[@Seoul_Soldier]

I still don't like that survivors have limited "evil". Imagine if survivors had limited blood for Oni. And there is a reason to play Ghostface still: corner stalking is fun. Hopefully he gets a buff soon though. With how limited marking is, it really needs to fill up faster and breaking him out of his power should take longer.

[@buckylebuccaneer904]

Well. Myers' Insta down lasts 15 more seconds, can last up to 1 minute and 40 seconds which is a long time, and his Insta-down is way easier to control since he is still a 4.6 Meter M1 killer during tier 3

[@grimreaper8575]

His brown add ons should definitely get put into his base kit. Faster stalk, lower cooldown, longer mark, and faster movement while stalking all just feel great to use despite being basic buffs.

[@StalkyBoi]

I think it’s fun when it works, often times when something should be leanable ghostface just won’t lean for me. If he was less finicky I’d like him more

[@DestroyerBG1]

Yeah sure lets buff killers even more as if we even have survivors left that even want to play.

[@PluggedHades62]

I thought initially Michael would be worse because of being punished up close but then I remembered how far survivors get while you’re stalking which made things take way longer. The only issue I see is indoor maps where you’re forced to get close

[@justwatch7091]

Staying as Tier 1 in indoor maps may be a good idea now. You have undetectable 7/24 as a 4.4 killer.

[@otamamoru]

Well done Stalky! I agree with everything you’ve said in this video! He feels great to play, he takes more strategy to him now too. Forcing survivors to be more aware of the environment. The changes are true to his character. My only complaint was the close proximity stalking. Either buff it a tad bit or give us an activation Tier 3 button like The Oni has. I can’t wait to see what changes do come to live and how us Myers mains will adapt to his new play style.

[@Herbster0]

I'm just hoping he gets a bit more before the ptb is live . Like make 15% action speed buff in tier 3 rather then just the vault speed . Also make the up close stalk .5 instead of .4 . Thats about it just minor buffs from ptb .

[@Czesnek]

Make M1 killers great again!

[@pimpsterpidgeon4502]

I believe that these buffs and changes are just temporary before they actually rework him so I assume these changes will reflect on what his rework is going to be which is exciting.

[@liptonpipton4135]

​@@pimpsterpidgeon4502bruh man, this is a rework. He plays drastically different

[@cheggf]

@@liptonpipton4135 This is just number changes, not a rework. Freddy is getting an actual rework in January.

[@StalkyBoi]

I’m down for more buffs, I wouldn’t complain lol

[@tylersmith2849]

They 100% need to give him a tier up button. This is getting stupid that he doesnt have this at this point.

[@StalkyBoi]

Especially with how he is now, tier up button would be very nice

[@konradurbanski645]

I think he hasn't got the button to activate tier 3 yet, mainly because of the existence of the tombstone addons, maybe the devs think it would put survivors in an uncounterble situation

[@buraaqwasti7729]

@@konradurbanski645 I honestly don’t see the point of a button just 99 it and click the stalk when ur on a survivor that’s literally the same exact thing as clicking a different button to enter tier 3?

[@Atomicrow]

​@@buraaqwasti7729 the difference is that 99ing requires you to carefully stalk and make sure you don't accidentally pop it, looking at the corner of your screen instead of the survivor, whereas a tier up button would let you stalk freely to get to the threshold and you wouldn't need to worry about entering tier 3 before you're ready imagine if oni automatically entered blood fury when he gathered that last orb? its completely ridiculous to think how oni would have to play around that, so why should myers?

[@bunnythehutt2148]

I wish BHVR did this with old Freddy, he was so lore accurate and immersive and honestly just needed some buffs and he’d be a good killer.

[@KkawaiiPotato]

Seriously it was so fun to play as and against. One of my most fun matches was using self care and spamming spacebar to insta miss a skill check and I did that at an ass clenching end game while freddy was an inch away from his lunge connecting to me

[@Crashidan]

A compromise for starting tier 3 from far away would be giving tier 3 5 or 10 more seconds of duration, but only if you pop it from a certain distance away. Stbfl has always been a really good perk, but the reason it was considered to be super op before its nerf was because they buffed the killer hit cool down by 10 percent, otherwise before that buff, it was like it is now.

[@mask1724]

That suggestion for having a tier up button like oni has to trigger his blood fury is such a great idea! Thinking about it, it would make so much sense, and shouldn’t be too hard to implement since all the necessary code is already in the game, and I think it would make the experience of playing Myers so much better, while not being OP, because at the end of the day, he still needs to get that 100% stalk which can be difficult with bad game sense or sneaky survivors. Really hope this happens someday

[@thatfishguy4991]

I think they should test an 80 second tier 3 basekit with a massive consumption of charges if he stays near hooks. So he gets more Tier 3 but consumes it faster if he camps.

[@dodang_9147]

so more nerf on a killer that isn't good? i think michael is same. memorial flower+J.Myers removes the downside of 0.4x stalk for 99% stalk. tuft of hair is dead but lock of hair+hair bow is new infinity ev3 build. Mori add-on are still strongest way to play him.

