The Blight is really bad.
Just saying it, he's really bad. His power is good for getting places but it's so incredibly easy too juke because he literally can't turn while Lethal Dashing. Even if he could any pallet or window completely counters him because he has too stop his power, then break the pallet, and in that time you've gone too another pallet. Even if they're in the open the actual dash will slide off most angled walls instead of colliding with them, so you loose the survivor because you can't turn. it also doesn't help his M1 is buggy and doesn't connect when it should half the time.
He needs his ultra rare addon where he breaks pallets on impact in order to be even close too good. If he broke pallets on Lethal Rush and had the ability to turn his attacks like Oni he would be an amazing killer, but ATM he's just too frustrating to play.

Is it? So far the only game that I lost was a 2k, the other 2 escaped death on hook on red forest.
I know survivors play different but he ain't so bad, he is fun to play as the only thing I dislike is his low turning when using the rush, feels like he has a 45° angle.

What rank are you playing in? Because in red ranks he's pretty much useless. If any survivor has ever figured out how to stop Billy then they'll have 0 trouble against Blight. He's too addon dependent and even with his best addons he's still gonna struggle. He'll be untouched in a week if the devs don't mega buff him.

Atm rank 1, and haven't had issues at all.

The only issues he has are is really low POV and his lunge when rushing

I've Been winning most of my matches at rank 1. I hate to keep repeating this, but I'll say it yet again: it's still Day 2. He's a high skill level killer. Much like all the other high skill level killers it's gonna take some time to settle in with the character. It was the same with Billy. And nurse. And Spirit. And Huntress. And Oni. And Deathslinger. Right now we're all using his ability with reckless abandon, testing it to see qhat its limitations are. But using it at appropriate moments is going to be key to playing this killer well.
Also, he's just FUN. I'm sorry if you find him frustrating, but Im having a blast boinking from place to place. Live the dream, buddy.

Blights have been stomping all the lobbies im in this evening with no trouble at all. If anything hes too fast, gets right up your ass in milliseconds and you can't get away from him. Dont know what youre doing wrong lol but apparently most of the community aren't having any trouble using him.
I'm getting ready to uninstall, hes pissing me right off.

I like him. He's hard to play, and relatively strong. His power isn't meant to be used at loops. Its meant in between them. Thats why I use brutal strength in him. His only problem is not having a flick.

the argument of "its only day 2, give it time" really doesn't mean much. It doesn't take long for people too go "hey this is pretty bad/good." Day 2 and I already get that he's bad. Even with his best addons he's still gonna struggle against good survivors who know loops and knows how too counter him. It's not gonna take long for people too realise that he is bad. Yes he is fun, but so are most of the bad killers like Deathslinger and Legion. Personally I don't get why he can't be both good and fun, because atm he's just bad.

There's literally tons of people saying how bad he is and he needs buffs lol. He's not strong, just that people aren't use too countering him. His power is literally useless if you turn left or right before he Lethal Rushes you and he'll miss if you turn at the right time. He's Billy but worse because he can't get past windows and pallets. If Compound 33 was basekit without the hinderd part of it and could have a turn similar too Oni's he would be much better, but atm he's not good.

Literally had a player right-angle him through a shack door and floor me before he was on my screen properly about an hour ago. Theres clearly something amiss.

I think he is going to be a very strong killer, just not played by many because of how frustrating he is.

Was he using Compound 7? its a brown addon that makes the Blight face a survivor while rushing.

I have no idea, I raged outta there and didn't even look.

Okay, first: don't expect to land hits 24/7. Second, the threat of his Lethal Rush is what makes him good. Third, predict instead of reacting.
2 -
I don't expect to land hits 24/7, but I expect the hits too actually work. Also, who cares if his Lethal Rush is a "threat" if it barely lands and is easy too counter? And predicting doesn't matter when you can still predict right and still miss. Sorry mate but he's bad and needs fixing and buffs.
