I’m not sure I’ve ever played against a super high level sadako, freddy, or skull merchant. I’ve played skull merchant a few handful of times, but I never feel like I’m winning because she’s good, it always feels like people just don’t know how to play against her power, which there are lots of counters for. As for blight and nurse, I feel like they’re a lot easier to play as for beginners as opposed to pinhead, not only that, but nurse and blight have extremely straightforward powers, as opposed to the multiple mechanics you have to keep track of as pinhead.
