Let $\mathfrak{ q}>2$ be a prime number, $\chi$ a primitive Dirichlet character modulo $\mathfrak{ q}$ and $f$ a primitive holomorphic cusp form or a Hecke-Maass cusp form of level $\mathfrak{ q}$ and trivial nebentypus. We prove the subconvex bound $$ L(1/2,f\otimes \chi)\ll \mathfrak{ q}^{ 1/2-1/12+\varepsilon}, $$ where the implicit constant depends only on the archimedean parameter of $f$ and $\varepsilon$. The main input is a modifying trivial delta method developed in [1].
