    Leatherface. He has an instadown, with p3 outfit and Claudette's face you are pretty stealthy at long distance, and he's very powerful against low/medium skill survivors. Against good survivors you will need his best build and add-ons.

    Hag : better than Billy against teams without flashlights and Object of Obsession, especially on certain maps ( The Game, Lery's, Haddonfield, Disturbed Ward, Badham Preschool ).

    Plague : better than Myers, because besides an instant down, she can also get a really opressive range attack and she also counters some of the survivors perks ( Adrenaline, Iron Will, Self Care, Solidarity, We'll Make It, Botany Knowledge ), unlike Myers.

    Pig : she isn't low tier for God sake.

    Leatherface, people underestimate him a lot, he may be a worse billy but when used right his chainsaw can be extremely opressive

    With 3 PWYF tokens he becomes almost unstoppable

    Hag for sure. I think most people are quick to dismiss her because they aren’t sure of her high skill cap. Map pressure, Area of Control, Running Lanes: from unhook to loop, loop to loop, T/L Wall to loop, chokehold to Window, etc. Hook mind games (where you place an unlikely trap from a distance or sometimes near a hooked survivor), Chokehold hooks, Pallet mind games with the Hag Phantasm.. Just so much to really think about. She’s so good!!! Only counter? More than 1 sometimes even 2 flashlights. Flashlights can allow you to have to make adjustments on trap placement,but it isn’t detrimental. 3 or 4 flashlights will make the game extremely hard (I’d imagine, but I’ve never versed or even seen more than 2. MAYBE I’ve versed 3 ONCE, never as hag ), but when are you ever going to verse that? Good survivors aren’t going 4man flashlights lol.

    Trapper. He can make an entire area a deadspace. every loop pallet and chokepoint will become inaccessible to the survivors. Has huge snowball effect potential
