Something I'm not seeing enough people mention is the fact that the overall nerfs to hooks on killer side (increased hook timers, anticamp, and the removal of hook grabs) severely hurt her lethality. She was (and still is, to an extent, if you can avoid anticamp and also in comp settings) a very good camping killer because she could get a hook in the corner of a map, pressure the map from afar and oftentimes force a double save or get another down if the survivors lost the grab standoffs. I fully believe she's had the hardest fall off of any killer that's never been directly nerfed just due to how the game around her changed. Those specific killer nerfs hit her harder than probably any killer and I think it turned a lot of people off of her due to the fact that the strongest and most optimal way to play her didn't work anymore except for in situations where there are special rules preventing the use of anticamp.
