Hag is one of the only killers that still scares me sometimes and that is the real reason i started playing dbd in the first place. I wish they would go back to this and make more killers with jump scares and all that, very hard to be scared by a short neon purple singer in a neon yellow curtain. Sadakos scary sometiumes tho
I used to be a spirit main before they fucked her all up, even survivors have told me that they enjoyed the tension and jumpscares that came with a gen grab.
@@aaauuguhu9048 well on PC with a good headset you can hear where she is phasing around so if you combine this with perks like Quick and Quiet, the no boon that prevents scratches/light fooded, distraction you can really bamboozle her
The weirdest thing about Hag is that people always forget she exists even though she's one of the top tier killers. Like every time meta discussions come up, it's always Nurse, Spirit, and Blight, with no mention of Hag, even though you can run no perks no addons with her and still clap at high MMR
I guess it's because the application of her power in response to a survivor is better than the power itself. Like the whole trap system seems to have originally been intended as a hit and run or map control playstyle, but fits far better as a survivor perk denial machine. Sprint Burst means nothing if they run into a trap 5 metres down the line, DS stun and distance caused means nothing if they hit a trap later down the line, Dead Hard prevents a swing but Hag's strength comes from having the most opportunities of any killer to get a hit without direct input. Nurse must blink to get a hit, Blight must dash to get a hit, Spirit usually has to phase to get a hit, whereas Hag only needs to be patient and corral a survivor into an area with traps to get a hit. In the hold W meta a power like that arguably has more potential than the high tier killers when used correctly
It's because the power has to be triggered by survivors. Yes it is strong but if someone knows how to avoid/destroy or even play around this then she becomes a M1 killer with significantly less speed. This makes her inconsistent and partly reliant on the survivors mistakes. The start of a game you have to predict the most active areas then place intelligent traps in the hopes that they are effective. Even then that area once noticed could be avoided until the swf is ready to clear it out and do the objectives. So the only other option is forced zoning eg trap and area that you hooked someone in... Basically tunneling/camping this is what she excels at because she can control it reducing the inconsistencies, with DBD actively trying to stop camping and tunneling you are indirectly nerfing the hag. Things can go very right with her but also extremely wrong, you either play in a none fun way or you start fliping coins.
That's something that always bothered me about those types of discussions. Sure, Nurse can teleport through the games obstacles, Spirit can go invisible and can be very hard to track, Blight can zip around like sonic, but are people really ignoring the killer than can instantaneously teleport to any trap and immediately follow it up with an attack?
she claps at high mmr pubs but if you’ve seen someone play hag at a tournament you can see why she’s sometimes left out. If all four survivors communicate and now exactly how to deal with a hag, you’re going to have a horrible time. She’s high tier yeah, but not tournament level
The ending is actually really interesting. It feels like the gaming space is maturing in some ways. In 2016-2018 it was all about gimmicks, innovation, trying something new. But as it's gone on, we've realised what people like, and we're sticking to it. Building was new, it was interesting, it captured peoples imaginations. And then we realised people like to shoot people not wood. A killer like hag is interesting, new, provides a different playstyle to the game... Are we going to realise that everyone really just enjoys loops and chases? There's this tendency when looking at trends to homogenise people, to treat outliers as not individuals with tastes and preferences but data points that don't fit the graph and should be ignored. Who's to say people enjoy the "wrong" thing about fortnight? That enjoying building and the new dynamcy it brings to the space is an inferior waste of breath? Who's to say enjoying the feeling of being a cunning mastermind, setting up death traps as hag is an inferior waste of breath? Maybe the charm is in the fact that people don't like those things. Maybe it's the interesting outliers that make the chart worth drawing in the first place.
I actually can't stand chase-oriented killers. Setting up traps and corralling survivors into them is the fun part. Holding W and breaking wood is not. However, as your MMR increases every second you spend setting a trap is at least 2 generator-seconds lost. So at a certain point, not getting in a chase immediately is a liability. Trap killers stop being viable.
"I've always been much more interested in emotionally interfacing with my games than trying to win them" Holy shit. I just committed to the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending in Elden Ring for this exact reason.
3:27 Actually, you're slower because the Hag is slowly getting petrified, aka turning into a stone, basically. It's why The Hag drinks blood, as it reverses that process.
