A Sadako Rework suggestion

Hi! How are you guys doing?

Since the release of Sadako, this killer have been among some controversy on being too weak, specially because her lack of chase oriented powers. Yeah, i know some streamers have made some big winstreaks with her (400+), but lets be honest: its one in thousands. In High MMR, playing Sadako against good teams its not that fun.

I think that with some changes Sadako can be stronger and more of a versatile kller, forcing survivors to interact with TVs to deny her power or leave them to deal with the Condemn status effect

My suggested changes:

  • The most important one: Condemn now gives 3% Hindered for the first stack up to 3 stacks, and 1% extra Hindered for every 1 stack above 3, at the maximum of 7% Hindered with 7 stacks. This way, using Projection would be a way to Sadako to get some chase potential, as cursing survivors with Condemn would make them slower.
  • Injuring a survivor from Healthy to Injured gives them 1 stack of Condemn. Hitting them from Injured to Dying state gives no Condemn. (This change would make survivors choose how they want to play against Sadako: Play healthy with the risk of being stacking Condemn or risk play injured against Sadako without risking taking Condemn).
  • Whenever a survivor is 16m near a turned on TV, he/she slowly stacks Condemn (1/3 the speed of holding a tape).
  • TVs cooldowns are changed: 40 seconds if turned off by projection, and 70s if turned of by a survivor. This way, survivor should feel pressured to turn off TVs before Sadako could use Projection.
  • Ring Drawing change: Partially basekit: Healing a Condemn survivor a health state give half of a Condemn stack. Healing from Dying state to Injured gives no Condemn stack. Using the addon make healing a state give a whole condemn stack per heal.
  • Iri Tape Change: -> partially basekit: If hitting a survivor 8 seconds after Manifesting, the last TV turned off by Projection is turned on. If hitting a survivor 8 seconds after Projection, the Last 2 TVs turned off by projection is turned on.
  • Iri Tape Nerf: 2 TVs turn on when hitting a survivor after Manifesting (does not affect Projection)

Well, that's most of my ideas on how to turn Sadako an interesting killer with some chase potential. I'm ready to see you thoughts! See you guys in the fog!!

    base-kit hindered is unlikely to happen. She has chase power in form of invisibility and flickering but her number are under-tuned from gameplay perceptive. Of course we do not go by dbd gameplay, we go by statistical kill-rates.
