Sadako now the worst killler in the game.

BHVR, the main thing that you don't seem to understand is that these changes completely kill her fun and viability in every way. The 3/4ths of a stack for every teleport means you have no control over your power at all, you can't figure out who is nearby and can't quickly teleport around the map. That idea is a terrible one at its core because it removes so much nuance from her kit. On top of that survivors can completely deny your power with no effort for the entire game, so we're left with a M1 stealth killer with a lullaby, and that's it. And Seriously, why Nerf Reiko's Watch? Just why BHVR? Please respond.

  • I guess excel sheet says Watch its used a lot, that ""must mean"" Watch is OP not that other addons are awfull.

    Also would be nice if TP have no cooldown like before (now) BUT apply condem mapwide have 15 seconds CD. So Sadako keep mobility but cant spam teleport to apply an insane amount of condem in short time.

    The changes to Reiko's Watch are some of the most baffling and ridiculous changes that they pushed through. I honestly thought that they only included it as leverage to say they compromised when they inevitably would have to walk back some changes. I don't say this lightly given they are developing the game, but the fact that they were serious about Reiko's Watch shows a lack of understanding in regards to Onryo, her strengths and weakness, and her power in general.

    Most people assumed if they ever changed Onryo, Reiko's Watch would be made partially basekit, not nerfed. I sincernly hope BHVR will look closer into this add-on because the change makes no sense unless they were only looking at usage numbers. Usage numbers does not equal performance; for example, it could just mean her other add-ons are subpar.

    I would disagree that they killed her fun, considering that before this she was one of the least fun killers in the game, at least condemn is an existent mechanic now without having to turbo slug

  • It's a bit like the Hag nerf we see so few of these killers anyway. Sadako will go from rare to rare it's only going to affect the very few Sadako mains.

    They would never dream of doing this to Wesker right? On the other hand there was Billy the once very popular killer so maybe they would.
