Which top 3 killers would be the strongest if they had no limits to use of their main power?
If a killer had no cooldown, no limit to how long they can use their power for, who would be the strongest? They still suffer from regular cooldowns such as hitting survivors or missing them with their power but have unlimited duration of their powers. For example, huntress could hold her hatchets and they could infinitely be charged to practically lightspeed and have unlimited hatchets.
And yes, perks are allowed in your answers.
I think it would be Nurse, Spirit, and Oni in that order.
The Nurse would obviously be the top pick since she would pretty much have no obstacle stopping her and she could teleport
The spirit gives no information when phasing and goes very fast when phasing at base. So, it can be used in chasing and for mobility.
The Oni would be last because he has high mobility and has the potential to insta down survivors, but survivors can play as they would normally against him. It would not matter if the survivors were really good because he has unlimited use of his power.
But who knows? Maybe it could be trapper since survivors could stealth around for the other killers and trapper could negate every resources survivors have to use slowly, but eventually, trap the whole map.
Comment your killers below.

Nurse, Oni, Plague. Nurse because... Umm, Old Nurse. Oni because starting a trial in his power would be insane. And Plague because you cannot loop her, and you cannot run from her. It's like Deathslinger but with no cooldown, slowdown or reload and an insane amount of missiles.
Myers and Plague would be deadly. Especially if they were both running Infectious Fright. Imagine a Tier 3 Myers from the start of the match lol.
not the best, but Ghostace would be usable.
Doctor with distressing and both calm addons could completely prevent survivors from progressing the game in any way on certain maps just with his static blast.
This sounds horrendous lol. Imagine a Legion game. Just constantly mending. 😭
Oni would be pretty much the strongest killer, maybe behind Nurse. He's A tier and not S, because when he doesn't have his power up, he's just a standard M1 killer that struggles, especially with the survivors play very safe at the beginning of the game.
Nurse, spirit, gunner(no reload)
A better question is who wouldn't be the strongest Killer.
A Nurse without fatigue, a Huntress that could infinitely spam fully charged Hatchets while moving at full speed, an Oni with unlimited Blood Fury and instant Demon Dash, a Plague with permanent Corrupt Purge; it'd all be the same in terms of Survivors all dying near instantly. Even Wraith and Clown would become insane if Bing Bong could uncloak and recloak instantly and if Clown's gas just never went away.
The only Killers that wouldn't be absolutely broken that I can think of are Legion and Pig. Having an unlimited supply of RBTs that are guaranteed to kill wouldn't help get downs in the first place, and a Legion with unlimited Frenzy wouldn't be capable of downing people directly (unless they were using Frank's Mixtape, but I'm assuming basekit powers).
Plague can't use her puke in tight loops
Fully charge it. You move at 110.
Her puke is slower than huntress axes. If u hold puke in tight pallet loop u will be likely stunned and loose your power. She can't use power in tight loops just like huntress can't use her hatches
Oni would reign supreme.
And
Freddy already has almost no limits and already wrecks.
But most of all
Limitless legion wall hacks would be tough to beat..
Uh, yeah she can. You charge it up, get relatively close, and unload. I do it all the time, both to infect survivors and hit them with Corrupt Purge.
She is not like Huntress, once she's fully charged she moves at 4.4 metres per second, aka Huntress' base movement speed, and her missiles hitboxes are tiny.
While Blight technically has this this as one of his addons (Alchemist's Ring), that one only resets the cooldown when you hit a survivor with your lethal rush. Imagine how insane Blight would be with infinite lethal rushes.
Spirit's playstyle would be even worse. Phase until you want to end it, then hit a survivor. Go back to phasing then hit them again. Insane mobility as well.
Current Nurse is only a bit worse than the old base-kit Nurse so she probably won't be much even without her cooldown.
Hillbilly without his cooldown (Overheat) would just be balanced. Nothing else to say about him.
If Clown had infinite bottles, he'd pretty much be a better Wraith with the antidotes. However, what I said about him being a better Wraith is wrong as we'll get to Wraith later.
