Nobody is playing Plague

I'm not seeing her hardly at all either which is very odd for a recent DLC release. I don't blame them though, she's just weak after they neutered her from the PTB.

The PTB nerf plus her lack of cutting corners make her a bad killer.

If her sickness wouldn't slow her down like in her earlier state it would be better, but there need to be an incentive to heal, like reduced action speed.

Her biggest weakness are trees, pillars and everything that breaks LOS.

Survivors quickly found out that you just can run in circles and there is absolutely nothing she can do besides waiting for bloodlust to stack up...

The fountains don't differentiate if you got injured be the sickness or by a hit, you getting a free instaheal. I sometimes infect myself on purpose to get a fast heal.

Her puke is fun, but in a chase you have a problem. Do you puke on the survivor and wait/puke some more until they get broken or you just hit them twice like a m1 killer and nullify your own power?

She is a m1 killer with a gimmicky power.

It can maybe potentially help you in the chase...but often it doesn't. If you lose your Target they get a free heal.

Corrupted Veil is nice if you hit someone (not getting LOS broken or run in a circle) but you lose the infection aspect of the power.

Over pallets and windows it is great tho.

Need to experiment more on her but I would say she is mid to low tier. Gravitate more to low.

Sorry but you won’t see me playing her till rank reset so I can try to get the adept achievement!

I play as her unless my daily is for another killer.

I've played against her 3/5 survivor matches I played yesterday. One person sucked with her, the other two were really good and got 4k. If played right, she's hard to loop, especially after she gets corrupted plague.

I haven't played a lot lately, but I managed to face only one Plague.

Maybe it's because I didn't play her in the PTB, but I don't find her bad as people say. But I agree with Peasant about her BP gain... 25 for infecting survivors is wierdly low.

I’m not playing her because I’m using other killers with blood point offerings to level her up to p3 so I’m ignoring buying purple perks for the cost of the bloodpoints. Once I have her at p3 I’ll start playing her

She was fun to play in the PTB probably because people didn't know how to play against her but honestly now that the initial excitement of a new killer has faded, I don't find her that fun at all.

Maybe Green/purple Ranks she'd do better but sadly she's another killer to add to the list that wont be viable at red ranks or against SWF.

I don’t find her fun to play as tbh, fun to play against though.

Good, getting constantly puked on, and watching my survivor wretch gets old really fast. Love her design and backstory, but puking on people, really?

the genrushing in this update is madness, why would I play with such a bad killer?

I saw her a lot for the first couple of days. Now I see her maybe once a day out of many matches.

Very much like the Clown. He became scarce after his first couple of days of release.

I rather enjoy using the plague. Yeah, she has a lot of shortcomings with her craptastic map pressure and wonky power, but overall she is fun to me.

I think it’s just because you flail someone in the head with an incense burner. For some reason that is absolutely hilarious. She could’ve gotten a knife, a club, an axe, or any Babylonian weapon.

Nope, you get an iron censer on a chain. To me, that’s comedy.

Plus she looks cool as hell.

I have been having decent luck with Corrupt Intervention + Ruin in conjunction with vile purge on gens. Really helps slow down the gen rush which she desperately needs to combat. I love her design and playstyle personally and have been playing a ton of her. It is a lot harder to 4k with her though when compared to other killers.

<_< I mean sure it's purple ranks but I'm doing just fine as her. I run cooldown and charge speed add-ons for a howitzer vomit stream. Add on to the fact that breaking your Obsession grants you stacks of Remember Me and that survivors don't like cleansing and you end up with a free extra 30 seconds on gate opening ^_^

In ways the plague reminds me of the clown. Excellent design, fun mechanics with a good deal of depth. But ultimately the reward for hours spent learning her does not pay off for the lethality you get from her. She has similar chase mechanics to huntress without the lethality and power of a huntress hatchet. Her fountains makes the act of healing a large timesink significantly lower and her power requires her to cross large distances for a upgrade that is quite strong but again time spent accessing that power without her weak map pressure makes gens vulnerable to gen rush. She came in at the wrong meta as a result good players will get subpar results from her. She will remain lower mid tier as long as gen rush and her power continues to assist in gen rush.
