Sadako needs a buff, please
I've experimented with a lot of different builds and I really just think her power wastes more time to do anything with it. It's visually great and all that but there needs to be some more danger to her power other than only when the survivors choose to hold a tape in most cases. I've seen a few occasions where healing causes red ring of death.
I feel like maybe if a tv is on and a survivor goes near it, there should by default be a debuff aura, you shouldn't have to bring an add on to make them any use to you other than teleporting.
Since Sadako takes a minute to come through a tv, maybe whoever is in the zone of her projection can hinder the survivor for a time to compensate the risk of doing a gen near a powered tv.
Or i can think of something like Freddy's power where condemn could go auto fill and you need to turn off the tv's and stuff to keep it down. Then holding a tape also holds it's risks.
There's a few different avenues I think that could make her wayy more fearful and fun

Want a simple buff? Reduce her cooldown to 40 seconds, but keep her disabling time (cooldown for taking a tape) 60 seconds. That way, she can actually use her power for mobility more than just once or twice without add-ons.... and give a reason to turn the tv off.

She's probably the weakest killer in the game outside of her condemn build. However if you use her condemn build more then once to try it out then I don't like you.

They've made it very clear they don't care about Sadako (probably didn't make enough cash), she won't ever be made good.

Dredge was a big F*** y** to Sadako and Freddy.
5 -
I wouldn't say worse than Freddy IMO, especially since her condemn build actually exists while Freddy has practically no addons
0 -
Ironic how she has more skins than Freddy (and better addons) tho
0 -
Sadako is already fun tho? And with the Iri tape and ring drawing, I'd definitely say she's pretty deadly, probably on par with pig's crate of gears and tampered timer
If anyone needs a buff to be more fun and less boring it would 100% be Freddy, his power both sucks and is boring whereas sadako's can at least be fun and can be improved via addons
0 -
I think a killer should not be relying on an iri and a bother addon to get pretty deadly they should be deadly basekit and just get a bit better or change there focus on one part of there kit
2 -
Maybe not but at least she HAS it
Unlike Freddy who doesn't even have any good addons and is terrible as well
0 -
It's hard to not see this as somewhat true, Sadako's power could be a little more impacting on the game.

Freddy has a lot at his disposal from basekit, and his add ons change that gameplay slightly for different perk builds. Sadako on the other hand from what she has, you HAVE TO BRING specific perks with her or it's gonna be a really unfun frustrating time playing her. She needs to be basekit strong and then play with add ons, not basekit weak and have to spend a huge amount of blood points to be able to do anything with add ons
0 -
What exactly does he have with basekit? His puddles and long teleport which gets worse as the game goes on? Not to mention his puddles can be completely negated if the survivor is awake
Clown and dredge are both better than freddy at what they do, clown having a better hinder (that cant be ignored) and dredge having a way better teleport
Even sadako's teleport can be better because she can teleport a lot of times in a row
Basekit wise, theyre pretty close yeah but in total because she HAS good addons it makes her better than freddy who has NO good addons and arguably the worst set in the whole game

The things I want for Sadako are:
- The lack of hitbox while demanifested should extend to pallets, so she can walk through them. She can still be stunned, but if a pallet is down already, she should be able to walk through it while demanifested. She still has to take the time to remanifest before she can hit the survivors, so it's not Nurse levels of powerful, but it gives a little bit of pressure.
- If someone is fully condemned, THEY NEED TO BE EXPOSED. There is nothing more upsetting than fully condemning someone, chasing them to their TV, and know that there's nothing you can do to prevent them from getting rid of it because if you hit them, unless you've got 7+ stacks of Play with your Food, they have time to put their tape in before you can hit them again and down them. For the amount of time and effort it takes to fully condemn someone, the least they can do is make it possible for us to mori them. Hell, it could even be something along the lines of "a fully condemned player is exposed when carrying a tape" or "within ___ meters of a TV".
- Reduce the cooldown timer of TV's, especially if you are turning them off yourself. I can understand long cooldown if the survivors go out of their way to turn them off and hinder your abilities, but being able to teleport more often would be a huge boost to mobility.

