"Nurse is still the only killer that comes close to looking OP. Now it takes a lot of practice to get that good and you need to make very few mistakes, but she still has by far the highest potential in the game and it's ridiculous that some people try to put Spirit over her in tier lists because they read others say it online."

As a nurse main, who has endured a lot of pain to learn the nurse I have become as a rank 1 I can tell you for certain whilst she is a powerful killer, she is not OP and I would 100%, without doubt put spirit in a higher tier to nurse if not on the same level.

The reason I say this is because I know all the bugs that come with nurse and if a survivor knows them, which some do she is very easily outplayed. I won't go into specifics but in certain areas on maps the nurse could blink aiming up but shoot directly down which would then end the chase. Blinks don't work on certain areas of the maps, again can end chases. Then there is delays on occasions with her second blink swing which is long enough delay for the survivor right in front of you to run just enough distance to miss hit them.

All that said, nurse is still very strong and can dominate most scenarios.

You mean the killer NEEDS to tunnel because survivors hard rush gens yeah. High level DBD play is boring as ######### to watch, its literally just rush gens as fast as you can, get out, don't interact with killer.

i would like to comment on a couple of these points:

1) "Spirit is ovrhyped" - this is a matchup of the best players this game offers. no one says spirit was unbeatable, but a good spirit will still curvestomp 95% of the survivors out there. these guys in this tournament are on a whole other level than a vast majority of this playerbase, just because they are able to beat spirits doesnt mean anyone could do that - also, even though she is so "overhyped" she is still one of the only killers that is picked over and over again by each team, which in itself should be a testament of her strength.

2) "Nurse is still the only killer that comes close to looking OP" - im totally with you on this one, she is definitely the best killer in this game and she is the only killer that could ever be considered to be "OP", due to her gamebreaking ability.

3) "DS is also overrated" - even though you say this, every single survivor team brought the maximum amounts of Decisive Strikes they could (2), so if the perk was so "overrated", why is it that prominent? DS isnt ment to win you the game against a tunneler, it was never designed for that - its ment to punish the killer for tunneling, buying you and your team additional time at the objective. and given the genrush meta, this is huge; if the survivor can utalize the perk well, the killer loses tons of gen progress while tunneling down this one player which makes quite a difference to when the survivor has no DS.

4) "NOED is an extremely strong perk" - now im not gonna say that it wasnt a decent perk, but dont forget the rules of this tournament, the point system in particular. the survivors get huge amounts of points by repairing gens and escaping, so its only natural that they wont give a damn about the 5 dull totems. their goal is to get gens done asap before the killer can get many hooks, so they would rather have one person get instadowned and onehooked in the end, than giving the killer potentially more hooks throughout the game by cleansing dull totems, resulting in a higher scoring for the killer. the overall goal of the survivors in this scenario is to escape before the killer can get much of a play going, the individual escape is very unimportant. people go as far as to dying themselves just so the others can escape to prevent hook exchanges or possibly even another kill from happening. The entirety of this setting disencourages people to even attempt to counter NOED in the first place, which is why i dont think this (this tournament) is a great way of judging NOED's power.

5) "if killers tunnel, survivors dont have the time to do 5 gens AND the 5 totems" - i once again agree with you here, i think tunneling is a problematic aspect of this game, however its not something that can easily be fixed. if the devs introduce more anti tunnel things (e.g. BT + DS), this leads to survivors who have just been unhooked being extremely balsy, annoying the killer as much as they can, as they are now even stronger than the healthy dude who unhooked them (2 health states (that ignore insta downs) + DS), therefore trying to take the aggro on purpose, rather than using the anti tunneling abilities given to them to actually escape and heal up. i do want this to be looked at, but its super difficult to do is what im trying to say.

those were my 2 cents on this topic, thanks for reading ^^
