"I bought the Killer because he was overtuned, and now I am mad he isn't overtuned anymore"
Things are going to change. That is the nature of a live service game. People who bought OG MoM because it was OP were sorely disappointed when it was changed to be a meme perk.
Kaneki, to my eyes, is still completely fine. Not S-tier, but certainly a solid A and undeniably better than most of the cast.
Really, this sounds like you have more of an issue with Blight (and Nurse) being so strong and remaining functionally unchanged. To that I say, fair enough, I've no idea why they haven't been touched.
I wouldn't be mad about the nerfs if it wasn't for the fact the newer dash killers keep getting targeted while Blight is left unchanged. It's not just Kaneki since Chucky went through similar nerfs as well. What's the point of even buying newer killers when they'll just get gutted after a month? Just play Blight at that point and just Blight. Blight doesn't need to recharge his killer power after breaking a pallet. Blight has safety and security since it's clear the developers and community have a strong bias for him so you have that guarantee he won't be nerfed. Blight is vastly stronger and will reliably get you 3-4ks almost every game and has no map dependency like most of the roster. Blight just does it all.

At this point I want a refund of the cells I spent to buy Kaneki, since this is now twice in one month he's gotten nerfed because of complaints. This is no longer the killer I purchased, and I have no reason to keep playing him anymore since you gutted him.
And yet you do these nerfs where his power has to fully recharge when breaking a pallet, Blight doesn't have these changes a killer who is 5x more powerful than Kaneki, does not. Why is it Kaneki keeps getting nerfed, yet Blight who is vastly more powerful than him gets a pass? Once Kaneki came out the Blight favoritism only became even more apparent with the developers and the community.
If you're gonna make dash killers have to recharge their power after breaking a pallet, then Blight should have to as well

The fact that you're bad at dealing with him doesn't mean he needs to be nerfed.
I main killer dude. I rarely ever play Survivor, and I want him nerfed. He's way too strong compared to the rest of the roster. Yet all the other killers keep getting gutted in patches and the community are calling for Kaneki to get nerfed, yet Blight keeps getting a pass?
Hell even for survivors I'm sure they would appreciate Blight getting toned down to be more like Billy just so Blight one tricks would have to play a different killer. Just go to high MMR and 70% of the time you'll be playing Blights. What's the point of playing any other killer? Just play Blight since he does everything. He has a strong basekit, his power is the best dash power in the entire game and can easily catch any survivor, and he doesn't even have any map reliance. Even on indoor maps like RPD and Hawkins where the map would be a massive detriment for a lot of killers on the roster, for Blight it's just a minor inconvenience
And here's the thing for survivors: The main complaints people have with Kaneki and the same counterplay, are the same problems Blight have tenfold. The most common strategy of bruteforcing loops isn't very fun. So why is it that everyone complains about Wesker, Chucky, and Kaneki doing it, but Blight gets a pass when he's even a bigger problem?
Literally every rebuttal to why Blight shouldn't be toned down is either "but his addons were already nerfed" (despite the fact those nerfs didn't really do anything since his addons weren't the problem and his addons are still stupidly good) or "he doesn't need a nerf" despite the recently released MMR statistics proving otherwise. But hey nerf Chucky and Kaneki right?

I do think a tunedown for both Blight and Nurse is warranted, and I don't think floating ideas like making Blight a 110 Killer should be all that controversial. Blight is also a lot easier conceptually to nerf than Nurse.
IMO the better point of comparison is Hillbilly, who has been the traditional benchmark for what a well-designed strong Killer with no inherent downsides looks like. Billy is also 115%, gets phenomenal and limitless traversal, a dash that's somewhat limited but quite good depending on the loop, and even instadown potential, but he's not fully overpowered per se. He's also a great case study in what badly implemented nerfs to a strong Killer looks like and how we can hopefully avoid that in future. (though I admit, I kinda like the idea of theming blight more around addiction? like maybe an powered up overdose state vs a depowered withdrawal state? idk, might give people overheat flashbacks)
I also think "Blight should be about as good as Hillbilly" is a much easier pill to swallow than "Blight should be nerfed". Though with that said, I'd far rather have BHVR focus on improvements to the game's weaker Killers when it comes to Killer balancing
Finally an actual opinion and general feedback instead of the usual "Blight is fine as he is you're just stupid" bot comments. The Blight favoritism has become even more apparent since Kaneki came out as any dash killer who isn't Blight keeps getting hated by the community and nerfed and there's loads of other killers that require so much thoughtput to use reliably, yet Blight always keeps getting a pass when he's vastly stronger than every other killer both statwise and in power.

