    While I deff agree that Mikey needs a buff, Oni and to a lesser degree Plague and Pig also need to work for theirs.


    Mikey has just been left in the past. I don't think the buffs of his need to be drastic, because he's not far off being midtable, but some simple quality of life changes are in order. Remove the distance scaling for stalking, it makes no sense that the most optimal way to stalk someone is to be right on top of them. Buff T1 to 110% speed, but keep the small lunge, and change Scratched Mirror to reduce it back down to 105%. Rather than have survivors "run out" of stalk juice, just have them give stalk at half or quarter speed. Mikey is the only killer in the game that can "run out" of his power, which is silly. It'd be like if Huntress could only reload at each locker once, or Oni could only get 5 litres of blood from each survivor.


    Small things like this should at least make him more enjoyable to play. Though in the other direction, Tombstone Chunk definitely needs to be changed. The fact that you can just kill any survivor on your first T3 with little drawback is stupid strong for a purple, and is ridiculous balance-wise.

    -Major- buffs. Mikey is just awful in the current state of the game.

    He's bottom 5 worst in the game so of course he needs buffs.

    Shape being able to one shot survivors is too strong, in tier 3 when he hits a survivor they should heal a health state instead.


    On a serious note, is this even a question. Of course he needs a buff.

    And a pretty heavy handed buff at that.

    Needs his stalk limit per player removed. (Using the weakest players to take down the stronger ones is suppose to be his thing)

    Return his ability to multi-stalk. (He should be rewarded for catching multiple survivors out of position)

    Increase his stalk gained from further away. (More rewarding for skilled plays)

    I don't like how Survivors have a cap on how much you can stalk them. Makes it unfun to play against hyper immersed players who do nothing but hide all game.
