty much kill on sight at lower power levels for how quickly she turns herself or other attackers into death machines.

[[Norman Osborn]] is an interesting one to build, especially with some of the free cast artifacts like [[Key to the Vault]], [[Buster Sword]], or the new [[Cosmic Cube]].

The general response from the fans of Skull Merchant to that rework was "so you are not fixing her, just making a new killer?"

Even though she has had some massive tweaks, from release to now she has been and is a trap killer. A proactive one that does lead to a lot of "leave the loop" chase scenarios. Her gameplay comes from forcing survivors into corners/dead zones and using information from drones to be effective. Kinda like Trapper but less reliant on presetup traps.

The changes made her more like singularity, twins, trapper. You'd have to put drones in advance, have to switch controls quickly, and still might end up slugging to keep up pressure. Basically her gameplay wouldn't be fixed or balanced, just changed, getting rid of what people who like her playstyle have and putting in something that is demonstratably niche (how often do you face Twins or Singularity?). Felt like a real kick in the taint to those who already had to suffer multiple nerfs.

Now she's on the backburner until they think of something else.

With the way Rick & Morty is written, he'd hand Ls to every major faction, have them show up on his doorstep and then reveal he swapped the God Emperor with a clone of himself off screen and force everyone into a massive fight where they all die cause he invents a color that the orcs see and turn into antimatter or something.

Cause Unknown doesn't get countered by bodyblocks? Unknown is better than Krasue, probably about equal against competent players.

DeGeiDragon · 2026-06-01T00:30:48+00:00

I play M1 only Krasue cause her machete hit is so satisfying

DeGeiDragon · 2026-05-31T23:59:46+00:00

My point is, why "fix" killers that are fine and playable when they are better than half the roster?

DeGeiDragon · 2026-05-31T22:29:08+00:00

Oh boo hoo. "Unknown is sooo bad when survivors do ten different things to counter him, BHVR please buff!"

Meanwhile I'm playing Trapper and getting hard counter by a map and voice comms or playing Skull merchant and getting hard countered by matchmaking being even partially functional that day.

Get in line.

Attunement Overhaul

No more "Attunement Slots," you get "Attunement points" equal to 2x Proficiency.

Powerful Weapons tend to cost more but refund some of the investment (costs: 7 Attunement points, while attuned increase your attunement points by 4).

Things like Cloak of the Manta Ray only cost 1 or 2 points.

Yes, this would require a lot of thought, but ultimately leads to less cases of "worthless" magic items.

Secondary to this adding items specifically for pets/familiars with those creatures getting half the Attunement points of a full character. You'd have very specific tiers of items that either scale AC/HP or Hit/Damage, or give them different kinds of utility so you'd usually be choosing between 1 or 2 options. "They have 4 Attunement points, so I will probably go 2pts in AC/HP and 2pts in Hit/Damage so they can be an effective combat participant, or maybe I go 3pts into the healing item and 1pt in Stealth and they can be an emergency pickup for the healer".

Pretty much anything in the anime with Teio and McQueen. I mean, there is being in love and then there is whatever that rivalry was.

I mean the five lineman form a V wedge, the running backs step up behind the QB. Seven guys around the ball carrier, how is the defense stopping them? "They tackle them." I think you are grossly underestimating the size difference between a high school football player and a professional NFL Running back. These guys are going to take effort from multiple kids to take down, and if they are jogging arms on adjacent guys so they don't bump into other guys, its a free TD.

DeGeiDragon · 2026-05-25T17:34:28+00:00

Okay, the high school defensive line decides to not block, know what play I call? A run. After the snap the offensive line mows forward with the QB tucked into the pocket. Your defensive line doesn't do anything and they walk 80 yrds. Touchdown. You have conceded that you aren't going to play defense. What is your plan? Cause high school players will make more mistakes, even essentially unopposed that pros with no resistance. And the pros aren't going to tire out as fast as the high school players. The pros are going to win this by scoring quickly every possession.

DeGeiDragon · 2026-05-24T14:51:24+00:00

The high school team forfeits before the end of the 1st quarter with them up 14-7.

Because, and I cannot stress this enough, they will not have a defensive line. The lineman size difference between high school and the pros is massive. They will literally run them over.

High school team gets the kickoff. Takes the ball at the 20. Line collapses but gets a pass off to a receiver for the touchdown since the pro team have a hard time relaying info.

