What's Your Opinion On Freddy?
So I just had a 4k game with Freddy in high ranks, I'm currently rank 6, and was against 3 purple ranks and 1 red rank. Said red rank after the game decided to rant about how playing against Freddy is now a "guaranteed loss" and that they would rather face a high tier Nurse. This sparked my mind and I wanted to ask you all. Whats your opinion on the new Freddy now that you've gotten to know him. Is he in a good place, or too strong? I personally think he is in a decent spot, as his teleport has a pretty decent cool- down and you are confined to only generators. On the other hand I think that the stock "Dream Snares" are incredibly underrated, and when placed in common loops can be more devastating then a clown bottle. Let me know your thoughts, I'd love to hear them. :D

I really like him since the rework. I used to loathe the old Freddy.
He in a good spot but he didn't need the whole oblivious effect. I still missed the old Freddy tho cause of his wall hacks.
Personally don't like pallets (snares are both stronger, and less annoying to play against as survivor), the lullaby rather than a terror radius is a bit irritating but not that bad, other than that I enjoy playing as and against him.
Freddy is now good mid-tier. He is no Nurse, no Spirit, no Billy, no Hag. I would also put Michael above him.
Good teams will still win easily against him, but you can have fun with him against mediocre teams.
Freddy main. A tier. He's in a good spot. Super vulnerable at the start of a trial since everyone is awake and his teleport is on cooldown. He has very good map presence, and he's super efficient due to his ability to immediately start a chase on the other side of the map after hooking a survivor. He has lots of counterplay, but survivors get weirdly stubborn against him. Stay awake and drop pallets early. A lot of survivors loop him as if he's a powerless M1 killer and then complain about the snares in postgame chat. Just drop the pallet.
