No he's not OP. Learn how to counter him. Thank-you BHVR for having a balanced killer in the game. Please look at balancing some of the weaker killers to be in the same standing as this one.

At low ranks any killer can be "op" because many survivors kinda suck, and one weak link can be devestating in a team game, but due to the emblems these bad players could be getting positive reinforcement anyways.
I had a game where I was just messing around as Pig and they couldn't even do a single gen even when they at one point had 2 people on a gen on the other side of the map I STILL somehow got across before they could pop it.

and I am rank 4 and he isn't OP

Why is that every single low ranked survivor just cries 'Killer OP' just because you haven't learnt how to counter or outplay the killer. No wonder BHVR keeps nerfing crap into oblivion. Can't have these newbies having to learn or anything these days!

I just wish Freddy took some skill. He's pretty balanced power wise.
2 -
He isnt OP, he just makes it a challenge, which is needed in a game. The only thing I find annoying about him is the pallets other than that I love to go against and play as him. You will get better at going against him when you hopefully get competent teammates.
0 -
His slowdown was changed and that was the only problematic part of him. As he stands, he is entirely balanced.
3 -
I personally think his Add-on combos can be a little crazy when combined with pop and such but other than that. He's fine

Freddy is in a pretty good place. Just learn how to counter him. I enjoy going against a good Freddy bc its different than a standard match.
4 -
You don’t even give an good reason why he should be nerf and you said “ ive veen playing this day (5days)...” playing for five days yeah killers are gonna seem op to you cause you have never played against them before. Just learn how to play against Freddys or watch videos on how to play against him. You can even grab your friends to help you like playing kill your friends and see how he works. Also can you please give more of an reason why he should be nerf?
0 -
You're still a potato. Once you watch some streamers and learn something as the devs suggested killer to do, you'll be but dancing and clicking in no time. Just take time.

For you low-ranks survivors any killer can be OP and impossible to escape,Freddy is balanced and don't need any nerf or buff
0 -
Pretty sure OP is being sarcastic. That was his first post and the bait is real y’all.
1 -
I liked the old freddy where it slowed you down in dreams, the new one is definitely not as tough and not op
0 -
Lol! Is this a serious post?!?! Maybe you are just not good and need to learn how to play against him. Maybe try to get some skill. How are you going to exist in the real world. What happens at a real job where you are challenged? Are you going to tell your boss you can’t do it bc it’s too hard and too much work? Lol! In the real world you get fired!
1 -
It is not impossible to get away from Freddy if you figure out how to play against him. Watch some youtube videos if you need help.
1 -
We are joking but someone has really voted up this thread
0 -
Thank you for this. I've been saying for the longest that survivors are the ones killing this game because the devs cater way to hard for you guys. No hateful intentions here, get better like the others have stated.
1 -
bwahahahah ######### off. Learn his mechanics and git gud.
1 -
Bait 6/10

Freddy is one of the better killers which means if your team is around your rank or lower there's a good chance you're going to get demolished. This is why communication is extremely important in dead by daylight to me.
0 -
DS, BT and Adrenalin NERF ASAP.
0 -
Its perfectly fine for a killer to take survivor knowledge and mind gaming to be strong over physical skill like nurse and spirit
3 -
The biggest problem is dead care about players whining so they need, then patch, then balance. I know the game is moderately popular so what do they do change everything that made it fun. How to fix the problem undo everything they changed put your big girl panties on and stop caring about the whining. It's impossible to please everybody so accept it and STOP TRYING. Example the routine dc on the doctor.

Freddy is strong and matchmaking is #########. These things combined make him OP on low ranks.
But "nerf ASAP" is the worst idea Ive ever heard.
Learn to play against him, advance ranks, wait for matchmaking fix or get better perks. There are many things you can do instead of crying for nerf.
2 -
No thank you for DS and maybe BT. I don’t care about adrenaline so they can do whatever to that. DS has already been changed and it’s for punishing tunneling, plus it help solo players. I wanna know your idea for BT though with its nerf. BT is also for punishing killers that tunnel, but I see why some people want it nerf.
You probably did this as a joke though-

