They nerfed the only decent addon that nemesis had
Licker tongue got nerfed this patch which was the only decent addon which nemesis had. I'm losing hope for any meaningful balance. I'm glad I uninstalled because this game is getting nowhere and that's a general statement not just this.

They nerfed it because they buffed his basekit, though?
Well, fixed an issue with his basekit, but still. His basekit got stronger in a way that could've made the Licker Tongue too much if they didn't bring it down.

I mean he's got a good amount of decent addons still. Marvin's Blood, Damaged Syringe, the zombie movespeed addons, the wristbands, Ink Ribbon and Licker Tongue is still pretty good I think.

Too much? Hindered works only when survivors infected and hes also need to hit them 2 more times.

There's still a number where that'd be too much, though, surely?
I'm also not saying it was, I'm saying it could've been. To just say they "nerfed his only good addon" would be deeply misleading even if it was his only good addon.

Zombie addons are just not good when zombies aren't good to begin with.

So licker tongue got moved from a good addon down to niche. Well I guess hold W is back in play against nemi.

To be fair, 5 seconds of 20% hinder would've been pretty insane. The only reason it was ok before was because the slowdown itself wasn't as strong as it was supposed to be.

Zombies are a good timewaster, and the addons make them better at doing that.

That's assuming they dont just keep getting stuck or walking in gen dead zones which sticking around gens is their best use.

Before 8.2.0, Licker Tongue used to be 0.25s of 20% hindered, which was added on top of the basekit 0.25s of 20% hindered. So it basically did nothing.
Now it's 1s extra 20% hindered added to the basekit 2s of 20% hindered. Which is pretty significant. If it was kept at 3s it would be horribly overpowered, and also bad design because it would more than double the basekit slow duration, which would make the hindered impossible to balance.
It's one of his best addons now, it's strong, and it is much stronger than 8.2.0-8.2.1 because the hindered was bugged those patches.
