Truly, Nurse Is Fine Because of These Main Reasons
It's hit or miss with nurse, they're even super good vets or really bad. Let me go deeper into this.
1. It's 50/50 if you go up against a nurse and they are good or bad. If they are bad that's an insta escape but if they are good then you would probably get booty clapped, especially if you're jane. But the fact that veteran players that don't play nurse much, try out nurse and are not good with her is a huge factor why she is fine. A good killer main can go from myers to Pyramid head and be good with both, but if someone transfered to nurse it would take alot of time to get good and people arnt that dedicated especially newer players.
2. You don't really go against nurses even in high MMR. Don't say you go against a nurse every match cause you really don't. Console players don't play nurse (or atleast good at her), and PC pro nurse mains get tired of her too. Now Nintendo switch nurse mains are bangers. I give all my respect to them. I maybe go against a nurse 1/15 matches and I'm Fairley high on mmr (atleast I think).
3. Nurse is a good fall back for killers, especially people that want to rank up to iri. You get destroyed by a bully squad? Go to nurse and beat some ass. But again this is rare because people don't know how to player her.

Dude, where the hell did all these Nurse threads come from?
30 -
Saying a killer is balanced because many people aren't that good at them is about as good of a point as DH is balanced because some survivors use it into a wall.
50 -
That is a pretty bad comparison ngl. I would see ds because people can't hit skillchecks but DH comparison? Not exactly the best comparison I've heard
0 -
I think there is speculation on a nurse nerf idk, I see people complaining all the time
0 -
So you are saying Nurse is balanced because some people are bad with her?? What lol
28 -
More people re playing nurse because they keep nerfing the other killers. Now people want nurse gutted because she went from 1/50 to 1/20 matches.
It was the same with wraith. the buffed him and more people played him. And with that came the nerf demands.
4 -
More like saying survivor itself is balanced because most just aren't competent enough to play good, and it's actually the way how DbD is balanced.
1 -
Nurse is definitely not fine. Every time I play against a decent nurse, the match turns out like this, and everyone is dead at 5 gens. She needs a nerf and everyone knows it.
10 -
Considering your perks you guys are low mmr. Try to improve instead of asking for nerfs.
8 -
It looks like survivors are on extremely low MMR and killer is on rather mid-high MMR.
5 -
I've seen survivors dc the very second they hear the nurses screech.
It's getting ridiculous. Of course the nurse will stomp the other 3 survivors at 5 gens. Especially when the others suicide on their first hook.
4 -
whether vets get tired of playing her is irrelevant, she has zero counter play that's the issue.
Post edited by EQWashu on5 -
She has countless counterplay that is only available on her and not other killers, I don't think having an opinion based on pure lie is the way to go.
Post edited by EQWashu on4 -
If you want to convince us that the nurse is too strong, record a video of you playing against her.
Then we can see if, before you say she's too good, you are competent when you play against her.
2 -
anyone that has more then 5 hours playing as nurse can tell you she is the most sleeper 4k every game and that is without addons or even slowdown let alone if you slap on 4 meta perks and range addons or something insanely dumb like that
4 -
How is that a bad comparison? A successful DH obviously takes a bit more skill than hitting a skill check, and saying said perk is balanced because some players are noob mcnoobs with it doesn't mean it's not unbalanced, as with Nurse.
Lower her skillcap and nerf something in return. Maybe make her addon Plaid Flannel basekit with a downside, anything really.
0 -
Wait, wait, hold on. Let me really activate the almonds about this video.
If you do good against her, nurse is balanced ggez.
If you don't, you clearly just don't know the right counterplay, skill issue.
Am I getting this right?
3 -
I think its pretty well known shes extremely strong. If you don't know that you haven't been playing survivor very long.
1 -
Yes? why the hell you want to nerf something you can deal with.
2 -
I don't think you understand the point I'm trying to make here.
0 -
No nurse is unbalanced and overpowered. she should get a good nerf in the future so bhvr has an easier time designing the rest of the game.
3 -
How tho
0 -
Her good addons need some spicy nerfs. I am sick of all Nurses I see run the same addons, usualy of course the purple range with fast recharge blinks. Balanced! Haha.
3 -
Specific addons used all times doesn't really mean it needs to be nerfed though.
0 -
What I am trying to say that some of her very popular addons are popular for a reason of course. Her range addons, recharge speed and maybe decrease of fatique all needs to go.
1 -
Here, let's try this.
Record a video of you going against a nurse.
Did you do bad? Nurse is OP, counterplay doesn't work.
Did you do good? Bad Nurse, wouldn't work against a good one, proves nothing.
You see what I mean? The "proof" means nothing. It's a loaded question with an excuse ready for either outcome. But hey, as luck would have it, I have some too.
If you REALLY want to prove it, let's get the most certifiably godly nurse player and put them in a lobby with the best survivor. Then we have some actual variables.
3 -
Just be glad you never played when there was a 3B nurse if you had youd realize how fine she is atm. She takes a lot of work to master and you might not know this but there are objects and places she cant blink through or if she tries she will commit to a faulty location by mistake.
3 -
So you just pretend there is a reason which somehow justifies nerfing her without elaborating it?
2 -
It’s cyclical. She’s just flavor of the month. Next month it will go back to Wraith or Pig.
4 -
What was bad in the past doesn’t justify it being slightly-less-bad now. Bad is still bad.
2 -
Or you shouldn't cuck your team by selfishly disconnecting?
Maybe you should try and learn to play against her.
2 -
cant the same be said for killers? Not using meta? Must be low MMR so try to get better instead of asking for a dead hard nerf.
You people have 0 logic it's absurd.
3 -
I didn't say anything complicated.
People cry because of the nurse.
Then let them show us HOW they play against her.
Then we'll see if they have any legitimacy to complain.
1 -
Yes, she is very strong, I never said otherwise.
0 -
Yes but you said that she isn't too strong which I disagree with and is what I meant.
0 -
-
Where you will be fully able and willing to concede that, indeed, she is actually not okay if it turns out that all the counterplay spoken of really doesn't help after all?
0 -
Imagine saying nurse is fine because she gives someone opportunity to get to iri fast and easy or that she isnt played that much. None of the killers should be like that. Not even survivour should have ability to have advantage so easily against killer but i hope that will change soon with perks reworks. 1 thing is true tho, she is hard to understand at first.

