Kinda regret buying Saw Chapter for Pig killer
I just buy saw chapter and play as pig in purple rank. My opinion about him "She is so weak."
Trap can easily removed on first try. Many people still do gen rush even with trap in their head and after 1 gen done the trap activated and just that time he search for jigsaw boxes and release the trap in first try ( not even stall the game little bit )
Her power only m1 killer and crouch dash, while other killer which not licensed is more superior than her In terms of killer power ( doctor , spirit , Oni , gunslinger )
My opinion pig in C or D rank killer. Any idea from Devs team to buff this killer ? or how about your opinion about her guys ?

I just bought her and think she can be really fun. Definitely not A+ tier or whatever but she has never been said to be on high tiers..
Jigsaw boxes can be lucky of course, but I never even noticed on which try they get removed, but knowing the survivor side I can guarantee you it is as often on last try as it is on first try. It’s RNG and therefore not super reliable.

Detective Tapp is worth it even if the pig is useless. Stakeout and Detective's Hunch are some of my favorite perks.

Pig's good fun when you know what to do, and I've wrecked 2 Reds, a Purple and a Brown while I'm a Green rank killer, but she relies more on people A) Not being part of an SWF, B) Not strictly being in high ranks, as she performs better in the chaos of lower ranks and C) a thorough understanding on how to use her kit.
I've also been playing her pretty consistently for a year now and I still have games where I get wrecked. You need perks and a good game sense to start with.

"not even stall the game little bit"
well, it was stalled a little bit. Not much, but still a bit.
What Perks did you use?
Otherwise, look at the Link provided, Scorpionz is a godlike Pig Player (and in general a Killer Main worth to watch since he is good at the game but not bitching when he loses), there is a lot of useful stuff in his guide.

pig requires a lot situational awareness to be played efficiently at high ranks but the one thing she does have is a built in match slow down, even if they get the traps of first time that was time spent not doing gens. she also has access to short wall loop mind games that other m1 killers don't have thanks to the dash (just crouch and start to dash one way but immediately swap and go the other) she takes a lot of practise but she can do well

Every M1 killer..? Doctor is not C or D tier, neither is Trapper (with the right perks). Hag, Myers, Ghostface, all killers who aren't even that bad as long as you aren't a potato killer. Pig is not in C or D tier either.
Maybe you think she's bad because you are inexperienced. Pig is actually a really underrated killer and for that reason I think most survivors underestimate her. You can do some very nice mind-games with her ambush that other killers simply can't. Never underestimate hiding your red light whenever you want. I would 100% recommend the YouTube link above to Scorpionz' Pig guide as I watched it the other day and found it extremely useful. He's an amazing Pig player. Her Jigsaw boxes always slow down the game no matter what, as long as you're using them. Yeah they might pop 1 gen before going to take them off, but now they are FORCED to go waste some time doing so. Whether they get it on the first try or not, that's slowing the game down. Also, 3 times out 4 it's not the first time. People who say survivors ALWAYS get it off first go are exaggerating to fit their "Pig is a bad killer" agenda, which simply isn't true. She's not top tier with Nurse, Spirit or Billy but she isn't weak either.

What does region have to do with anything? The game is the same no matter where you're playing from... Doc is great at countering loops (if you use his shock correctly), Trapper and Hag perform very well around 3-4 gens (use Corrupt Intervention to help your set-up) with great map control, Myers and Ghostface are great stealth killers with 1 shot downs for stalking (they're not top tier but definitely above C with the right perks). I've already explained Pig as well. The only killers I would say that are giving you a huge disadvantage are Leatherface and Clown. We can include Wraith if you're not playing with the OP add-ons. Other than those, if you're good enough as a killer, it's always possible to 3-4k.

Yep. I mean don't get me wrong, I love Pig. She's one of my favorite killers. Tapp is great though. All three of his perks are useful. Stakeout, especially since the update, works for great skill checks and to know if a killer is in your area, like a pseudo-spine chill. Detective's Hunch lets you find chests & totems with ease. Tenacity is good for crawl recovery on it's own, but paired with Unbreakable it's an easy escape from a slugger.
Because I like Pig and love Tapp's skills, I find it to be one of the better DLC's.

Pig takes a lot of skill to master especially in red ranks. You should watch the pig guide that was linked here. My normal strategy is trapping early to slow down the game. I also like sneaking up from an unsuspected angle for maximum scare and a hit. I use monitor and abuse + whispers to hide my terror radius in time by crouching so the survivors have no clue I'm coming. Using dash properly is hard I'm still learning, don't give up on it though since dash has the potential to be very useful.
And if you want head pops caused by the reversed beartrap you should use her dirty add ons: tampered timer + jigsaw's sketch. Survivors don't have enough time to search all the jigsaw boxes before it's too late. I like that strategy but it's definitely not fun for survivors so I don't use it often. After one trap pops observant survivors know what your doing and stop doing gens to prevent an active trap. They focus on getting the trap off before the timer starts. Therefore you need to shift your attention to chasing them off the jigsaw boxes instead of gens. So they will either do gens and die from the trap or don't do gens and die on the hook. It's dirty gameplay imo but can be extremely fun to do now and then.

The way that your RBT works is that each one has a key assigned to it, and each key is placed in one of the boxes. If a survivor gets it off first try, it means they just chose the right box on the first try.

You need to play a killer more than a few times to even know if they're good.
And besides, Pig has been out for like two years or something. You easily could have researched her and found out if you'd like her play style.

She can be really good training your m1 game with traps buying you time and potentially remove a survivor all together. I wouldn't say she is weak but more so inconsistent.

my piggy is a way of life. She has one of the most important things these days, match slowdown. Her addons are pretty decent and regardless if it takes 1 time or 3 times to take the mask off. That is wasted time which is very valuable.
She has a pretty situational mind game which if used right saves you time.
You can do a slow tbag, and hearing a jigsaw box laugh at a fail is oh so sweet.
The beartrap also have a placebo effect of panic on some survivors.

Even as a Pig main, I still feel a sense of urgency when it comes to removing an RBT. But that mainly comes from the "YOU IDIOTS >:0" that comes after the team pops a generator, rather than the "YOU IDIOTS XD" of being Pig.

She still weak in my eyes, but I still love playing as her. Hopefully some day the devs change stance on her and give her some much-appreciated buffs.
