Which Killer Would Be Better To Learn- Nurse or Blight
They are both high mobility killers and can end chases fast, which are the two things I’m most concerned about when picking my new main. I just hit rank 1 for the first time with M1 killers and I want to eventually main one of these two once I have enough blood points to get a build on one of them. If you were in my position and didn’t have much experience with either of them yet which one would you choose to play extensively/main and why?

Unless you run addons every match, Nurse mobility is limited on large flat maps. You are actually faster with other killers.
Spirit would be easier than either of them.

Play both of them. I main Hillbilly, but that’s like 20% of the time. The mix up is what keeps the game fresh.

Nurse is considered the second strongest killer to most people, some say strongest, so if ur going for that is say nurse, blight is only really strong if you use an exploit to cheese some hits

Nurse is the strongest. This is honestly nothing to discuss.
@Topic:
If you want to learn the Killer and have endurance, Nurse. She is the strongest Killer in the game and basically busted. But, if you just want to main a good Killer, go for Blight. IMO it is not really worth to learn Nurse anymore, there are many alternatives to play which might not be as strong as her, but will win you most of the games.
Learning Nurse might have been more needed in 2016/2017, because Survivors had really strong stuff and there were not many Killers strong enough, but times have changed.

If you want to dominate every game without the survivors being able to do anything, Nurse for sure. For me, I like Blight better because he may be a very strong killer but he’s also got reasonable counterplay. J-flick kind of gets rid of that but they have said they are removing it.

If you want to win with no sense of humor, Nurse.
If you want to win and chuckle the whole time while spreading smiles to the dying, Blight.

I wouldn't really say that nurse has high mobility, but just an incredibly strong power.
I would suggest you play Nurse if you want to get good with her so all survivors will never escape.
I would suggest you play Blight if you think running around at mach 5 while smacking survivors is fun.

Blight has more potential right now and is around nurse tier but they want to cripple him from nurse tier to spirit tier but he is still probably the most fun choice

The answer is: the one you enjoy more. Nurse is in the base game. So, if you're masochist enough, try to play her until you get decent (usually, we enjoy what we're good at) and see if that appeals to you.
Blight is easier to pick up. So, it might be the better choice if you don't want to endure the Nurse boot camp.
It's worth noting that they're both buggy killers. That's something you should consider carefully.

I'd recommend Blight since imo he's much more fun than nurse. If your going to learn nurse, be prepared to face tons of bugs and frustrations with her power.

Nurse is the strongest killer. Hands down but she is very buggy and the devs appear to have zero intentions of fixing her.

Nurse is easier to learn, harder to play. Blight is harder to learn, easier to play. Both are difficult killers though, I'd say Blight because learning him is a lot more fun than learning Nurse but they're both fun killers.

I think you'll just have to play them both and see which one you'd rather play though if you want the killer who is better at 4k'ing then go with nurse

After reading all the comments I’ve decided I’m gunna level up blight first and maybe later learn nurse. If I’m going for all out power paired with mobility I’ll probably just give spirit a shot later, but I want my next main to have a high skill cap, which blight has more of than spirit IMO. Plus I know survivors hate spirit and I would like to main someone who is fun for survivors to go against too. Plus I’m beginning to realize I really like blight’s aesthetic, especially with the sophisticated slaughter outfit.

Nurse is about the only Killer in the game that, when I hear that wail for the first time in a match, I'll groan audibly. A well-played Nurse who has mastered the Blink is nothing short of lethal. Most will not survive....just because we see so little of the Nurse, the lion's share of Survivors have no idea how to even begin to juke one. I'm better than average at it, I'd say, but still, a good Nurse will get me over 50% of the time.

Survivors enjoy going against killers they can beat. If you become good with any killer, don't expect survivors to enjoy going against you.

Nurse is arguably the best killer in the game, S tier power which is theoretically impossible to counter if you play her perfectly.
Blight however, is an S tier on the fun scale. His addons in general are a lot more fun than the Nurse's too. That being said, Blight still isn't weak, he has great mobility.
I would choose Blight if I were in your shoes, because he's more fun to paly, and more forgiving if you mess up with him imo.

Once you know how to blink and have a basic understanding of her gameplay, Nurse is much, much easier and you will destroy 90% of your opponents without even trying.
Blight is a lot harder but a lot fairer because he actually has counterplay and a lot of his power comes from the fact that he has the best mobility in the game, however most people seem to think Nurse is okay to have no counterplay so they'll probably give you a medal.

Nurse if you want to win, but I find her kind of lackluster. Blight is much more fun, for me.

Kinda sorta but not really, I played a solid 5 month span of blight from release until I took a break and only had 2 games where all gens got done and survivors left out the exit gates, every other match besides those 2 games was a 4k or 3k with hatch since I usually don't slug for 4k
I probably played around 400-500 games in that span and did brutally well every single time since those first 2 games where I was still getting used to blight and getting perks

Either or. I started with Blight and after that I started playing Nurse I eas able to pick her up relatively quick. Both have a very similar skill set of survivor prediction.

The Exploit isn't what makes him strong. He's a very good killer, especially with specific Add-Ons. He very useable and effective on Console.
Also, the Nurse literally ignores most all Survivor tools to deal with Killers. There is no debate, The Nurse is the strongest Killer in the game.

Both nurse and blight are fun to learn and play but blight is alot more fun than nurse tbh. Nurse can be frustrating to play as because her blinking can be stopped with the smallest pixel on the game. Shes also slower than survivors so you can't just go up to them to m1 them.

This is a lot harder than you think.
They're both surprisingly similar in power, get neutered by cramped maps like Lery's, are very difficult to learn, and have pretty buggy powers.
There's no easy way to suggest. I'd recommend Blight, simply because he's easier to pick up. If you're bad at Nurse, you're worthless. If you're bad at Blight, you're still a 115% killer who can play the game normally.
Of course, Blight is a somewhat map dependent killer. You're going to need to memorize the hitboxes and collision zones of every map at every angle, not dissimilar to Huntress.
Nurse isn't terribly map dependent, although there are a few that any Nurse player could write long rants about.
Add-on are.... okay, yeah, this goes to Blight. His add-ons are absurdly good. Nurse's range from useless to decent because they turn her into Old (base) Nurse.
Really, you just need to feel them both out and see which you like best. They're too similar in too many ways while dissimilar in a few notable ways.

Unless you're willing to dedicated a TON of hours learning all the bugs and work arounds for nurse, learn blight instead.
Your mental health will thank you.

Blight provides tools to let me express my skill, if you want the opportunity to make you skill have a direct impact on matches blight is a good medium

Blight is more fun, both are buggy as hell. Nurse is the stronger killer.
Blight's learning curve is easier albeit not as boundless.
Just don't become a jerk like some blight mains seem to become.

I personally enjoy blight way more and found learning to play him more enjoyable, but to each their own.

Just play both and then decide who suits your playstyle the most.
If this didn't help then you should go with blight he seems to be more fun and powerful (nurse is still stronger but that's just my opinion)