[@cheggf]

All these "while near the hook" things are never going to work. Either the radius is too large and it affects people who aren't camping, or the radius is too small like the current anticamp mechanic and it doesn't do anything at all. If camping really is a problem then the core gameplay of the game should be looked at and adjusted instead of making 10,000 different terrible bandaid fixes to try to make people ignore the issue.

@StalkyBoi OMG the goat 🫶🏻🫶🏻

[@CaptToilet]

Love this change. I will most likely still use monitor for the lower TR along with stealth perks.

[@StalkyBoi]

We love jump scaring survivors

[@someonenamedtailsdoll7805]

Honestly I wish Boyfriend’s memo was included in the basekit. Because if you want to play jumpscare Myers, you still need to run both since you get slowed down with it. Also the massive stalk decrease you get upclose is painful, maybe it could be increased slightly? Not a lot like maybe increasing it to 0.6 or somewhere close to that number. Plus it’s also weird how Myers just suddenly becomes shortsighted like. “ oh no I can’t see, could you run like a bit away so I can see better thank you. “

[@StalkyBoi]

He likes it when they run

[@mr.xenomorphmr.xenomorph1500]

i think 99.9 counter is also good. you can t just get on top of somebody and get free down. also helps against camping.

[@StalkyBoi]

He can still do the 99.9, it'll take a lil bit of time to get used to, but it's not a tool that was taken away. He's much less effective at camping tho fs

[@crunchycakegaming1507]

i think the best way imo to make optimizing your tier 3 duration now is to make tier 3 only start draining once you swing so that you can get a faster vault without being scared to waste tier 3

[@StalkyBoi]

I'm not sure bout that, I think it'd be okay to put the timer on pause while hooking to encourage hooking tho

[@Ruby_Rider]

You are my dedicated Michael Myers Correspondant in DBD, so that face that you like this change makes me feel really really good❤

[@grimreaper8575]

I wish evil slowly refilled throughout the match rather than being limited. Having a larger pool is definitely nice, but limits are still limits. otherwise the only other change i can really ask for in this ptb is like you and a few others have said and give him a tier up button instead of it being automatic. I also cant wait for this to go live so i can mess around with insidious and lethal on him :)

[@StalkyBoi]

I’m surprised they just doubled his evil, I thought for sure they would just have a way for it to regenerate lol

[@thurisaz4life21012]

They lowkey did mikey dirty for this years halloween update in years. hopefully they can rebuff certain things. meanwhile other killers can have fun with the red addons lol

[@StalkyBoi]

I still think Judith’s by itself is a great add on

[@Ugly_ChickenDbD]

In my opinion, Tier III could use a couple of buffs to make Myers a stronger M1 Killer, such as: 1. 10% Break Action Speed Increase 2. 25% Stun Recover Speed Increase 3. Movements speed increased to 4.7 Meters per Second from 4.6 Meters per Second (Optional) I would create a full rework paragraph but these would be nice additional buffs for Evil Within Tier III

[@calebsorrell6235]

I play Tier 1 Myers with no mirrors all the time, so for me this is an awesome update

[@Atomicrow]

sadly lethal is bugged with the mirror pieces and doesnt actually affect them (at least according to otzs testing before the buffs) so hopefully it was/will be fixed

[@StalkyBoi]

Either way then, the shards are pretty good on him

[@D_To_The_J]

The only bad things about the range stalk is indoor maps can be hard to stalk.

[@StalkyBoi]

In my playtime, I wasn't having an issue with indoor maps

[@theblazinfoxx4631]

What do you think about them just, reworking the tombstones and makin' Infinite teir 3 easier to get again? I always thought that infinite teir 3 isn't all that crazy, kinda like facing a legion ( Grant it, its legion with subtle anti loop through the form of vaults and lunges )

[@jasonamrhein9593]

I'm going to experiment with the new Predator on builds that don't incorporate his wall-hack addons. It might be good for stalking a survivor who thinks they got away.

[@StalkyBoi]

You’ll have to report back with the results!

[@legionfalaise7778]

[@StalkyBoi]

[@darthdookrai]

Idk if I missed it but any thoughts on hair brush or blonde hair not getting any love?

[@StalkyBoi]

Not surprised, they did more than I thought they’d do so I’m happy

[@bombthing]

Say what did you mean by his stealth is "always active?" He only has stealth in tier 1, he has half a terror radius in tier 2 which is ok I guess, but in tier 3 you are forced into a 32 meter TR throughout your whole power, so in that case the reason to play ghostface is it's way easier to get stealth 1 shots

[@StalkyBoi]

@@bombthing doesn’t matter if Michaels terror radius is bigger in tier 3, you’re sneaking up in tier 2, dead rabbit, monitor, PWYF, having any one of these makes it tough to react to a Myers who knows how to hide behind cover. If ghostface gets knocked out he has to deal with a normal terror radius for awhile

[@antoniosaraiva9263]

I want a tier up button and the ability to go back to tier 1.

