Any tips on how to stop getting tilted going against blight?

Hatty

I swear I can't avoid rolling my eyes whenever I see a tryhard tech and Blight just feels like a buggy mess going against and playing as.

It's so tilting and I genuinely want to change my mindset, otherwise I'm seriously gonna have an aneurysm with this new tome.

I have seen better players than I get impressed at blight players for doing 180 hits or hugtechs because they're hard to do. Personally, I feel like it's an unfair exploit-- as if there was some kind of "correct way" of playing Blight (which shouldn't be the case!)

So yeah, any tips on how to git gud/mentally stop getting tired at playing against blight? I've been trying some stuff, but hugtechs throws almost all blight logic through the window, or at least that's how I feel, and it sucks because it's the only killer I genuinely hate going against. With Nurse you can abuse walls and corners so her blinks are cut short/go way past you, but I don't feel like I have the same chance to "outplay" Blight with the amount of "exploits" or "techs" this killer has.

TL;DR - I suck at playing against Blight and I am tilted because I feel like no matter what I do I wont ever win a chase against him because of the amount of techs he has that I feel are scummy for not understanding their vulnerabilities. Any tips? Both on how to improve my skill and mental state.

vs the average blight player that flicks everything, you literally just go wide, stop hugging things, then people will realise flicking with blight is the most overrated thing ever, and how much better bump logic is.

Another thing is learn how to bodyblock rushes, learn where on tiles blight has to bounce on or pay attention to what they have to bounce on.

Example in this clip is shack where blight has to bounce off either the corners, doorway, or nearby objects, just stand in front of it so you catch them, or they slide off you away

1. Watch lilith's video on how to run tiles as blight so you can see what the confirms are so you don't run the tile in a way that gives him a very easy hit.
2. Be patient, but also quick to react
3. STOP BEING GREEDY. A decent blight can and will get you at tiles when his power is up. Don't be afraid to predrop/drop pallets a little early because if you give him very quick downs the amount of pallets on the map won't even matter he will hook you and immediately start applying pressure across the map so every extra second you have in chase helps
4. Learning his timings/track number of bumps he does. His power recharges at 2 seconds per token so you can know exactly when his power is up to know whether you can continue running the tile or drop pallet early.
5. Playing unpredictable can help a lot too like knowing he can get you if you run the tile normally and going outside the tile to force him to burn another rush which could be his last. If he somehow reads your moves too well he might be running the aura reading addon so watch out for that.
6. Actually learning blight makes him much easier to play against since you know his general limits ignoring addons such as how fast he can run around tiles, where he needs to bump in order to catch you, and his turnrate/lunge.
