Are You Guys Going to Rework Skull Merchant?

I think it's almost unanimously decided by the community that absolutely, positively, no one likes Skull Merchant's playstyle or Power.

No one wants to play against a Killer whose only viable playstyle is to sit around and stall the match out as long as possible, and no one (who goes outside at least) wants to play a character who can do quite literally nothing all game long unless they specifically decide to play around the generators.

So.

Question, developers.

Are you guys going to rework the Skull Merchant at all? And I'm not talking about a Ghost Face or Legion level of "rework", but a whole Freddy or Doctor level of rework?

Because it seems like she needs that. A lot.

    I literally had a game as SM today where I won at 5 gens, the way people exaggerate the idea that SM has to 3 gen to be effective is crazy.

    Well to be fair, it is easy to win at 5 gens as SM currently since the moment survivors see a drone half the team just quits.

    Every match I've been in as survivor, the moment people find a drone, they sit in the space, wait, get hooked and opt out. Now it is 5 gens and 2 vs 1.

    No one wants to play against her, it is boring.

    Yeah I've gone against two SMs to date who haven't 3-genned and both easily walked away with a win with an average length game. I didn't care because the games were actually enjoyable. It's a shame seemingly 99% of SM players choose to play her the way they do.

    I'm of the the opinion that most people playing Merchant aren't actually SM mains, they saw how you can cheese with her and decided they wanted the easy wins or just wanted to troll and hold the game hostage. Believe me when I say I want the SM rework more than anyone cuz I'd be happy to have all the frauds stay away from the character.
