The Plague's Power?

The plague is difficult. I can't seem to do good with her even in lower ranks. Her power does nothing to help me. I honestly think it is easier hitting them twice vs using her power. I think I will just go back to using a better killer called Michael Myers. Any suggestions?

    She was okayish in the PTB, now they nerfed her. There was only one viable tactic with her - hold the power, move with it, find a surv then puke him into broken state and down.


    Now you can't do that. Now you need to puke on survivors (which does nothing) and hope they use a fountain (which they rarely do).


    When they use the fountain you can use it too to gain Corruption which lasts 1 minute. During this time you need to down a survivor (who is probably hiding).


    Enjoy.

    I mean you can still do the same strategy sort of.

    Basically you aren't going to just be randomly walking around with vile charge. But what you want to do is get closeish to them in a chase and then start puking. Probably do non-full pukes on them mid chase. Particularly at pallets and windows. That will get them broken and leave you loser than if you just hit them normally. Then you can just chase them and M1 them like usual for the down

    That has been my experience except in the lower ranks they do cleans. Even still I have trouble with her and I am an experienced killer. Michael got me to rank 1 before the ranking system was updated. By the way I play console.