I read part of it. The title was more than enough for me.
So you didn't read it. Got it
Well if you did read it you would've seen I went over how it's pretty unfair all these killers get these glaring weaknesses and keep getting nerfed, yet Blight is so high on the totem pole of power and gets a pass. Even after the addon reworks (which wasn't even the main problem with Blight and didn't do anything in the end) he's still the second best killer in the game.

They nerfed Blight when they nerfed his overtuned addons last year I believe? Why do we need to nerf him again.
Did you even bother to read the post? I literally said why

the man’s add ons was obliterated not too long ago
And that didn't do anything as he's still the #1 most picked killer with the highest killrate in the game. Like Nurse he doesn't need addons, all the addons did was make an already overpowered killer even more overpowered.
And even after the addon reworks, HIS ADDONS ARE STILL ABSURDLY GOOD AND MAKE HIM MORE OVERPOWERED!
The addons were never the problem. His power is the problem and always has been the problem. If his base speed was slower then it wouldn't be a problem, since then he'd have a reason to have all those dashes. Hell you could take away two of his rush charges and he'd still be the second best killer in the game, but at least his power level would be more in line with the rest of the roster.
But nevermind that Blight's fine as he is let's nerf Kaneki instead right? After all he's a stupid anime boy and not the beloved Blight.

You just doesn't seems to know his power, he has bunch of downside, and believing blight hasn't gotten nerf is literally objectively incorrect
Name them then. I have a feeling I know what you're gonna say I already got counterarguments ready as I've heard them time and time again from people who insist Blight is not a problem

Blight are fine he do not need a nerf
Explain to me how a killer who is base killer speed and has a killer power with five charges and zero downside compared to the rest of the roster "does not need a nerf." Even compared to the other dash killers he is way high on the totem pole in power. Wesker has only two charges (three during 2v8.) Kaneki only has 2-3 charges and can't down with his power. Chucky only has one dash charge. And all three of those killers got nerfs or are being called for nerfs. Yet Blight is still the same as he's been since he released in 2020
And no, increasing his terror radius and nerfing his addons didn't do anything, as the terror radius and addons was not what made him strong, but how far and fast he could dash, on top of just having a good basekit when not dashing. He doesn't even need addons to be good as his basekit is top tier on his own. His addons only made the rich get richer.
I wouldn't be complaining about him if it wasn't for how awful the rest of the killer roster feels to use in comparison to Blight, and with everyone calling for Kaneki to get nerfed yet Blight is just fine?! Make it make sense!

Why do all these killer weaknesses and counters even exist when Blight is in the game virtually untouched aside from his addon reworks? Xenomorph without the flame turrets is still weaker than Blight. Vecna without the treasure chests is still weaker than Blight. If Nemesis didn't have the vaccines or could damage with tentacle without needing to infect survivors he'd still be weaker than Blight. If the Unknown could damage survivors immediately with UVX he'd still be weaker than Blight.
So why do all these killers have these clear weaknesses but Blight doesn't? Why can Blight see scratchmarks of survivors when using his power but Legion can't? Why can't Kaneki down survivors with his power but Blight can? The power disparity between Blight and the rest of the killer roster is massive and makes me question the design decisions behind the other killers.

No. Teammates would purposely start a healing action to troll or by just being plain bad.
It's either that or revert Off the Record's buff, because as it stands the perk is making survivors invincible.
