I need Plague build ideas.

I recently played Plague a lot more, and i want some builds. Fun is more important than viability. I love Plague because many perks that suck on usually everyone else are so good on her.

Here are some of my favorite builds first, the types i usually play with.

Speed Plague:

Play with your food + Machine learning + Game afoot + Nemesis, , a surprisingly powerful build, the difficulty in using it comes from balancing getting and maintaining speed stacks while stopping gens and getting downs. Vile Purge doesn't use up PWYF stacks so exploit the hell out of it.

My brothers favorite build, its Alien Instinct + Furtive Chase + Blood Echo + Hysteria, the crucial add-ons are the Prayer Tablet Fragment and Haematite Seal. His idea was a build that wants to make survivors heal (giving you free corrupt frequently) by stacking annoying effects while going around one-shotting them but also punishing them for curing by having them wait to do anything because the very long infection on gens. I still have no idea how to use this build that effectively but don't underestimate it, these damn antics get him 4k most matches while annoying the hell out of survivors.

    Nurses on Plague? I mean they are not exactly healing much against Plague because of the fountain unless i'm missing something. I guess i can replace it with Floods of Rage. Still a nice build though.

    So fair warning, this is an expensive build, requiring an iridescent addon. It is, however, pretty dang fun, especially on a favourable map.

    So, addons. You can use whatever addon you want alongside it, but the lynchpin of this build is the iridescent "Black Incense" addon, which shows survivor auras for three seconds every time they vomit. This is already pretty ridiculous information... so let's capitalise on it properly, shall we?

    Here's the perk build: Lethal Pursuer, Furtive Chase, Nemesis, fourth perk up to you but I like to slap BBQ in there just for a little extra aura reading. The idea is that you get everyone infected, giving you potent aura reading from the Black Incense and Lethal Pursuer, and then when you hook the Obsession you get stealth to ambush Broken survivors wherever they are. Nemesis swaps the Obsession manually if you need it, applies Oblivious to make being Broken even more threatening, and also gives even more aura reading on top of it all.

    If you're on a favourable map, something like Lery's (or now Hawkins, I guess!), the survivors are constantly vulnerable and consistently have no idea where you are until you're right on top of them. To beat this, survivors need to cleanse more... which empowers you in a different way, giving you access to Corrupt Purge.

    Expensive, but definitely fun.

    I use Nemesis+PWYF too, but honestly... I feel like stacking even MORE speed perks on that is just a gimmick. Maybe try infectious fright and UW to crank up pressure. That way you spend less time looking around and can at LEAST get abit of puke on nearby survivors before picking up.

    I've always liked Hysteria, Pop , Gearhead, Forced Hesitation.

    I've tried to use Machine Learning on her with her Iri gen puke addon but get no value most of the time.

    The trick is learned is to puke on all gens except the ones with Machine Learning when there are multiple healthy survivors still around, it should work like Eruption on multiple gens though.
