Plague is S tier now because of COH?

I haven't even lost a game with her, on a 5 streak now in red ranks. Granted i am running Hex plaything, ruin, undying, and pentimento to slow games down drastically, but the fact they don't even consider using boons because her power is a direct counter to them, really shows how 1 perk has essentially changed the game.

I don't really see this as a good thing as plague is kinda boring tbh. I think the best solution is to just make Pentimento able to destroy boons instantly. Can't see how this kinda unbalance is healthy for DBD.

    s tier... she's annoying, but s tier not at all... she can deny CoH, that's true, but she remain a pure m1 killer with no map pressure IF survivors won't cleanse, easy loopable... also you will be surprised how much easy is to avoid her red puke...

    No. She's A tier because the infection speed power crept her. You just need to proxy hooks and you will force survivors to cleanse giving you free corrupt fountains.

    Plague isnt stronger JUST because of CoH...Shadowstep is a very strong boon that Plague also counters.

    When they did her addon pass I binged Prayer Tablet Plague for a long time and went on like a bajillion long winstreak. Shes so much fun, its a shame that people can't stand playing her.

    I dontthink it's an issue as to how she easily counters the most abused crutch in the game, it's simplythe nature of this party game; you never know what each side is playing, so theres a ton of Rock Paper Scissors.

    Doc counters a lot of stealth builds for example. Nothing you can do but laugh about it.

    She's still a killer with very limited mobility,a good Plague can be very hard to deal with tho.

    Plague was always A-Tier. After QoL changes, she is better now. And no, she is high A+ even without CoH.

    I personally feel like whatever the survivors do, I am okay with. Not sure if other people feel the same way or not.

    i guess but there are certain situations where u need your team. Against pinhead in your in chase and no one is willing to do the box your screwed. Same with plague if they cleanse a lot. I had a Meg in one match where she would touch a gen that was infected and then she would cleanse and then touch it again🤦‍♂️

    the first chase against her is important since she doesnt have her red puke unless she goes for it... but sometimes the red puke can be at the other side of survivors. she is not strong, she is very decent but coordianted groups destroy her, thats why she will never be s tier but A tier at most... solo stomper indeed but most killers can stomp uncordinated survivors...

    I've been running Brutal Strength on her to get rid of the pallets ASAP and have seemed to have a good effect from it.

    Once you remove the safe pallets the survivors go full-on fear mode because they don't know how to loop a plague if they've used their deadhard.

    No. That's like saying Bubba or any of the insta down killers are S tier because they don't care about COH either.
