We got Nurse, Billy and Huntress that are all viable without addons. Spirit is really good, but not amazing without addons.

    I would argue that Plague doesn’t exactly need add-ons to be viable.

    Killers who are actually viable without add-ons are Nurse, Billy, Spirit, Hag, Huntress, and Plague. Spirit isn’t AS viable without add-ons but she is still really good and can win pretty easily.

    I haven’t played Freddy to know if he needs add-ons or not :/

    Possibly. It seems like Freddy's biggest strength will be the synergy between his dream projection and Pop Goes The Weasel, which wouldn't be add on dependent.

    I'm running the M1 metaslave build: BBQ, Enduring, Spirit Fury and Ruin. I might try to drop both Spirit Fury and Ruin for Brutal Strenght and Pop synergy so it doesnt feel as stupid to give up chase to kick a gen.

    He's godlike with Thrilling Tremors and Weasel. I absolutely love it.

    he is not red ranked viable. he is still a pure M1 killer, plague borders on this but has synergy with thanatophobia to slow the game down apart from ruin and when all are infected is basically everyone being perma exposed as well as people cant hide, while if they cleanse you cant loop her without getting hit by the damage spit, but early game where she is going around infecting people you can just gen rush enough to where she can't really recover and she will still lose, so overall spirit nurse are still top tier and always viable even without addons and billy/plague are under them where addons help them to be viable but in the end can still be brought down by an entire group of survivors being good, huntress I would say is also in that boat because you can dodge hatchets pretty easily overall most of the time and her slow movement speed makes her susceptible to a lot of loops when she is out of hatchets
