Fredbear
I'm kinda scared to touch or play as freddy anymore. He is getting nerfed we know that but how much will behavior destroy him? Is he going to be like the old freddy again? I mean they are nerfing everything killer and buffing everything survivor. They dont care about killers and I main wraith and freddy atm. Wraith is casual(he sucks dog poop so why try hard with the worst killer in game) and freddy(when I want more then a single kill per game or get tired of being called trash). Any suggestions on new killers to main?

Freddy is ""probably"" going to still be good especially when played by more skilled individuals they will probably just reduce the flexibility of his kit which would only really have an impact on new players that just spam abilities rather than actually use them properly and get the similar mileage

Idk man. Freddy is going to be hit hard. Its obviously not add on nerfs or they would of done it already. It has to be something like a mini rework. Let's hope they dont nerf him to the ground like they claim they dont do.

You should probably stick with Freddy, He’s easy to use for low skilled players

Well if you're debating whether or not to main freddy then yes you are probably a low skilled player, I haven't touched freddy in over 14 months because it feels dirty, just like spirit.

Freddy isn't OP. He has counters. If your smart enough your learn to counter him. Nurse requires no skill. Kinda easy to tell you both aren't killer mains your just here to be toxic. So lets hear it. You killer of choice, rank, perk loadout and add on. With freddy im rank 1, I use basic add ons, I run thanat, nurses, sloppy and bamboozle. I've also played since beta and I've participated in tournaments before. I've looped Octava and lived to tell the tale. I dont actually play a whole lot of freddy tbh. I only play him at rank 1 when im in the mood to be sweaty.

Add ons for freddy i use are nacey sketch and outdoor rope. Easy to come by in the web and work well with my perks.

They are nerfing everything killer and buffing everything survivor? How much bias must one have to even claim something like that?
So many map changes and reworks have been made that Benefit the killer. Freddys rework was a huge buff, doctor got a substantial buff, leatherface got a substantial buff, and now Clown is also getting one.
And lets not forget all the other small changes that helped killers, like nerfs to many of survivors items and addons or the repair speed nerf when multiple survivors work on one gen.

Main a killer you like and find interesting regardless of the skill ceiling or how difficult it is to play them. I started playing Freddy when I first got the game and still consider him my main, but I also have started leveling up other killers I like and hope to main my favorite killer once I find out for sure who that is. Play whatever killer looks fun, and start leveling them up and play a few games of them with good perks to decide if you want to keep investing blood points into them. Even if Freddy does get nerfed hard playing him now and playing him smart (placing snares in effective locations instead of spamming them in chases, learning when to teleport and when to cancel teleport to fake out survivors, etc.) will help prepare you for that nerf and make you a better Freddy player than people who don’t play him smart and use his ability effectively.

Leatherface isnt a tier,, hillbilly sucks, doctor is B tier and is easy to loop. Reworked maps are almost always survivors sided. Killers everytime they get a good setup gets nerfed while survivors keep combos for 3 plus years. I play both sides buddy. They favor survivors more then killers.

Holy crap. Surely latherface and doc aren‘t top tier, but they certainly are much stronger than they used to be. The devs are obviously trying to make killers that need help stronger, not to Mention the killer they have been releasing for a while have all been at the very least decently powerful, or extremely powerful, like Blight or Twins. Also if played right doctor isn‘t easy to loop at all. Time his Shock right and you deny survivors the ability to use any defenses they have.
Im also not sure how hillbilly sucks now, i still see People being able to do extremely well with him.
But please, could you tell me what map reworks actually benefited survivors? Cause i cant think of any.
Its not like i disagree with all of the complaints concerning killers, but just the way people like you express them. Instead of giving proper criticism you just immediately accuse devs of only caring for survivors and acting like 8 year olds. Like its honestly just emberassing at this point. Simply asserting to name calling like in Kindergarten, that‘s how it seems.

Freddy is currently the easiest killer to learn and get consistently good matches with, he can do with some nerfs, it won’t be ground breaking.
they confirmed it won’t be a rework in the scale of Doctor or the previous Freddy rework.
there have been plenty of killer buffs and survivor nerfs, and it is very clear that the devs care for both sides, well it’s clear if you are not completely biased yourself. Just because they are not listening to the vocal minority doesn’t mean they don’t listen to Player Feedback.

Got scared this was gonna be another FNaF post

All they have to do is make him not as spammy; once people have to actually think and decide when to use his power and manage his resources properly his skill cap will go up but his overall power will only go down a little.
Right now you don't even need to think much to play freddy, his powers can be used almost all the time without consequence so you just sorta...spam them.
