Demogorgon changes

I think we can agree that Demo feels a bit dated at the Moment. Especially his Portals don't really feel too good to use at the Moment.

So my suggestion is, that by holding M2 he can start looking at a Portal and choose one to teleport to instantly. He then presses a secondary action button and immediately digs down a portal without the need of setting one up first. This does however not leave a permanent portal.

Then, i would make it, that the Travel Speed gets increased by like 10% and his Addons get a compensation nerf for it.

Also remove the downside of loosing 2 Portals from Deer Lung Addon.

Lastly i would make it so he can cicle throw portals. Once he can't place any more portals, the first one he placed gets destroyed and he can place a new one. So he never runs out of Portals.

This would bring his Portals more in Line with other Killers without making it oppressive in any way.

Last Note to add: Maybe a longer undetectable on exiting Portals would be nice. I don't see a reason why Springtrap can have such long undetectable but not Demo. Especially since you get a loud notification whenever Demo uses his Portals.

    You may well be onto something.

    If you look at his teleport, it's got setup issues like a trap killer, and similarly can quite easily be undone by Survivors, all for effectively less power/flexibility than the likes of Freddy, Xenomorph, or Springtrap. This doesn't really seem fair.

    It's not like his Shred is in the same league as other dash killers, given he can't turn for hits nor hug tech in any way... at least having a solid TP improvement would help him maintain his macro.

    Also increase the time it takes to remove the portals by 5-8 sec, no reason why survivors should be able to get rid of em so quickly, especially cause it takes a lot of time to place em.

    I honestly think that just allowing him to dig on the spot and leave a portal behind if he has one available would immediately make Demo feel much better.

    The whole setting and then digging thing you have to do when you're not near a portal and want to place one down anyway is clunky.

    Maybe this would be balanced even without placing a portal, but the whole reason the teleport is so fast and frequent is that it has to setup beforehand, so who knows.

    I don't think he should be able to place down Portals infinitely either. That'd probably be too flexible.
