a lot of people are saying that he is weak, but I assure you in the right hands he is terrifying. If you don't use the color zones correctly or use the clones well, the chases will be long and he will get cipher rushed. If you use the colors well (ex., hitting with red last so survivors can't counter play) then the matches will last 1 minute max. I mean he can literally cancel survivors items whenever he wants lol. He's a weak character in weak hands, I won't be shocked if people would start banning him like they do for opera and Goatman, and I won't be surprised if he gets nerfed very very soon. Build-wise, I think the first hunter bringing blink isn't the best idea (especially because I don't think they used it once), something like warp (to help with map pressure??) or patroller like the second hunter (to get zone hits easier) will help. He NEEDS insolence (we saw in the last match why it's so important to have it early game), his jumps are the only things going for him lol, so def left down build is the way to go. (also random but idk why hunter mike punching the fuck out of survivors is so funny to me TOT)
Just saying, he's probably gonna be a monster in duos. His circle change speed still needs abit of work, but giving that a shorter cooldown using the pill in duos would benefit him alot. Although he may probably be the supporting hunter doing debuff in a tag chase
i got his skin and i got to try him so these are the key things i understood about him; 1-He’s strictly a chase hunter and his mobility is extremely good for big maps that takes a while to rotate in, 2-His camp is really weak unless you have the dog to slow survs down and guarantee an after half rescue, 3-Stunners and distance characters absolutely destroy him since his range is really small but if he has his dash he should be good, 4-He has no cipher pressure at all so also decoders like prisoner and faro lady also ruin him.
@@Sunmii_iactually no cuz anns cats is litteraly her whole kit and is her only ability (besides cross), hullabaloos clones just help him and u don’t need to rely on the clones for him to be good. it’s still an overall win cuz ur slowing cipher rush
Yall always say a hunter is weak bc the quick match demonstrations are of people fumbling as him. Yall did this with Ivy and Wheel n others too Heck yall did this with Goatman and he turned into top 3 hunter overnight
Ball can't expire, which crazy. Why? Because you can easily change target, pretty much controlling the whole stage. Let's say you stack two balls into each survivors, you just snowball every of them until you met a weak link in the team. Since Mike doesn't have any recovery he CAN terror shock you whenever you wanted to rescue
To me it seems there's a bit of luck when playing him, feels like he's gonna be good for specific situations The equivalent to a Clerk going against a decoding team versus a full harass one kind of hunter There's no doubt he's gonna be good once people master him But to me once survivors learned how to counter him he's definitely gonna be a solid tie win hunter There is definitely a lot of room for counter play On both sides ...So I'm looking for to seeing him more
Nah bro, as Clerk main it's depends on the understanding of the hunter. One thing that I can say as Clerk main is, I can have 2 point Berserker and 2 point Rage+Desperate Fight+ Addiction (or just max Rage or max Berserker), best thing I still have Trump Card. First bring Excitement, then switch to Teleport end-game. Not many hunter can have this persona due their relationship with the pallet and window, not to mention the weakness when having low presence and the cipher rush. Even Ivy that at banned basement need Insolence. Double hit hunter may excel when meeting harraser team, but they can't do much when they meet the pallet camper, pallet spammer, or window vaulter. Every hunter have their strength and weakness. It's only the understanding of said hunter that make them "weak."
@heybanon I main Clerk to I used her as an example To make a point Yes she is capable But she still requires specific situations that would benefit her Same would have to go for Ivy This is just mostly 1st impressions it has changed I do think he is a bit much But I can also see The same way you counter a clerk is the same way you can counter him Heavy support distance pulling and breaking line of sight Alongside Tank Characters like Puppeteer Psychologist
@@taroarts5715 Ah I see I see what you're talking about. But I think we need to give him more chance to bloom. I don't think he's weak against puppeteer tho. When survivor at red area, they can't use their item. Getting read ball mean their item get canceled. For psychologist, I think it's understandable 3 hits (9 hits for him). He's fast, so he'll never lose survivors. Even with faro lady, he can cancel her cloak.
As an ex peak tier hunter player for like 23 consecutive seasons, this is the most obnoxious hunter I have seen. Not even pre nerfs bq was as bad. The main problem with this hunter is you can’t rotate him, so you have to rely solely on your kiting abilities. The issue with that is his clones have a long placement range so there is also that. I’d say the biggest flaw with his design is the no attack recovery situation. Mainly cause he can instant pick up survivors so popping the last cipher is near impossible. Force healing is not possible against him and he hard counters any melee harasser. Cowboy gets destroyed by him and he also cancels out flywheel. Some characters like dancer are straight up useless against this guy since his movement speed outperforms the slow box effects. He doesn’t have a bad camp either since you can just scout the area and scuff rescues thanks to the lack of attack recovery. Overall? If they don’t nerf her she is stronger than prime bloody queen. Something I never thought I’d say about a hunter. On a side note, he also hard counters explorer and minds eye since they can’t hide (his clones work like feaster’s tentacles and Joseph’s card showing the nearest survivor) To any crybaby reading this and preparing to come at me, know that I have been a peak hunter player for YEARS. I know what I’m talking about.
Thank u for explanation, I'm still confused how his abilities work. I'm no peak tier hunter but I'm adapted on playing all hunter. I think he's pretty decent hunter. Not near too strong or too weak. But still good hunter to play that takes a lot of practice like a lot
This is what i thought before playing him. But it's easier to injure them than i thought, he is fast and his dash-vault is very useful to hit with different colors
@@gosin90 That's what I mean. Mad Eyes is called weak by everyone, yet you already can tell he's not weak. Do you understand what I told now? Just because you're not understand how the hunter work, doesn't mean that hunter is weak.
@@heybanon mad eyes is weak i did not say hes strong ☠️ i just got his S badge from season 28 and quit he's fun but not even near strong with the current survivors i could say he's broken on the early days but not now
Gosh, the debuff should at least last longer if they're gonna make his hitbox that small. Cipher rush is gonna break him. Also, his detention chase is pretty sad :c i love his concept but with cipher rush he wont be playable on mid to higher tiers :/
"His movement speed is so fast" as if he can take down those survivors instantly with his speed. Calling him broken op hunter is just reaching. Both Ivy and opera were more better than him
Got him last night (first 10 free pulls) and he's bad. You need to hit someone 6 times while changing the colors to down them ?? And when someone rescue you can't really do much. It's frustrating.
The hell? What are we suppose to do when the team is full of stunner like foward or enchantress? They can just stun u while you’re holding a survivor and then u need to hit that survivor 3 more times 😭
11:58 Dancer could have ran back and rescued priestess, or baited him into chasing her so priestess could self heal. What was bud gonna do patroller wasn't up 😭
Everytime we get a new hunter, everybody underrates him/her, but then, people learn how to play them and the plays we can do when using them.

