    Mostly balanced, but because of the size it is a little killer sided

    The devs haven’t released any stats by map recently so it’s just speculation how good or bad Deaddawg is for either side, but it feels relatively balanced. It’s size and good lighting favor the killer, but the map also has some strong loops at the main building and a lot of gameable pallets to run to which help the survivors.

    Just from playing it, it feels pretty balanced -- I'm not super bummed out to get it as either killer or survivor. I think the breakable walls are annoying as a killer, but that's it.

    I think it's more dynamic, it begins favoring survivors if not much interaction has happened, but eventually turns killer sided if walls are broken and pallets are used. I personally love playing it on both sides for this reason. Also, the aesthetic of it is *chefs kiss*

    Some killers do extremely well there while for others it is pretty much the worst map.

    Great for nurse and huntress, awful for myers and pig.

    Multiple extremely safe gens, 2 of which are guaranteed to spawn every match, breakable walls that the Killer has to destroy or they functionally become infinites, ect.

    I dunno. It seems every time I play that map it's good until they break like 5 walls then there is not a single remotely decent loop on the entire map. You can also be spotted from miles away. I don't know. In my personal experience whenever I play survivor on the map my escape chance ranges from decent to poor. I perform very well as killer when I get the map and I feel like there isn't much they can do in a chase.

    Loops are trash, but stealth is extremely easy and borderline overpowered. Worst kind of balanced, but still pretty balanced, in the sense that everyone gets screwed over.

    I'm honestly not sure how to feel about this map.

    From my perspective, getting this map as killer is a guaranteed win no matter who I picked or what perks the survivors bring. But at the same time, survivors use an offering for this more often then Ormand.

    It feels like this map is very heavily killer sided, but the sheer amount of times the noose is burned is making me confused.

    It's a small map so killers have an easier time defending gens. However the map does have strong tiles for the survivors to run so it gives survivors the chance to be able to run the killer with the trade off that the killer can just break the walls and weaken the tiles.

    So I think it's fairly balanced.
