Demogorgon Power Cooldown

Hi everyone,

I was thinking about something. Actually, I am 50/50 survivor/killer and when I play as the Demogorgon, I find that he is underpowered. When I go against him, some players are ok, but well. In anyway, I find that the Demogorgon is a low tier killer because of his power: using the portals.

Yes of course when he comes out from a portal he doesn't have a heartbeat for few seconds, but in "real life" he actually doesn't need a cooldown to travel in a portal.

The point is: SHOULD WE BUFF THE COOLDOWN AS NO COOLDOWN AT ALL?

According to me, because you need a first portal to travel to another, it already makes it harder to abuse telportation and put pressure on survivors.

And if we think about it, why should the demogorgon would have a cooldown to enter a portal? I would compare it as if a survivor would have a cooldown to repair a gen after having repaired another one.

I would like to know what you think about it. Do you think I'm wrong and why?

    I don't find the cooldown to be an issue, but rather the travel speed. The lung add-on should be base-line imo. The default movement speed while teleporting is so slow that half the time you get to portal, scratch marks are already starting to fade.


    I get that portals are not used to surprise survivors and get free hits. But spending the extra 1 - 2 seconds to get to your portal while a survivor is finishing off an important gen means you can't do anything about that.


    Usually when you travel to another portal, you spend the duration of that cooldown chasing/kicking/breaking/hunting in that area. You shouldn't really be pinging between portals as you most likely find an objective in the area you just travelled to. I can imagine it being annoying for survivors too, if you are constantly teleporting, making the global roaring noise every 5 seconds lol.


    Demo is scary because of the lunge, not his portals. The portals are okay but If you want effective teleporting, play freddy.