Crybaby. Freddy isnt hard at all. Im not saying i win every match afainst him i definitely lose a couple. Youve got to understand that youre not supposed to be able to win every game. Winning isnt a sure thing and youve got to accept that. Guess what....Youre not playing acomputer. Youre playing another person.
And honestly, i think its hard to play with Freddy. I prefer using Pig or Hag.
1 -
Ds gives you 60s invicibility against everything, not only tunneling. I dont agree about BT, because its fine, but I think the guy meant that Freddy doesnt need a nerf in the first place.
0 -
Strange how only bad survivors thinks killers is OP..
0 -
If anything Freddy needs a buff. He's well rounded sure, though it takes no skill to play him. Anyone with an hour can figure out how to place snares or pallets. Freddy nowadays isn't really threatening on either side.
0 -
How strange, i went against a few freddy`s today and all 4 escaped every time... hmm why could that be? maybe it was on you or your team? nah! must be OP killer please nerf so he cant injure next time
2 -
freddy really aint that bad . i escape rank 1 freddies, all be it pretty sweaty but its doable for sure, just remember if ur red ranks and someones about to be hooked and the exit gates open, just leave your teammate or youll probably get blood wardened
0 -
With the way things currently are, nerfing any Killer would be a very bad idea.
0 -
played vs Freddy "a couple of times" at rank 13 - Freddy OP. lol
0 -
He's not OP, just stay awake dude
2 -
So this what a entitled survivors main looks like. It's really sad. Freddy can be countered so easily. One run calm spirit. If he has snares you running into them wont matter because he wont know unless your in front of him. The best way is to literally stay awake. His power is useless if your awake so stay awake its simple.

I know a lot of people are commenting that he is balanced and the post author should just get good, but there might be some truth to this post.
The first time I got to play freddy was yesterday. I had one of those shards that let you play as a license killer. First thing that happens in the match is someone DC's. Next thing, another survivor comes right up to me and lets me down her and sacrifice her right away, no struggling when she's on my back. The last two try to play it out, but there's no hope for them at that point.
They were rank 7 - 5's , half red half purple. They must of assumed I was a high ranked freddy main and given up before the match even started.
How often does this happen in high ranks?
Running him with surveillance seems to be OP if you can TP to any gen when it turns yellow. I haven't done my research on him yet.
0 -
I mean, if they're serious I think I can guess why:
DS and BT are defensive perks people have taken to using offensively.
Tbh, imo BT's only issue is that Deep Wounds is just garbage. They should really make it survivor only and rework Legion imo. Then they can do stuff with it.
DS's only real mechanical issue imo is the locker cheese and the frustration when you hook someone else and then get the first again and get punished for essentially doing too well. (Though I am a bit annoyed they buffed it to 5 seconds because Enduring countered it hard, then when they made Enduring Pallets only, didn't touch it, but that's just nitpicking :P)

He needs to lose the gen slowdown add ons. He shouldn’t get free gen slowdown for no reason with no effort required. He could go afk and still get that effect on survivors.
1 -
trust me, all that is needed to survive lately is having two hands :)
0 -
What would you have them do instead?
0 -
Hmmmmmm the only thing I find dumb about freddy is his hitbox is dummy huge for a tiny glove hand...
0 -
Lol Freddy is one if the few killers that can counter Bullshiit map design with his teleport that only activates after a long cooldown. If you are complaining about dream snares or pallets, then you are clearly a potato. In the end. He is an M1 killer.
0 -
You mean more skill than survivors holding one button on a generator?
0 -
If it was for punishing tunneling it wouldn't last 60 seconds. If they want it to actually do that, make it so that it deactivates either after another survivor gets hooked or once the survivor with DS leaves the terror radius.
0 -
Ok. We'll deactivate DS outside of Terror radius. Now GF, Wraith and Pig (not me btdubbs for example) will now be conformed notorious tunnellers! They just activate stealth and ignore DS completely!
I get why you want to change it this way, BUT, with all the terror radius manipulation in the game it's going to break it. We already have so many issues with BT and similar effects.
0 -
I don't see the problem with some killers being better against certain perks then others. Its like certain survivor perks are better against certain killers.
0 -
Now, one for the OP. A lot more killers are a joke these days, after you learn how their powers work.
Freddy and Doc are my gold standard for killers. Skill to play, Survivor pressure and the ability to slow/stop loops.
0 -
It's more that DS and BT are meant to be used against your stereotypical stealth camper or campers/tunnellers in general and adding this clause will literally negate the entire point of the perk and promote more toxicity from killers.
0 -
While now it promotes toxicity in survivors who think they are gods because thier perks carried them?
