Hate to say it, but Blight wasn't weak JUST due to collision.

So cool, you fixed his collision a bit.

Sad to say, his base power is still...not good y'know? It's ping pong machine, I'm not sure why anyone says the ability to hit people in his power is strong. Any loop shuts that down immediately.

Any turn. Any main building. What's going on here?

    Can you relax and see that zoning the survivor into the right side (especially on pallet loops) will 100% guarantee you a hit when they try to transition to a new tile because how fast the mobility is? The exception to this is when 2 pallet loops spawn next to a jungle gym within 8m of each other but in that case you were screwed on 90% of other killers anyway.


    P.s. It's day 1 - literally hours since full release and you're most likely spamming your power when you shouldn't due to lack of experience with him. Imagine any other killer where you just spam their power without rhyme or reason and see how "suboptimally" you play them as well. Give it a week at least then we'll be happy to jump in on the Blight hate train if he is indeed unreasonably weak

    I like him, he looks fun, have not gotten the chance to play him but as long as I am having fun I am fine with him.

    I mean everyone complained Deathslinger was weak and he needed to be changed, and look where we are. They demand him nerfed. Give it a month. 'NERF Blight!' will come!

    Yeah its the same every patch, I remember there were people in the forum saying "PH is bad! he has no map pressure!" and now he turns out to have one of the best chase powers in the game.

    Yes, but Deathslinger is still weak. The only reason these nerfs are wanted is because people can't loop a killer who's power counters loops

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

    The Blight's power is objectively bad at loops especially without the power to break pallets while in his rush.

    The fact that so many people are claiming that he is weak is more telling of the average skill level of Killers on these forums than anything xD

    That's all.

    Okay sir what magically makes him good, is it the fact that he can't use his power to deal with pallets, or That his power sucks on maps that are too open and maps that are too claustrophobic, but please tell me what I am missing because I see no reason to pick this killer over the litany of other killers in the game because other killers do what he does, but better.

    even my miserable butt hasn't written him off yet. Just gonna ease into it. Pay attention to others using him in games as well. there is potential but you gotta get the hang of it

    Buy him with shards and get his perks and forget about him, thats what I did.

    I don't think he's weak but i hate how he plays and I hate how his fov is lower than Hag's despite being at eye level with Ghostface or Legion.

    Shattered monocle is overpowered.

    What the Blight needs is better turning for his lunge so he can actually punish people that are outpositioned. I don't think this change would be too much either as Oni can practically flick better the Blight currently and Oni has an insta down. I don't think any other changes are necessary though.

    So far all i'm doing is playing an m1 killer with a dash to make travelling between gens easier, hes not actually that bad just with the mobility. But forget actually getting hits reliably, if you have enough space to try and use your dash, then you are normally far enough from a window or pallet to just catch up to them and hit them normally anyway. It feels useless. If it was harder to hit but could 1-shot, then mabye, but for just getting 1 health state its not worth the risk of being dodged and turned around.
