Freddy says thanks!

Yep, thanks for nerfing Freddy yet again. A killer that Devs already admitted they went too hard on him.
If you happen to wonder what am I talking about, is the change about lockers hiding survivors auras.

I'm a Freddy main, with all that it takes. Thank you for making my playing experience with him even harder...

    Wait, wait... WAIT!

    Lockers hide auras of survivors in dream state?
    Wasn't DREAM STATE supposed to be not counterable by any perk "jamming" abilities of survivors?

    ###, Devs... xD

    It seems the only place Freddy has ever been powerful is the same place he will continue to be powerful...in our dreams.

    So that's a buff for Freddy, since he is not the worst killer anymore.

    You can run Iron Maiden as a decent counter. Even if they're asleep and you can't see their auras, the moment the Survivor exits the locker, you'll get a notification, be able to see them again, AND they'll be Exposed.

    I would wait a couple of days with a final verdict and see how it plays out. Survivors can't wake up being inside a locker and they have to leave the locker sooner or later.

    If hiding inside lockers should indeed become a popular play against Freddy; I'll start with checking lockers more often and maybe try Iron Maiden.

    Sure, waste a perk slot to counter a unintentional nerf. You know what? That doesn't even cover it because one of the few good things about Freddy's power WAS grabbing ppl FROM the lockers (if they were dumb enough to hide in one while asleep)...
