Next killer to be nerfed

I feel like in the back of my mind some killer are getting nerfed somehow. They could actually be balanced, but remember every time one killer is playing four survivors are playing. Just look at my boy Billy. So these are the killers I hear the most they're annoying, too strong or busted add-ons so here's my list.

    Honestly..I do not feel any of them should be nerfed..none of them are overly strong.. although death slinger is the most annoying to me..does not really warrant a nerf..

    that being said probably will happen if one of them constantly get 4k's..

    Freddy

    its probably freddy, just a little bit is needed but if he keeps preforming too well the devs will probably just gut him because he is the strongest killer with the lowest skill floor

    Freddy

    Fred has too much going for him

    Freddy

    Freddy is kinda broken, having so many abilities without needing any actual skill.

    Huntress

    In the forms of add ons, I'd say Huntress.

    Huntress

    Freddy got reworked recently, so I think they will not spend their time on him again right now, same with Doc and Pyramid Head.

    Since Huntress doesn't even have the right amount of addons, I think she is next.

    The devs have already said that Clown is very powerful and that he is on the list to get some attention so I'm pretty sure he will be the one to be nerfed next.

    Deathslinger

    He gonna get that PH treatment. And it's probably gonna be just as effective.

    Spirit

    I voted mostly out of hope, I just hate playing against spirit, and because of that, I never play her myself. Honestly tho, they've said that huntress is on the chopping block for a long time now, so she'll probably the next to get nerfed (right after clowns buff)

    Hopefully they just rework her addons and clean up the hatchet hitboxes a lil bit, she doesnt need anything other than that.

    None of these killers need a nerf, Jeez spirit been nerfed four times now.

    And Pymaind Head twice.


    Hag really and doctor?

    None of these killers need a nerf! More than anything people really just need to learn to loop and mind game against certain killers.


    IG: Not relying on second chance meta perks all the dam time and not knowing how to loop.


    So I really feel none of these killers deserve a nerf.

    Just play both sides adapt and you improve vs a killer you sometimes have trouble with.

    So just learn and adapt from someone who has played survivor horror/competitive games this advice should help.

    Someone with some sense.

    And I agree with you, slinger can be trouble but if he misses and critical moments he is screwed.

    Freddy

    Hopefully Freddy. Wouldn't mind it if Spirit got nerfed, too. And Hag could use a very minor nerf (Otz mentioned a very cool idea in one of his recent videos).

    Everyone else is either balanced or needs buffs imo. Some killers add-ons need a rework of course, but that's a whole different topic.

    Hag

    I feel like Hag requires a rework. Her kit is too campy and she's given free hits. Every other killer even Spirit and Freddy at least both have to chase. Hag just builds a web.

    Probably Freddy one of the devs said they were gonna nerf Freddy on his stream

    Huntress

    I think they've mentioned that Huntress is getting a change of some kind. I'm not 100% sure, and it might've just been them saying they'll make an addon pass for her since she's only one of two Killers that have the wrong amount of addons (the other being Myers, but they're not gonna nerf Myers, right? Right?), but there's a possibility for it to happen.

    Doctor

    People love complaining about the doc and since he hasn't been touched in a while I think it'll be him

    Spirit

    Spirit because she is the most broken out of all of them. The sad part is that her design was intentional.
