    I simply can't agree with this. Doctor is F tier with his useless new shock therapy.

    Tbh to all killer mains I am a survivor main that just recently started to try to use killer and I apologize for how devs treating killer mains in all serious, I hope it changes :/ getting ignored as a killer main is legit ruining the game, even from a survivor point of view. I started using killer because using survivor didn't really give me a challenge recently, and i see killers are just always going through an uphill battle. I do hope it changes to balance the game in a fair way for killers <3

    High mobility killers than don't need ruin are top tier as always, and might have even been buffed since they're now the only killers who can really use ruin.

    Everyone else was just left in the dust.

    Plenty of killer players stopped using Ruin a while ago so for a lot of us this isn't going to change anything. Use Corrupt for the early stall and get over it. This change isn't going to ruin the game or ruin the experience. And the test build has been out for not even day. We have weeks before this goes live so there is plenty of time for BHVR to make changes.

    I think this is a little more fair

    My logic was who benefits the most from new ruin, who gets hurt the most by old ruin getting removed, and how good they are now.

    Hag: Always will be very strong but has a moderate learning curve, can just use corrupt and get nearly the same effect

    Nurse: Most recent nerf hammer really hurt her hard but she still is technically the strongest killer in the right hands. Good luck to any new Nurse mains, you'll need it.

    Spirit: Was tempting to put her in A thanks to the atrocious sound which is her best tool but decided otherwise seeing as they at least fixed her lunge.

    Huntress: I myself am not good with her but I've seen good Huntress mains and what they can do is a sight to behold but I wouldn't say she's as strong as Hag can be.

    Billy: Can make amazing use of new ruin, always was a decent killer and new ruin wouldn't be a terrible option for him.

    Freddy: Well he's Freddy what else do I have to say, slowdown potential, chase ending power, one of the best mobility tools in the game that can lead to sick mindgame.

    B tier doesn't exist don't worry about it

    Demogorgon: Was always just ok, really not much to say about him but I guess he potentially can make great use of new ruin seeing as it's not that hard to apply gen pressure.

    Oni: Never bothered playing him after the nerf but now that they reverted the change I'd say he's fine

    Wraith: Might seem odd but considering he can apply almost constant gen pressure with the right addons he makes amazing use of new ruin. He really isn't as bad as people say.

    Ghostface: Not much to say other than ruin was removed from his kit, he doesn't gain anything with new ruin seeing as he has no mobility tools, better than Myers though for a good reason.

    Pig is Pig what do you want me to say, nothing special

    Trapper: Not having old ruin means if you don't make the survivors three gen themselves you're absolutely doomed even worse than before, at least old ruin gave you time to go from your main trap spot to a farther gen.

    Plague is Plague: will still be able to make great use of perks like Thana and blood Echo, she'll be fine.

    Get F'd tier: This is why killers hate new ruin because it benefits the strongest killers in the game while shafting the weakest of them. To all the survivors advocating for this nerf telling people to get good and just apply pressure, you'll regret it when everyone is running the top 6 killers all the time or running the best addons and mori's on weak killers to make up for their drawbacks it won't be fun for you.

    This wasn't really about ruin, was just a light hearted, and yet somewhat serious, joke that the devs do look into survivor needs more than killers lately. Especially since they cater to making the game easier for low rank survivors just so they don't have to learn the game really. It's a bit annoying

    Spirit, Hag and Billy won't be affected, but RIP all the other killers. I bet you will only see these 3 in red ranks

    It's all good, I saw a good opportunity to stress why Ruin is used so much and why nerfing it at the moment is a terrible idea and I thought I'd have fun putting together the new post Ruined tier list
