He’s not OP. In many instances he’s pretty weak. And very boring for most and uninspired. He needs a rework to be more stronger, enjoyable, and like the real Nemesis.

Nemesis... A normal 115% killer with no mobility that has to hit you 3 times to build up his power which by itself takes a couple minutes against decent survivors.
How is that op ?

I see I’m in at least one out of every five matches. I think he’s pretty popular.

If you use his power and face competent survivors it takes three hits to down, simple to that as to why he's unpopular
1 -
Man I wonder why he isn't liked, it is almost like his kit is weaker Pyramid Head and he was made extremely boring compared to the great series he came from

He is not unpopular, but I wish he was

Can you explain how Nemesis is OP?
Have you been playing the game for a week by any chance and still in low MMR?

Does anyone want to talk about how fraking ugly Nemesis looks. He looks like someone put a cinder block under a long leather coat. People don't play him because he's ugly.

The zombies were his WHOLE uniqueness and they were released buggy and never got fixed, in addition to not scaling based on map sizes.
A good concept, sabotaged by poor coding and a host of far bigger bugs that took away any time to fix the killer's power.
The tentacle thing is plainly a vestige of a different power set that was abandoned at the last minute for the current, underwhelming one.

One of the reasons I never tried him yet even tho I own the chapter.
Seems like I will be wasting a lot of time tiering up. I can tier up more quickly and easily with tp myers lmao. Don't even need to hit people.
And I can kill someone not just put them on the hook if I time it right.

Couple of minutes and that's IF you're running an add-on

Once he gets his rocket launcher I think hell be in a decent spot balance wise.
Hes definitely not unpopular. I myself play him a lot too
1 -
Not in my neck of the woods he's not. I see him quite regularly.
1 -
I quess you are (un)lucky. I see him quite offten. Sometimes maybe too much than I would like tbh. I would not call him unpopular.
0 -
I love punching people in the face with him.
0 -
I only dislike him because more often than not, I know he's going to tunnel the first survivor he finds.
Makes for a boring match. Especially when there's little you can do when you're the one being tunneled other than hold W once he hits tier 2.

What do you mean hes unpopular? If I got one night without facing like 6 different nemesis', nemesi? I'd be okay with that.

He isnt op, or fun, and resident evil fell off a long time ago. Silent hill is better and pyramid head is a better killer
0 -
He's nowhere near OP, I'd say he's mediocre at best, while also being very inaccurate and his Zombies might aswell not exist
1 -
I see him plenty. Also I do quite well with him. It's all about how quickly you can pop tier 2.
I see I am going to shake this up a bit based on responses I see......Nemesis is stronger than PH (IMO) and it's not even a close battle in my eyes. You don't have much defense once he get's going where as POTD is so slow and telegraphed a baby could dodge. Nemesis and Myers shouldn't even be mentioned in the same thread. He goes lightyears past PH if you get value out of zombies.

While he’s definitely not op, he is fairly popular as I see him like once out of every 7-8 matches.

When you play nemesis survivors have 4 health states including dead hard, easy way to lose a game.
2 -
The word 'op' is overused. OP means overpowered (worthy of a nerf), no way in hell does Nemisis deserve a nerf. He has to hit survivors 3 times. Killers like Blight are so so so so much better.
1 -
There are two changes that would make him actually viable:
- When nemesis afflicts survivors with the contamination they gain no sprint burst, only gives them when he injures them with tentacle.
- Crouching next to the window/fence etc no longer gives immunity against tentacle attack.
0 -
When your power gives survivors a 3rd health state it feels kinda bad.
Just play any killer with an Insta down or 2shot and ask yourself why you would ever play Nemesis.

Don’t forget he can punch his zombies to build up the meter too. Sometimes that’s easier than hitting with the whip. 🙂

I got into Nemi and killer as a whole before the MMR rework and, at least at the mid levels, he was both fun and viable.
MMR however just bricked this killer like every other B-Tier and below.
He's got 4 major problems. His Addons are ass and uninspired, his Zombies are far inconsistent and more often then not hinder as much as help, his map pressure is non-existent, and his tier-based power is poorly executed.
He's designed for a different version of the game, one where games go on for longer so that he can really benefit. The best comparison, is that he's a Bubba, but you can't instantly down people.
Though don't think of his infection as a 3rd health state. Freddy was the same way for a long time and he was still a potent enough killer. He gets nothing early game.
Last point is that the "Meta" is for killers that ignore healing, or ones that have high mobility. Nemi has neither of these.

I want to like Nemesis because I love the idea of the zombies in theory and he has a badass look and feel. But his whip feels hard to hit with and the zombies have really inconsistent pathing and are super slow. I think if they gave the zombies a nice boost and pathing fix I’d like him a lot more.
0 -
Unpopular? I face him almost every match.
But to answer the question, probably because he has a weak starting power (Tier 1 and 2 infection is practically useless) and his zombies literally do nothing most of the time.

Nemesis is average and suffers on a lot of maps - on maps that are too open his zombies are useless and on maps that are cluttered they get easily trapped in corners by survivors. He's decent, but has major weaknesses.

Nemesis boy needs a buff
2 -
To start with, they need to replace the zombies with hunters or lickers and give them a big ass speed boost
0 -
I see him more than pinhead
0 -
He really should have an additional ability that gives him a brief sprint under specific circumstances. A Nemesis who can't sprint just doesn't feel like Nemesis. Add that and he's perfect
2 -
Because he is not as overpowered or easy to play as you think he is. Decent survivors eat him for breakfast.
Nemesis is fun, but not that good. Zombies make for pretty funny clips and moments though.

I love Nemesis.
To increase mutation you have to use the whip on zombies, hitting them counts for addons and points, but not mutation.
1 -
Ah yeah, you’re right. Still, way easier to hit a zombie with the whip than a survivor.
0 -
If you solely use the whip on zombies, you are cheating yourself out of an amazing tool. Practice hitting the whip; it has a 'drag' after it lands that takes some getting used to. Like...an actual whip.
0 -
Who said I was advocating only using the whips on zombies?
1 -
Nobody, but I didn't want people who didn't know better and trying to learn him to think that's what was being said.
0 -
He's unpopular because he's just flat out bad. He needs significant buffs.
0 -
Nemesis is far from op. If he's using his tentacle, not only does it give survivors a third health state, but it also gives them a speed boost upon infection which does zero damage. Well coordinated survivor teams take advantage of this like you wouldn't imagine!
3 -
He is not OP by any means. As for unpopular? Idk I see him more often than Hillbilly at this point.
0 -
He definitely isn't unpopular just has nothing that is appealing except that he is Nemesis.
Requires 3 hits for tentacle, Zombies inconsistent majority of the time being bad, No mobility, Survivors can use vaccines so you have to hit them with the tentacle again for contamination, does not play like how Nemesis should play, Hitbox on tentacle is very thin, the tiering of his tentacle isn't that good, and holding his power at windows and pallets isn't as good as other killers who can do the same thing.
0 -
OP? No
Good? Yes
But I dunno why people don't play him much. I won't complain tho
0 -
I never play Nemmy without Marvin's Blood. It should honestly be his base kit rate at this point.
Also people saying he's boring...let's see what they say when BHVR decides to give him the rocket launcher haha
0 -
he should have gotten a thing to where he can use ne-a parasites on the zombies.

kinda like the game
