What do you guys think of the current version of Krasue?
I faced a lot of Krasues from release but after the nerfs, I barely see her at all. I played against 1 Krasue 5 days ago in soloq and we did pretty good with 4 of us escaping. I think she's easy to face especially if you know what you're doing. When you bodyblock for a infected survivor, Krasue is pretty much done for.

I think people are still hung up on how good she was before the nerfs that they haven't actually assessed her since then so they just say she's busted still even though after her latest nerfs she really isn't that great. The loss of Leeched on hook hurt her mushroom control a lot. There's a reason no one's playing her. The Leeched removal on hook was good in that it weakened tunneling, but the end result is that it just nerfed her too much overall. If they just made it so that a random mushroom on the map is removed on hook then it would keep the tunnel prevention we wanted, incentivize hooking, but not nerf her mushroom pressure. Her current state just has Leeched too easily removed.
I'm also personally not a fan of "auto mushroom spawning" rather than just when I swap forms. It removes alternative play styles and feels like you're forced into playing her in only one way, the way they want you to play her. You play well and try to limit swaps to limit their mushrooms? Oh well doesn't matter, they're gonna get those mushrooms anyway.

She's garbage now. The nerfs were complete overkill.

She is good until you meet survivors with good coordination that are helping each other with body blocks then she will have to go as m1 from head form because getting 3 hits with whip takes longer than going to m1 form then infecting and switching back to head form and catching up with flight.
I played her little before 2v8 and I will say low a-tier because her scaper is only good on god pallets that have long walls, she isnt bad in 1v1 but is very slow agains altruistic bodyblocking which will be more common if I compare her to ghoul then ghoul is way better with power especialy his scamper now slowing survivors down as he vaults and more injuries easily gotten compare to her with better mobility makes him stronger. I still think she is solid killer her idea is like some crossbreed between twins and plague but she is between them above plague due to her mobility with more often chase power.

Top 10. Still a good antiloop and good mobility. You cant really go lower than A tier or high B tier with these two things.

She's still too good because her Third person fov is insane, I remember when people where saying its ok on chucky because of his speed and the fov in third person was balanced due to his size. meanwhile Krasue can have a more busted third person fov and have speed and a pretty easy down power.

Yea autoaim plus dashing with the RTS camera is still moronic. Compensate if needed but they can't keep dumbing down chase mechanics like this. It kills the primary skill based pvp element of the game.

Despite her strengths, I just felt like she wasn't fun playing as. I played the entirety of the Haunted by Daylight as survivor and haven't seen one Krasue since the nerfs.

Ever since the removal of infection on hooking there's no urgency anymore yeah you could just infect someone and find someone else but they'll just cleanse it if they already have a mushroom.
Cleansing leech is not hard or ever runs out since mushroom spawn naturally and spawns when Krasue changes to head form so they have plenty of cleansing.

Despite her strength, I just find her not fun to play as. I got her on day 1, but I've played less than 10 matches until today.
Being reliant on infection means you can't switch target mid-chase, which not only makes her vulnerable against bodyblocks, but also Survivors can just play very aggressively if they're not infected, and you're in head form.
It's funny to see survivors run towards killer, and you can't do anything about it unless you switch to human form, which is very uncomfortable.

Still ridiculously overtuned up until survs understand that they need to bodyblock for each other when she's in power. And even then she's still really good.

She's good still but the loss of Leech after hook really kills her momentum throughout the match. With the sheer abundance of mushrooms throughout the map and how long it takes to get fully infected the Leeched status is kind of a non-issue outside of chase? You're not really able to spread the infection anymore because of how easy it's to cleanse so Leeching is purely for the head mode in chase now. It is what it is but I feel like she's a far less interesting killer now since her macro play is basically non-existent now.

i'll be honest. the mushroom/infection mechanic doesn't make as much sense on her anymore now that its removed when you're unhooked. like in a lot of matches you might never interact with a mushroom which kind of screws up her entire theme. personally i feel like she needs a rework in some way to make her theme more consistent, at least. power wise she's probably fine however.

She also gets completely countered by SWF with little counter play on the Krasue's part. Like you Leech someone, switch to head form, and then their teammate comes to body block the head. What do you do as Krasue? You're just in a lose/lose scenario.
The only thing you can do as Krasue in this situation is waste time that you don't have swapping back into body form as well as now giving survivors even more mushrooms.
This scenario has no counter play for Krasue. Bad design.

Much like ghouls she is a killer who if you buff her, is unbareable to go against and if you nerf her she is insufferable to play
It's just bad design lol5 -
Just wanted to say: you can hit survivors in head form if you carry someone

she's ugly and gross like Hag. that's my guess to her seemingly low pickrate, which is fine by me. her actual strength doesn't matter.

she was and still is a solo q stomper. if she goes against a competent swf that will take hits for their teammates then she’s pretty mid.

Is the krasue hate gone now that shes rare to play against and nerfed?

If people take hits and eat mushrooms during a chase she is pretty helpless. Like literally, it depends on survivor play, not killer one.
With dissolution and typical solo q ofc she is a stomper. But Cenobite also stomp solo q. Doesn’t mean he is strong tho, same with her for me.-1
