Goodbye to Blight's hug-tech! | Dead by Daylight



Read more Dead by Daylight ➜ https://deadbydaylight.mgn.gg

Just a couple games where, for once, I had fun playing as and against the Blight. This match also features the “hug tech”, something that the devs have said will be removed in the future. This tech allows the Blight to walk very close to a wall during the slam recovery and then start a gliding rush without triggering the collision. You can see it in action at 05:53 in this video.

  1. I enjoy playing blight quite a bit, and his hug tech is an interesting interaction that makes him even more fun in my opinion. As good as it is it still has counterplay, blight can’t see when setting it up and leaving the loop can be an option and a lot of loops with tiny objects will still make you bump while doing a hug tech. Alas, the fast paced nature of blight is why I like him so even without hug tech I will still use him 😀

  2. I wonder why there is only Nurses and Blights at high MMR….. it could not possibly be that they are the only killers that is strong enough to be able to compete with the survivors there consistently…

    Nerfing one of the two only viable ones instead of buffing the rest so all killers become viable, exactly the kind of solution you would expect from BHVR.

  3. I really hope behavior ends up changing their mind on the hug tech, he’s way more skill-focused and fun this way. He does need to be tuned down, but his addons are the issue, not his base kit

  4. Honestly, changing hug tech feels wrong to me. Many people invested time in Blight and got used to it, and survivors got used to understand how Blight uses it. It’s part of his kit at this point and removing it would basically be the equivalent of removing Nurse’s ability to shorten her blinks when looking down. I’d rather see his addons nerfed tbh, THAT is his broken aspect. It truly needs tweaking

  5. hmmm how will we increase our playerbase? buff weak killers? fix op perks and addons? nah lets remove the most fun aspect of playing blight, thatll work!!!

  6. I dont care how much people love this tech, it is counterintuitive a killer that revolves around bumping and rushing to be able to circle around a large object (specialy for newer survivors). Maybe with these weird techs removed BHVR can balance blight better, focusing on his strengths and weaknesses
