What’s your least favourite killer to play against?
Title
For me it would have to be unfunslinger, i don’t even have the slightest bit of fun playing against him. i think he’s badly designed, getting shot then hit feels undeserved and the instant ads just doesn’t make you feel like you actually got outplayed.
i know people say “just break LoS” but that isn’t a valid counterplay, you can’t always do that and technically you can say that about any killer. it’s like saying the counter to genrushing is by getting hooks.
but that’s just me, what’s everyone else’s least fav killer to verse?

I actually agree. My record against him is 2-12. Just terrible luck against him. His shots are so fast. Scott Jund did the math. You cannot dodge his shot. No, seriously. You can't. If you do the math of the speed of the shot across said distance, the reaction time of the human brain, and the time it takes for your inputs to affect your character, the shot is literally undodgeable. You can't dodge his shot, and if the attack didn't hit you it was because HE MISSED.
Now, Freddy is awful in that I think he's badly designed. I don't think the Deathslinger is inherently bad design, I just hate facing him.

Hag for sure, she’s my least favorite killer to play as and against.

Ghostface and Myers. The reason being is that when I was a new player, I wouldn't look around much and they would suddenly appear right next to me as I was on a gen. Scared the crap out of me every time.

Nurse. I hate going against Nurse. I'm not lucky enough to only get the incompetent 99% that everyone insists exists.
1 -
Hag and a good nurse.
There is literally nothing you can do as a survivor to avoid a good nurse, and hag is just hag.

i hate legion, i was never a fan of mending simulator

Toss-up between Freddy, Hag and Spirit.
Spirit because guess i'll just die if i'm injured, Freddy because guess everyone else'll just die, and Hag because oo wowie she hooked me, wonder what cosmic gigabrain move she'll make oh there's the 6 traps right next to me.

My least favorite is hands down Nurse. If it's a baby it's an easy win and it feels bleh; but even then if they just get lucky they can still get someone and it feels unearned either way.
If they are good it's just GG pretty much every time. It's not very interesting to play knowing there is no chance of winning like 20 seconds into a game.

Freddy... I can NOT stand that man. Drives me more crazy than the doctor and that's the whole purpose of doctor.
3 -
I despise playing against most Wraiths. Not for the power, but just because most of them use NOED and camp.
The first is not a problem, since I always use Detective's Hunch, it's the latter that frustates me.
1 -
Doctor. All that screaming and fake images...gets right up my nose.
1 -
Pig
Cause I see mistakes being made a lot (Pig main and low skill survivor)
Or all killer I face cause again Low skill survivor here

i can find instances of him saying it here: https://youtu.be/5h10-JuLwEU , however i cant find a video of any calculations. Also in this video it does say that it is at certain ranges that it is unreactable and at 15 meters he says it may be. Hope this helped 😀

Agreed Deathslinger is the most annoying for me as well. Los only works for so long before he catches up. Theres nothing you can do in chase and i feel hes the only killer who actually has zero counterplay.
0 -
or AFK in a corner.
Some even afk all game only to bring out NOED/blood warden last minute if survivors don't do bones.
2 -
Hag for sure. Not even really the killer herself but mostly how most people don't know how she works.
Nothing worse then crouching all the way to hook, getting exposed and the unhookie deciding to run around the hook triggering every single trap that they watched being placed there
0 -
Michael Myers, Ghostface, and The Pig. That zero terror radius stuff is bs.
1 -
I can understand that can be annoying, but at least the Survivors have the power to finish the gens and do all the totems in peace and move on into the next game.
2 -
Leatherface and Freddy.
0 -
Trapper

Not to sound like every survivor main ever but I detest Freddy and slinger. Both are so boring to go against. Freddy's kit is packed to the brim with different abilities and slinger has basically no counterplay.

You gotta learn to keep your head on a swivel.
3 -
Doctor or Freddy because they can do a build where the game is basically at a stand still where nothing is progressing and they could just sacrifice everyone and end it but instead they just drag it out way too long.
0 -
A good Nurse is the ultimate unfunny, none of my fellow Survivors can last less than 12 seconds in a chase vs her.
0 -
Legion with their add-on that keeps the terror radius all over the map, sound gets annoying quickly and you have to constantly keep checking if you're being chased or not. Also I'm gonna have to agree with deathslinger, me and a couple of friends on a discord server we call him the cockslinger because of how annoying he is to play against. Ghostface is rather problematic too, he should be somewhat nerfed, if you're trying to reveal him there's always an indicator for him on where the direction you're at in order to reveal him. Not gonna bother talking about freddy since he's just an actual nightmare to play against, way too overpowered so we'll see how his nerf will come out to be.

