Chucky 8.0.0 Rework! 

The only thing I don’t like about this change is that you won’t be able to hear chucky’s scamper laughs anymore

"enter slice & dice -> survivor drops pallet -> you kick the pallet -> you're still in hidey-ho and can still catch up with a slice and dice" sounds like the new big strategy. Brutal Strength could be really good for him.

slice and dice on a 12 sec cooldown, holy shit, survivors are gonna keep dropping like flies

it's not a good change, I started playing Killer because of Chucky and his problem isn't with the Scamper it's with map pressure. He's still slow enough that he needs Gen slowdown perks to stand a real chance, scamper helped with closing out loops that he simply can't slice & dice on. taking scamper away opens a huge gap now on certain loops because you cannot flick during the power with scampering under a pallet. Like the survivor literally has to be running in a straight line to get value from it which they almost never do. If they brought back his flick from the PTB maybe then this change would work but they didn't so this is a hard nerf which sucks, I mean you can still win with him but it will be a bit harder.

also there’s a bug that if you charge slice in front of the dropped pallet you don’t scamper over, you just hit the wall, is very annoying

We gotta remake the trailer to where he slice and diced into pallet and ran into the minibar

They should've made it so once he scampers under a pallet he enters cooldown

Well, I guess I have to hurry up and get the achievment before the PTB gets Live Overall, a "great" change. Now Chuckster is basically another rush killer like Blight and Wesker. Just with a bit of stealth sprinkled on top and a massive handicap of 110% speed

I'm more a surv main but i've to say that scamper wasn't that much to deal with. Most of the times you could expect when Chucky was going to scamper and prevent the hit. It was funny in my opinion. I think it was better if he could still scamper but after that he would've lose his power so he couldn't scamper again or use Slice & Dice.

RIP chucky

look how they massacred my boy also, behavior should change his trailer too, bcz he can scamper under a pallet normally

They could of like tweaked the cooldown or speed instead of removing it. And even then, it wasn't really that OP????

What's the point of just scamping with the charged attack? when the survivor only takes one side and that's it...Chucky keeps going...

Thank you so much for this vid. I'm new and I've been trying like crazy to figure out what I was doing wrong that I could not scamper under pallets. I think they forgot to change the tooltip for the power, so it's misleading now.

What happened to Hard Helmet? Did they remove the downside or change it to something else? (I play on console so I can’t play the PTB’s)

I think this change is pretty good. The one thing I think it needs is to allow Chucky to rotate during a Scamper like a LoPro Billy so that a rushed Scamper isn't useless due to the fact survivors can turn. Other than that, the fact that Chucky can now pop stealth whenever he feels like it without being heavily penalized incentivizes some sneaky gameplay, which is something the other rush killers can't do. Before this buff, stealth just wasn't really on the table because of how damning that cooldown was relative to the amount of stealth you got, meaning that facet ended up dumped out the window in favor of using the power only in chase. But now you have the option of using it for stealth and getting it back twice as fast as Ghostface anyways! I'm quite excited to see how sneaky he can be now.

Im ngl i really dont like having to use slice and dice to scamper how will you do the double vault mind games on shack with survivors that actually use their ears??

There's another change they talked about, now there's a cool down of 1 second when cancelling the Slice and Dice charge up. I'm not English so I could be wrong, but isn't it a slight nerf?

You can't scamper through windows anymore with slice n fice either. I tried it in the game after the update, and I couldn't do it

I love the 12 second cooldown cause I can use Hidey-Ho alot more & that we can still use the Hidey-Ho window mind game. I rarely scamper under pallets anyways so this is a win for me. 🔥🔥

Can you do everyone playing a guitar thing?

Does this technically remove some voice lines?

Chucky needed a reduced cool down for Hidey Ho mode for a long time and they ruined his Scamper the only use for it is vaulting.

Look, if it continues to work in windows, maybe it won't be so bad. I've been playing Chucky to see how much I depend on the scamper, and maybe being able to break the pallet and then use Slice&Dice would be good... We'll see...

scamper went from being too strong to completely useless, Typical thing for BHVR to do.

