I think Blight will be most hated killer
Yes even Nurse and Spirit. And even Freddy before nerf. He was not popular killer because of pov and bugs. But now he is good, most of him problems gone. And people started playing him and learning. He is so good at chases, he is rejecting pallets, windows are not safe so many times. He has great map mobility. For now, people are new as him. But i can see hate and nerf post about him in future.
I never thought he is strong like that before i tried him. Yes he is S-Tier and i am sure he is stronger than Spirit. When you win mindgame against Spirit, she turning m1 killer and she has not bad cooldown. But Blight? He is god. I hope that boi never gets nerf.

No because blight has counter play, and is actually fun to go against. Unlike those two things you are comparing him two.

Blight is one of the most balanced killers. He’s strong, has a high skill cap, and has counterplay. I really hope they don’t nerf him.

I did not said he has not counterplay. But he is like Nurse. When you get good with him, most games turning easy mod. That is reason i am saying people will hate him so much.

Blight was always good, it's just that certain people genuinely want nothing more than m1 killers that can be safely looped at every tile in a similar fashion to one another and their voices are growing ever louder because the game is shifting away from basic m1 killers. Blight cannot be looped in maze tiles, so the safest thing to do agasint him is to be confusing at LoS blockers and make your way to filler pallets, junk tiles and the like.
Also, certain Blight's like to use nothing more than stacked slowdown perks and exploits, though that's more about hating the player than the killer.

Well friend i never tried him. So i really do not know old version. I gave him chance 1 - 2 days ago. First matches was so hard, hits survivors was like imposible when i was using my power. But when i learned him well, now he is really strong. And i am not good with him, i am still so new.

I gone up against really good blights and I have always felt blight is fair and balanced. I never felt like they got me by some unfair move. Blight is actually fun to go against, unless it's ones of those sweaty ones that wanna slug everyone in one go. The reason people don't like spirt is because you really just have to guess where she is when is phasing. And the reason people don't like freedy is because it seem he has 5 foot arms, it's gets annoying to get hit from what seems like a meter away. And not only that people don't like those two because they have a low skill cap with a high KO rate. And not only that those two are not fun to go against they are some of the most boring killers in this game, unlike blight he is one of the most fun killers to face.

Honestly, it's shocking the number of people I've seen complaining that Blight is unfun and OP. I am willing to bet the devs are at least considering it.

I find blight boring because they all run the exact same build. Not op but just very boring when I can tell the exact sweaty build 10 seconds into a match (ruin undying tinkerer bbq)

The changes they made did nothing but change his camera height, scramble his collision, and slightly get rid of his awful exploit but also it didn't really do much. So, good job bhvr. They gave us one change we wanted, one we didn't, and one that didn't even work properly.

I really hope that doesn’t happen because he’s one of my favorites to play.
0 -
Well i am sure we will see. Because before changes there was not so much Blights. He was one of the rare killers. But now, he is clearly popular but people are new with him. I am sure survivors will hate him so much. I saw people started complain about Wraith, Blight can not escape from that. But i hope this boi will not get nerf because he is so fun and he has fair counterplay.

I have to admit, I’m running the same build, simply because all those perks fit so nicely to his kit. Just like for example infectious on oni, stbfl on demo or bbq+pop on Freddy... or stridor on spirit...
But then, I had to go against the same boring survivor build for years, so I don’t even feel bad about it ;)

Tis why I never use undying or ruin combo. Its very boring and I might use TInker and/or BBQ but I usually go with more location reveal perks like infectious or Nurse calling.
Sad that only ever met 1 or 2 Blights that did not use meta build.....well to be far I rarely see any killers playing Blight.
Funny that sometimes Iron Maiden works if you have a head on survivor on a indoor map which they happen to stun you.

Let me tell you why Freddy and Spirit were, and are, hated.
This is prenerf Freddy btw.
They both have no counterplay. Freddy just has to spam snares and double back to render a loop completely useless. Spirit just has to hit you and phase, and you'll go down unless she messes up, because although it's a mindgame, it's completely and totally in her favor.
They're both boring to go against. Freddy would spam slowdown add-ons with Pop and Corrupt, making the game far too long. Spirit isn't fun because there's no actual chase interaction.
They both take no skill to play. All Freddy had to do to win was spam slowdown add-ons and snares to win. Spirits skillcap is quite literally a good headset. There's no skill requirements to stomp pretty much all teams with them.
Blight, on the other hand, takes skill to play. You said it yourself. People are still new to him, and it's been a while since he released. This means that he has a very high skill cap.
He also has counterplay. You can dodge a Blight hit, and you can path in a way that prevents him from rushing you.
He's also one of the most fun killers to go against. He's strong, but not braindead or overpowered. He has amazing chase interaction as well.

My build is BBQ, Corrupt, Sloppy, and Monitor.

