Matching With Nurse Every Game?

I honestly feel it is inevitable that survivors will soon ONLY match with Nurse. People are going to practice and get disgusting with her as she is the only one that can handle TOP MMR. Which then I foresee another nerf to her because once a killer starts to "overperform" they get nerfed. I am not complaining I am just prediciting DBDs future

    GOod, they're never going to address or make any sort of change that impacts the fact console survivors against PC Nurses is absolutely BS. Nerf Nurse into the ground.

    They cant nerf Nurse. There has to be an illusion that killer is viable, so Nurse will always be Nurse.

    Unless they release patch 69.420 and make Trapper into a God somehow, but I dont see it happening

    I'm not sure Nurse could ever become the dominant pick. Not only does she take massive amounts of practice to utilize effectively, she's a unique kind of stressful to play as well. Make no mistake, she has the highest skill ceiling of any killer of the game and she can breeze through situations most other killers struggle with, but she also has the highest skill floor - a minimal error in a blink or a misread requires another set of blinks to correct instead of being able to naturally adjust from your new position, and it's just not enjoyable to spend a quarter of the game stunned and looking at the ground because she can't move around the map or chase without constantly fatiguing herself. She's also very buggy. Her power is the best in the game, but her QoL is bad and that drives off a lot of players who aren't willing to put up with that in order to be the very best when there's good killers that take less... everything to play.

    Like, Blight's power also takes a ton of practice to use effectively, but he's a 115 that's perfectly capable of whacking someone the regular way whenever his power goes fiddly with the environment, and he doesn't blind himself every couple of seconds. His issue that made many players not want to try him was his awful FoV, and when that got fixed, you saw a still-steadily-increasing stream of players flock to him.

    Everyone's complaining right now about how Deathslinger's nerfs made him clunky and unenjoyable, but Nurse was the alpha tester for that concept of "deal with a strong power by making it feel awful to play." If Nurse was going to become the only killer in the game, it would have happened already. Girl and her mad power gap ain't exactly new, but her playstyle just isn't universally appealing and it won't ever be unless they give her some big overhauls.