1: 50/ 50 where either the killer can stomp you if they are decent or not if they are not good at nurse------> that doesnt mean the killer is balanced dude you are just saying that people needs to be bad at nurse to her to be balanced? NO
2: "You don't really go against nurses even in high MMR" i go against 1 nurse every 5 games or 2 ...soo this is weird , but same argument you are telling that because console players cant use the max amount of value from this killer makes Nurse balanced? NO
3. You get destroyed by a bully squad? Go to nurse and beat some ass.-------->TRUE BUT you know not everyone is a bully squad in the first place😐️
*Nurse makes bully squad balanced in a bad way (BS POWER vs BS PERKS / GEN SPEEDS ETC) really disgusting matches.
*Nurse however makes solo Q insanely miserable because of the lack of comunication and overal not good teammates and because her power basically ignores looping you just destroy survivor quite easily.
NOTE: stop saying the "be unpredictable" argument thats just not work against a decent nurse and saying that Nurse is fine just because people dont know how to play her is not a argument.
1 -
Omega blink is back due to how her range blinks are coded, I think that’s why
0 -
Its always the same handfull of people in here defending Nurse and if you check their post history you can see why - cause all of them are Nurse "mains" ofc they don't want BHVR to touch their easy mode killer.
4 -
Nurse works pretty well on my xbox series S I don't just put effort to get good at her. Many other killers are just more fun to play as. But im not bad at her still I need game to adjust and after that I do decently well with her. Blight I think is harder if you use his power.
0 -
What are you talking about ? Dead hard has no counter, we play survivor too we know it.
But you are not a nurse player, and you have no idea how to counter her. That’s why your opinion doesn’t really matter on all these nurse threads.
1 -
With MMR the Nurse should be at the same level as the players. Assume they are the same level, then this does actually show indicate that the Nurse needs a nerf.
If not, then I would say that Nurse-players should only be placed with very similar MMR players. It's not fair to have a higher MMR Nurse go against lower MMR survivors, ever. She's the best killer by leagues and should never be placed with lower level survivors. Any other killer is fine being placed with lower MMR survivors, but Nurse is not.
0 -
The nerf Nurse threads offer little value in terms of actually evaluating the killer and this thread is no different.
2 -
Are you thinking this guy faced a good nurse ? Playing with Thana and Corrupt ? LMAO ?
Any good nurse doesn’t need Corrupt, you just blink to survivors spawn and defend gens from there. As for Thana, she is clearly not sweating if she is tying to injure everyone.

How does your reply to my comment make any sense?
1 -
which proves the point even nurse at low mmr is crazy
0 -
I thought you were the guy posting the screenshot of him facing a low mmr nurse and complaining that she is too strong.
I don’t understand your point then. The "problem" survivors have with nurse is that they have NO IDEA how to counter her, don’t want to learn and this at almost all mmr ratings. I did good winstreaks on her and trust me even at high MMR they are clueless. Why ? Two reasons :
- Because they don’t want to learn. It’s way easier to complain. Nurse gameplay is so different from survivor gameplay, you really need to make some effort putting yourself into the nurse shoes to stand a chance.
- MMR is capped and max MMR is not very hard to reach. So you get a mix of good players and extremely good players. It’s still unbalanced.
