At the meeting with Eve he did take on 2 and win. Trubel took care of the lake problem. In the last episode 7 knight he didn't even get in a lick on the Aubus, it would have worked better of Nick to take one do and turn to Monroe and said he all yours. So why are the writers setting up a weak Nick does anyone see a reason for this?
Is this something to with the object making him the real bad a** Grimm that no one can take down. If that was the case did the Grimm's hide it and not use it?
Not to mention last season's fight with Juliette. Had a stranglehold on her only because she let him. When she decided to get serious, he was down on the floor helpless in a heartbeat and Trubel had to save him. I'm not saying he should have beat Juliette, but at least let him put up a good fight worthy of a Grimm before going down. The fight should have been like the one Nick and Adalind's moms had.
Remember when he was batting tossed fruit out the air blindfolded? When he took on those three alligator guys in cramped quarters? When he took down those assassins the Royals sent. When he was the one saving people, not the other way around? All that years ago... instead of getting better, he's regressing. I haven't been counting, but this season, the number of times he's been competent is probably about the same as the number of times he's been completely underwhelming.
It's getting on my nerves actually. It's just seriously lazy writing making Nick look like a chump so someone else can look good. The show really loses its touch and charm when BS like this happens. Take everyone else up a notch or two, bring Nick down a few, and all of a sudden it makes you wonder what's so damn special about a Grimm anyways.
I thought I was the only who noticed how weak Nick has appeared from season 4 and Season 5. We have seen him really fight but Nick always hold back and I am really tired of seeing him be weak. Even Trubel gets into lots of fight and winning them. Why doesnNicknget beat up all the time. WHY WHY WHY????
