I'm super jealous as Artist main

I have been on this forum for more than two years and have never seen a post like "Artist is op", "Nerf Artist". All i see is Blight this, Blight that, Blight, Wesker, Blight, Blight...

While I understand that she is a very rare character in games, and Blight is one of the most popular, that's why this happens, I don't understand why people don't complain about her at all? Are there so few good Artist mains?

I know it's a hot take, but in my tierlist Artist is third strongest killer and probably will be second after Blight will get his addons nerf. No, it doesn't mean she needs any nerfs, she is literally perfect imo, but...

CAN SOMEONE COMPLAIN ABOUT ARTIST HERE PLEASE?

    generally speaking I think most people only consider artist opee or whatever when they use the boring place crow at the other side of the loop strats and force people to leave loops

    I think we see a lot less complaints about her because of the two reasons below that the top two killers have

    1. She does not phase through walls
    2. She does not have hug tech/broken addons

    Most complaints on this forum mean that the killer is capable of at least something in the chase. And i don't believe she will get any nerfs, because there is no complaints about her at all and many people think she is C tier or something. Forum crying about Blight 3 years and he is only about to get some adjustments.

    This post is 70% of interest in why no one talks about her at all and 30% of joke, so don't take it so seriously.

    About 10-20% of hits with crows i give even without being in chase, walls, windows and pallets barely mean anything to me.

    Blight's hug tech is one of the most predictable things in the game, he doesn't ignore windows or pallets.

    Still don't understand.

    She is not op, but she is one of the dumbest, most boring killer to face. The reason not many complain about her is that she is not common at all. On top of that, most Artist players are just bad and only play her occasionally. If everybody would play Artist and would play on high level, she would be the most hated killer right after Dull merchant.

    You welcome.

    I personally have the same reason in my head, cause i saw good Artist player only once in my survivor games.

    There are not many Artist threads. But I think she is an OK killer.

    In case you encounter few of a particular killer type that usually means you find one who is pretty strong with them.

    Using Artist is great but here crows can easily be countered with the use of lockers. And while crows are great for hurting survivors during loops a lot of time is wasted in chases even with them.

    I haven't had a single Artist match in months.

    Well I'm always ready to list her on my top hated killers to verse since she's as unengaging as knight. At least I can recognize that unlike knight, artist leaves room for some actual skilled plays: predicting survivor pathings for crossmap snipes, knowing how to use terrain levels with crows, stuff like that + she's a lot more macro than most people think. Good artists for example constantly harass survivors on gens while chasing someone else, something that I see done very rarely when versing them

    Sucks that most artist players just play her in the most cheesy boring way. Shut loops with crow, camp hook with DMS

    Well, sure. I can tell you why.

    1. She's rare. Really rare. Notice that Nurse complaints were on the DL until her recoding that made her feel good to play again? People only care about what they actually verse. Before her, it was Spirit. Blight's the current target. Not saying they were unjustified, but it's a pattern.

    2. She's pretty subdued. Her add-ons look tame at a glance, her power--- while uninteractive for survivors--- doesn't scream OP immediately, and there's very few Artist mains showcasing her full potential.

    You mean use her power? That is like complaining about hillbilly curving at loops. Or Clown throwing bottles at loops. Or Trapper placing traps at loops.

    I'm not bothered by her. I usually die against her but she's not oppressive, I can usually have a decent game against her.

    I did complain back in a days, about her lore. Her lore is complete laughable trash.

    But she looks absolutely gorgeous and she's very strong. Still love crow-mommy.

    If survivors aren't complaining about you... do you even matter? 😏

    The majority of people consider that to be why artist is awful to play against

    a sniping artist who is super good is more entertaining and scary

    Let me just say this as a fellow Artist main and a retired Spirit main. I used to be the biggest Spirit simp on this forum for a long time (some people probably still see me as that) and I was around when Spirit was by far the most hated killer. It is not something enjoyable knowing that your favorite killer could one day get nerfed because of all the complaints. Thankfully her eventual nerf didn’t hurt her that much but still.

    Artist is my favorite killer to play at the moment and I would rather her not get hated. She’s a lot of fun to play as and against right now to me and none of us Artist enjoyers want that to change.

    I always snipe as Artist and do the anti loop part a ton less than most. I hope you can one day face my Artist 😄

    I totally agree. I didn't intend to ask for any changes, as I have already written here many times. Just curious why people are silent about her, when she is stronger than many killers mentioned here way more often.

    Finally!!! Now i can have a restful sleep at nights. Thanks, mate!

    She is strong killer but nothing op about her.

    But she is boring , so even she is top tier killer i am not going to play her.

    Most artist players simply aren't good. They only use the crows for anti loop instead of cross map snipes, which may not be very engaging to play against but it's not op. She doesn't have broken add ons, she doesn't ignore core gameplay mechanics and she has no crazy bugs she can exploit. She is not weak at all, but also nothing special. Plus, her pick rate is rather low, so people aren't facing her that often.

    Although i really like artist, i fear Behavior might her the Billy treatment someday, as she is always regarded as one of the strongest killers in the game. Maybe this never happens because of the lower pickrate and she is kinda of an ok killer

    Lets see what the future holds for her.

    because she requires a lot of mastery of the power to perform very well. I don't think her skill floor is exceptionally high at all, but her skill ceiling definitely is, and a lot of her real, "top 5 worthy" power is at that ceiling. a lot of people don't care much to practice it, and she's already not super common as-is, so artist just doesn't get many complaints.

    I mean a good Artist is incredibly-strong and would garner massive amounts of hate. Thankfully almost nobody actually plays her.

    Don't worry, they'll come for you when other things are getting nerfed because of complaints.
