Nemesis. His power works in a lot of different scenarios, isn't overly punishing if you miss, has a hitbox that makes sense, he isn't a buggy mess and the zombies can be fun. The only thing wesker has over him is the chase theme, but nemesis' isn't bad either.

I would rather play as Nemesis as he is less frustrating and overall the better killer. I've been playing against Wesker a lot lately. Not really surprising, since he is new. At the moment, it's pretty fun to play against him. We've laughed a lot in the last two days. He is an object of amusement for swf groups. But tbf most of the killers are.
Edit: I am so broken by the fact that Wesker has become absolute garbage that you can now find me under every Wesker post.

Wesker the voice lines are fun in chase adds something new to the game and his power is fun

They're both bad but Wesker is stronger

-"I would rather play as Nemesis as he is less frustrating and overall the better killer."
This post rings so true. I had a chase today vs a baby Nemesis who has not played DBD months. I also had a chase today against a not so new Wesker. I felt as if the baby Nemesis actually had the edge in the chase when compared to Wesker even though he definitely had the wrong build and was very rusty with his whip.
Wesker needs addons to make his power good in chases where Nemesis already has a stronger power with no addons. That is the pinnacle of exactly what survivors want : killers that are extremely easy to loop and are popular for people to play.
I will say again that Wesker's power is weak because it is a "preset" dash with almost no variability or room to improvise. On short loops it doesn't work well at all. In many vault scenarios you still will not get a hit either. Wesker is good with a pink addon - well so is clown. To be honest that is all wesker can ever be because his power has almost no room for innovation.

I prefer to play against Wesker. I get EXTREMELY unlucky against Nemesis. I'm not kidding you, I got his zombies 24-7 on me, they follow me always, block my pallets and corridors, and I feel like I've got an open wound in a Walking Dead episode. My friends always joke about it, that I'm pretty much a bloody magnet for his zombies. I truly hate it.

Nemesis hits through windows and pallets, is it really a contest?

Wesker because he's Wesker.
Just being a hardcore fanboi of him here.

Nemmy was the reason i back to DbD. And he is still my fav killer.
I love Wesker too tho.

Nemesis. Better music and better power tbh. Hitting stuff with your tentacle is so cool. Plus the noises he makes. Absolute beast

Nemesis actually looks like a killer. Could easily run up to Wesker thinking he was Felix.

Neither. I can't stand playing against any killer that has a power that causes a superfluous animation to be on my screen.

Nemesis feels way more smooth to play, being able to shred through pallets with him is so good, and I love the sound his tentacle makes when it hits a survivor. Wesker rn feels like a janky Blight.
Also personal take, but I don't like killers who talk all the time (Trickster, Pinhead and Wesker). It's funny the first few times but then it gets annoying, whenever he says "seven minutes is all I can spare to play with you" it makes me cringe because obviously after 7 minutes nothing happens, unlike in the original game.

True, i wish we had an uroboros skin so he would look less human.

Nemsis.
Wesker has too many issues at the moment.

I like playing against Wesker, Nemesis is one of if not the most boring killer to play against.

I prefer to play against Nemesis, although both are very fun. Nemmy's power is oppressive in chase whereas Wesker's is manageable. Playing against Nemmy makes me think I'm going down unless I make some good plays, whereas I feel like I could run Wesker for a long time unless I mess up or run out of ground.

If Nemesis is the T800 then Wesker is the T1000 id love to see them comete against each other

not sure yet, Wesker hasnt had time to marinate.

Nemesis has zombies. Even though they're dumber than bricks and useless 90% of the time, they do lead to some good moments. I still enjoy his music a thousand hours later. And I just love his tentacle whip.
In terms of who I prefer playing against, I dunno.

Nemesis, Wesker has mobility and his hindered virus that makes playing against him in solo feel as tedious as Legion or Plague. At least Nemesis feels better in the 1v1 and you can have more engagement other than run as far as possible while staring behind you to loop a pallet once before repeating the process.

Wesker with the correct buffs and bug fixes will easily be both better and more fun.
As it is, wesker is still more fun but absurdly frustrating to play.

Wesker's better and more fun to face, but more deadly aswell.
Nemesis feels like a joke, considering how his infection works; Talk about lazy implementation and attempts to quickly release a Chapter to get some money ASAP.. How come, Wesker's infection applies hindered status effect, but Nemesis's infection doesn't? Talk about logic..
So, just because of the infection alone making it more challenging and bugged tentacle hits, I'll say Wesker. It's a shame, because design and lore wise I'd have prefered Nemesis..

At this stage, I prefer going against Wesker. I find Nemesis quite easy to give the runaround, though I realize I've had a year of going against him vs a couple days against Wesker. So my view might change in future. I've had easier games against Wesker, where I can dodge and keep him occupied for awhile. But I've faced a few challenging Weskers that predicted my moves perfectly and got the drop on me repeatedly. So it's been fun.
