    There all useless except blood warden, and hardly anyone runs that because it's hard countered by 99ing the gates. They reworked his powers, but didn't touch his perks. They do need an overhaul.

    Agreed, but this can be said for many killers really. Look at huntress.

    Who is Freddie? But yeah he has trash perks. Remember me was allright but they nerfed it for no reason to the point it’s useless now.

    Unless a survivor is nearby or injured openong a gate for the survivors isn't a good choice unlesd the killer has noed active anyway. Yeah his perks are pretty much garbage now.

    Yeah a lot of them are very situational but with all the legal issues around freddy right now, I don't know if we will see a change anytime soon.

    I'd argue Surge is better than Blood Warden. In that it's more consistent, not that it's more game changing. Surge is great on every killer who uses primarily m1 and has good synergy with Surveillance. It's like a non-hex Ruin, negating the need to take time to kick gens. Meanwhile, you're already banking a lot on getting a hook once one of the gates are open. If you don't, it's basically like ya had 3 perks the whole match. And it's not like it guarantees much, although what it does grant is quite good.

    Can't argue for Mindbreaker and Cruel Limits tho, they're pretty #########.

    I love blood warden. It's one of the few perks that can get you another 2-3 kills on it's own. I usually have to open the exit gates myself though.

    Fire up is meh, I guess it's kinda nice to stack with brutal or bamboozle. It's funny on myers to be leaping through windows faster than the survivors.

    Remember me is just trash now though. I can't defend it at all....other than it has a pretty cool art work and it feels good to mori the obsession after you get 4 stacks. I miss the days where it could take like 1+ minute to open the gates with old freddy if you managed to get everyone asleep during the endgame.

    It depends how you use them.

    You can use Blood Warden by itself and it's still a good perk, if you use and endgame perk build and you put Blood Warden in it, it can be a really fun and game changing build. It just depends how you use it.

    Now for Fire Up, the only perk I can think of that it's good paired up with is Brutal Strength. It's not a terrible combo and it can be a bit helpful.

    Remember Me is probably his worst teachable, it's a meh perk but I can't think of anything you can really pair it up with.

    So yeah, sadly his perks aren't the best, but you just gotta play well and smart with them and they gotta be paired up with something, besides Remember Me cause I can't think of anything you can pair it up with.

    Blood warden can be countered but most dont even suspect you would be using it. Thats kinda a strength. It can turn the tide if you manage to activate it.

    Remember me used to be good but they nerfed it when they introduced the egc. Now its not worth running.

    Fire up is just a ghetto version of bs, enduring and bamboozle but without the blockage.

    I run remember me kinda frequently, and if there are more than 2 survivors left by the endgame (and one of them is not the obsession) it can really help you secure kills, if its a 1v1 scenario, the endgame is extremely hellish, I have seen so many survivors die by collapse because they were not able to open the game in time.

    Blood warden is the strongest and most memable of perks, if paired with a complete endgame build it is incredibly oppressive and downright evil, one of the strongest perks in the entire game, although, very situational.

    Fire up is a worse version of bamboozle and brutal strength rolled into one. If anything needs an absolute overhaul, it is this one, because why would you bring it when those other 2 do the exact same thing but waaaaaay better

    Freddy legal problems doesn't stop them from changing Freddy perks or his power.

    Only the look of Freddy cant be changed or touched.
