Freddy is boring
Freddy is boring to go up against, he requires no skill, and anyone can win by playing him. Its the same story every match and it gets to a point where hes just boring.
Just had a match where this freddy had devour hope and thrill of the hunt. He had both power recovery speed addons, his totems were right next to generators. There was nothing we could do, it just made the match boring and unfun because he could teleport whenever he wanted and thrill tier 3 made the cleansing ridiculously long.
Im not proposing or even asking for any changes to freddy, im just wondering if anyone feels the same way.
Whats your opinions on going against freddy?

It is pretty stupid that one of the strongest killers in the game requires so little skill to use well though.

My biggest issue with freddy is that he gets an insane amount of pressure with his sleeping timer without having to do anything for it.
You will always fall asleep mid chase too even if freddy didn't hit you once and you stayed awake before.

You would be surprised how hard it actually is to properly loop and chain tiles together.
You also have to learn how to play against 20 different killers.
Sure,not every killer should be super hard to master but i just think that really strong killers should require some time to master them

I would have done the generators next to the totems first before mindlessly wasting time trying to cleanse them as I knew he has thrill.

I'd rather face 50 Freddy's than a single spirit ngl.
Freddy isn't that bad imo, in that scenario I would've done the generators and stealthed if I knew he'd be nearby. Have someone keep him distracted whilst you're on those gens, wasting as many pallets as needed to keep him as busy as possible. Once the gens are done do the totems, also hunting for the remaining dulls would've helped as that increases the speed you cleanse with thrill up.

I say he is boring bc every Freddy plays the god damn same
Slow add-ons, pop and bbq and plus my team gets down in 5 seconds

We only found the totems when there was 1 generator left to be repaired, and we only just found out he had devour, honestly we were just in a situation where we couldnt win because the killer was defending all the generators and totems at the same time. It was a fair play on his part, i guess me and my friend found it very annoying to try and combat.

Pay to win.

Did you know that running in a straight line with nothing after being hit will waste 20 seconds of a killers time?

Survivors are the strongest killer in the game, yet they require absolutely zero skill to play. :)

I think that people that use the word boring just havent figured out how to counter a killer yet. Its a word that says far more about them than the killer. I whoop freddy all the time. I also lose as him sometimes. Hes not unbeatable.

I just want to point out you had 4 gens dine by the time he got his 4th hook according to this statement...in what world are you not kicking his ass?

Survivor mains who complain about everything they hate being "boring" need to be removed and reworked. Grow a spine you lukewarm passive aggressive #########.
No, they use the word boring to avoid being confrontational in an attempt to hide their motives and make it sound like a well reasoned opinion and not just a knee jerk reaction to getting ######### on in their last match which would be, rightly, immediately dismissed as butt hurt.

Freddo is definitely less effort for better results compared to old Freddo. I only find him truly unfair with false pallets and slowdown perks/add ons. He is beatable even solo, you just need good teammates. His mobility could do with a nerf considering how overwhelmingly good his snares are. Just slightly lower the base recharge.
He shouldn't be rewarded for doing literally nothing. No other killer is.

At least you can loop him with smart decisions, you just have to play differently against him. I know it's hard not to just press m1 and win with your friends, but try it!

Well,there is bloodlust after 15 seconds,we have a lot of killers that can catch up quickly (spirit,deathslinger etc.) and survivors don't always have the possibility to run in a straight line for 20 seconds without bumping into something.

I actually had to put a lot of work into becoming good with Freddy. I lost a lot of games when I started out playing him. My timing was alway's, off. I thought it was dumb that survivors got to know every time I did anything, and trying to keep them asleep was a hassle.
After looking up strategies, and practicing mind gaming / looping. Then trying to synergize perks, and find his weak points to try and fill them with perks and practicing my playstyle - it became very hard to beat me playing Freddy.
Then I started to face even better Survivors, and now I only win maybe 1 out of 3 games (win = 2+ sacs).
People call Freddy easy to play, and boring to face because they don't want to put in the time to learn his counters. They just want another m1, slow killer that you just have to stand next to a pallet and counter forcing Killers to be unable to play mind games.
