Nemesis is cheap

I'm not saying he's the most powerful, but he is cheap.

Zombies interfere with you and rat you out. As for the tentacle, I dodge left or right and still get hit. I crouch and use obstacles, and I still get hit. He's hard for me to dodge altogether.

Sure he may be fun to play as to some of you but I really hate him. The real reason I hate him, because of the Zombies. His more common add-ons make them move faster or spawn quicker after death which by all means, is a lot more detrimental to me and the team then it may seem.

    Crouching and obstacles don't generally work against Nemesis because he was designed for you to hit over low obstacles, which then also leads to crouching failing. He's not Huntress.

    I am sorry, but this made me laugh. Actually complaining about the zombies. Ha ha ha... ha.

    Not randomly, slinger just got fun patched out of him as one of the best chase killers and nemesis is very similiar to him with his chase gameplay so naturaly people moved to him insted and so he's next on chopping block for the sake of fun gameplay for survivors.

    You're probably right, but it still confuses me. Feels like theres so many other anti-loop killers that are a lot more agonizing to go against than nemmy. Plus nemmy has a cool aesthetic and great music, im really not sure how people can hate on him. Boggles my mind.

    His tentacle hitbox is actually incredibly small and requires perfect aim to hit with (and also isn't the best at registering). However, he can drag his hitbox by moving to the left or right (which may or not be intentional, the devs haven't said anything on it at all). Crouching behind objects can really help you avoid it. Here's a video explanation of this from Otzdarva:

    The zombie AI is terrible and they just stare at something half of the time. The only time they can actually pose a threat is if Nemesis is also there so you have choose who to get hit by or if they happen to approach the gen you're working on. They're way too slow to actually do anything. You can easily outrun them if they start chasing you.

    I must’ve missed that video. That was the general sentiment he stated though? I don’t get the hate myself.

    He's not cheap, you just have to learn to play differently around his ability. And, zombies are a minor annoyance, at best. I'd much rather deal with them than Chain Hunt.

    This is like calling for Doctor nerfs all over again. Unimpressive killer at high level, gets a ton of complaints, gets nerfed. I'm just waiting for it to happen at this point.

    the zombies aren't even that useful. Yeah they can push survivors off gens but...

    I just don't see the hate against him. I always have fun playing against Nemesis.

    Zombies when you play survivor: Godly AI, seemingly coordinated with the killer to get you off gens, and do the most damage possible.

    Zombies when you play Killer: An untrained monkey given backwards controls and a banana.

    They're inconsistent. When they're off their game, they do nothing. When they're on their game, they're a bit overbearing. In between is where they should be.

    Nemesis's Tentacle hitbox is really bad and Zombies are useless the majority of the time.

    This Killer is still cheap and no one can change my mind on that. Everytime I face him, he gets at least 3-4k. That, or at least 1 person disconnects against him.

    Don't worry, no one cares about changing your mind. Nemesis is objectively nowhere near op or too easy to play for his strength.

    He gives survivors a 3rd health state inexchange for his ranged attack that has a whooping range of 5 meters. If that's cheap to you then any other killer is cheap as well.

    Meanwhile survivors have to hold a button to win.

    Isn't it 6 meters or so in length? He and his Zombies are still cheap.

    Zombies are so inconsistent. They need to buff their AI.

    Like there can be game where they get stuck for whole match unless you go kill them yourself OR there are matches where they hit some Survivors and patrol gens / camp like crazy.

    I can understand the struggle to dodge the tentacle but at the same time you've gotta realise that being hit by it is essentially an extra health state seeing as the first hit doesn't damage and gives you a burst of speed. So that's 4 extra health states across the entire team or up to 8 if vaccines are used. That's pretty rough to be fair.

    Zombies can for sure be a pain to deal with but they are so terribly RNG based that more often than not, in my personal experience, they don't do that much. Especially when they get stuck on the environment or sometimes will stand still in the middle of nowhere.

    It's 5 meters at tier 1 and tier 2. 6 Meters only when he hits tier 3 mutation. At that point most of the gens are done unless the survivor mess around.
