I will not let Plague be forgotten
Why has everyone seemingly forgotten her existence? I understand she is the least picked killer but when everyone is talking buffs here and there they forget about poor plague, the weakest and lowest pick killer. Also her backstory is so damn interesting we need a plague tome. Please for the love of plague's god we need more insight to her she is without a doubt my favorite lore killer out there. Also before anyone even thinks about it she had a lower kill rate than clown so she definitely was the weakest it's just that people played clown more because it wasn't as frustrating. So it was more evident that clown needed a rework because of how many people played him, so he was not the weakest pre-rework and what I'm assuming will be post-rework. Lastly has anyone ever tried to double pip with plague yeah that is extremely difficult, her emblem system needs some strong adjusting.

I still greatly enjoy playing the barfy lady. I just kind of go in expecting to get absolutely smoked by even just competent survivors but she's so much fun to play as that I'm not all that concerned about it.
It would be nice if she got some kind of buff as she is one of the weakest killers in the game

A good Plague will mess your day right up. A bad Plague and you just loop her all game then get camped with her noed.
Jokes aside Plague is my most hated killer. She robs you basically of an entire element of the game, healing. Does she need a buff? Yes Does she need to become A tier? Please god no.

I love Plague, she's one of my favorite killers. She is in serious need of a Doctor level rework though. There are just multiple things wrong with her on a balance level and a simply fun to play as/against level.

And that's why I run NOED with Plague! haha

I play her pretty often and she isn't weak at all. She's hard, because survivors don't heal in the conventional way so they don't waste time with that (only killer who can't make much use out of self care) and so gens fly, you can't afford to make mistakes and you have to snowball hard - which she's really good at
You're right that the emblem system doesn't work properly with her at all, but with new rank reset + mmr that'll be even less relevant. She has my favourite lore as well though and I want a tome with her pretty badly now as well

The Vommy-Mommy is, by far, my favorite killer. Its damn near impossible to not get value out of her power. I wouldn't change a thing about her poweer or her addons

From a visual design and lore standpoint the plague might be the best and most interesting killer BHVR have made so far
But from a gameplay standpoint she feels clunky and inconsistent

I just can't for the life of me figure out the logic behind making her go get fountains while also making those fountains replace healing for less time than a teammate heal. It genuinely hurts my brain

I play her all the time she is fun just... not consistent due to the server.
Also i find that you have to have a build that is good even if survivors do or don't cleanse to do well. my build is pgtw, blood echo, infectious fright, and thano/bbq.

she is a monster in a chase while in corrupt purge.
the trade off is survivors healing to give her the strongest ranged attack in the game.
to effectively use the pools you have to constantly use them when you can IF they are cleansing but don't go too out of your way to use them. the locations the pools spawn as well as what your patrol path is makes her kinda RNG but as long as 3 pools are usable near you it's fine.

I'm with you man, I'm with you.
People like to look at how fast you can down with her Corrupt Purge without realizing that you probably ended up wasting way more time getting them infected/broken and then picking up the fountains in the first place than the amount of time you saved downing with the Corrupt over a basic m1. Not to mention time spent getting those people infected/picking up the fountain is also killing your map pressure aside from its time loss component.
I think people exaggerrate how strong her Corrupt Purge is too. It's good don't get me wrong, but much more out playable than people make it sound, especially given the cost associated with getting it.
You're also one of the tallest killers in the games for your mind games at loops.
Honestly if they'd just allow her to activate her pools from anywhere that would go a long way.

Unless the survivors go to a jungle gym. Or any other tile with a decently high wall.

Who?
In all seriousness it's a shame
I love her lore and concept. But she's just a weaker Legion in almost everyway to me

I would say she is one of the most boring killers to vs, probably the weakest killer in the game, but a good Plague is very exciting to see. The downside to her gameplay is her momentum relies on Corrupted Purge slugging or Corrupted Purge proxying/hook-gen rotation most of the time, due to her not having the luxury of survivors healing vs her. Overall they need to make it so Cleansing has a delay between the Infection cure and Health state heal. Maybe even only making it so Cleansing only grants a health state heal if Broken with Infection. And the only way to Break a survivor with infection is to max infect them and get them into injured state. So a Healthy survivor with max infection will not naturally enter injured+broken and will not infect the environment or people either

I love plauge and honestly I think she would be fine if behaviour changed 1 thing about her. That thing being when you injure a sick survivor (vice versa) whith an M1 attack and they heal with a fountain they are completely healed if they made it so that the survivor just loses the plauges sickness and retain the injury inflicted from the M1 attack she would be so much better IMO

She should be able to repel herself off of the floor, high enough to go over obstacles, using her vomit.
