Which killer has the best map pressure?
To take a break from spirit related posts and other topical debates, thought I’d gather everyone’s thoughts on this.
Map pressure as a killer is pretty important and sometimes difficult to pull off due to either the nature of the map or more commonly, the killer themselves.
So I ask, which killer do you think has the best pressure?
Trapper? With his ability to lock down loops and mind game survivors into doubting their tiles?
Wraith? Able to sneak fairly close and usually get a good first hit?
Maybe Nurse with her wall cancelling blinks, or Doctor with his anti skill check abilities?
You guys get the point, lemme know what you think!

Billy.
His ability to one-shot and his speed make his map pressure unrivaled.

Yeah billy with BBQ is a scary thing to vs, usually when I hear his saw I hop off the gen instinctively to get a head start in case he heads my way. He’s a good one!

Trapper has no map pressure.
Wraith has some.
Nurse has little. By using her blinks, she moves across the map slower than Huntress.
Spirit has decent pressure.
Hag has great pressure.
Demogorgon has good pressure.
Freddy has good pressure.
LeatherFace has no pressure.
Michael has little pressure.
GhostFace has little pressure.
Plague has little pressure.
Doctor has no pressure.
Pig has no pressure.
Clown has no pressure.
Legion has little pressure.
Billy has god-tier pressure.

Nurse cause her blinks can be deadly especially if you sneak up and get the first hit. And don't get me started on the meat plant its nurses blessing when she gets this map.

Unpopular opinion: Hag if she has mastered her killer is better than even billy's map pressure.

She has limited range. Billy does not, save for three maps.

Mostly agree except Trapper and Freddy, a good trapper (unicorn) can really get in you head and make you doubt loops. Making you run awkward tiles a lot and waste lots of time.
And Freddy has insane pressure, his teleports mixed with the rest of his abilities is insane, plus his lullaby you never know where he’s coming from, definitely top tier for me.

Don't have to worry about that if the Hag locks down a certain area of gens and lets them do the ones where she does not have traps, which often happens.

depends on addons spirit with prayer beads, Billy with insta or speed, legion with longer duration, Myers infinite tier 3, hag with shackles and mint rag, omega blink nurse and etc..

Actually got a gen grab with nurse the other day, extremely satisfying.
2 -
Which one would you wanna vs the least? That’s how I’d rate it.
1 -
Same here, also hook grabs are good until the guy on the hook is off then you place a new guy on a different hook :/

On a small map like the game nurse has excellent pressure, on big maps thought she’s terrible.
1 -
Spirit with long post speed addon's if played correctly you would probably get hit at every pallet without anytime to react.
2 -
Not quite as her mobility with blinks can make you stumble across a few survivors

Billy, no contest. It's what makes him the 3rd best killer in the game along with having instadown potential.
Hag can also have extremely good map pressure in a confined area of the map since she can be everywhere due to traps.
EDIT: Completely forgot about Freddy, he also has great map pressure and can make maps like the temple manageable just because of his map pressure alone.

If we are talking about who can get around the map, I would have said Freddy, but it has to go to The Hillbilly just because his cooldown isn’t as severe as Freddy’s. If we are talking about who can lockdown gens the best, nerf or not it has and always will be Nurse. No one can down and get hooks as fast as her, so she will always put the pressure on survivors to rush those gens before she kills everyone.

Raw map pressure would be Billy. Freddy and Hag are honorable mentions, though.

Yeah I always cringe when I load in and here the chainsaw rev straight away.

Omegablink Nurse is the only correct answer.

Omegablink still exists lol. Just not as broken as before.

I’m on console so nurse has never been a big one for me, though the few I have versed the good ones are something else. Can only imagine what it would’ve been like on PC.
0 -
Yeah personally Freddy has the most pressure, as soon as I see the clock on my survivor status I know I’m in for a painful match. Teleports when there’s less gens is insane.
