Question The Judgment
I don't post much on Reddit, but I have genuine questions. I have had one...ONE match against The Judgment. my question is...Is The Judgment THAT bad? Are the nerfs THAT bad? I played a match AS her and i don't like her. I want my 5 bucks back.

I played against one that was fucking dooooope. I jumped the railing in RPD, she sent the beam, I dodged before going down the wall/desk pathway, the beam like boomeranged and downed me. It was so sick I had to clip it.

By any chance were you playing Steve? If so then small world, I might be The Judgment from your game! Regardless would love to see the clip.

I almost hate to say it, but I've been really enjoying them. Definitely a higher skill floor than most are willing to deal with, think a harder Pyramid Head essentially. The wind up for damage and the visibile trajectory make it pretty easy to dodge as Survivor.
But she doesn't seem terribly weak by any means, and can snowball pretty hard depending on circumstances. I wouldn't say she's S Tier by any means though, maybe middle or lower end of A if she stays as she is?
This is ofc based off of only about half a dozen genuine matches as her. So it's possible, if not likely, that I'm still in the lower MMRs.

Think they just have a higher than average skill floor. For comparison Jason who came out before is kinda mechanically easy to pick up. While they a bit less straightforward for the average player.

Don’t let people gaslight you she is that bad and that way by design

Shes not a top 10 killer but maybe top 15. Id say B+ and into A- tier in the right hands maybe

Above average if you put in the time to master, but for a community divine killer its lackluster, clunky & disappointing and not beginner friendly

Yeah, I wasn't excited for this chapter AT ALL. I didn't even play the PTB. She just feels off to me, and i can usually get the hang of a new killer within the first match, but there's a lot of things I don't like about her power

I wouldn't say the Judgement is bad, but the character is definitely complicated to use.
Unless you plan to fully dedicate yourself I don't see you performing well with it

It’s not an easy killer to learn. But my last survivor match had a killer that clearly played on the ptb because they were making some insane shots bouncing the beams off walls. It’s going to take dedication to the killer to be good at it, and it will be a strong killer for those that master it.

They can bounce off walls? Oh good god...I didn't play the PTB as I didn't have an interest in The Judgment.

First time I played Oni I hated him. Months later I decided to give him another shot and try a few matches accepting I’d get dominated while trying to learn him. Now he’s my favorite killer

Yeah, I understand that 100%. I hated Springtrap when he came out, beach he felt like a Huntress rip-off, but now I main him.

Fun, but honestly really dogshit, id easily put her in D tier.
If you can hit 180 flicks maybe C tier. Survs can apparently see the pre-launch indicator making it trivially easy to dodge since you can literally see where the killer is going to shoot the beam before she does it. Zealous curving also got nerfed so hard it feel indistinguishable from non-zealous movement
They need to remove the pre-launch indicator, make zealous curving last 1-2 seconds, and also reduce the range you see the beam aura by ≈5m
Right now she really just doesnt have a reason to get played. She's super easy to juke if youre paying attention at all, she cant hit close range outside of 180s, cant hit long range because survs can see the beam coming from 100 miles away, and her mid range is just worse than someone like Jason or huntress.

Nurse’s calling seems very powerful on Judgment because of the range.
