Mmr, farming, and Houndmaster
Houndmaster wasnt much of a favorite of mine when she first launched. It was tough to get her adept at the time. The dog's ai was very buggy and hard to control.
Lately these days however i go to try playing as her and end up absolutely obliterating the people im against (without tunneling or camping). Im guessing that has to do with mmr due to not playing her in so long.
But during this event its like the people i go against last 4-10 seconds in chase and nearly every round ive got everyone on deathhook By 5 or 4 generators. And then start to feel bad and start farming with them for the rest of the match.
But its to a point where im consistantly getting these 5 second chase groups, because i keep feeling bad and letting people go lol. If mmr was based on hooks id probably be going up in difficulty.
Was houndmaster's bugs fixed recently as i currently haven't experienced any that she used to have, and the controls seem much easier, did she also get buffs?

She got some buffs a month after her launch.
Old bugs are gone, new ones have risen…I’m p100 with her and trust…play her enough, your mmr will change. It’ll no longer be a stomp.
She still needs a lot of love and qol for sure. Hopefully they will give that to her.
From speaking with other Houndmaster mains outside of her bugs her biggest frustration is the dog. We want him to pull survivors back to her coordinates again not what it does now due to it often just leading to snug pulling them into a pallet.
Addon adjustments would be nice too.2 -
Ah i know what you mean by pulling towards the pallets, ive just been lucky with getting people that drop the pallet while still standing on my side with the dog lol. My main is xeno and hes definitely at that mmr where you hesitate to pick them because you know its likely going to be tough to play.
I suppose i should just start finnishing these people off for their own sake lol

Play her in normal queue not Bloodmoon. Bloodmoon has far easier survivors, which I explain here.

I find her more useable lately than before because dog doesnt get stuck on every root or corner but the pulling thing is kinda nuts it makes survivors to control the dog more than dog to control them and its not rare for them to get into pallet.
Currently I would say even pinheads chain is more reliable than dog now.

Agreed. Mr Snug needs to pull back to her again. The pull strength is so weak. It’s a cane corso not karen terrior. 😅

I'm P100 Houndmaster explayer and she's not very entertaining once you play against those type of survivors just standing in pallet so you can't use your power on them.