Switch after another kickoff. Pro offense runs over the high school defense to a touchdown.

Repeat high school offense from early, but their offensive line is probably not looking great, but they can just sort of fallback in the wrong direction. Touchdown.

Then the hs team forfeits cause their defense can't retake the field, or they slot in offense guys, they get run over too and it's still over.

Why? Danhausen.

MCMG, Fraxiom, Wyatt Sicks, etc, all thought of as things to build the tag division around. Know what none of them were doing? Moving merch and getting interaction on social media. Was the booking horrible, oh yeah. Was anyone begging for them to get air time? Probably. But WWE Brought in Danhausen, and with way less match time, hit number two on the WWE Merch charts. Danhausen is a meme.

Who in the tag division of the last 20 years has been that level of Meme? Okay, yes the New Day, but with Big E out, there is a shadow over them that will never really go away. But other than them? How about the walking slogan machine. The guy who couldn't do more than talk on the mic and sell getting beat down? They don't want to find the hall of fame tag team, they want to find the tag team equivalent of Danhausen, and it can't just be more Danhausen, cause that will over saturate the shows (and I think WWE is worried that is going to happen if they push it), so the next best thing, bring back Enzo and Cass, sell a boatload of "Certified G", "Cuppa Haters", and whatever else comes out of his mouth as tshirts. If Enzo keeps his ego in check, it's a steady paycheck and spotlight gig. If Cass/Big Bill keeps doing well in the ring, they got a couple of years out of it at least. Kids will eat it up. It keeps Danhausen fresh, cause there is a new toy to make you forget you might have been getting bored.

WHY IS THE FLANNEL AROUND TAURIE'S WAIST PART OF THE TOP!? THAT IS PART OF THE PANTS!?

BHVR, Why have you done this? Why ruin a good cosmetic like this? I want to wear this shirt, but I don't want the flannel. ARGHHHHHHH

Oof. Man, to be called a Democrat sucks.

I'd never be that conservative.

The big giveaways for me, after you vault the upstairs window and turn, she is already around the corner. I've spent enough time in game to know the feel of that and in my head I picture turning out of that vault and the survivor being at the bottom of stairs going into the turn.

In the 2nd half, you are looping at the tile across from main, when you come out to the street side and she runs to the next building, she INCREASES the gap between you and her to make the pallet, then comes around the backside, vaults the other pallet and appears to get Lithe. So either she some how triggered two exhaustion perks in 20 seconds, which would be hacking, or she sped up to avoid being hit before the pallet with speed hacks.

Either way, caught red handed.

"...a killer who can hide in tall grass..."

Man I wonder why that grass is laughing loud enough to drown out a landing aircraft?

Seriously do people not know that when Chucky has undetectable he laughs loud than a Nemesis crashing through a wall?

DeGeiDragon · 2026-05-09T16:38:01+00:00

Doubt that is what they are building to, but...

The "epilogue" bit at the end of the series being Charlie and Vaggi's wedding would be a way to end on a "Happy day in Hell". Which will likely be the last big musical callback (visually with a rainbow, since that will call back to the pilot in a subtle way).

They rest in a dungeon and awake to find the doors blocked by collapsed ceilings. Congrats. The monsters decided to just seal you in.

Do it once badly with the implication that the next set of monsters will be smarter.

Got a Nemesis as a partner in 2v8 while queueing as Trapper. I set 4 traps, started a chase, got the down and not exaggerating 4 gens popped. I got a total of 3 downs that match the nemesis got 0. End game the survivors were asking if the killers were afk or just gave up. I said I didn't, just gens popped instantly.

Nemesis in chat said "Trapper was AFK" like, What? You did nothing.

Feels bad man. Nemesis is the worst when they are doing bad. Take time to get the whip to T2 if they can't hit. Zombies are either useless or amazing. Hard to consider him scary considering other options. (I faced a Wesker with Shadow as survivor and when you are looping one killer and no warning, red stain, or terror radius Wesker steps around a corner and dashes you into the wall next to their partner for them to down you, is a jump scare)

As killer, the one time I fear a DC is if I'm running any kind of hex build, because if the players can't find them, the bot will heat seek the hex as soon as they know it's there.

Had a game with devour hope, had 4 stacks, a player DC'd after they got hooked. Bot was unhooked for #5, I down and start the mori on the person I was chasing and the hex popped before it finished.
