WAS SADAKO BUFF ENOUGH ?

Buffs to existing kit > anti loop power rework

She's probably better than Wraith overall but not as good as the top killers. Specifically she's better in chases than Wraith while still having good Stealth and Undetectability, and her passive invisibility can indirectly help her in chases. Plus her teleport does allow her to maintain mapwide pressure more easily. But she's not as good in chase as killers that have dedicated anti-loop abilities or instant downs, and she doesn't catch up to a fleeing target as well as say Blight or Spirit after a hit.

So she's probably in the average bucket of killers is my guess? Which is fine if true, she doesn't need another buff in that case. If the stats indicate she's too weak though then the obvious buff in my opinion would be to reduce the TV refresh times.

Nope. At least she has one good perk so it's not a complete loss. I've seen enough of her until her next update.

The way I see it she is a lesser Wraith with a gimmicky teleportation that is mostly useless against the average survivor.

And Freddy's teleportation is better because at least it can make the survivors leave a gen or reveal themselves.

It certainly helped her a bit, but she needs more work. She still has trouble in chases and her condemned effect doesn't do much, if not anything.

She's way better for sure but still very mediocre, playing against her she comes off as more annoying rather than an actual threat.

"Sadako needs a complete overhaul"

She's out only one day. That was funny.

No,she's still a C tier m1 killer where her teleport helps but she still gets stuck at loops.

She has better stealth than wraith and can teleport anywhere on the map... Explain how she needs anything but a nerf.

"Almost every iri is OP"

Freddy and PH would like a word with you

She's fine in my opinion. She's the most spooky killer in the game. Bar none.

To be fair, a lot of people think Wraith isn’t that good so saying she’s better than Wraith doesn’t mean she’s overpowered or even that both her and Wraith might not stand to be buffed a little. (I don’t know where either of them stand statistically, I’m just saying in principle they could both be weak.)

She needs a good overhaul.

1.) Demanifested / Vanishing : Cannot be stunned by pallets while demanifested, can phase through them, much faster vaulting speed. Text to 'Demanifest' is changed to 'Vanish'. can Vanish instantly, but takes slightly longer to Manifest. While demanifested, a greenish teal filter colors the world - which is removed once Manifested. Invisible to survivors outside of 14m, phasing while demanifested is much more drastic and remains for 1.75s upon Manifesting. Slight slowdown while Manifesting without a speed buff. (If you can bypass vaults and pallets while ethereal, you can position yourself better to start a chase - the speed boost could break it)

2.) Lullaby : Volume slightly increased. 2+ Condemnation - lullaby volume is greatly decreased, randomly and infrequently hear the TV teleportation audio as if nearby, film grain and 'static' screen effects occur frequently. 4+ Condemnation - Lullaby is directional but constantly shifting in direction, Much higher frequency of illusory teleportation sound, the player sees phantom Saduko models wandering in the distance from time to time, light/dark/gamma/color values can shift and distort randomly. 6+ Condemnation - Lullaby is constant, survivors will occasionally see a demanifested illusory Saduko approach them when they move their camera to the side, upon looking at a TV for the first time in a minute it will appear and sound as though Saduko is crawling through it.

3.) TV Teleportation : TV's all begin off, turn on when a survivor is within 7-12 meters for longer than 7 seconds. Teleporting to a TV does not turn it off. Teleporting to a TV does not grant Haste, but heavily Hinders nearby survivors. Greatly reduced volume when emerging from a TV. Teleporting has only a 14 second cooldown.

4.) The Tape : In order to disable a TV, survivors must eject a VHS tape from it. The TV is rendered inactive so long as they carry the tape. Once the tape is deposited into the designated TV, both TVs remain inactive for 49 seconds - after which, it reactivates as before. When a survivor deposits the tape, they become immune to accumulating condemnation for a few seconds and are revealed by Killer Instinct for 4 seconds. Tape is a visible item and can be seen in a survivor's hand.

5.) Condemnation : Survivors accrue Condemnation very slowly, but continually, once the trial begins. Holding a tape quickly accrues Condemnation and only a portion of this is refunded upon depositing a VHS tape. When Condemned, survivors are Exposed and are Doomed for 77 seconds. (Doomed causes a survivor to enter the Dying state once the timer ends, but is removed when damaged) Gain a stack of condemnation when hooked.

These changes will make her less of an ambush killer, and more of a confusion killer. Less like the Wraith and more like the Doctor. She'll become less of a powerful chasing agent and far more deadly as a source of paranoia, where unwary survivors may sport a strong early game, but as misinformation and pressure mounts, Condemnation will take its toll. The primary ability of the Ornyo with this incarnation is their incredibly oppressive teleportation, of which the only means to circumvent their playstyle is to take up the tapes and run them. If survivors are careful and regiment their time, they can disable her mobility and become immune to the onslaught of Condemnation for a time - but if they are reckless and fail to become effective soon enough, their limited time in the trial will take its toll.

By giving the Ornyo strong mobility, confusion, and strong end-game pressure - it forces survivors to stop treating the killer like a plaything, and forces them to begin to approach the trial as though the Ornyo is a time management challenge. With a killer who can jump across the map to split pressure, motivate survivors off of generators, and confuse them with mounting visual and audio disinformation - the Ornyo can become fun to play as and against without breaking the balance.
