Nurse is not balanced

That’s more of a problem of other killers being weak. And as others have said.... why should killer be balanced on the people who are the absolute best, while survivor is balanced around bad players? You can’t have it both ways. That being said, Nurse has plenty of counterplay. If you can’t be bothered to learn, stop complaining.

I agree not every nurse is good but you don’t need to be a god nurse to hit consistently. How can she be balanced when people consider much worse killers like blight and huntress balanced?

Like what? Line of sight blockers don’t work when she’s running metal spoon or I’m injured. Running into her barely works.
Any other counters I’d love to hear them

Stealth is inconsistent and most nurses run tracking perks to counteract this. Stealth in general is just inconsistent

Nurse wasn't designed to be looped like the others. If you can't lose line of sight you're dead. Maybe the person you played against is a survivor main too. It probably how they predict what you gonna do.

Nurse does have weaknesses though. Why do you think she has fatigue AND a cool down on blinks. I've had my fair share of nurse and honestly it depends on how the nurse you are facing is playing. You have to get in their head similar to spirit. Like is the survivor gonna double back? Will the survivor stay at the corner or keep going? Will the survivor vault or fake it? I would love to see a video on you playing against the nurse.

They were good I’m not denying that but I had one chase with her the whole game so I didn’t get a chance to figure her out

I’m on Xbox so it would be hard but I might try if I get one later. Problem was she downed me once and slugged the whole team afterwards so I didn’t get a chance to figure out how she played

I use to main Nurse, and i have to say that when playing survivor good nurses are some of the most fun chases i have ever had, running a nurse is all about getting distance and losing line of sight and tricking her, but here is the problem, I feel your putting all the blame on the nurse and not the map, the game is her best map because of its small size and they recently made the map EXTREAMLY open on the top floor now, if the map was Red Forest that game would have been hell for that nurse.

The biggest counterplay to nurse is not being predictable.
It's easier said than done of course but having unusual pathing can even give the more experienced nurses a lot of trouble.

I see. Well a slugging killer is always hard to go against like slugging billy oni or even bubba. Your team will eventually run out of UBs or bleed out.

wich are around 1% of teams... most cases are solo q having a miserable experience, meanwhile good killers rarely lose even with weak killers.

If anything Nurse needs a buff that doesn't raise her potential for people who are good with her but makes her more accessible to others- only after proper MMR is made a thing though.
Been trying to play her due to the tome and I'll be honest I don't know how people are doing it, trying to play nurse has me wanting to blow my brains out it's just a miserable awful experience one after another.

im talking about nurse, she is way too much for most teams even good teams when she gets decent at the game, and makes the misserable experience to solo survivors.
0 -
and you got those 200 from where? just decent nurses will slaughter most decent teams and above decent (wich are the vast majority of survivors, because we all know most people are decent/average not very good), a god like nurse will slaughter the 0,5% of survivors aswell. she needs more tweaking.

Anyone who says Nurse is balanced never faces good Nurses. That all I've got to say.

Yes you have to. If you play against better survivors, you will hit less, like with every killer you play. Everyone can play with blight. You play a couple of games and allready can get 4ks. Huntress is much harder. No map pressure and you actually have to hit the shots, unless you play with iri head, because that saves a lot of time.

Whelp I can see this topic has devolved into making up imaginary numbers and opinions again.

How to nerf nurse:
Play her untill you become good and you won't be asking for MORE nerfs.
You face a good nurse in what? 1 out of 100 matches? Just shrug and move on, especially when it seems that You've faced SupaAlf in his 4k streak in Gideon's, wich is arguably one of the best maps for nurse.

OP - You pretty much said all the weaknesses for Nurse. The greatest in my opinion is dead hard.
Now I get your frustrations completely when you verse a good nurse player and every blink they do is textbook and out of your control. The current desync on live patch is making nurse pretty much impossible to beat (if they're decent). I'm being hit by nurse and the red stain is still several metres away. Pretty much unplayable.
I see your posts all the time on this forum and you always give fair thought level headed responses and you deserve the same respect. My question to you is how do you make the nurse balanced? While they can phase through walls instantly there is always going to be players that perfect the blinks rendering it almost uncounterable.
I agree with you nurse has never been balanced. You only ever win if they're missing blinks.
Exactly. Something for solo q's to communicate. That would make the game so much easier to balance.

This is correct, Nurse is not balanced. But people will defend her, just because she is difficult to learn, which does not mean that she is balanced.
There is just no real reason to learn Nurse, because you can simply play Spirit, who is almost as good as Nurse. Or you go full ez mode and play Freddy. Back in the day, Nurse was the only Killer who was able to compete with true infinites, Double Pallets and all this stuff.
Nurse how she is should not exist anymore, they should increase her Movement Speed and lower the strength of her power. But this will never happen, this would be pretty severe changes for a Character, even more than the Freddy-Rework.
But yeah, she is not balanced, not at all. Being hard to learn (and because of that played rarely) does not mean that something is balanced.

Just because they are rare I should just shrug it off? Do you shrug off sweat squads running 4 brand new parts?
I’ve said in my original thread that I know she requires skill but that doesn’t excuse her immense level of power. I know if I fought him he was a great nurse but that doesn’t excuse the fact he was able to do that in 2 minutes when we were all pretty spread out.

That’s exactly how I feel about her. Shes A relic of the past in her current form

First of all thanks for being respectful. While I’m not 100% on this nurse has an addon that makes her only able to blink through solid objects. Adding this while increasing her move speed could be interesting.
A more heavy handed nerf could be lethal blinks not counting as basic attacks. This would get rid of her synergy with knockout, the third seal and many others.
