The Secret Weapon Of DBD

She can teleport, she has a small terror radius, she is fun to play, she has a decent skill cap but not as high as blight nurse or huntress, she's in general cracked at fortnite my guy.

That is the hag. She is the secret weapon. No body plays her like seriously I never go against hags and hag is basically a better nurse if you think about it. She teleportes, she has more movment speed, she has a lesser skill cap. She is short though that's the only reason I can think of people going away from her.

The hag is the nuke of nukes she's absolutly insane if you know how to hit your teleport shots and that does take skill but not as much as others. Most people go for her for the perks but never take the time to play her and get used to her.

Some of the best killer mains in the world main hag and I can't see how people don't understand that hag is cracked.

She may be ugly, but hey personality and ability is what matters

    I can't speak for others but I find her painfully boring to play as. She's not QUITE boring enough where she's on my "I'm never playing as you list" but basically unless a Daily or an Archive requires it, I rarely if ever play The Hag.

    Interesting. I find her enjoyable but that's my opinion. I'm just sayin I believe hag is the best way to get a max amount of kills. Like freddy was before nerf. Hella boring but really good

    Playing Hag in the world of CoH? Gross.

    Still stomps bad players I am sure, but what about when they just have a boon sitting outside your 3 gen and you can never get a down?

    Not sure how I would handle that situation, since i've never played Hag since CoH came out. But to me it sounds like torture and that's exactly why I haven't played her since boons were released.

    She's better than boons. Coh sucks to go against as any killer

    She's actually arguably the weakest Killer in the game.

    I been playing killers who don't give 1 eff about CoH.

    And Hag is fundamentally hit-and-run unless the survivor happens to wander too deep into your web. And hit-and-run is totally dead.

    Hag in particular suffers from CoH especially hard since she can't really go snuff it and AND gets all her pressure robbed by it. Her and Twins are probably the most impacted killers.

    I used to play a ton of hag but even now i'm not that naive to think she's nearly as viable anymore.

    I am sure she can still beat mediocre players fine but against a good team they are just gonna run back to the boon infinitely every time you hit someone. Good teams already did that; but now the power is in the hands of the solo Q teams as well.

    Eh. She suffers a lot from COH, but even before that she was boring to play and I hate going against her because she's not very interactive and just spams traps at the hook. She's a killer who you shouldn't really chase with all that much which makes playing against her rather stale overall. Once you're in basement it's basically gg if you don't have a flashlight.

    Face camping with her is redundant, so I prefer not to play her.

    It's a very binary killer. If even only one survivor doesn't know how to play against her, and I mean simple macro strategy, she 4k's every single time.

    If all 4 survivors stick to the plan, she becomes a 110 powerless bot whose only ability is to drag out the game for 20 min.

    A noobstomper archetype through and through.

    Shhh, they don't know she exists. Don't tell them! o.o

    "Better than Nurse"

    Now this, absolutely not. I wouldn't even say she's better than Spirit or Blight, though I absolutely would put her 4th and close. She's definitely a lot stronger than a lot of people give her credit for, and while she has counters (massively disrupt her web while she can't teleport) these counters must be adhered to at all times, and failing to do so once can mess up a team a lot. If someone's hooked in the middle of a Hag web, the game is as good as over, especially if they also have a 3 gen in that area.

    The only real exception to this are flashlights; COH has made it viable to being 4x stacked flashlights to counter her massively without the detriment of being injured all the time.

    I mained Hag briefly for a bit, despite some success and failures I kinda got bored with the playstyle.

    She suffers from CoH more than other killers. Her ability is a combination of camping and Hit & Run. CoH makes her much weaker than before.

    Every Hag I encounter plays the exact same. Chase someone for 3+ gens, hook em, place 10 traps around the hook while still staying close to said hook - yes must be very fun to play!

    COH and hold W meta make her pretty useless.

  • edgarpoop

    Hag is my second most played killer behind Nurse. Couple things to do regarding CoH:

    I run Forced Penance and Agitation on Hag. Because Hag tends to be a bit campy, you end up proc'ing Forced Penance a lot. That means survivors can't heal for 80 seconds on a protection hit. Having multiple injured survivors is devastating against a Hag. If a survivor is on a hook and you have 2 Broken survivors, you are in an insanely good spot.

    Agitation means the hook is almost always happening inside of a 3 or 4 gen. If survivors are being patient, extend the web a bit and trap the walls of the map if you notice they're holding W up the edges. Down them and drag them all the way back with Agitation.

    You can't do well with her unless you have setup time. And survivors who know how to play against her will know that and ruin her web of traps at every opportunity. Or if there's a flashlight, she's instantly countered.