if u place his duplicate thing on a cipher he can actually pressure it because i believe the white square slows down decoding
@@y2k7v dosent make sense cause its his only ability that makes his chase faster, its literally like "Just use Ann's cats on the cipher.."
I mean a camp strategy is to two ball rescuer and hope for a ts, it’s especially good since he has no attack recovery
@@y2k7v that only works if the cipher is close to hulaballo. He can place his clown copys only in tinnitus range

Wait actually patroller doesnt sound that bad on him since his attacks dont deal damage only the third hit he can get the stacks fast like that
HES SO COOLLL I LOVE THE STARS! but only one single voiceline😶🌫
Bro why r people saying he's weak, do y'all not realize he just came out and people can't play him to his full yet?
Yall always say a hunter is weak bc the quick match demonstrations are of people fumbling as him. Yall did this with Ivy and Wheel n others too

Hes the only camper you dont want to camp with, and thats ok! Hopefully we get more hunters in the future that push them out of the camping meta.
Im def gonna have to try this! ONCE I GET HIS S SKON FOR FREE COUGH COUGH NEATEASE
He looks so weak, he is a chaser hunter and yet take SOME TIME to down survivors, i hope is just that we still dont know how to play him properly.

Patroller is best
he doesn’t need blink since he can vault over things once he gets his dash
Love the S tier so much, might even whale
Great job, NetEase! Another broken OP hunter. His movement speed is so fast that he makes Opera Singer, Leo and Nightmare look slow.

When does it arrive on another server?
