I'm making this poll because I'm curious to know what players think about the Pig.

    Buff.

    Pig's core design is fine- in fact, it's pretty good! All she needs is a very slight reduction in the extreme ends of RNG for the RBTs, both to help her out with more consistency and to prevent those annoying matches on the survivor side where you have a hat on forever, and a pretty hefty buff to her stealth portion.

    The way I see it, the RBTs are supposed to be a risk- they might be a ton of slowdown, they might do nothing, they might even get you an instakill. If they do nothing, though, her stealth is supposed to be there as a backup power that's got a far lower ceiling of potential impact, but more consistency. The problem is that her stealth is kind of garbage and Pig players don't seem to use it very much.

    Buff her stealth and even out her RBTs, and she'll be a pretty good killer. Unpopular opinion but she's already a solid C tier killer, she's just too inconsistent.

    Pig needs a buff and possible a consideration made in favor of changing how her ambush works. Right now, it isn't good and no matter how many add-ons they throw at it won't be good as its far too telegraphed. She was the first crouch enabled killer and it shows with clunky transition and could benefit from being brought inline with Ghostface's crouch. I know survivors didn't like it, but Pig being able to directly effect the amount of boxes available to search along with the original tampered timer values just made her feel better to play and fit thematically with the fact that Amanda engineers her games to be near impossible to survive in the movies.

    Pig needs buff to her traps and her ambush. Traps are too inconsistent. And her ambush dash is too short (it lasts two seconds: spirit, on another hand, her phase last 5 seconds). I think, if i could do one change to Pig, i would make 5 boxes spawn and force survivor to do 4 of them everytime (not more not less). That would make her traps consistent and prevent box camping.

    I meant to select "Buff" 😅

    But yeah, Pig's power design is fine. She needs her ambush attack buffed and the RNG nature of her RBT's need work.

    I find her the weakest compared to The Shape and Ghostface. She needs some small buff.
