A lot Nurse 2.0 games later - my opinion
First of all: I have previously played nurse without addons and I have played her without addons on the Ptb.
So the only change I experienced was the cooldown. This MINI cooldown. Nothing special. I've heard that you can even get rid of the cooldown completely. She's still the best killer in the game (without addons). With addons the gen grabber Spirit might be better. Great Addon Rework imo. But I still don't like her base. Still too strong if u ask me. Not really a challenging killer.
Btw...: I hate the servers. So laggy and strange. What's wrong with the fog? Whatever. Thanks for the nice rework DEVs. I appreciate the effort you put into this game.

Yeah I was expecting a plethora of doom and gloom topics about Nurse once the PTB hit, but don't see any.
Should I assume a lot of people are digesting big slices of humble pie?

I'm gonna share my opinion tomorrow, after all the testing, but i can agree on the servers.

Did they enable the servers in the ptb?

Yea and they suck as bad as the live ones.
As for Nurse, I've only played her for a few games, but she feels so bad too play. her addons are fine for the most part, but they didn't do a "light change" too her base kit, it's a massive overhaul and it really hurt her. not having the second blink in most chases makes her struggle too catch people. Most chases where you miss the second blink will require you too walk towards the survivor has he gets away and then blink again. If they increased her Movement speed in accordance with the fatigue + blink cooldown then she would be fine, but now I find her worse then Spirit now.

They took the fluidity out of her by putting the cooldown on it. They are obsessed with making killer powers have a cooldown built in...

She wasn't overnerfed, but idk if she's worth of S tier anymore, especially without add-ons. She seems much closer to A tier killers now. And her add-ons are pretty much the same as before : most of them are garbage or for memes and just a few of them are actually worth running. It seems like Spirit has better add-ons than her now, probably even Billy ...

Yeah an addon pass that didn't change much but made what was good less good while also gutting her base kit. Nurse filet.

Its a nerf in the sense that vs those mythical "optimised swf groups" Nurse using anything other than addons to reduce the recharge to 0, and basicly make her a base kit nurse.So really, what it does is narrow the "sweaty" nurses into a very specfic set of add ons, and then the absolute worst thing youd have to deal with would be a basekit nutrse.
And the more i think about it, would we be able to justify some of her new add ons without the nerf? I for one was having hella fun with the matchbook, and if a new killer came out with that exact power, 4.2ms speed and 1 blink, it would be considered a very high tier killer.
And to be honest, can we stop acting like children at every change? the devs dont favour one side or the other, they want every game to be as close in skill as possible, because that tends to create more *fun games*. Games where one side stomps the other consistently are not fun. There is some stuff in dbd that makes certain swf setups and survivor builds overpowered, there are some killers or perks that can seem like they have no counter, but at least they listen and try to balance things.
Chill yall.

Thank you so much. They are not for either side, but for the GAME! As they should be.

I'm sorry to all Nurse mains that they don't have there own Tier anymore. But it opens up for Lower Tier Killers to be buffed and for maps to be more easily reworked.
