"Nemesis is just a weaker Pyramid Head"

Nemesis may not be a great killer, and he may in fact be weaker than Pyramid Head, and PH seems to have been designed with high level DbD in mind, and Nemesis may in fact be an inbred cousin of PH,Huntress and Deathslinger however in spite of all those facts Nemesis has two things going for him:

1) He feels like an absolute Chad to play. PH may be better, but dipping the survivors in salsa just isn't that cool.

2) His pallet game is free real estate. Demogorgon got nerfed for less.

edit:shoot, my clip got cut off, there were 2 more pallets dropped

    I absolutely shred through pallets with nemesis in "the game" he was amazing to play with in that map and the survivors had no pallets left.

    I laugh when I see that offering. An early tier 2 is almost a guaranteed 3k

    The only problem with him I know is forcing his m1 on pallets. It might be because he is a new killer but most people try to m2 on pallet loops making it easy to force a m1 without using the pallet.

    He’s really grown on me. I would like to see the iridescent addons get buffed but otherwise completely happy with him.

    He really is a worse PH though. Nemesis has to basically quickscope survivors.

    The tentacle is finicky around lots of loops, you will place it dead on target and the game is like “nah you hit that barrels invisible hit box that’s jutting out”.

    Every time I miss a PH attack I know exactly why. Nemesis I’m feeling robbed half the time.

    Zombies have a penchant for being useless, caging survivors is super useful almost no matter what.

    Oh and let’s not mention the survivors having essentially ~4 health states~ with an exhaustion perk like SB or DH.

    I love PH but since he was nerfed is very boring play with him, I like most nemesis is more fun play with him although it will be nerfed as usual.

    Nemesis is nothing like PH. They are two very different killers. The entire PH power is based on prediction but nemesis is more towards reaction. He's more comparable to demo or possibly huntress with less range and more considerate zoning.
