Reverse The Pig nerf
Even with her current state, she would still be mid tier, because you can remove the trap at 1 jigsaw box of how random it is, people can still be pretty good at her just like people can be pretty good with Trapper for example...

I think her general ability to play wont be too hurt by the changes (if they dont revert them)
She's really going to be hurt at the endgame, so late game builds on her will sadly be put up on a shelf to rot. However, i think the meta way to play her will just become "hey yeah i'm slowing this game down to a crawl, here's a trap for your head, me chasing you off boxes, and a load of gen slow down perks to make you sweat".
By all technicalities yeah its a nerf, i just dont see it being a huge nerf like everyone is saying it is. As a piggy player myself, i ask the devs to hear my cry and please let the traps be of use at the end game! If she traps everyone and then activates the endgame with opening the doors, it would play as if its an actual saw trap! I think that does justice to not only the mid tier killer known as the pig, but it stays loyal to the movies aswell!

I have only 1 problem with this nerf.
It just destroy 1 complete playstyle.
And you should never do that in a game.

Pig is the only Killer that has 2 abilities alongside M1
She still has sneak attack, something Trapper doesn't have in end game.

I don't feel that easing the pressure placed on survivors is a good direction for any killer. If the killer manages to apply that pressure in the first place, that's simply a tactic and leverage earned. The idea that survivors shouldn't get played into a corner makes the role feel vary lax and void of consequences.

If pig was released after the implementation of end game, her nerfs would have been built in. What you should be asking for is something else to make her better

Sneak Attack is hardly useful during the endgame outside of countering Borrowed Time, though. At least the Trapper's Bear Traps can still do something.

They’re reverting the timer not ticking inside the terror radius.

I know not many loved amanda young in jigsaw franchise and always hear because of acting. But i do enjoy amanda story and her narrative as a cheating pig. The one thing she never truly understood from mentor. She wanted those to suffer and not win any of her games.
I'm in pit of sadness cause nerfed her power like most original killers. But they killed her spot as most immersive killer.

My poor pig was murdered and everyone saw it happen!
Have you gone against a P3-50 Trapper main with more than 1,000 hours of play time? Scary $hit man.

Whether the changes are good or bad will depend on who is asked. My reasoning is this; if the killer isn't applying enough pressure that death doesn't feel like the highest probability, then the killer is failing to deliver the horror theme the game sells itself on.
