From the questions I’ve asked on Reddit, Most people just don’t find her fun or don’t like more Macro play heavy killers. She is also easily countered by 1-2 survivors harassing her traps while she is busy. However despite all her limitations and short comings, she is a very lethal killer in the hands of someone who knows how to play her. Love Hagatha and she’s one of my favorite killers to play.
Favorite build I see is speed granny. People already don't really know Hag that well as is and nothing really messes with them more then a killer not doing whats expected of them. Hag has solid copies so she can't tele-what do you mean shes running at 135 speed!
Speed Granny is a lot of fun, and I already have a build ready to go. I had to make a classic granny video first though, but speed granny will be here eventually!
I always loved Hag's power. The concept of spinning aweb of traps is sick. But she just feels so slow to me. Like for a skinny, boney thing The Hag doesn't move fast like you'd think she would.
@@senatorarmstrong1233 Agreed. If Trickster and Artist can be 115 then I think Hag can too. (Yes I know they're considering moving Trickster back to 110). I'd love to try a 115 Hag on a PTB and see if it's too oppressive or if it's fine in modern DBD.
With lack of muscle and no skin as i infere from her lore she may lack the nerves to move fast but it is still a valid criticism but i think with the power to tp near anyone and instahit them is why shes 110 unless outplayed then it is a difference of day and night
I like to use hag with waterlogged shoe and a backpack build. Makes her zoom like crazy and survivors never see it coming lol I get a surprising amount of dcs
as a hag player, she's SO fun, after I fell in love with doing hit n run wraith and a few other speedy m1 killers, playing hag just feels so utterly incredible. Closing off whole areas of the map, knowing there's nothing survivors can do. Go ahead, pop 3 generators, my territory is marked and none will escape it alive :) much more slow paced n methodical, but when she gets going it's just injury-teleport-injury-repeat :)
@@bubu20202 Have fun! Just remember that the build should still work if you can't play for the basement; don't throw the match trying to force it every game.
I used to main her but i stopped when they introduces the wiped thing, Cuz good-decent survivors Will just wipe all your traps and those destroy your setup that took you so much to put down
I'm fairly new to hag myself (been on a quest to p3 all characters), but I'm pretty fond of how she plays. I just feel like range add-ons are almost mandatory cuz of how strict the range is without. edit: I should specify teleport range. the trigger range is fine as is
Same reason people don’t play Plague or Skull Merchant, she’s too good at her job and ends up feeling tedious and boring after match or two. I personally like it if the killer I choose is challenging to play and encourages me to chase. After all chases are the most fun aspect of this game. Huntress, Slinger, Nemmy, Xenomorph, Demo, and Wesker more than meet this qualification.
I played one game as Hag on Autohaven, yesterday. I got one hook in the basement, and the entire survivor team just IMMEDIATELY gave up and ran to the basement to die together. Literally not even trying to save, they just fed themselves right in. That's the reason for me. Because it keeps happening, even when I'm not trying to play camping hooks granny. Soon as I hook someone in the basement? The game's apparently just over for everyone.
@@ItzZWolfey Thank you for the critique. I typically like to keep the visuals a bit simple so they don't distract from the info too much, but I can play around with it a bit and see how it feels.
The only reason hag isn't played much is for 2 reasons: 4.4/110% movement speed, and no one likes taking 3 minutes to set up all traps, while 2-3 gens pop immediately while your setting up your web of denial as I call it.
I like playing Hag quite a bit, but only because of my scroll wheel. If I didn't have a scroll wheel that spun really well, I'd imagine I'd hardly touch her
Funnily enough I've never had a problem with the default control teleport. I've thought about switching to the scroll wheel but I'm afraid my muscle memory is too strong at this point.
She's weak for newer players trying to play her. But she is strong for a player knowing how to use her power properly. I have over 1k hrs and have had both very weak and very strong hags. Just depends on the person playing killer, and the team you're with. She also had a trap change that was a bit controversial. You use to be able to burn the traps with flashlights, now they do a remove hex action. That added to the hag hate train
Unironically I think the hag is boring as fuck BUT she has one saving grace that makes her fun to me The racecar build You take Waterlogged shoe addon and then the rusty shackles addon then you take perks that help with haste (Machine learning, Batteries included, PWYF), Slow survivors (Forced Hesitation), or recovery speed (STBFL, Bamboozle), and maybe an end game perk or two (No-ed, no way out) you are now so much faster than survivors they can't loop you and you can literally do laps around them while you're sped up and they're slowed down and they can't do shit
Ex hag main here. She's just outdated. Her abilities are easy to counter, she's slow, and her add-ons need a serious update. Switched to Alien. I no longer stress and rage at the game anymore. I miss my hagatha, but not the headaches
I used to main Lisa. Nobody likes going against her anymore. When I do play her half the lobby dc's and the other half kills themselves on hook. It's not like you can't easily counter her. She's slow as hell and you can harrass her traps and ruin the whole game for her. They say she's too boring and no fun to go against. I personally think she's fun to play as and go against. I would love to play her more but on days I'm waiting 5 or so minutes to get into a lobby and the game is over in 1 minute or less because of dc's, it sucks.
@@dojo45789 Defensive killers are definitely a different experience from other killers. I'm glad DBD has a large enough roster for there to be such a good variety of killers.
Nobody plays Hag for the same reason why nobody plays Knight/Trapper/Skull Merchant: The average dbd player doesn't like strategic, macro oriented killers. The top most popular killers are always micro, adrenaline pumping trickshot type killers. Huntress, Blight, Chucky, etc. Hag is strong but despite that she isn't played because she's not that type of killer. I'm convinced the majority of the community simply lacks the necessary mindset to enjoy or even understand these types of killers. Evident by how basically everyone says Merchant takes no skill whilist completely ignoring her entire trap aspect and focusing entirely on pressing m2 on loops. Infact, many are in denial that merchant is a trap killer at all. Well, she was... until they deleted her entire kit.
Hag isnt popular because the playstyle of hag isnt conducive to fun matches, killer players aren't going to gravitate to a style/killer that makes all the survivors quit the match early. Getting free hits on basement unhooks isn't impressive because you put traps around the area. sure it's definitely efficient, but it sucks the fun out of the core gameplay
i like hag but if you want to win you kinda need to play like a lot of the weaker killers. 3 gen, slow down. she is slow, no anti loop. i play her sometimes just cause a like the idea of jump scaring ppl sometimes. if i lose oh well.
as a hag main, i really feel like hag doesn't need to be any faster than she already is because of how powerful and unconventional her chase can be especially after the retiring of lightburn. if they were to make hag 115 she would have to also have her traps be flashlightable again or some other big tradeoff because she's already one of the most consistent and least map-dependent killers in the game if you know how to play her
I hear you, but her traps are now WEAKER than before because now anyone can wipe them when before you needed a flashlight with juice left in it. Every killer that had lightburn removed got buffed, except for the Hag who got nerfed.
meh, i would argue they're still just as strong if not stronger. the downside of *everybody* being able to wipe them away instead of just flashlight users is pretty big, but its made up for by the fact that her traps can't be disarmed mid-chase anymore, or atleast not without the hag player making a really big mistake. i get what you mean though, i just feel like that along with the other suite of small number buffs she's gotten recently makes her just fine. i'm definitely biased though lol, love seeing hag content