Slinger will be able to constantly shoot a survivor without reloading. He'll be REALLY annoying to play against, even more annoying than he currently is. Shoot a survivor, hit them, shoot them again. Sounds easy at first, but it also sounds kinda hard compared to Spirit. He won't be as good as the others, just more annoying.
Imagine if Wraith could hit survivors while cloaked and then instantly go back to cloaking after hitting them. Speed boost too. Will def be better than Clown. But this is just a worse Spirit.
Oni without a cooldown would just be a more powerful old Hillbilly.
Doc would have infinite tracking but he'd still be weak compared to the others since he'll be the same as vanilla Doc chase-wise. Legion would probably do this WAY better for tracking.
Bubba would have an infinite chainsaw that could only end by hitting a wall, a pallet, or a breakable wall. He'd be pretty damn fast too. Might be stronger than Oni.
GF would be nothing compared to Myers' infinite T3.
Demo wouldn't stand a chance, even with infinite portals. Freddy would be way better in this case.
Twins would be COMPLETELY outclassed by Legion in this case.
Trickster would just suck.
Infinite trap Hag would be pretty damn powerful. She can even teleport from like 70 meters away across the map when someone steps on her trap.
Trapper with no limits to his traps (infinite traps at the start of the game) would be INSANE. Also if he could place traps right next to traps then he could actually make the game impossible to beat.
Pig would still struggle in chases, and I'm not sure how Plague would work.
Gonna have to say Spirit and Oni would be the strongest. Honorable mentions are Trapper and Bubba.
Yeah while the survivor don't use pallet stun u and destroy your power. Why would a survivor refuse to drop pallet when u r holding your puke?
Why would you walk into a pallet?
Then u respect the pallet and wait forever before survivor drop pallet? Just m 1 dude it's much more efficient. U r not instant down why hold it lol.
You really don't know how Plague works, do you? If they're close enough to stun you, you could have hit them. If they bait you, too bad. You've already hit them.
No. Plague puke r slower than m1 @ tight loops.
Infinite Blinks Nurse sounds absolutely insane.
Deathslinger who doesn't need to reload would be super scary.
Oh lord... BUBBA! With infinite charges on his chain saw... he'll just be constantly going 132% movespeed and insta down anyone he comes in contact with. It'll be like his rework PTB where double Iri add ons kinda made him insta down Legion... but worse.
The funny thing is Legion... would be significantly stronger than they are now... but... as long as their post power Cool Down stays the same, I don't think they'd be completely overpowered.
Wraith would just be... Wraith.
Her puke has no cooldown.
yeah that's good but her puke is slow like 8 m/s? Sometimes I see her puke is just near the survivor's head in a tight loop but just won't land on body
Nurse, Oni, Blight.
We know how no cooldown Nurse was.
If Oni had unlimited BF it would easily be one of the most op things.
Infinite Alchemist Ring sounds fun and is also very strong.
Nurse, Hag and Spirit. Nurse with infinite blinks, Hag with infinite traps and infinite range, and Spirit with infinite phasing would basically be the survivor version of hell.
Trapper being able to set traps whenever he wants is probably up there too, though. Same with Huntress with infinite hatchets (and it we include add-ons, iri-head) Plague with infinite corrupt would be pretty bad, but then survivors would have no reason NOT to cleanse.
Nurse, oni,bubba.
Oni, Myers, Plague, deathslinger since he doesnt have cooldown he can shoot as many times as he wants, nurse of course, and i think thats it, spirit aswell i guess. i was thinking about bubba till i remembered windows exists...
Sorry, I don't think what I was implying with Wraith in my original comment actually came across that well. That's my bad, I worded it poorly.
Wraith with no limitations wouldn't be cloaking for speed. He would be uncloaking.
Post-uncloak he gets a massive speed boost for about a second. With no cooldown or cloaking/uncloaking timer you could just spam the cloak and uncloak button the entire game to zoom around at 170%~ish movement speed.
He wouldn't be Wraith, he'd be Spirit but with a Bell.
Nurse, Spirit, Oni
If Blight could attack on his first rush, he'd be broken.
Oni would be quite oppressive
Nurse for sure be unbeatable.
Legion in this mode: sure i can't kill you but you sure as hell aren't making it out
tier 3 is just an m1 kill
Nurse Blight and Oni
