Is Oni the most well-balanced killer in DBD?
I came to bring up this topic precisely because I play with it a lot.

Is using the term 'Strong but Fair'' correct for the oni?

He can't exactly use his power all the time like blight and billy

The lengthy early game can also make him suffer a lot of pressure in the game.

I feel like Wesker is currently the most one. Why? He is strong on the right hand but need to be put some effort to be really great. Oni feels more like a "nerfed" billy on this moment but a buffed one before the rework. Wesker have a little bit of slowdown thanks to the infection, movement thanks to the power to traverse maps to some extent, is simple but complex to master some bumps, can be used with many builds withotu feeling cripped by it. Demo by that standard is the most balanced one but i feel like is more niche in more matches than this 2.

unable to use power all the time is inconsistency to me since its one of the best ability you can wipe all of the survivors with one power or you cant even use it after a harsh early game so it also makes it not fair at all bubba is my take here (not including camping bubbas)

Honestly he could use a slight nerf since most ppl only use him to tunnel straight off the hook. Also i would take a thousand onis than having to face yet another wesker...At this point the game should be called Wesker by Daylight.
nah, oni is probably the least fair killer in the game. like, my teammates give him his power and now he uses it on me? what's fair about that? lol

But what you said doesn't justify a nerf, but rather a buff for solo survs...

Nerfing a killer because casual players or beginners don't know how to play against it doesn't make sense

The right thing to do was to buff mechanics and quality of life for solo survivors (perhaps a more complete tutorial explaining the basic mechanics of each killer) and making the tutorial prominent on the home screen (kind of important to learn)

Solo surv or swf it doesnt matter since wesker can just sit on the edge of the hook and when they go for the unhook he just dashes in and gets the unhooker and the unhooked with a 2 in 1 damage pack. Ive seen ppl bring insidious of all things just for this ♥♥♥♥...

The only balanced killer in DBD is -- Skull Merchant.

Reasonable imo. However id still say that Demodoggo is still more balanced.

I would say the current Wesker and Demmo are the closest to the most balanced killer.

Pinhead could be too, if Coconut didn't find out that annoying pinhead build.

I think so, but mostly broken against solos