I hate Nurse, Freddy, Spirit, and Deathslinger pretty equally. All of them lack any form of counterplay aside from just stealth and crank gens, which isn't fun for anyone.
Hag would probably go on this list but nobody plays her thankfully.
2 -
Freddy, partially because his teleportation ability is just Demogorgon's power on steroids.. and I'm a Demogorgon main.
Also because he's by far the easiest killer and one of the strongest (top five minimum IMO), easy anti-loop mechanic, easy map pressure and free slow-down.

Clown
I just hate the tonic effect as it makes me feel queasy.

Every time I find out I'm playing against oni I wanna delete my whole life so.....
1 -
My top 3 are as follows
- Tie between Leatherface and Clown. Both have very little counterplay and are just very aggrivating
- Pyramid Head. Only applies if the killer knows what he is doing. That hitting through walls stuff is infuriating. Especially when I've unhooked someone and he downs them immediately through two walls
- Myers. No skill killer. You look in a direction and hold a button for free one hit down. No stealth involved like Ghostface. Also one of the few killers where their power punishes me for my teammates being bad
1 -
spirit and deathslinger
0 -
I don't find him that bad. Just be vigilant and stick to tight corners while he is trying to one hit down
0 -
Today at least, all of them, when you get terrible teams and the sweaty killers.
It's a rough day so far. could change.
0 -
Freddy imo.
he just has no downsides you could exploit and use against him.
its just... he has everything, so anything i do feels kind of pointless and / or sluggish.
1 -
The list grows ever longer. I don't like playing against Deathslinger, Spirit, Pyramid Head, The Twins or Hag.
Deathslinger is probably my least favourite, closely followed by Spirit. I just really dislike how his mere existence in a chase is a 'mindgame'. He can at any point without any warning 'quickscope' you, so you always have to be prepared for it... but that means zig zagging and playing around tiles really poorly. Which means he can get free hits as I said, just from existing.
1 -
Any killer that tunnels or camps because I ran them decently.
0 -
Spirit - No counterplay
Hag - Almost none reaction time (Scroll/Macro Hags)
Nurse - A killer should not EVER bypass survivors defense. What is the point here ? if everyon starts to learn Nurse then DBD will became a clown fiesta or more ...

This Scott video is everything i have on my head but i'm unable to transcript ... so true !

Oh I just always make sure if I am with friends, that we do all the bones before last gen. to prevent "activating" dormant killers.
It's not annoying tbh, it doesn't bother me.
0 -
Everytime I see a fountain I just sigh since plague is not only a bad killer but let's you hear the constant coughing and puking. I find it really annoying. She needs a lot of love from the devs... The fact that you can prevent getting broken by just walking is ridiculous. I can't even remember the last time I encountered a good plague and even then the annoying coughing still makes my skin crawl.
0 -
Freddy. His nerf can't come soon enough. I hope they take away the automatic dream world and require him to manually put us in it, while also adding an extra active clock on the map so I don't have to run all across the world.
He just has so much going for him and he seems to attract the sleaziest players.
1 -
Legion, Freddy, Clown, PH, Deathslinger, Hag, Oni, Twins, all with very fun and interactive™ powers
I'd add to the list GF because he's buggy as hell, those doctors that keep spamming the power, and spirit because, as with freddy, it's usually played by boosted players. Good spirits are rare
... Yeah, I don't find survivor fun most of the times.

I gotta go with spirit personally. Not gonna say she's broken or low-effort, but it feels like i just make the wrong calls every time i get in a chase with her.
Honorable mention goes to Bubba, if only because my randos don't understand that group hugs around Bubba are a no-no.

Spirit and it's not even close
2 -
So you just don't like stealth killers. Not to be the "git gud" guy, but it sounds like you just need to learn to play around it.
1 -
Cringeslinger probably.
Honourable mentions go to freddy and hag/plague but the latter two are teammates not knowing how to respond to them and killing us all
