To Plague mains, what is a thing survivors do that make you laugh inside?

I love when survivors bring in medkits and boons, knowing well they are going to be infected most of the game. Plague is just a huge counter to healing that just makes me laugh knowing well they don't wanna feed onto my power and cleanse.


Another thing I like about plague adds onto survivors not wanting to cleanse. It's just easy injures and an easy 20% thanatophobia value. Paired with pentimento, it's dangerously scary trying to deal with the plague.


if survivors don't cleanse, easy one-hit downs. If they do cleanse, they feed onto one of the most strongest powers in the game and make it an absolute nightmare to deal with. It's just amazing building up pressure with Plague, and her add-ons that make the infection on objects last longer are insane.

    I've been playing plague a lot recently and she's pretty fun.

    Everyone running DH still ticks me off and I end up playing plague M1 most of the round so its eh-

    Regarding your question, seeing the scoreboard at the end is fun because 90% of the survivors bring either good medkits, COH, or Iron Will.

    Tinkerer+Fearmonger is a combo I love, especially with Prayer Tablet.

    Gaming injured against Plague is smart, but as a Legionthusiast, smart asses get stabbed :)

    Especially with COH and iron will. It's complete wastes of perk slots since you're going to be injured all the time and vomiting, giving sound cues to the killer. It's hard facing off a plague who knows what they're doing.

    I never used that build before! I definitely wanna try that out now, especially when you have corrupt purge.

    Good SWFs will decide from the get-go if they wanna be #TeamCleanse or #TeamNeverCleanse, and I find the NeverCleansers to be the toughest to deal with. I just naturally kind of expect my survivors to be comfortable gaming while injured because they have IW and DH, so I choose to accommodate and play around that play style. I just got to make my limited pukes count. Not really hard either, considering the gens are perma-infected

    The build I was running was Corrupt, Tinkerer, Fearmonger and Jolt. Jolt put in a ton of work for me personally.

    I rearely encounter good plagues in game tho. Most of them struggle to get 1 single kill.

    I love playing in ways that make people want to cleanse. Thana is boring as hell so I don't like to use it, but Hysteria is FUN, nothing gets people to cleanse as well as being one shot and not hearing the Tall Woman coming to you. I love Dark Devotion and the rework will be a little better too with her as well. Plaything can be fun but that's a bit too much for obliviousness so I usually run Corrupt and some kind of tracking with it. Never fails me.

    I always find it funny when a 4 medkit COH squad comes in. Or when survivors cleanse, then save an infected teammate. I do die a little inside everytime I play her at a rock loop that I cant hit people around with corrupt purge tho.

    Not a Plague main per se, but she's my second most played.

    Sometimes survivors will try to cleanse a bunch to reset the pools. It'll work against an inexperienced Plague who doesn't realize what's happening. But I just grab 3 grab pools at once if I'm getting close to max. So basically all the survivors did was give me free game delay and pools.
