Is Sadako ever going to get buffed?
It's been, what, six months now? Are we still "waiting to see" if she's ######### or not? Buff her for crying out loud.

I wanted to make the joke that they are still waiting to see. Stole my thunder, Mr. Black.

They said they'll look at her during the Mid-Chapter Patch.
They just didn't say WHICH mid-chapter patch.
If you already bought her, I feel sorry for you.

Patience.
The last mid-chapter would’ve been the one that revisited Sadako, but it got delayed due to the sheer size of what was already slated for that update.

Peanits said that her balance pass is still due, it's just been pushed back.
Soon(tm)

After 6 months one could imagine patience starts running thin. I don't want to wait another 3 months to maybe get a mediocre balance update. Most people knew she was ######### way before the mid-chapter patch right after Sadako. What's taking so long?

BHVR when people ask to buff Sadako:

She has on demand stealth, a teleport and she's short which is a huge advantage in chase. She's fine unless you are a baby killer that doesn't know how to do anything other than walk forward.

Twins and Sadako should be next on the "rework / buffs" roaster like Legion / Ghost Face was.

Tell me you've never played her without telling me you've never played her.
Her stealth is telegraphed by a very obvious lullaby. Her teleport has a 100 second cooldown. She is short and has no chase power, which means you can just throw the damn pallet and there's nothing she can do.

As of now it’s 1 mid-chapter behind the usual pattern. All things considered, that’s not that long.

Not long in BHVR terms but long by any other standard.

Obvious bait is obvious. Have you ever played her?

It's not bait at all, she has the best base kit of all the stealth killers. Faster manifest/demanifest than wraith which means she doesnt slow herself down so much, Wraith with add-ons is still slower than her. She can TP so she's always faster than Wraith and therefore faster than every single stealth killer, the fact she can TP means she has better Hit&Run. The fact she can TP means she has better map control and pressure options. She's shorter and more silent aswell so her aproach is better, her Mindgames can't be deactivated by looking at her like you can look at GF to disable Nightshroud.
And she still has Condemned. Obviously she's not meant to get 4k Condemned kills all the time, same as Pig won't get 4 RBT kills or Pyramid Head won't get 4 Torment Mori kills all the time. All you can say about Condmned is that it could be easier to identify the states of each stack. Keeping track of Condmned can be Tricky but it's very doable with experience.
She honestly doesn't need that manny changes. What other killers can say they have Mindgames, TP, aproach and Slowdown built in + possible Mori!? Pig doesn't have TP and Survivors can Shift W away from the Dash so that makes Pig's Mindgames weaker, plus she's pretty slow crouching and uncrouching. Pyramid Head can't TP or has Slowdown but his anti-loop is much better and Torment kills are possibly easier to pull off. But Wraith ,Myers and GF and most killers can't come close to Sadako's level in terms of possible pressure and mobility.
