More nemesis alerts - a LOT more

As far as Grab, Burst and Smash alerts go, I'm actually struggling to think of a reason why we don't use player-nemeses for EVERY single one. I always try and get in the queue when I see a nemesis alert pop up, but they're such rare occasions that this hardly ever seems to happen. I've certainly never faced my own nemesis in an alert.
In the standard alerts, the pre-made villains are fine, but they don't offer anything that a nemesis could - other than the tiny amount of dialogue they give out, and this is only the fault of the pitifully small selection of nemesis personalities that we still have to work with. The villains are still just actors playing the set role of bank robber, radiation junkie etc.
There's no reason those actors couldn't be the ones that players have made. Rather than having a pool of 10-20 alert villains, you could have a pool of thousands.
So anyway: make every alert a nemesis alert. We make better villains than you do anyway, Cryptic.

I mean really? 4 lvl 40 players with nemesis, and you had to pick the ONE without a nemesis for that darn Smash alert...
I want to see more User-made villains ingame, it gives variety! After fighting the lore and contest winner villains so many times, I say that I want so more variety!
MORE POWER TO NEMESIS!
They're fine, but they're not any better than fine. And there's not enough variety there. The nemesis system is a near-infinite pool of resources that's barely being tapped.
Except Ao and Darkness-powered nemeses... Compared to them, Cimetiere, Therakiel and even Gravitar would be cake.
But yeah, I do want me some more nemesis alerts. Seriously, each of the nemesis personalities should give variations of each alerts.
Hell, gimme a nemesis custom alert.
Hell, I can just imagine the epidemic of Single Blade nemesis villains that this would cause, and the literally 5 second long fights that come with them.
This would be a good idea if they first go in and make nemesis villains more interesting to fight first.
Personally I'd prefer if they only used the strongest villains in alerts.... Cimetiere, Jack Fool, Ao'Qephoth, Madam Mayham.... the ones that actually feel like a fight rather than a mild session with a punching bag.
If nemesis villains were on that level, that'd be fantastic
My super cool CC build and how to use it.
I didn't even know about the Questionite.
If they're too easy, make them more difficult. It's a case of balancing out the power sets.
Fix their Potato-Level A.I
Make their BIOS Viewable
Expant the Nemesis System
Also, make their description viewable. For the sake of RPers...even thought I'm not. xP

LOL...
You do realize those "Actual Champion Lore Nemeses" aren't from the lore. But a "Random Button Nemeses". Stand Ins for the player ones.
Or have i just missed the Lilith guy from the "lore".
OK, joking aside...
I know what you meant.
And now that the Nemesis Smashes aren't no longer Smashes, you're lucky to have them stay in rotation more than 3 rounds.

And then up the amount of nem alerts for more varied alerts.
Excellent idea. I approve.
I am LIKING this Idea
It's basically the Shadow Self from Persona 4
"I am a Shadow... The true self..."
because in the end, we are our true enemy!
What about Darkdemonshadowblackevils?

I dunno, we play a game where ALL THE ENEMIES call your character a Human no matter what he actually is! Throwing your character context out of the Window!
and in a game where you can Life Drain and Devour Essence an Non-Biological character
and in a game where Gun Akimbo Aura Magicians with Dark Blast powers can call Air Strike while they grow Angel Wings made of Light out of their Arses while being competitive in RenCen!