RIP my love...

most people on comments thinks chucky got nerfed, i follow the top 1 chucky and she said, chuck is much stronger now, with really less cooldown to slice and dice, and his scamper still works on windows, so strong to use it with bamboozle, survs are really goingo to cry about him now

i wonder if slowing down a bit the animation would be enough to make it balanced cause even so the dash almost gives a free hit every time

Well...R.I.P scamper

R.I.P Chucky

He cant scamper over windows without slice and dice anymore 😢

As a Chucky main, I won’t cry about scampering being taken out. But I do think removing it was just unnecessary. I feel like being on cooldown after a scampering would’ve helped a lot of people out more but alas.. Twitter and Reddit users cry a lot. Overall, his changes are fine but I do think a scamper cooldown would’ve benefited more.

Also, I dont agree with the removal of scampering without slice and dice still. Yeah sure, it nice he got buffs to power cooldown speed and in general scamper speed, but when they said "scampering lead to unencounterable hits" i completely disagreed with the devs. Its not Chucky's fault the survivor either messes up their loop or doesnt leave it entirely and gets hit.

Why couldn't they just increase the Scamper time by a few seconds? By their changes it kills the killer's power a lot. Just increase the animation from 1.4 to 1.7-1.8 seconds (for example) THAT'S IT!

Scamper was not a problem, it was just a mindgame opportunity. Even with dedicated addons, you wouldn't get a survivor just by scampering mindlessly and following them blindly. This is going to be a big hit in Chucky's kill and pick rate.

What a shame it is one of the few killers I have.

Having played Chucky a bit (albeit on PS5), he's now useless. It's not hard to dodge his dash in the open, and pallets now completely shut him down. It is actually better to just break the pallet.

press F to pay respect

A lot more broken pallets now 😂😂 i think they should give him a cucumber as a weapon, and that he can only use it when turning around 3 times. But seriously are they gonna rework some add ons as well then? As the hard hat was almost useless but will be completly now 😅

He should keep the buff and should be able to scamper, this is stupid

I personally hate this change. If the idea of the killer was to be illusive and stealthy, why didn’t they make his stealth any more reliable and instead just made him more likely to repeatedly use slice and dice in chase? The longer cooldown felt like an incentive to time your slice and dice whereas now you just get it back quickly enough to not matter. IMO the previous cooldown but with an extended hidey-ho duration would have made more sense, at least if they made his laughing while in hidey-ho a little less consistent.

seems chucky got worse around loops espeically pallets! but better in the open and more stealth time eitherway idk! being force to slice in dice is kinda STUPID! since this game doesn't punish survivors who pre drop scamper actually did, now that is completely gone.

0:23 How you do this? I cant do this in game.

rip

Scamper is kinda useless now. Nobody uses it during Slice and Dice, like it was never good to use Scamper during a Slice and Dice unless for chaining vault memes. It might as well not be there at all it's that bad.

Personally, I would prefer scampering under pallets regularly, but it costs a chunk of hidey ho after every slide.

They removed scancel, im sad af now

I don’t see people getting hits with scamper very often if ever, survivor can just hard turn after a vault and avoid it easily, at least the cooldown is much better.

That's fair balanced. but 12 sec cooldown sound like shit fun.

The scamper in pallets aren't that good only little distance Chucky can make. Cooldown in Hidey ho is more broken + add-ons

OMG THEIR NERFING CHUCKY!

The killer already has a ton of advantage w that third person and now he gets buffed even more🗿

Finally he's fair. But is he still fun? Idk tbh.

Damn, we all know it was noob jimmy no thumbs feng min that did this to chucky.

Tbh I thought that was how it was supposed to work💀

People just run lwft or right to dodge so we can't complain

What a coincidence I see all survivor mains and people who don't play Chucky think scamper is overpowered.

great all survivors now have to do is hold W into a corner

This change better not go through like I genuinely hate bhvr balance team

Rip lil chucky

REWORKED O NERFF XD well is good was OP

The pallet nerf was so unnecessary. that ability is basically useless now because it’s damn near impossible to hit anyone after scampering under a pallet and immediately charging afterwards. It’s becoming very obvious that they don’t test these at all

BRO THIS SUCKS!!!! i am a survivor main, but when i play killer, i always play chucky, and i like how he is right now, but this....i dont like this

