For this example, we got: The Pig

How good do you rate her at sacrificing all 4 Survivors?

    Maybe it's because of her RNG involved in her Killer Power, or maybe it's the way she uses stealth amongst stealth Killers, but i just can't think of her as a strong Killer.

    Not weak, but not strong.

    Revert the changes, BHVR, please. She was such a good killer before the nerfs.

    Pros:

    • Amanda has a stealth mode, allowing her to get the jump on people.
    • In addition to just getting the jump on people, Amanda's Ambush gives her an extended lunge.
    • If the Survivors are overly altruistic, they won't finish gens while a RBT is on someone, but this is REALLY rare to see.
    • RNG can completely screw Survivors over.

    Cons:

    • While in stealth, Amanda has no POV. Good luck finding people down there.
    • It is pretty rare for RBTs to be an actual threat. More than not, they are just a minor inconvenience.
    • RNG can completely screw Amanda over.

    Amanda is tricky to place. If RNG is consistently on your side, she's really good. If not, she's garbage. I've been on both ends. I like her, but this is another case of fun over effective.

    A great QoL change to Pig's stealth ability would be to give her 105% movement speed while crouched instead of the current speed that's slower than survivors while running. A major part of Ghost Face and Wraith's stealth is their speed, and they should be faster than Pig's movement since she has other parts to her kit like the dash and traps, but I think a subtle boost would be nice. I don't find myself using her stealth component very often since map pressure is so crucial in this game.
