    I don't have a problem with Oni's power, but I do think it becomes broken when the devs have obviously updated maps to have MORE DEAD ZONES. Which means that there is literally nowhere to go.

    as easy as dont get hit, as long as u play safe u can make an oni lose a game by safe looping and rushing also if really bothers u run calm spirit he wont get any information never (also if he got u the safest bet is letting him downing u fast so he wont get enough blood, a tiny advice, he will need another hit and that may be better than giving him the down and also his power), also is a good perk because lots of billy and nurses run infectious fright so u are countering 3 top killers that appears oftenly at the same time with just one perk because sadly they use infectious and to counter a perk (not an ability) u need another perk in this case. a perk being countered by another perk, is how it works. if u dont like him dont play him, if u dont like to play agaisnt him is also fine u dont need to like every killer i also dont like going agaisnt oni but i do have some fun when i play him (wich i dont do it too much), just dont get hit is an m1 115% killer till he gets that.


    however i do belive that topknot could get a nerf that addon makes oni kinda unfair.

    OP: "nerf Oni because I don't like him."

    Get out of here with that!

    First off I'm an oni main and love him to bits so watch your mouth second hes easily countered just run him around a jungle gym so he cant charge you and his kannabos animation takes a sec so you have plenty of time to dodge also just dont play him if you dont like him dont be a petty minded person and ask for a nerf just cause your to slow to run him around during power mode also hes perfectly balanced

    "Hes boring because I cant figure out how to counter him 😭😭😭😭😭"

    The lamest and most frequently used argument on this forum

    Read back what you just said to the Internet.

    "He is basically a better billy once he gets his power"

    "once he gets his power"

    This is why he's not automatically better than Billy. Billy doesn't have to acquire his power. Billy has his power all the time, 24/7, no ifs, ands, or butts. Oni has legitimately nothing until someone is hit. He has no power whatsoever and can do nothing but M1 until he has enough blood to turn his power on. And once his power runs out, guess what? He has to earn it again. Even bad Survivors can effectively hinder Oni's ability to have a power by just healing, but good Survivors can EASILY make use of the fact that only is not only a pure M1 Killer at the start of the match, but also is incredibly large and hulking, making him F-tier for M1 mindgames.

    Billy has to deal with, you guessed it, none of that. He has his power all the time. Forever. With no drawbacks.

    If Billy was rendered useless by Oni, everyone would play Oni. But guess what? Everyone still plays Billy.

    I wonder why.

    The only thing that really needs to be nerfed is the rate at which he gets his power once he has it once. He always seems to be in power late game and that makes it rather difficult. But honestly? I run into Oni maybe once a week. He's not really that big of an issue and I'd rather the devs focus on killers that REALLY need nerfing: Like Freddy.
