I want to know what I’d you guys like about The Pig, aka Amanda Young, what her flaws are, and what you think the DBD team should do to make her better?

    She's probably one of my favorite Killers with a inbuilt stealth mechanic and slow down for the game. Shes incredibly versatile killer because of her set up.

    While most people consider her mid tier at best I would personally say shes mid to upper A tier. Her RBT provides 12 plus X slow down time where X is traveling time. I include skill checks into Travel time. She has a wide variety of builds you can use anymore. Most importantly shes fun I mean crazy fun.

    If your bad at chases shes suffers badly. The one thing Pig needs is a quick chase and end. Once you learn that and when and how to deploy RBT she becomes incredibly powerful. Ambushes are a bit weak, but they add mind game potential which is good. Just force a pallet drop or take control of it and learn to wall ride the dash.

    The best buffs to her would be exposed works with Ambush dash hits. Speed increase in crouch and uncrouch, rework on some addons, and finally the roar is removed and added to successful hits.

    Pure stall Killers are all low to mid tier.

    Legion, Doctor and Pig.

    Honestly, her stealth mode should be normal speed. As it is, she's like a worse Ghostface when you compare pure stealth mechanics. GF can at least move at normal speed, if he's not crouching.

    The Pig, on the other hand, HAS to crouch, and HAS to move slower, and does not even have the ability to oneshot Survivors, yet her stealth is SLOWER? Why? It's just a worse Ghostface.

    I honestly feel Pig is in need of some QoL changes... her stealth and crouching seems so sluggish now.

    Ghostface has instadown and an crouch and uncrouch without any hindrance, while Amanda is burdened with a weird transition between the two.


    it's sad, because she WAS my favorite killer. but with a few shadow-nerfs and GF just being a more viable option... I barely play her anymore.

    I would like her more if she got an add-on rework. Most of them are pretty useless, like the ones that increase skill check odds, and both of her iridescents are lackluster as well. She was my first killer so i might be biased, but she deserves some love.

    I just find it funny. I did incredibly well with her on PC. At least until dedicated servers stayed active so I went back to console. Then again I enjoy her and I believe my performance with her reflects that enjoyment.
