Are there still any nurse mains left?

The only thing that is different about nurse from before her "nerf" was her base kit and addons. The base kit was given a sort of recharge system, a bit annoying but still manageable (3 seconds per charge/blink). The other part of the "nerf" was her addons being changed.

Now atm, she is kinda buggy. However, she is still the strongest killer in the game even without addons.

I don't really know many nurse mains except for this guy:

Don't believe the hype. Spirit or Hag are just straight up better than her at this point if you are being tryhard. Though Hag is pretty boring to play.

Spirit is like 10 times easier to play than Nurse for like 1% less power; and she doesn't have any bad maps. Nurse has a lot of bad maps, and gets cucked pretty hard by thick mist offerings.

I main nurse and have done for the past 4 months or so. I have no comparison to what she was like prior to her current state :( I've gone through multiple variations of addons and find Dark Cincture & Heavy Painting are my favourite combo reducing the blink fatigue drastically and keeping up with chases much easier. I can 4k without it, but find the quicker the blinks regenerate the quicker the chase ends. I only really struggle against SWF or very high skilled survivors, but if there is only the one very good survivor, I usually win by capturing the weaker links.

All that said, I do not find her fun. She has endless bugs, which become apparent very quickly - or at least they did when I started learning her.

Still a top tier Killer, easily. I've only been playing a month, but I started with her as my first, got all the purple perks I like using with her (none of which are what people here consider to be the "meta" perks) and quickly became bored at how easy it was to win. I've moved on to other Killers now and only touch her if a challenge pops up for her.

I recently played a game against a Nurse that completely destroyed my team in what has to be world record time - couldn't have been more than 3-4 minutes before everyone was dead lol. So embarrassing...

Another Nurse main here. Been playing since the game's launch.

Pre-rework it was very easy to learn Nurse and become a top-tier player because you could learn from your mistakes and still catch yourself if you played correctly. This was very fun and, although it was OP, there was a healthy amount of Nurse players versus the rest of the cast at the time.

Flashing back to her rework, most of the player base (including Nurse mains) were simply in enormous agreement that the add-ons inflated her kill rate and made her unfun to play against. Survivors also constantly DC'd regardless of the Nurse not having add-ons, making her unfun to play as. As a result of this, BHVR proceeded to be a buffoon and announce an ADD-ON REWORK (Not a base kit change, just add-ons) just to turn it into a base kit nerf once the PTB came out. Most people were absolutely pissed that BHVR lied about the changes and 'overnerfed' her power, including myself, while a minority cheered them on and said the base kit was needed. The base kit change somehow made it to live servers despite all the backlash, practically erupting the community, and BHVR completely ignored everyone and everything regarding Nurse ever since.

When it goes live, it was broken as expected but they fixed it over time. But when dedicated servers released? Well, you're experiencing the result that was never fixed; bugs from second blinks hardly working at all to getting stuck in place constantly were, and still are, rampant. I firmly believe that all Nurse players would play the game a whole lot more if they got the nerve to admit the rework broke Nurse and actually fix it.

Going forward, there's little-to-no players like me left now. Most veterans left or are in hiatus due to boredom, as I have been recently, and new players don't play Nurse because the rework did nothing but make her learning curve so steep it's dumb. If you still play her you're assumed to be a DBD veteran that demolishes everyone or an extreme pleb that gets crushed. Overall, she's viable but not fun in her current state.

She's still the strongest Killer in the game, so assuming you're pretty good with her, Nurse mains have it good.

She is still the strongest killer in the game but the nerf from her rework aka gutting until not even basekit was fun anymore just like billy she became so boring to play with the game slowing you down whenever it can which prevents what made old nurse to fun and interesting to people

instead you now have blight who is arguably second in line behind nurse for being the strongest in the game and has a comparable skill ceiling + fun factor of being a pin ball

The nurse after the nerfs and with the double CD she has(Self stun from blinking and the recharge system) has effectively rendered her a 115% M1 killer as her blinks if used most effectively for distance only gives you the normal distance despite the restrictions making it harder to capitalize on any survivors you found.

I feel like most of people's fear of the nurse is just trauma from old Omega Blink Nurse which no longer exists.

She really isn't all that special in terms of distance she travels(And thus her chase power) it just throws off people who aren't used to playing against her which makes them think she's op when she really isn't.

Wouldn't say MAIN MAIN, but she's my current next in line after huntress. She's still fun even with the limitations. It still feels good to hit people after blink

The only 'problem' with the baseline nerf is that now you need to think before blinking otherwise you'll get heavily punished

She's still op addonless, and you really just need information perks

I'm relatively new to the game. First DLC I remember getting added was Slinger's. I attempted to main Nurse. I did find her quite fun, but oh my god was learning her absolutely brutal. I eventually stopped trying to main her, not because I didn't still find her fun, but because my irl life got busier and I would usually only get to play 1-2 games max... usually after several days of not playing. Under those circumstances, my muscle memory for Nurse would always get a little off so the first game or first half game were just... bad.

So... yeah. I like Nurse but my schedule just won't support playing her. Now I'm primarily a Deathslinger main with some Legion, Demo, and Trapper on the side.

The kill rate is low for Nurse because she's one of the most difficult Killers in the game, so the average player is going to struggle a lot and underperform in comparison to other Killers.

But when she's used properly, no other Killer is better than her.

She's the only thing that keeps me playing, honestly. That said, the new patch has mangled her beyond belief which, on conjunction with map and hit issues, has brought about what'll likely be a fairly long break. I've lost count of the number of matches I've played today/yesterday where her hits have straight up not worked, gone through survivors, and just locked me in place. Let alone the blinks freezing you, maps having spots you straight up can't blink, and addons being fucky.