I´m a Hag main with 6k+ hours, an underestimated killer who can end a match in minutes.
Hag mains hold a special place in my heart. Thanks for watching!
Hello fellow Hag main
@Negoose Oh hey, I've seen your Hag videos! You're a legend man, keep it up 👍
As a hag secondary main, she does have lots of moments that feel really annoying that drive some people away from playing her
@@TheScreamMachine Thanks alot 🙏🏾
idk why she's 4.4m/s in 2024. Trickster is ranged and is 4.6m/s
@@sebestein09 Yeah. Like I mentioned in another comment, I think a 115 Hag wouldn't be too oppressive in modern DBD.
the unkown looking from a distance with his grenade launcher and clones
shes a 4.4ms because she has a smaller than normal terror radius, which is a relic of old dbd balancing
@@kainkokkeler4200 I believe you have that backwards.
Trickster getting his changes reverted from what I read in the recent blogpost

Another great video! I that you give an in depth build and show full gameplay. And you play a variety of killers which keeps it interesting. Thanks!
@@Script_Plays Thank you for your kind words, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Early game feels really bad as gens just pop around you. Then you snowball and it just doesn't feel fun anymore.

Please, more Hag videos. This was great to see after all this time. Love Hag in DBD so much.
@@runeguardian I'm glad you enjoyed it! There will definitely be more Hag in the future.
I love this evil build and i'll probably use it since Hag's been sitting in my roster prestiged for too long, thanks!
@@bubu20202 Have fun! Just remember that the build should still work if you can't play for the basement; don't throw the match trying to force it every game.
I’ve gone against her recently a couple of times and it was terrifying. I’m only new lol
Negoose (YT channel) plays a P100 Hag all the time.

@@blackplague883 THANK YOU! I literally complain on every DBD survey about how much I hate that 5 second loop. Our girl got shafted.

Only time I personally play hag is chase hag. Its insanely fun, I get too bored to play defensive killers that often

I played the hag this mornin
is she !? during last 2 weeks i seen a whole bunch ,and usually played well too .
The only reason why I don't play Hag is because of the hit and run playstyle resulting in not getting to hear the chase theme as much
Do it with the body lock add on!
I did Halloween hag

I love hag but she is too braindead for me to play regularly.
Mainly? I just don't like her look. That's it.
@@Renchamos Yeah, her default look is kinda bland. She has some solid cosmetics but I'd love it if her default skin was more feral.
