Blight is high skill cap with low reward
So, all day I've been hearing people say 'Just wait for people to master him, then we can see how good he is' or 'With x addon, eh can be good!'
The issue lies in WHY you would spend time learning him. Obviously many people (including myself) play to have fun and not just optimal, but his power is just so janky and unrewarding for using it. His M1s aren't basic attacks so it doesn't work qith insta down perks, indoor maps are a nightmare for him and other things I wont go into since this isnt about his power being eh
I fully believe he has an 'infinite' skill ceiling like Nurse, but the issue is even if you do master him, his power is underwhelming that is it even worth getting past all the issues to land an M1 attack?
And no, if you have to use addons to make him playable (looking at you ghostface) he is a bad killer. I REALLY hope I'm wrong and people find out he is decent, but the time it takes to learn him honestly looks like it could be spent with another killer with much better results
I'm not calling him bad killer, its been less than 24 damn hours, but his power just doesnt seem rewarding to spend to long to learn

hmm not calling him bad but calling him bad i see. Also you don't need add-ons to make ghostface "good" you just have to play him a certain way. I don't think the killer is amazing or bad i think he's fun to play.

Oh yeah I agree Blight is fun to play, but eventually his pwoer just got frustrating with how limiting in so many ways it is that it drains more fun than it should

Apparently his power swings are M1s somehow. At least STBFL is telling me that.

Watch that get changed like they did with ambush and feral frenzy

I mean nurse's swings after her power are M1s too. And deathslinger swing after feeling too. Dunno.

Hes actually quite rewarding imo... hes got a sky's the limit potential like you said and hes fun AF.

I've been playing without addons all day and winning most of my matches at rank 1. The reason you would spend time learning how to use him is because he is Fun. As. All. Heck.
It is IMMENSELY satisfying bouncing off of 4 different walls to hit someone at a loop they thought was safe. Even if you don't get the hit boinking your way around the map is just a goofy good time.