@@tristanporter7195 tbf he doesnt do the killers that he dosent really like in favor of the ones that he dose like....he hasn't done trickster or plage either...he said in a deathslinger stream once that he dosent like ranged killers with that type of ranged power....so bet he's been avoiding them for a hot minute, especially since ranged killers are ven harder to master on Playstation
Sadly she has officially been reworked recently. You can't use the flashlight to break her runes anymore. Instead, much like Trapper's bear traps, you can sneak up to them and interact to disable them.
Dude remember space coconut going on a quest to get to red ranks as hag and everyone was like "wow, what a challenge" like a week before she became the strongest killer in the game breifly?
In the right hands the Hag can be punishing. She was the first killer I made it to rank 1 with. But if you go against a sweaty SWF team armed with flashlights things can go bad depending on what add-ons you are using.
I remember back when I was new he was one of the best sources for the blooming hag main that I was, despite him being honestly quite an ass. The dude has made the switch to VHS nowadays.
I actually watch the guy who has 2/3rd of Hag's WRs (he has longest win streak and fasted 4k) streams. He outright refuses to use Mint Rag because of how powerful it is. His main add-ons are Shackles and Teleport Range. He says don't use Trigger Range because the stock range is the same as your lunge. Edit: more detail.
Yup. The Trigger range addons are indeed so bad that they'd actually be good addons if they had the reverse effect. Making the trigger range 10/20/30% smaller. Also: Hi there. :) And yes, I will indeed NOT use Mint Rag.
Hag is my main and i really freaking wish they would touch her addons. Watching all the other killers getting fun addon effects and Hag still having Grandmas heart and Deaf boy's ear (WHICH DO NOTHING) hurts my soul.
16:02 “They’ll put a microphone up to the office washing machine for a new chase theme.” Had me dying right in the middle of my gym when I heard that 🤣
They did a lot more than her trap setting-her add-ons were also altered. Her add-ons used to have a benefit and a downside, like increased trap setting speed at the cost of decreased trap setting range.
nah you're right. That update is why Hag gets ranked high on tierlists now. She used to take FOREVER placing traps. It was a huge buff, which made him saying she was untouched weird. She's just a rare case of DBD doing exactly what they needed to the first time.
is it bad that I actually like playing the hag the most? I haven't bought any killers though so she's the only one I can play okay with (bc she's kind of camp-y to be fair) and I kind of like that no one likes or talks about her much because then people are a little more surprised when you play her and I get to indulge in my old 2016 hipstery guilty pleasure of liking the unpopular thing
feel the same way, i struggled to find a high tier killer I was good at until I said fuck it and gave her a try. Now she’s my niche high difficulty killer I can claim to be good at, because blight and nurse just didn’t work for me
I love your Dead by Daylight videos man. It feels like you bring such a fresh breath of air with your point of view and way of speaking, it feels so much different than just “this is how to play Hag. These are her perks. These are her add-ons.”, I don’t know how to describe it well, but I’ll try. You bring a lot of the sarcastic, detached (not bad detached) vibe that this game desperately needs. I feel people are too wrapped up and attached to this game nowadays (I am no exception), take it way to seriously and invest a lot of energy into its bad parts. They strip it down to its bare bones mechanics and only the meta perks, how to win and not win, etc. You bring the vibe of someone who cares about this game but looks at it as a whole, not just it’s present state or meta, which is refreshing to see. Plus your way with humor is awesome and EXTREMELY refreshing!! Your content never fails to put a smile on my face. Thanks dude!
Of course dude, since I've left this comment I find that when I play DbD I think "eh. lets have fun. who cares about meta" and just enjoying my time on the game much more, and I think your videos are a part of my mindset now, so thanks again!
The starting analogy was amazing man. Like your stuff is funny but as an audience I feel like we don't give you enough credit for how clever your writing and video making is- keep it up!
Hag is my favorite killer. In my eyes she has all the best parts of Trapper and Twins without the downsides. (Though she has weaknesses of her own). She’s certainly very campy, but she has more to her power than that as well. To this day one of my favorite things to do with her is to force a survivor to choose whether they think I or my phantasm is the greater threat. Being in multiple places at once isn’t something many killers can do so elegantly.
Idk how you do it. Your explanations are precise, accurate and well presented. At the same time, you make sarcastic jokes that also further the point and offer additional information. And it's incredibly funny, as well as useful and interesting.
