The second iteration of 2v8 is now LIVE - find out more information here: https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/kb/articles/480-2v8-developer-update

Nemesis is pretty meh

His infection really doesn't do anything at all. Having to infect survivors just for your ranged attack to deal damage feels awful. Pyramid Head gets ranged damage for free, so do the other obvious ranged killers. Why does Nemesis have to go through an extra step? (Inb4 plague, she has the most absurdly strong ranged attack in the game)

Being infected as a Survivor doesn't feel like a negative whatsoever. It just feels like yet another thing the Killer HAS to do just to exist. Nemesis literally doesn't have a power vs an uninfected survivor. Unless you count zombies which get a hit maybe once every four games.

    I like his infection cause if survivors don’t use the vaccine then they will be downed fast by nemeses he’s my new favorite killer I think he’s underrated

    I've been wondering if there's an incentive to vaccinate at all....

    He also feels a bit clunky to play. But i think with a little rework he does just fine and dont becomes the next trickster.

    There is none. As a matter of fact from what I've observed you can still lock out his progression of tiers by just not vaccinating. Forcing him to kill like 8 more zombies with 10 second cooldowns just to reach T3.

    I'd be fine hitting 3 times to down as Nurse. Might be a little challenge to make games more interesting.

    tbh, if they buffed infection so that infected survivors do a worse job on objectives (like a mini Thanatophobia), I think that’d be sick.

    He's quite hilarious, I don't understand how people could be making fun of Trickster not being scary...well...Nemesis makes me chuckle everytime 😂.

    It's quite sad that they didn't even make an animation for injections.

    I'd place him literally right underneath Pyramid Head. So like solid A tier. He feels exactly like an easier, more streamlined and less punishing version of Pyramid Head. Map awareness through zombies that can alert you to survivors if attentive (but which require no effort on your part), a power that's easier to hit and faster than PH's but has a prerequisite.

    I knew this was gonna happen. Nemesis in DBD is nothing compared to Nemesis in resident evil. I always said "I don't want Nemesis just getting run around walls and pallets by teenagers like any other killer" and that's exactly what happened. They didn't do Myers justice, I didn't expect them to do Nemesis justice.
