Where you put Freddy in the tier list ?

In the same tier as Huntress and Myers just below Hag. He's not as good as Huntress or Myers but I do think he's in the same tier as them. The gen teleportation and dream pallets are great abilities.

Meh, I find it better than before, and the lullaby is no longer as annoying :D

Freddy's high B, maybe low A. His snares are amazing when used right and that gen teleport helps him out a ######### ton. He's nowhere near as powerful as the big 3 (Nurse, Billy, Spirit).

Regardless he's still somewhat perk reliant.

I’d say upper mid tier

Old-Freddy

Aesthetic - Z minus: Not a critique on Jackie Earl-Harley, but bad-writing in the reboot botched what could have been a new take on the character. If you can't on some level root for a villain, they're a boring villain. Robert Englund is still the definitive Freddy and he's not the one we got.

Thematic - B minus: Seeing someone being picked up off the floor by something invisible is both comedic and spooky; more one than the other depending on context. It's iconic to Nightmare on Elm Street that others can see only part of what's going on. However, it's otherwise been a completely missed opportunity regarding the effects and powers he could have had and his mori almost looks like it's bugged.

Mechanics - D minus: Freddy being helpless in reactive situations where the delay on his active power coming into effect costs him a lot, means Freddy shares a weakness of a lot of killers but it's compounded. In this regard, his power was merely the power to sort-of buff himself into a vanilla M1 killer: the epitome of rubbish and it was a self-buff. The debuff aspect affecting the survivors and his total invisibility to unaffected survivors were the only saving-graces.

New-Freddy

Aesthetic - Z minus: The same as Old-Freddy. No one who actually thinks about how this version of the character was written would want to 'become Freddy'. There is a reason why Wes Craven dropped certain aspects of the character for the version he wrote.

Thematic - D minus: Freddy emerges from a generator, with a big warning, which might be fake but then can't immediately be repeated so there's no longer an immediate threat. He summons bloody reaching arms from the ground, which slow but never hold. It would be better if this was more like something that actually happens in nightmares; when you sense something chasing you but you can't properly run, either unable to see why or you're sinking into the ground. He drags people into the dream with physical-contact; an inversion of what gets done to him in the films and one of the few theme-features that is consistent with the source, though Old-Freddy could do it with locker searches. If they couldn't pick any memorable themes or iconic moments from the films to replicate, then actually researching nightmares might have been a good idea because nothing here seems like a common feature of nightmares.

Mechanics - Total F: He's now a specialist in nothing. He has lots of abilities: two active and two passive, all of which have addons. This is a design where it seems obvious the devs are hedging their bets: that they're going to see how he is played now, what killers try to customise him for the most, then later orientate him towards that as long as survivors are happy. He was reworked because they found him frustrating to play against.

There are issues with making any design jack-of-all-trades but that would need it's own thread.