Possibly unpopular opinion:
The problem perk is Tinkerer.
Not just for Blight but many killers
I don't run it myself, I run infectious instead
0 -
The only issues I have going against Blight is making the correct call but then they exploit with a jflick and correct their mistake. If they proper fix that then I wouldn’t be as annoyed when I go against Blights exploiting that which isn’t often tbf
1 -
Reminder that Freddy can *still* spam snares. He gets slowdown while HOLDING them before placing, so when the bar is already full. If he insta places aka spams them, he's still 4.6

I like going against a blight who isn't using the small "you know what" build. If he actually plays using a fair build it is quite fun.
0 -
Blight would be extremely fun to play against... If it wasn't exactly for this. I've counted like 2 blights that didn't run this build 🤷🏻♂️ made the game so much more fun

Blight is one of the few killers where I never felt like I got hit unfairly or he was unbeatable. He's one of the few that I enjoy going against no matter what map or match, it is.

Oh ok. I don't play him, so I didn't know 😂

"Also, certain Blight's like to use nothing more than stacked slowdown perks and exploits, though that's more about hating the player than the killer."
Unfortunately, a lot of Blight players are like that in red ranks.

Blight is the most fun killer to play as (Other than the annoying sliding off things) and he is fun to play against

I feel like blight is a balanced killer and fun to play/against him.
I'm hopeful the devs aren't going to screw it up like they did Old HillBilly.

I'm a blight main. I've played Blight almost exclusively since PTB, but his latest buff was a bit over the top. Blight is as strong or nearly as strong as nurse while having a much lower skill floor, his skill ceiling is just as high as nurse though. I do not think it would be crazy to have Blight be a 110 percent speed killer. His kit is just a bit overloaded right now, but I also don't want them to touch his rushes at all.

He becomes more and more oppressive and shows that he is one of the best killers in the game currently as people learn him, but i wouldn't say there are unfair mechanics that needed to be nerfed (i haven't seen those infamous flicks yet). That is to say, i don't like going against him as he usually plays Ruin Undying and most seem to be very sweaty.
Tbh for me it's the same as with Spirit, both don't have that simple counterplay that survivors wish for and both sometimes get those easy downs were you can't really do anything - but most players do mistakes, they don't use those killers to their fullest potential and are mindgameable. Try to anticipate his rebounds, try to get into his head, look out for his options.

You sure you aren't playing against Blights with Alchemist's Ring?

Ah yes, the typical 5 perks meta survivor build (also complaining about spine chill and nerfed ds o k bro)
0 -
I think the title of most hated killer is reserved for Spirit, Hag, and The Twins. It will always be those 3.
0 -
That the "typical killer build" carries garbage killers to high ranks where they punctually get destroyed by an above average and come to the forums to cry about "survivors being op"
Meanwhile a meta survivor build won't carry a soloqueuer to end game and to ultimately survive, because they have to rely on their mostly uncoordinated team mates, and usually it won't carry normal sega either
Here, that's the difference

I love blight, he’s the most fun killer to play.

If you put time and effort into any Killer as a knowledgeable player, most of your games will be easy mode.
Once you know how to play Killer well, the only challenge you have is swf teams.
Nerfing yourself by choosing low tier Killer's and quirky perks is still a challenge.
Like try playing Legion without regression perks, good luck!
There is a skill level that once you pass it, you will sweep up 85% of any match with a strong Killer.
Blight is a strong Killer, so have fun.

Typical response on these forums. Maybe try something wittier since someone else beat you to the punch on this particular vein. Nothing like rehashing spilt milk. Besides I thought this thread was talking about why survivors hate blight, not the daily annals of killer mains complaining. Really off topic, waste of brain cells

Plenty of killers with counterplay are hated.
1 -
He can still be dead angled like Oni, so he's unreliable at the highest level.

I just said this maybe a week or so ago and was dismissed, OP. Save yourself some trouble and don't try to convince people of the obvious. They'll see soon enough.
0 -
What do you mean my dear dude. I already said he is so strong.
0 -
And I agree. I was saying blight is actually very damn strong in the hands of even a moderately-skilled player and will be even moreso as people master him. This will lead to him becoming 'unfun' and you know where that always ends up.

Nerf Blight posts 😂

Just the other day, I played against a streamer. I usually like to see their VOD to see their perspective on the match so I checked it out. Low and behold, he complained about how Blight is boring to face. He also genuinely said that Blight being able to flick should be nerfed. I had hit him with a 90 degree flick btw, i.e. the ones which were always intended by the Devs.
The majority of people in my experience are quite nice or just indifferent though. There definitely is a minority of people who dislike Blight however. Only time will tell I suppose.

For now people hates Spirit but when she get nerf, i think Blight will be next target.
Spirit needs nerf, yes! But Blight is good boi.
And i also love watch my part of stream when i play againts streamers. And most them hates my Freddy. Man, Freddy already nerfed. Please just leave my boi alone.
