Do you main an unpopular killer?

Options

I mean the killer who's called annoying. The one who survivors call lame and no skill and unfun to play against. To name them Spirit, Hag, Freddy, PH, Slinger, Doctor, Legion those ones I hear the most as annoying. Personally I main Hag. So do you main a unpopular killer?

    Personally no, I main Mikey, and he's one of the more well liked killers in my experience. But as a Hag main do you get a lot of dc's? @WishIcouldmain

    Well, I'd probably main Legion if he still had double BP offerings on him. Definitely the most fun killer to play IMO. When I play killer I'm looking for an M1 style killer that I've still got double BP offerings on.

    Dorito and Doctor seem to be the least liked ones that I play. And Wraith, though people usually just say he sucks as apposed to hating him outright.

    I get a lot of people complaining when I play trapper, who is my favorite. I usually get called a tunneler because people don't like it when I trap vault points and pallets instead of just putting them dead centre in front of a hook.

    I play plague pretty often. If you think survivors would be happy to see a killer that isn't picked often, I can assure you they generally aren't (although as a hag main you probably know that)

    im pretty much maining Deathslinger, Doctor and Legion right now.

    id say im the best with Deathslinger, but Doctor and Legion are also killers i enjoy and play quite often.

    Doc till the end. I use others to farm, but when I need to kill or chase Doc my favourite. I have issues finding stealthy survivors and it's always nice to drag them screaming out of the hole they decided to hide.

    I dont main killer but when I do play as one. I get the most flack as the good Doctor. Not because I'm a particularly lethal killer mind you, but because he can be so absolutely frustrating and annoying to play against.

    Conversely, my main killer is trapper and I've been rolling with that Krampus skin which survivors seem to love seeing.

    I do, actually (I know right GoodBoyKaru isn't a toxic survivor main what- any forum veterans will probably get that joke)!

    Pyramid Head is my current main, I just find him so incredibly fun and rewarding to play. I don't just zone and I do like to actually use his power in other ways (aka through the wall guesses even if i throw the game for it), because they're just so damn fin to do and rewarding to hit, but if I have to hold m2 I will.

    Before that it was Freddy, both old and new, both of whom were pretty hated.

    I can't really call Piggy hated, but newer players have problems with her and a few sisters out there have put together unfortunate stories of camping jigsaw boxes and tunneling headgear all day long. Since neither are my style nor imo help her I don't do those tactics myself.

    Also RNG can be brutal. I once spent a whole game going to jigsaw boxes and finally got it off, was on death hook too, pig found me and I booped their snoot and they let me go.

    They killed me in the end but just leaving me in the game long enough to at least do SOMETHING else was super appreciated. They saw I was struggling, and let me boop the snoot and cut me just enough slack to not de-pip.

    There are a lot of newer pigs that tunnel and camp and do obnoxious things; but most of them are very good and respectful players and I love them.

    I guess he can be fun to play as but i would say it's really boring to play against him

    I main Legion and generally play unfun Killers. Something about sucking the happiness out of people brings me joy.

    I have pretty much every killer unlocked, but I main Legion and Pig. I usually do very well with them (even at rank 1).

    I hesitate to call myself a "main" of any killer because of how much I like to bounce between different characters and the roles themselves, but I do really enjoy playing the ranged killers.

    Ie, I play characters like Huntress (with her bus-sized hatchets that irk some people), Deathslinger, and Pyramid Head pretty regularly. Enough that I have them all at P3 with most of the perks available for each.

    But I have no major qualms with going against 'Slinger or PH unless their player is choosing to focus on unpleasant tactics (which are annoying against any killer), so I don't really feel that bad about using either of them myself.

    I main Legion. I also like playing against them a lot because they don't cause any status effects/afflictions that annoy me (vomiting,sleeping, madness), mending doesn't bother me.

    It's also less common to get hooked right after the first encounter. Legion usually just hits you and goes for someone else. A chance to live a little longer which is nice.

    I don't really main any killer, but the killer I can't stop playing for long is Legion. Getting chain Frenzy stabs is just too fun. I love getting Frenzy downs with Frank's Mix Tape as well, probably the most satisfying thing you can do as a killer.

    I've been playing Doctor almost as long as I've been playing DBD back in 2018 (back when he was considered really weak). When I'm having a bad day, I'll just switch to him for a bit to destress.

    I also main Legion and Hag on the side.

    I switch between Trapper, Legion, Wraith, PH, Nurse, Freddy and occasionally Bubba when I want to shock the hell out of Survivors by not being a complete and utter sweatlord

    I wouldn’t say people generally hate Nurse, but they probably don’t see her frequently enough to consider her unpopular or dislike her as much as the reoccurring Bubba, Spirit Freddy, Doc lot.

    She doesn’t deserve to be hated anyway😌

    i main hag, i love the hag, the hag is queen. she was my 2nd killer i tried after trapper and i just love the play style that is once i learned it's all about strategy. So for 2.5 years i've played the hell out of her even thou lately it seems i get more dc's with her which is a shame because it makes me change my playstyle to murder with extreme predjudice to eh lets mess with peoples heads hit and run in the opposite direction and send em on their way.

    I don’t main but play a lot of Legion. Legion/Pig/Mikey and lots of practice with Blight. Hopefully one day I’ll be good at him.

    I don't main him like I did when he came out, but I do play Deathslinger. People say he doesn't have any counters and picking him is just a gg ez for me. I don't see any of that in him. Definitely an overated killer. And a few people have issues with Trapper, but nobody ever really says he's annoying to go against. They simply don't like having their looping cut short by a hidden trap.

    She is just rare killer to face, so survivors often just cleanse everytime they get sick. Some big brain players cleanse while not broken and go to unhook infected survivor and then go cleanse again.

    I recently played Blight for a few games and its alot of fun, but unfortunatly it the most loopable killer in the game imo so ditched him unfortunatly. Then i saw the stats of red rank killers and he was the worst killer at red ranks and i immediatly understood why.


    If he would be not so loopable, i would main him for sure