What add ons of freddy's are so bad??? He has some really nice ones especially the one that makes it so failing skill checks keeps you asleep.
Sadako doesn't teleport to gens like freddy does, i feel also it's a slower process with sadako than Freddy in that scenario
0 -
Yeah In general Condemn needs a boost to be actually fun and practical to use. without survivors using the wiping of the blade animation to escape the condemn. Literally nothing you can do if she's not running Play with your food perk
1 -
Yeah but Freddy at least has a power in chase, not a good one but something that does actually help end chases or at least get through pallets faster. Unless you do pallet Freddy which is definitely weaker but then you have to consider BK Myers so I dont really count the meme builds.
1 -
then what does Sadako have after using a tv? not much lol
2 -
The ability to teleport to another tv immediately? Idk what u mean by this
If your referring to the long cooldown, iri tape pretty much solves this
1 -
Yeah but that's what i am saying in my post. This was the issue with other killers is you ahd to take a pink in order to be a real deal threat in the match bruh

Sadako, the best Buff possible:
Sadako's sentence progresses automatically, it is not possible to stop him.
Conviction has 5 levels.
Each level has an effect, each effect stacks with the previous one.
Condemnation levels up every 2 minutes.
When a Survivor places a tape in a TV, the time required to gain a level of Conviction is doubled on themselves.
When Sadako hits a survivor, the latter is under the following effect:
LVL 1: Hindered
LVL 2: Mangled
LVL 3: Heamorrhage
LVL 4: Exhausted
LVL 5: Exposed (When the last generator is repaired).
When Sadako teleports to a TV, the TV reloads after 60 seconds by default.
Each time Condemnation levels up, TV cooldown is reduced by 5 seconds.
Red Addon: Television cooldown is reduced by 10 seconds for each level reached.
Red Addon: Conviction time reduced to 45 seconds per level.
On the other hand, survivors will not be affected by level 5.
Purple Addon:
At level 4, survivors also suffer the incapacitated effect for 60 seconds.

She at least has it tho, freddy has no useful addons and his power can be completely ignored and is literally just puddles to begin with
0 -
Its her only strong build tho, can you really blame them?
0 -
Literally all of them? And thats something that should be basekit anyway, and being asleep is hardly a threat anyway since competent survivors dont use skillchecks to wake themselves up anyway because its detrimental
Plus thats an iridescent addon for something that should be basekit given how weak his power is
She can teleport faster than freddy, each individual tv has a long cooldown, yes, but this is completely negated by her iri tape, which unlike freddy's iridescent, is strong like an iridescent addon is supposed to be
TVs are almost always positioned next to gens to so it does not matter much if she isnt teleporting on top of one (and alerting before even doing so)
Basekit wise, without her addons, yeah she is worse i will give you that, but in TOTAL? Sadako is way better than Freddy
1 -
Which is why she needs a buff without relying on Iri tape, without it and such she's really weak and can't lock down a team
1 -
anything is better than what we have currently
1 -
Her only strong build makes her one of the most boring and annoying experiences in the game so yes I can
1 -
Yeah i agree with you but im saying freddy should be looked at first, ay least in the addon department
If he actually had at least some good addons like sadako i wouldnt be arguing rn
0 -
So you just want ez mode sadakos so you can bully her and escape easily with no hooks? Lol
Its the ONLY thing keeping her from being worthless, it might be boring to you can say the same against a slugging high mmr nurse
0 -
The only viable idea regarding Sadako is the one I came up with.
You have to admit that the idea of a passive, unstoppable but slowly progressing condemnation is viable for the killer and the survivors.
0 -
No I want her to get buffed and for her condemn build to be removed. I dont know why people thinking a super dumb boring build is healthy for the game. Her killrates being so high is probably more indicative that her condemn build makes people just want to quit
0 -
Why keep condemn as a mechanic at all then if it is not supposed to be used?
0 -
The mechanic itself can probably be implemented in a way that doesnt reward you for constantly slugging and teleporting. If they cant figure out a way to do that, then honestly I hope they do just get rid of it.
0 -
To me its the same reason that pigs beartraps aren't really meant to get a headpop. they are meant for mass slowdown. Sadako's version just isn't very good
0 -
Well if they were to buff the cooldowns of the tv to like 20 seconds instead of 100 for each tv and buffed the tv turn off by survivor being 60, id be fine with that (as well as getting two stacks when taking a tape out, and putting one in removing 4 stacks)
They dont seem to want to do that tho so if they were to listen to you guys and remove iri tape and ring drawing without any huge buffs, then she will unfortunately become the worsy killer in the game no contest (and possibly even more boring since wont be able to condemn anyone)
1 -
She already is the worst killer. maybe trapper is tied but still. remove iri tape. i dont really care about ring drawing but buff tvs like you said would be fine
0 -
Lol what? Trapper is way better than sadako, not even tied
Mabye you just dont know how to place traps lol
Anyways, freddy is worse than sadako in total. Basekit wise, yes, she is the worse, but since she has those 2 addons she is not, since freddy has no redeeming addons at all (iri tape and ring drawing is a deadly combo when used right)
I agree with u tho, although it would have to be a big buff to justify removing iri tape, not just like a 5 second buff
0 -
I only say there tied because
Trapper has Antiloop - Sadako Does not
Sadako has Travel - Trapper does not
0 -
removing her Iri tape would just make her useless