According to DBD's latest killer stats, there should be no worry about any of this because Chucky is almost never played, lmao.

i hardly ever use scamper anyways

😓

Why are we buffing this man😭

This is the things that i never get of survivors complains against Chucky "Scamper is very OP, you can't do anything against him" -Well, Wesker vaults the pallet and recovers fast, Legion can fast vault with his power the times wherever he/she wants, Knight can destroy the pallet quickly, Vecna can fly the pallet (this is assuming he will get buff in the Live) "Chucky's flicks can't be predictable, soooo OP" -Wesker still can hug tech in surface where is supposed not, Blight still can do it, Hillbilly now does it better, Oni can do it "The power feels now very quickly, why it was buff, it was fine with 18 secs" -Wesker can recover it in 5 secs, Nurse can recover her power almost instantly, Blight with the nerfs still getting a quick recovering, Spirit also has a decent recovery of her power I'm thinking people complained about Chucky so much for the toxic players, but since the PTB he was a fun killer, easy to understand, easy to master and now he got butchered

This is gonna kill Chucky on console

Survivors brought this on themselves

Chucky.!!!! Que te hicieron esos Malditos de DBD 😓😓😣😣 Odio a los creadores de DBD por los cambios que te hicieron! Nooooo 💔

This is gonna be cancer if it goes live, dead zones make him even more stronger now and he will constantly be stealthy and in his power while being so small. His attack is already so ez to hit, and now they make it come back quicker.

Were people really complaining about chucky? As a survivor main, I thought he was fine, and really fun to face. Playing him was fun. As well. BHVR always making unnecessary changes. 🙄

Rework? Fu34ing nerf

and people wanna tell me he was getting nerfed hard please

Removed the... y'know....realism? I get its balanced but that's his whole point. Hes small amd can slip through things. Kinda kills his roleplay potential other than voicelines but it's hard to ti hear over the gens BBINNNGGGG

It’s so stupid how they take out the scamper under pallets. It was easily counterable and he’s already slow in general. Devs suck ass I stg.

They buffed the hell out of him

Honestly everything in this is welcome to me because to me what makes Chucky good is being a hit and run or ambush style killer similar to Wraith and I’m not gonna lie the old meta of “Have your power charged, wait for pallet, scamper, hit” was honestly very boring and sometimes depending on the loop didn’t even guarantee a hit so I’m happy the change makes it more challenging to play him. Honestly now that I think about it this is gonna make him “Child’s Play” if you equip Brutal Strength tho because the new strategy could be “Wait for power, force them to drop pallet then brutal strength it and checkmate since you’re still in Hidey Ho mode just catch up with slice and dice” honestly this change might make him even stronger because of how quickly he’ll shred through pallets now /:

Chucky players are just like wraith players.

It’s amazing how people see this as a bad lesson cooldown means more stealth and power usage, in return they took away a pretty unhealthy part of his kit idc who you are scampering under a pallet was just a guaranteed hit for the killer there was no skill involved and it was just cheap But in return he can use his slice and dice more often which means he can shut down chases faster if you’re good enough

Shoulda never been added awful to play against

Whatever I never liked that little gremlin anyway

Stupid, they keep messing up killers. This game is really survivor sided. I should be able to just slide under a pallet, not have to start running. But leave it to behavior to get rid of things that work . As soon as survivors complain about something, that's it 😂.

Trash Behavior why just why

Nope. Just nope. I honestly don't like these changes. Slice n' Dish is fine, but now being unable to scamper normally to mind-game survivors is going to be a challenge at the most difficult loops, especially with their movement speed.

Definitely a nerf. As a survivor main I wanna say this is great for us because it keeps Chucky more skill based only because now you’re forced to think “can I slice and dice this?” Rather than “Should I?” Because going under pallets is not skillful and it rewards killers with a hit (the same way Legion being able to vault pallets is not “skill”) However I can see how this immediately raises the skill ceiling for Chucky since he can no longer crawl under and instead is forced to track survivors through the animation and predict their movement in order to secure a hit. It is 100% much more harder to do now than before but it’s also more “skillful” and makes his gameplay more dynamic since survivors have a chance to dodge while killers have to focus hard to get that snipe.