The Hag doesn't need a rework like other recent killers because it already had one a couple of years ago to buff the trap setting base speed, which turned her into a much stronger character. The existing addons are mostly all useful and any changes by BHVR will only be in the negative direction so it's best they are not touched, either. Hag is not meant to be a chase killer, only going at 110% speed, so right there that will confuse the more dumb players on how to use her properly, which is setting traps in advance of chases. She works well for those who figure out the unique gameplay associate with it.
Hags one of the only killers who scares me when i trigger her traps especially if i dont expect a trap like in the middle of no where. Usually i expect them near a pallet or door or gens but sometimes they will just be in the middle of map for no reason lol
she used to have a mud effect when leaving portals so you couldn't attack instantly, she also placed slower basekit - also she wasn't released in the game's "beta", she was release at least 7 months after that beta when the game was released fully on Steam
My guide on hag: Just like trapper, hag has few type of traps. First trap is protection traps. This traps are gonna protect the totems and gens the place you set them. Always place those but dont overdo it. Your max limit for this is 4 traps. Second trap is guaranteed hit trap. This traps are the traps that guarantees a hit. Place this on pallets and windows, teleport the moment they step on it and free hit. Like nurse blinks, this is unavoidable you can down survivors in miliseconds and skip chases with this. Third one is prediction traps. This trap is the trap that you place in random patches of grass near gens. If survivor steps two or three of those, he gets a hit. Fourth one is Plan breaker AKA "You may have outsmarted me but i outsmarted your outsmarting" traps. This traps are the ones that gets chained along traps. If someone does bait your traps, this will catch them off guard. If there is an open area like the fields, predict where are they gonna go.
(15:49) Fort was in the name Fortnite because there's another mode that was being developed before the abandoned it for BR (you can still play it but it's been effectively put on maintenance mode with the community getting the scraps of it's more popular younger, more profitable sibling), where you built a Fort and defended it for an extended period of time. Hence, Fortnite. They restructured and renamed it to Fortnite: Save the World since by that time Fortnite had become a brand.
I may be mistaken but I feel like the hag did get some changes, I don't think the hand addon was there on release and I remember an update that made the traps deploy quicker. Again, I may be wrong about it.
Hag's taking that Twins spot of underused character, I seriously almost never see her and keep bumping into Slugging Nurses, Curving Blights, Trickster downing you in 0.1 milliseconds because there were no walls nearby when doing a gen in the open and, worst of all, Plague players..
As a person working in video game company, the number of people saying that them alone could do better than a hundred of person who have studies and years of practice is an absolute constant. I see it every day and it is always delicious.
its extremely hilarious that Rowby of all people unironically likes RCPD. also the Hag, she needs her trap setting time increased, and also make it to where she can teleport to her traps if the survivors drop a pallet near it or blow up a gen near it, and also making her traps solid with collision as base kit instead of an add on, she would be insane
i know there was the little meme at the end but I've been getting back into overwatch and having a surprising amount of fun. i'd be down for an OW video
A lore reason for Hag being slow would be that she was in a fucked up situation where her muscles atrophied immensely, at least if iirc, it makes sense that rotted muscle would struggle to move a human skeleton but the voodoo magic somewhat compensates for her and allows her to move more maybe? it's a bit of headcannon but eh
@@poopfart9801 yeayea she was basically tortured and tied up until entity essentially gave her a buff and she killed them with some voodoo or the entity did it for her, but she was a little girl that was kidnapped and withered out before the entity stepped in for the save
As nemsis I actually did this with ruin for a good 40 seconds because they were trying to loop with a pallet all of the progress they did went to zero so yep ruin is a great passive.
so many guides and tutorials miss one vital information about the hags power ie trap. i see so many hags lay 1-5 traps for example at a hooked survivor , because they think the trap triangle mark on the floor is the trap itself however its not, there is circumference that can be visibly seen by the hag , this can be widened by add ons, so trap activation is the entire of the trap and not just the triangle shape that appears after youve placed trap. knowing this would improve and help a lot of players who main or want to use the hag. for example putting traps nears window vaults is not a good idea because traps can be activated away from where you teleport too, so why is the triangle mark , its to inform u as hag theres a trap there and its the point of the trap where the hags phantasm appears from and where u as the hag replaces the phantasm.
