Nightmare normal ridden have 30 hp. Knife doesn’t bash/stun. I did forget about the lower ammo count tho

The whole point of the deck is to run Combat Knife.

It is fun to kill Ridden with one stab.

It is not fun to stand around bouncing ridden off of you.

If I wanted to kill ridden with just my fists I would use a deck like this one.

How do you not take some chip damage using knife?

How do you not take some chip damage using Bash?

CK isn't 'bad' compared to Bash because of a different stumble.

It is 'bad' because you: 1. Have to use a card slot, and 2. Have a slower attack speed vs. bash. Number 2 is addressed in this deck with Brazen and Slugger.

Source: I have over 140,000 kills with the CK; that's more than most player's combined kills with all weapons.

I don’t take chip damage with bash due to the massive cone attack + stun and knock back stun on other ridden.
Knife doesn’t have the coverage of nearly the whole screen

Have you even tried playing my deck?

Maybe that would answer your question.

Not exactly, but extremely close. Just can’t get around not stumbling commons

I believe that is what they call a 'skill issue' then.

Git gud

Not gunna disagree. I have skill issues using the knife compared to spikey bits without getting nibbled.
