Everyone thought blight was a D tier killer on release, he was reorganize by being "worst than legion". And look now, he's the second best killer in the game, just behind nurse. Same with pinhead, everyone thoughts he was super weak, but he's actually pretty decent. Coconuts showed a way to have pretty consistents insta kills with her. Maybe if it get mastered she can be a pretty solid A tier or above. We don't know what she can do... Yet.

    Sometimes it is too early to draw conclusions. Sometimes you really do just know though. Like the Clown. Even the Survivor's in his PTB knew he was trash.

    People that bring up blight forget how garbage he was during ptb. His FOV was 20 cm above the ground, he would collide with air every time etc. He underwent many changes to become what he is today.

    Same with Spirit. She was undeniably garbage during PTB, before she got changes.

    Same with Ghostface. He didn't have a power during PTB, and nowdays he is an okish killer.

    Yeah, everyone likes to conveniently forget that Blight was horrid in his PTB.

    People who keep saying "oh you can't judge killer so early" are clearly just forgotting to distinguish how complex the powers are.

    If you have power something like a Pinhead - you can't just easy know if he will be good or bad or decent. You need to aim and time your power well, place it well, you need to know where the box could spawn (aka you need to know positions of surviviors and have the general game sence), etc. You can't judge them easy.

    And then you have power something like Ghost Face or Sadako or Wraith - in chase they are M1 Killers that can sometimes use their power to confuse or trick / mindgame Survivors at loops but that's about it. They don't have any chase power really. They don't aim something. They don't set up something usualy, they just sneak on you and trying to down you like any other killer or teleport to you or something. (I don't count her Condement aka mori status effect since it will usualy never activate fully on anyone in normal games).