"Call of Brine" is the new Ruin. But instead of regressing the generator it alerts the killer it's being worked it. It also runs out and needs to be reapplied by the killer, but the survivors also don't know that they're under the effect of Call of Brine.
It's much easier to counter as survivor as well, as you aren't really forced to get off the gen unless getting chased or having to unhook someone. So it improved for both sides. And then Undying had to come along and muck everything up.
No lore excuse for her being slower? What about, I dunno, all her muscles were flayed off her bones, and replaced by the Entity with mud and sheer fucking willpower? That'd leave you a bit slower than at your prime, I'd think. And she's not an old lady, she's a young girl that only looks like a hag because of the aforementioned torture.
I saw a video of a guy testing regression with ruin and without it. With ruin a 99’d gen takes about 2 1/2 minutes to regress to 0. And without ruin it takes over 5 minutes.
Empathy seems like it's gotten uprooted by how powerful Boon: Circle of Healing is. It takes a while to set up a boon, but trying to find an injured survivor and heal them with Empathy would also take a while. With Boons you can set it and forget it, and hopefully someone takes advantage of it, whereas Empathy only helps you find someone who is hopefully in a position to be healed (and hopefully you can get to without being spotted by the killer.) On an unrelated note, it also lets bad players like me see someone healing on a hook, run towards them, and accidentally set off a hag trap, because why would you heal *on top* of the trap?
I really struggle playing with Hag. I find survivors keep blowing through my traps and by the time I teleport they're long gone. She's so slow in the chase.
Hey man, not like I’m here for just the gag, I value your take on any part of this game. Even if you did a trickster vid, which you won’t because you have standards, I’d just kick back and enjoy you furiously roasting every part of his kit and lore.
It is 2023, and they updated the hag! Because ig some developer got lightburned too many times as wraith against flashbang and so BHVR decided they're now only for blinding
I JUST STARTED PLAYING THIS GAME AND HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE AND TRIED TO FIND A GUIDE JUST TO HAVE MY DECISIONS RIPPED INTO AND RIDICULED FOR 5 MINS LMAOOOO
This is why I'm personally hoping for instead of new killers. Killer update chapters. Give us real trailers, update powers and looks for the older killers, aside from Nurse and Doc. So that way, rather then having them feel off in this new environment, they get up to speed, and it doesn't feel like a gamble when playing survivor if you're gonna have a free game, or a hard game.

Okay, but that 16m Terror Radius with Monitor and Abuse though. I've had Survivors walk right into me when they're not walking into my traps.
They have updated her, notably they made it significantly faster to place traps than on release
My man threw in an Armstrong reference and had his outdo be A Stranger I Remain. That’s a pretty meme, exquisite!
"You really Clicked on That. Like, Really?"
Yes, Because The Floran Hag Outfits are the Best Hag outfits. Fight me.
Thumbnail is insanely drawn. Thsts why i clicked it
6:11 are we just not gonna talk about this smooth af transition
I didn’t click on this for the thumbnail. I came to hear you talk about a game I play. And you delivered.
Hags one of the only killers who scares me when i trigger her traps especially if i dont expect a trap like in the middle of no where. Usually i expect them near a pallet or door or gens but sometimes they will just be in the middle of map for no reason lol
7:28 "ruin is the only thing that lets you do that" 3 hours old and this video is already outdated cause legions fuming mixtape
I only clicked this so I can learn and only use the knowledge for completing the 4th tome book challenges which includes Hag and Ace.
she used to have a mud effect when leaving portals so you couldn't attack instantly, she also placed slower basekit - also she wasn't released in the game's "beta", she was release at least 7 months after that beta when the game was released fully on Steam
My guide on hag:
Just like trapper, hag has few type of traps. First trap is protection traps. This traps are gonna protect the totems and gens the place you set them. Always place those but dont overdo it. Your max limit for this is 4 traps. Second trap is guaranteed hit trap. This traps are the traps that guarantees a hit. Place this on pallets and windows, teleport the moment they step on it and free hit. Like nurse blinks, this is unavoidable you can down survivors in miliseconds and skip chases with this. Third one is prediction traps. This trap is the trap that you place in random patches of grass near gens. If survivor steps two or three of those, he gets a hit.
