Plague...

I have been playing a lot of plague recently, and found that most of my games, people didn't cleanse. I get that feeding a killer her power can be super scary, but I found that most of my games I end up with 4k's without ruin because of this.

In purple and green ranks, I had a lot harder of a time, because people cleansed and it was troublesome because having to walk sometimes a far distance for your power can sometimes end up with generators without pressure.

How do you guys feel about it? To cleanse or not to cleanse?

Also, wanted to throw in here, games with Plague are very unrewarding to both killer and survivor. Especially if Plague never gets her power. 200 BP for hitting a fully ill survivor is barely noticeable. I get that if you hit with your power, you get more, but most games I end up never getting my Corrupt Purge. In addition to Plague herself not getting BP's, survivors are deprived of many altruism points because of it (no healing).

Just some things I've noticed which make playing Plague feel very unrewarding in the BP aspect.

    I think it totally depends on the killer. For me the Plague has one of the most difficult range attacks. Somehow the puke flies at 120%ms so you need to find open areas like bubba needs to start the chainsaw, except that a tree is also a secure obstacle against the Plague.

    Might just be me but I'm having problems with the puke often, and with that, the power is simply not that much of a boost, I'm just able to get the free hits on pallets. And that is also the reason why I start cleansing when I notice a Plague doesn't aim very well. Just be extra aware of your surroundings so you know where the short loops are to dodge the puke.

    There is also a problem with emblems. Not her only, but somehow you are punished if survivors don't heal because you inflict less hits. When using the puke or insta down too often with Myers for example, you have problems on the Chaser emblem. But I think as this is not a game breaker, this will not be adressed too early :/
