Freddy suggestions
I understand there must have been numerous Freddy threads so i'll keep this short as possible. I main killer and i main Hag and alternate Myers but i've also come to alternate Freddy as well. I've seen his strengths and weaknesses. The biggest strength of course is that he's invisible another big strength is that he is THE BEST KILLER to utilize "Make Your Choice" (close to Hag) and another is that he's short (good for cornfield maps)
What i suggest with Freddy (If he indeed is getting reworked or buffed) is
---- Increase the time it takes for a survivor to wake up the other out of dream world (moderately)
--- Reduce the time it takes to put survivors in Dream World (slightly)
Honestly that's all i feel he needs. Yes he is a perk Killer and must use at least yellow tier perks to be competitive (red ranks) but other things might make him Nurse, Hillbilly, Spirit tier and the developers may or may not want that.. What do you think?

Ok hold on, I've been wanting to use Make Your Choice on ma boi but for that to happen everyone needs to be in Dream World. What's your strategy on this?

You drag the survivor to a hook that is out in the open (much easier soon with the changes to Decisive Strike) and then wait outside of MYC range. Run towards the hook as soon as the unhook happens. If you're using power range addons you can put them to sleep long before you reach them. Use your power to scan around and look for hiding survivors.

Ok so I run Ruin/BBQ/MYC/Nurses. After a hook if you can catch a survivor in your path put them in Dream World then go out of Make Your Choice range. There you go, now on your way back the other survivor may snap the rescuer out but by that time your close enough to down them for the Make Your Choice. Even if you dont get a survivor in dream world after a hook Freddy is still scary at this point because you dont know where he's coming from which is the best thing. If they choose to do a close by gen or decide to heal the survivor they just unhooked thats Christmas! lol
I feel that the set i have is the strongest with Freddy. One of the best things about it is that Survivors don't expect BBQ so they wont go for the counter (lockers) and because Freddy has a shorter than normal terror radius even if they skill check out with Self Care when they start healing again its already to late, Freddy knows where they are.
I get very good results with Freddy unless im on a terrible map for him (Haddonfield, Coldwind Farm and Yokahoma Estate) and because im super solid people really arent use to non NOED Freddy so some of the time they wont even make it to end game because i have such a strong perk set with him. Also i think NOED Sucks on Freddy but thats just my opinion.

@DudeDelicious I droppped Legion completely for Freddy and he's the perfect Killer for me. I get really frustrated playing Legion because i cant afford to make a mistake at all it seems and it severly hurts me so i dont really like them (Legion) I think Freddy is good like at least B tier and i never agreed with any and everyone that said he is the weakest (or a weak killer) People be buggin! lol
Those buffs i suggested would probrably bring him up to Spirit/Billy tier or right below it so i dont think it would be a bad idea, but your right, people would complain.
Also i agree with your comment about people taking Freddy as a joke until they go up against someone thats really good with him. I love it when people try and disrespect Freddy by unhooking right after a hook because im like "oh" "you just got your teammate tunneled lol

Nurses is actually pretty helpful because tier 3 is 4 m bigger than default lullaby radius and it really helps to catch survivors off guard.

i always tought survivor in dream state shouldn't get to see woke survivors, but then survivors should have some sort of way to drawn atention, like a snap or something, but THEN that would be anoying for killer, so whatever.

I tried Sloppy Butcher on him and although its good as well i much rather have Nurses because those survivors that are "NOT" in the dream state can get semi free heals. Basically Nurses puts more pressure on them. My Freddy is a rushdown one

To you it seems like its a waste but to me its definetely not! BBQ is a staple and one of the main reasons i do so well with him at Red ranks. Are you kidding me BBQ is godlike on Freddy! lol
Im not a NOED scrub and im actually really good with Freddy so for me BBQ is a must

I actually use nurses and sloppy butcher. It boosts Freddys already powerful aura reading ability and sloppy slows down the heals so I can almost always make it to the survivors before they finish the heal. It also stops players from healing within your TR which is the only place Freddys aura reading becomes neutralized. When nurses shows 2 or more players aura healing eachother its very satisfying! Espescially when u know sloppy is making those heals difficult :) Its an easy way to keep players asleep because you can easily catch them together, and have a little extra time to get there and be a savage little dream demon!

You should be able to grab even if they aren't in the dream world, maybe? I believe locker grabbing while not in the dream world makes sense, but I don't know about vaults, I do think though that trying to escape the dream world should be like the Doctor's deal but for the other survivor bringing you out, and they pause to fall asleep like a regular survivor would when shocked.

Dude that would truly be a nightmare build! I need to unlock coulrophobias shared first tho! :( When i get it tho I will defs add it!

Almost every survivor who play against a Freddy doesn't care about being pulled in, they get a generous base 7 seconds so they'll just unhook someone or finish off a gen and you can't do a thing.
