I played her once today, but won't touch her until grades reset at the 15th. The less I play her the lower my MMR will be on the 15th and the "easiest" I have it to try to get her Adept achievment.
I've played maybe 12 survivor games since the patch and have yet to see her. It's all Nurse, Huntress, Blight and Bubba - with a single facecamping Myers.
I think when you get a new killer it starts them at the average of your other killer MMRs or something like that versus assuming you are a brand new player.
I played her last night four or five matches. I had a good time, she actually seems to be one of the better feeling stealth killers! 🙂
A funny thing that threw me off sometimes was her lack of collision combined with stealth meant survivors occasionally go right through her when you run up to them before you Manifest, either by accident because they didn’t see you or because they did a spin and just went right past you.
I'm also not convinced regarding the effectiveness of her stealth. Survivors seem to know exactly where I am at all times even though I'm demanifested.
Well she's literally invisible outside of 24 meters while Demanifested, and even within that range she has no red stain, no terror radius, is invisible half the time and is a short killer with a smaller than usual cross section. So she's about as stealthy as you can get in a killer other than a stationary Wraith or Insidious using killer. (Even Wraith can be seen as a shimmer moving around and is taller than her so in some ways he can possibly be easier to spot depending on the situation.
Of course there are a fair number of survivors who use Spine Chill, so you need to be mindful of trying not to look directly at people you're approaching when possible. And if they're on comms and someone is keeping an eye on you that can work against you too, although because of her teleport and invisibility beyond 24 meters she might be a bit less vulnerable to people on comms than some of the other stealth killers.
I've gone against her plenty. I'm actually tired of her already. Just do what I do: escape over and over to attempt to get to high MMR, and get thrown in with unoptimal game throwers anyway.
Aside from her admittedly good visual and audio design, there is absolutely nothing she does that other killers don't do infinitely better.
If you want stealth+mobility, Wraith has equal if not better mobility, an anti loop in the form of his dash and actually effective stealth.
If you want stealth+lethality, Ghostface has proper undetectable status (why does Sadako need a lullaby?) and an instadown.
On top of this, she has some incredibly janky design elements, what feels like it should be a decent secondary objective/passive slowdown that is mostly just completely ignored and is easier to loop than Pig.
I've played 15 games with her now, and she's C tier at best. I've played against her twice, and she barely made an impact. I don't think anyone got more than 2/3 condemned in either game, and the games were a 4out and a 3out respectively, with the 3out being me giving her a pity kill at the end.

You're not missing much. If you played against Wraith and Pig, you played against The Onryō
SBMM ruining nee chapters sadly
Same. I've played against 1 Sadako, 3 Nurses, and 1 Trapper. SBMM made no sense in any of those matches either.
Did you remember to restart the game?
That has nothing to do with it. I allready have the update of course
All of my matches have been today have been with Sadako as the killer.
Okay I finaly found 1 match againts her. It only took 8 games! Time for 8 more I quess!
Get used to it she won't be played much outside of this week of release. I'd rather play Wraith or Freddy then her she's D tier.

Same thing with Artist at her release.
All I have had tonight was her, and one baby Billy.
I'm playing her every game, been around 10 or so so far. Definitely my favorite stealth killer, at least.
Wouldn't sadako be low MMR. If killers actually have seperate mmr
just faced a p3 sadako and she gave me hatch it was very sweet
new killers take the average mmr across all your killers
You missed nothing, cuz its another camper and tunneler xD
Yesterday it was her or Nurse. Didn’t see any other killers. Haven’t played survivor today to know if that’s changed.
She's been pretty rare, yeah. I finally got one later on in the day and rather than use her power she just tunneled and camped me. :(

Is that true? If I recall (and I may be mistaken) new killers are pegged directly below the MMR of your 'best' killer.
Could be, I don’t know the details. 🤷♂️

Why use Sadako when you have free-wins-Blight running around.

Out of 20 games so far, I've only managed to get a full condemned survivor twice.
Her power is niche and her special traits (condemned) are kinda of a let down. Just go play PH he's much more reliable.
Mm. That's the thing.

Remember, Weak killers are fine! just don't expect to see them much and enjoy blight and nurse for 50% of your games :)
Yeah but no
