So I just read the Spirit nerf and uh..... what's the big deal?
Like really. What are all these people crying and being dramatic about?
Her basekit was not touched. She should've never had collision to begin with. MAYBE, you can argue that the window vault changes were unnecessary because mind games are a part of her character.
And then all of the add on nerfs were either very small, or in the case of prayer beads MUCH needed and justified. Literally everyone, survivor or killer main knew those were OP.
So like, what is this HUGE overkill nerf people are crying about?

As a Killer main who doesn't want weak killers or killers that take no work to use well, she needs more changes. She doesn't need to be weak, but she needs to be tweaked.

Old rule, whoever tries to derail the conversation and makes someone else with valid point be ignored because they don't agree with them should be ignored :)
A lot of people thought she was too strong and they just confirmed that they also think so. Stats would be nice, but not required in this case because she was generally accepted to be very strong, possibly too much. Either way, changes need to be made for the sake of health gameplay the same way old legion needed changes. Not the ones he got, but something needed to change. We don't want her to be Legioned, but she needs to be changed. I just used overpreforming because that was the word used recently. You can sub it for whatever word you want, the point remains the same.
At least personally the problem I have with the Spirit nerfs is that she wasn't nerfed enough. The problem I have is that they didn't fix the two core issues with Spirit, being her lack of feedback and low skill ceiling. They didn't change any of her animations to be easier to read beyond her vault animation, and didn't remove her ability to brainlessly track injured Survivors. All they did was apply bandaid fixes to problems that people on Reddit who know nothing about balance bitched about the loudest.
There is no big deal. Her strongest aspects aren't nerfed at all.
People will still hate facing her because she is almost no different, and then people will say 'WOW SHE GOT NERFED AND STILL SURVIVORS COMPLAIN XD'
I think it’s fine, the nerfs aren’t anything to worry about. The collision change is the only one that’ll really make difference and even then most players don’t need to rely on collision to find survivors.
