Maybe I'm just ass at Springtrap, but he seems really, REALLY weak imo... He can't do shit on Forest, for one thing. 

Also his abilities all rely on the survivors failing to dodge the super telegraphed ability with a loud sound cue. 

He has to hope the survivors manage their stamina poorly in order to land Charge, otherwise he has to be right on top of them.

His anti-loop is genuinely hot garbage, by the time he places a trap (that he cannot move, btw), the survivor has run to a new loop.

He can trap like 3 traps on 3 different loops, but every single map will have a 4th nigh impossible to deal with loop for survivors to abuse, and now he literally can't place any more traps unless some dumbass steps in one of them (will never happen since most players have visible hitboxes on, which for some reason highlights the trap with a big red circle 😭). The game's balanced around looping, so why'd they make Springy boi's anti-loop so comically ass?

He's too slow to justify being a "rushdown", and not good enough at trapping to justified being a "trapper", getting bullied by anyone who knows how to loop (the amount of times I've looped a Springtrap for several minutes as SECURITY GUARD is crazy... these weren't noobs either, they had the Hoax skin lol).

Barricading just completely ruins his life, especially on Pizzeria where he can't trap every single door.



I mean, if by "balanced" they mean "coughing baby against a competent team", then I guess yeah, Springtrap's pretty "balanced". I've seen good Springtrap players before and they always have to sweat ten times harder than any other killer, I genuinely feel bad for them most the time. 9/10 if I died to a Springtrap, it's because of either collision jank getting me stuck on a prop, or just me making a dumb mistake.

I might get downvoted for this, but Springtrap really just doesn't seem all that great. Am I missing something, or is he really just steaming dogshit?

Why does everyone say Springtrap's the most balanced killer?