Fourth one is Plan breaker AKA "You may have outsmarted me but i outsmarted your outsmarting" traps. This traps are the ones that gets chained along traps. If someone does bait your traps, this will catch them off guard. If there is an open area like the fields, predict where are they gonna go.
This video was a big nostalgia trip thanks
I always forget Hag even exists and when I do remember her I thank God that Ruin showed up in the blood web during my first month of playing.
(15:49) Fort was in the name Fortnite because there's another mode that was being developed before the abandoned it for BR (you can still play it but it's been effectively put on maintenance mode with the community getting the scraps of it's more popular younger, more profitable sibling), where you built a Fort and defended it for an extended period of time. Hence, Fortnite.
They restructured and renamed it to Fortnite: Save the World since by that time Fortnite had become a brand.
Thumbnail is cutest Hag art I've seen.
0:03 or, or, people who like your video, funny man
I don't play dead by daylight (not my type of game), but love people explaining, theory crafting and giving advice about games.
I may be mistaken but I feel like the hag did get some changes, I don't think the hand addon was there on release and I remember an update that made the traps deploy quicker.
Again, I may be wrong about it.
"The demogorgan can pick where he teleports but he has to ride the Mta to get there"
This just made my day 19 times better
"The only other killer that was minimally reworked like her, to my knowledge, is Myers"
"Pyramid Head has entered the chat"
Hag's taking that Twins spot of underused character, I seriously almost never see her and keep bumping into Slugging Nurses, Curving Blights, Trickster downing you in 0.1 milliseconds because there were no walls nearby when doing a gen in the open and, worst of all, Plague players..
Plague? Weird killer to complain about. She’s neither common nor top tier.
@@Hoosje11
Ever played against a decent Plague in solo queue?
Been waiting for it
15:10 I love how the guys main way to fix dbd would to remove pallets so he doesn’t get looped for 5 gens
As a person working in video game company, the number of people saying that them alone could do better than a hundred of person who have studies and years of practice is an absolute constant. I see it every day and it is always delicious.
its extremely hilarious that Rowby of all people unironically likes RCPD. also the Hag, she needs her trap setting time increased, and also make it to where she can teleport to her traps if the survivors drop a pallet near it or blow up a gen near it, and also making her traps solid with collision as base kit instead of an add on, she would be insane
Bruh. That intro. I was legit hyped when I saw this video’s title and thumbnail.
I worry that now that you've casted attention upon the "Squeek floor board" we're gonna get that fix
i know there was the little meme at the end but I've been getting back into overwatch and having a surprising amount of fun. i'd be down for an OW video
Dang that last part got really nostalgic
A lore reason for Hag being slow would be that she was in a fucked up situation where her muscles atrophied immensely, at least if iirc, it makes sense that rotted muscle would struggle to move a human skeleton but the voodoo magic somewhat compensates for her and allows her to move more maybe? it's a bit of headcannon but eh
I always thought one of her foot was eaten by the cannibals but I'd have to check
@@poopfart9801 yeayea she was basically tortured and tied up until entity essentially gave her a buff and she killed them with some voodoo or the entity did it for her, but she was a little girl that was kidnapped and withered out before the entity stepped in for the save
As nemsis I actually did this with ruin for a good 40 seconds because they were trying to loop with a pallet all of the progress they did went to zero so yep ruin is a great passive.
so many guides and tutorials miss one vital information about the hags power ie trap. i see so many hags lay 1-5 traps for example at a hooked survivor , because they think the trap triangle mark on the floor is the trap itself however its not, there is circumference that can be visibly seen by the hag , this can be widened by add ons, so trap activation is the entire of the trap and not just the triangle shape that appears after youve placed trap. knowing this would improve and help a lot of players who main or want to use the hag. for example putting traps nears window vaults is not a good idea because traps can be activated away from where you teleport too, so why is the triangle mark , its to inform u as hag theres a trap there and its the point of the trap where the hags phantasm appears from and where u as the hag replaces the phantasm.
3:28 she's slow because she's slowly petrifying and needs blood to not turn into pretty much petrafied mud, look at her hit animation
"Call of Brine" is the new Ruin. But instead of regressing the generator it alerts the killer it's being worked it. It also runs out and needs to be reapplied by the killer, but the survivors also don't know that they're under the effect of Call of Brine.
