Killer Main asking survivors which type of build they prefer to go against
As the title states I wanted to find out which build survivors enjoy or at least have fun going against more. Also I would like to state that in the endgame Build department, killers would play normally and not camp.
All Gen Slowdown and Endgame perks might not be listed because I probably forgot to include some!
Gen Slowdown Build | <Any of these perks used> Ruin, Tinkerer, pop, Corrupt, Dying Light, Thana.
Endgame | No way out, Remember me, No One Escapes Death, Rancor.
I personally want to state that I mainly use endgame builds because I have more fun throughout the match and have heard that some survivors prefer endgame builds to gen slow down builds but just want a consensus.
TLDR | Do you as a survivor enjoy going against endgame builds or Gen Slowdown Builds

I don't even remember when was the last time I have seen endgame build on killer. So I would prefer that one for a change

Missing all Expose build: Haunted ground, Devour hope, Startruck, Make your choice, Dragon grip, Noed.
For me as survivor, Gen slowdown is boring, I prefer other 2. So as the opposite, I always use End game or Expose build.

I prefer 1 gen slowdown, and chase builds.
But red rank killers basekit perks: Ruin, Corrupt, Pop, Tinkerer or Undying every single game.

I did not include chase builds because I was almost certain that more people would only pick chase or meme builds over the two more common builds. But I also would like to know which slowdown perk

Look, i'm sick of ruin not gonna lie.
Bring Corrupt and Pop, i have no problem. Most killers are HEAVILY ruin dependent and when is gone, they get destroyed.

I prefer to face end game builds.
The constant gen slowdown gets old, especially in Selfish q where people seem to still be afraid to do gens.
This makes the end a bit more exciting and strategic, while still giving some of the team a chance to get out.
I don't need 4ks and 4 man escapes every game. I just want to play and have both sides get lots of points

I mostly use end game build.
If I fail in mid game, end game back me up for some point (since I main Trapper, without Gen slowdown so this happens alot). If I do good, I always double hook but not kill, I only kill once the last Gen is finish, I like no one to miss the tense of end game build, as I like seeing them to struggle, not hopeless (like 1 death at 4 Gen left)

Anything with NOED or a Hex based build please. My Small Game, Counterforce, and Inner Strength would love to see it.

Any Hex build is more fun to go against, but of the Hex builds, Ruin would have to be the worst.

Definitely endgame builds as survivor, you get used to playing around gen slowdown because it's so common and it's a slog but once you get those gens done there isn't much effort needed tryna actually escape. When it gets to endgame and you get slapped with something like NOED or blood warden it really spices things up and gets exciting because we're struggling to get everyone out and sometimes fail but it gets the heart pumping :)

I like builds that catch me off guard. Got bamboozled real good by someone running Dark Devotion and putting it to good use yesterday and that was really fun and interesting. And the same goes for when I play killer, if someone catches me off guard with something like Dance With Me or a well timed flashbang that makes them vanish into thin air by the time I can see again I can only respect that.
I'm by no means trying to say just because I enjoy that sort of thing I'm gonna tell people to use builds like that, shame people that don't or that I look down on people that don't here. I'm simply saying what kinds of builds someone who plays the game for the creative tricks and outplays that can happen when a killer and survivor interacts finds the most entertaining.

I play Killer a bit more than Survivor, but I actually like to go against Rancor because I can see it coming and have time to prepare for it. Only problem is most of the killers I've seen use it... don't actually use it. I just get tunneled before the gens are done.

That because most killer depend on the pressure ruin provide when survivor leave the gen. And the regression on ruin is really good compare to the normal regression. Its not they are dependant on ruin but they save a lot of time by skipping the kick animation and the regression is worth it compare to a normal kick.

Slowdown perks stacked with a side of NOED is annoying to go against, but I love going against endgame-dedicated builds.

End game is fun. Because outside of opening doors and saving teammates who are in a bad situation...
I wanna feel the pressure until the end.

I typically run endgame builds and do fairly well with them. Most of the time that I use them I get screamed at by the survivors and told I'm just bad for having to rely on endgame builds instead of early game builds... A lot of survivors will complain no matter what you do

Yes, even if you run perkless. I've been there.