[@StalkyBoi]

That’d be rad

[@Kidkinsey]

Wait wym its bad to stalk from up close now. Like is there a penalty or it’s just not as fast as from far away?

[@StalkyBoi]

Not nearly as fast

[@Kidkinsey]

@StalkyBoi is there a certain distance away I need to be for the stalk buff or it's just the further the higher

[@StalkyBoi]

@@Kidkinsey the further the faster

[@StalkyBoi]

[@strangereligion4373]

Personally, I think facing Myers as a survivor who isn't a p100 that eats and breathes DBD is already very difficult and these buffs can make it feel like a complete steam roll with how fast he can get his exposed and how silently he can just pop out, especially if he's a instakill Myers. I really dislike killers that don't have much counter play from the survivors end, and in my opinion ghost face is a much more fun killer since there IS a way to stop him from getting his instadown, it only applies to the weak link, and paying attention to him can but you time. I'm sure it'll be fun to play as a killer, but definitely not for the survivor side of things but idk

[@StalkyBoi]

imo these changes will make him much more enjoyable to go up against, since it'll be easier to completely feed a Myers. He can no longer completely bull doze into situations and gain lots of stalk from it, you have to be watching from afar now, and if you hide yourself it'll hurt the amount of stalk he can get. You have to actually be aware

[@Gian_sas]

bro how is he difficult I play like twice a week yet I can last indefinitely in chase against him.

[@gameasasin]

[@Crimok]

I think they should rework the tombstone addons. Yes, they are lore accurate but from a gameplay point of view they are broken. Anything else is ok right now. They could even buff him more but tombstone has to go.

[@StalkyBoi]

Surprised they kept tombstone, really weird

[@Crimok]

@StalkyBoi Yeah, kinda weird. But I like the other changes and I'm happy for Myers mains like you. I wonder if they change something else about him because I thought he was anounced to get a rework and these are only some tweaks.

[@Baby-Blue-102]

Alex... I Will Put This As Humbly As Possible. He Needed one. Even considering his less then okay Addons, The Issue Was Just Being Severely Outdated. Im Sure someone can elaborate on my point further, but to my knowledge, myers went with few to no changes, for YEARS. the game is in a state now where killers Need to be capable of more to keep up with survivors, and survivors need more perks to counter inherint game balance issues, such as camping being the best killer strategy, in hopes to create engaging gameplay on both sides. Making more killers viable is Liable to Increase the amount of people who will choose to NOT play like assholes; there is a playstyle for everyone, and there are styles that are unique, and fun within the game. I will credit you and say, having played solo que for about 100 ish hours compared to my experience as a killer being 2000 hours, and the vast majority of my play-time, i have seen my fellow killers and... yeah, a lot of them can be really... really... REALLY fuckin' mean. I do not advocate for their behaviors. at the same time, there are sometimes legit Accidents. sometimes a game is just a steamroll, and you're trying to give others a chance or show some mercy, and people who just want to go next take it the wrong way and DC. its happened. i've been both the killer & The DC'er and its not fun for either side. but to prevent scenarios where people just go next, gameplay should be fun and engaging. the more viable killers there are, the more likely that is to happen. People don't play the cool bad killers BECAUSE their bad. if they were good, killer variance would likely go up. people don't just choose to main trapper untill they have enough experience because, bluntly put, he just kinda sucks. i play him now, with varying degrees of success, but it took me ages to get there, and he's not the only killer i play or main as well. TLDR: More Buffed Killers = More Killer Variety. More Killer Variety = Less Need For Killers To By An Asshole because there's something for everyone. Less Killers who are assholes = less survivors who are assholes, = fun game. or at least, good sports. at least, thats my take on it. take it with a grain of salt if you want, but its of my opinion that weaker killers need to be buffed & Reworked BEFORE the stronger killers get nerfed. then, everything should even out very nicely.

[@AlexStevenson-e8m]

@@Baby-Blue-102 idk i get it im just tired of the lame ass legion, ghostface, Myers players in solo queue meanwhile my so called "teammates" are clueless on what to do and get killed. Myers is perfect for this, free stalk into tier 3, barely any counter to it especially on solo queue, into 3 of your teammates getting killed in five minutes and then, there's the loss. Not saying I'm immune from this I make mistakes and fuck up too. I hate legion more though for this exact problem but he doesn't need to buildup a stalk level like Myers or ghostface, he just... gets frenzy and you have to hope A you or a survivor can pallet stun him, has a flashlight or pray survivors are far enough apart that he cant get full use of his ability. Now with Myers I just do not enjoy playing against him, its never an interesting match, or even mentally engaging. Doesn't matter what I do he always builds up tier 3 and just wins the moment that happens, at least with Ghostface if you FIND HIM and LOOK AT HIM it goes away but with Myers? unless you're working with a team and the Myers has no idea how to counter gen rush, or its the Myers first game fuck you you're dead and cant avoid it! I have a better time playing against Doctor or Nurse or even Wraith compared to the baby mode character bullshit Myers has