A stranger I remain. One of my favorite songs from Mgr.
When you try to re-work a overpowered perk but make it better
It's much easier to counter as survivor as well, as you aren't really forced to get off the gen unless getting chased or having to unhook someone. So it improved for both sides.
And then Undying had to come along and muck everything up.
If she was made today, she wouldn't be able to attack after teleporting
That outro music was what i was looking for fr
The opening caught me OFF GAURD LMAO 🤣 😂 😆 💀
Hex ruin paired with thrilling tremors works really well with killers like Myres and pig
Stranger i remain without vocals for outro? Ah,i see you are a man of culture as well.
Its good to see a video from you again
No lore excuse for her being slower? What about, I dunno, all her muscles were flayed off her bones, and replaced by the Entity with mud and sheer fucking willpower? That'd leave you a bit slower than at your prime, I'd think. And she's not an old lady, she's a young girl that only looks like a hag because of the aforementioned torture.
I played against a Hag who used mint rag
I was completely oblivious to the fact that this addon exists even though I am with this game since day 1 lol
Love your editing style!
I saw a video of a guy testing regression with ruin and without it. With ruin a 99’d gen takes about 2 1/2 minutes to regress to 0. And without ruin it takes over 5 minutes.
There's something so fitting that the most popular hashtag about this game on Twitter is misspelled.
ive mained hag for 3 years ive been looking forward to this.
this guy roasted my entire taste in killers good grief
I don’t know if I’m the only one who realised this but isn’t pinhead pretty much the new hag with his box but only one and with another ability?
Empathy seems like it's gotten uprooted by how powerful Boon: Circle of Healing is. It takes a while to set up a boon, but trying to find an injured survivor and heal them with Empathy would also take a while. With Boons you can set it and forget it, and hopefully someone takes advantage of it, whereas Empathy only helps you find someone who is hopefully in a position to be healed (and hopefully you can get to without being spotted by the killer.)
On an unrelated note, it also lets bad players like me see someone healing on a hook, run towards them, and accidentally set off a hag trap, because why would you heal *on top* of the trap?
I really struggle playing with Hag. I find survivors keep blowing through my traps and by the time I teleport they're long gone. She's so slow in the chase.
I really think that if u kick a gen and a survivor taps it, they should get a skill check immediately.
I'm a Plague main & I'm awaiting this hypothetical plague video of yours
Dead Hard, DS, BT, and Iron Will. The build that has NEVER FUCKING CHANGED!
Hey man, not like I’m here for just the gag, I value your take on any part of this game. Even if you did a trickster vid, which you won’t because you have standards, I’d just kick back and enjoy you furiously roasting every part of his kit and lore.
Now ladies and gentlemen, we wait for the legion video update
Between Dragon's Fang and MYC with Mint Rag and Rusty Shackles, Hag can drop people insanely fast.
It is 2023, and they updated the hag!
Because ig some developer got lightburned too many times as wraith against flashbang and so BHVR decided they're now only for blinding
I love the dead man's switch kiss
I miss ruin working for me. I loved being able to chill and chase but hex perks are soo bad now for whatever reason that is now.
They're not bad lol they just require actual effort to be made useful
@@julianrosado1592 bro they’re awful. Totems are gone in like 5 seconds flat now consistently
Hag after a perfect win: "Yep even after all these years, *I still got it."*
Rowby, I am a simple man. The thumbnail doesn't matter, I see new Rowby, I click.
NEW ROWBY VIDEO LETS FUCKING GOOOO MY DAY IS SAVED
Their add-ons sound really fun
While you joking about cumogorgon i actually saw hntai with Oni(Minothaur skin), Mikaela and Demogorgon.
This was f awesome
I JUST STARTED PLAYING THIS GAME AND HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE AND TRIED TO FIND A GUIDE JUST TO HAVE MY DECISIONS RIPPED INTO AND RIDICULED FOR 5 MINS LMAOOOO
This is why I'm personally hoping for instead of new killers. Killer update chapters. Give us real trailers, update powers and looks for the older killers, aside from Nurse and Doc. So that way, rather then having them feel off in this new environment, they get up to speed, and it doesn't feel like a gamble when playing survivor if you're gonna have a free game, or a hard game.
Even after so many years in the game, a stranger she remains to me
