REASONING
Power Changes:
1) Now her mindgame with crouch/ambush will be much stronger. She will have no red stain, and because she is low to the ground, in most tiles survivors also won't have line of sight.
She would be able to feint her ambush with very little slow down.
2) To balance it out the fact she won't have undetectable.
3) Many people will dislike that. Fact is: Pig's power is a mess. The ambush was made to be a surprise attack, but as standing up was better, players realized it could be used in tiles.
Hower, every survivor can option select it with. Because of that, compared to other powers, it is mediocre.
Her stealth is also mediocre, once she has an Ambush, to balance she has a 90% speed. Compared to other stealth abilities Pig looks like a deplorable snail.
She does antiloop and stealth, and to balanced it out she ends up being mediocre on both. I think one should be chosen, and I choosed antiloop because mindgames are better for the game and fun.
With monitor pig is pretty much still a stealth killer. Plus people who like gen grabs are still able to do it way quicker, but at an addon slot cost.
Addon changes:
1) This addon used to suck. Now it does something good that is give you more information about your boxes, thar can lead you into a hit or a down.
2) This addon used to suck. Now it has place on some builds, and it encourages mindgames with ambush which is healthier.
3) Same as 1.
4)Make her addons more fun and diverse. Also for people who likes stealth/gen grabs.
5) Same as 4.
6) Same as 2.
7) A lot of people dislike the RNG on her power. That asson would literally eliminate that. I don't see a reason for why changin it on her basekit, as the RNG one is more similar to Saw movies.
The probability of survivors having to search for 5 boxes is 3.84% so it was not a good addon anyways...
8) Same as 1.
9) Same as 7 + more fun/diverse perks that do different cool things.
10) Same as 4.
11) I am against OP red addons, but I agree with red addons that chages the power. Survivors would remove the first traps, and what you have is an extra profit. The perk is not insanely strong, but also not useless.
C'MON DEVS I BOUGHT THIS KILLER 3 YEARS AGO AND IT IS STILL TRASH PLS BUFFF AAAAAAA *PRETTY GOOD JOB INTENSIFIES*
Comments
Pig is mostly fine as is.
She's only really weak against the upper percent of players, not even just red ranks but the actually decent people- and when RNG is very much not in her favor. That's about it.
She is a very low tier killer for those reasons; but she is mostly fine and doesn't need a huge rework or anything to that extent. She has the second highest kill rate in most ranks, and 4th highest in red ranks- we all place her at the bottom tier because if you go against really good top end groups she will get dunked on due to her unreliable power, her dash telegraphing itself, and not having a lot of great addons.
So in summary, all she really needs is a few small changes to help her at very high level play; and the most requested change which is less reliance on RNG which would be better for both survivors and killer.
Going so far as to call Pig "trash" though is a bit of a stretch.
She's not trash, but not that far from it honestly.
I think she needs a rework to make her ambush actually skillful and strong in a chase by being less predictable and more easy to use. Her RBTs also need to get rid of the RNG aspect to it. Then we can start talking about her addons.
She's a M1 killer.
"She's decent againt the average killer" what killer isn't?
Her stealth is slow. Her ambush midgame is survivor sided.
As I right in my reasoning her entire power was wrongly designed, and so as her add ons.
She's been trash for so many years. The only killers that are worse than her are trapper and clown. That is not even a complement.
She has potential.
As I Pig main, all I feel right now is pain and sadness, with a slight touch of suffering sometimes.
For the love of God and everything that is sacred and divine she needs a buff right now or I'm gonna pop my own head this time.
That is what my suggestions will make.
why she lost undetectable. she is a combination of stealth and aggressive.
also i want a custom chase music that resembles saw since you know. she is from saw

Yeah. Something like this song. It really follows DBD patterns of becoming more intense as the "killer gets closer". I can imagine it.
