Listen, Nitroblaster is incredible and is definitely a must have. But he isn't OP tier, the main reason being that every monster in OP tier is in a league way above him and I will explain why. ( He's also outclassed by some SS+ monsters too.)

First off, Nitroblaster is all about those self buffs via self trait disable. "The Posthuman" Is most likely his best one. It grants him self pierce + PER block + single CDA which is already insane. But there's one problem with that my good friend, he becomes Hookuai's dinner the moment he uses it since that brutal hammerhead can deal massive water damage for 0 stamina and 0 cooldown so using that cda will have no effect on him. Or, you could just use "Support the Organics" and give your team double damage, but there's one teeny weeny problem with that move, THAT EXTRA TURN will trigger Hookuai's anticipation and he could just activate your cooldowns. Not good for business. And there are other anticipators that'll ruin Nitro too like a certain evil eye and that goes for all of his extra turn skills.

Now that we got that out of the way lemme go on to how every monster currently in OP rank bests him.

''For starters every monster in op rank besides Eisul (But he's a tank so why does that matter) is faster than him. That means they can do what ever they want with him:''

Thalassa can trait disable then megafreeze his ass. (Madam Fusion and Ragnarok can also trait disable but whatevs)

Ragnarok, Pierceid, and Sherezar can CDA.

Eisul when he gets a turn in can apply mega taunt to himself so nitro will have to go for him.

Thalassa, Wyrmlad, and Rag can NER when nitro applies his fire weakness or burn and ignite. Did I mention that two of them can heal their team?

A number of them can PER.

Pierceid can possess the entire team when nitro boosts them, making it suicidal.

I probably missed some stuff but I'm just giving you reasons why Nitroblaster is great, but unworthy of OP.
