Playing Pig in 2021 is surprisingly fun!

For some odd reason, I've been having a lot of fun and easy pig games recently, almost as if no one is really expecting anyone to play her - same as Oni. It's fun to down someone and put a beartrap on them, hooking them and letting survivors do a few gens. I think RPD is probably the best Pig map since there's a few broken places (god pallets and extremely good loops) in the updated Saw map. You have so many things to hide behind and to play her as an actual stealth killer, letting people come to you. It's an amazing feeling to just wait on the other side of a box or rack of vials until they finish a gen, only to have them run directly into you and getting a good charge attack on them. Every nook and cranny in this map feels perfect for the pig, a mix of actively hunting and waiting for people to go from point A to B due to a guessed route (not talking about camping). Another thing which is fun as Pig is to just follow survivors and watch as they struggle to get the beartraps off, hiding behind things and not letting them even realize you're there. I can really see an increase in killer players playing Pig on the RPD map, and I presume it's fun for both sides since I love getting jump scared in clever ways, not a wraith walking up behind me and dinging a bell XD

    Rpd with pig isn't fun to go against imo.

    Then again I can't stand pig since every single pig apart from one I've ever played against played like utter scumbags.

    Glad you're having fun though

    Don't worry friend, I'm trying to main Pig now and I never tunnel, slug or camp. I hate playing against Pig for the same reason though, they always like to go for that 4k slug...

    You've restored a little bit of my faith lmao.

    Nothing wrong with using them tactics when the game is heavily not going well for the pig but overall playing like that I don't get, pig happens to be one of the main killers I've gotten over the last 3 years that literally all play like that. Apart from one, no joke hahaha

    I hope it's going well learning her!

    Love Piggy. ❤️

    I've been having such a blast playing with this build with Piggy lately: Deathbound, Nemesis, Hysteria, and Dark Devotion. For add ons it's the facemask with some other random add on you want.

    Its been so fun!

    Not trying to rain on your parade but wait til you hit the red ranks with her. Actually you probably won't even make it to that if SBMM kicks in next week. That will be an even bigger level of misery if you've been doing well with her a lot.

    In red ranks against your average survivors, I would argue Pig is one of, if not the worst killer to be. I used to main her but it feels next to impossible to achieve something meaningful with her. She deserves a buff but I'm not sure how to do it since she pubstomps lower rank players with RBTs.

    But I am glad you're having fun with her, I would say enjoy the brown-green ranks while you can, the game is not as fun in reds.

    I'm a lover of stealth killers and pig is by far the best. Playing pig makes me feel like I'm actually scaring the survivors which is nice. Playing against a pig on certain maps is generally scary too, which is what this game is about so she's overall the best killer by far
