All killers are viable 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but seriously...
Which killers have you dropped and what new ones do you main now?
I use hag and wraith now since I dont want to disappoint and get at least 4 stacks of bbq and 2 kills.
A bonus is not giving chaser bonuses with these two killers...yes run that loop or run into my next trap🤑.

I dropped billy a long time ago. Recently picked him up again for nostalgia.
My true main is console blight though.
11 -
I’ve mained clown and stuck on him for 2 years. Went through a bit of a billy phase but he’s way too frustrating atm
2 -
I main Myers and Legion.
It used to be Trickster but i decided the he feels too frustrating to play.
3 -
Blight is a much better Billy...better curving and mindgames🙂
1 -
Are you still using clown?
0 -
I tried legion but I end up falling to m1 killer mindgames when I cant group them for a frenzy...surprised they haven't buffed him and Myers yet.
Trickster is fun at times but feels dumb when you get looped around a rock slowly running after them 🤣 played him yesterday for a daily and I had to work for those 4 maximum lacerations😅

Yep. I don’t play killer much anymore so I don’t have much time to learn a new one. Best stick to what I know

I mostly just play more and more Nurse now. I already mained her. Now its just becoming all I play. Nothing else is really fun anymore.
0 -
My problem with trickster is his ammo, it can take forever to chase someone and you'll have the time where you get 5 blade hits and run out blades completely undoing all of your work.
0 -
I'm back on Spirit since I got burned out with Nurse. Still play a lot of Plague and M1s.
1 -
I like PH. He's just good. If you do right u get 4k
2 -
I dropped Plague and Doctor. Plague because she get's absolutely shat on in the point scoring system and general game play. Doctor because he was no longer fun for me and ended up being easy games.
I drift between several but i mostly 'Main' Twins , Blight , Executioner and now Pinhead will most likely replace my clown after playing him near enough over a year, he's getting stale.
0 -
I dropped Spirit because I got a new console.
I had played a ton of Nemesis lately, but I've been having way more fun now with the Cenobite. He's so much better too which is sad.
0 -
How have your matches been so far?
0 -
Just not having to take 3 health states on each survivor 🤣 makes cenobite better
0 -
With MMR like most it has been random but most matches have been decent
0 -
Ooo a twin player haven't seen one in a while🙂...I played super distressing doc and then switched to low terror radius doc for laughs🤣. Once I hit high sbmm with wraith and hag I will go back to doc and clown(I know I know🤣).
0 -
You really have to make sure each blade counts which is harder on console...still think survivors should have to hit m1 to remove knives from their backs to reduce laceration

While I still play a lot of The Pig, I always played a few other killers I enjoyed (Doctor, Trapper, Wraith, Freddy mainly). During the SBMM testing (and since it's been introduced), I've really been playing a variety of other killers I wanted to learn, practice with, and get better with, and I've been enjoying the experience. I've played a LOT of Demogorgon lately, along with Nemesis, and I've dabbled with Huntress. I've been able to practice my Nurse, and I've even gotten in some of the first rounds I've ever played as Leatherface and Hillbilly.
Other than a couple of killers I NEVER play (Twins, Trickster, Deathslinger), I've played multiple rounds with pretty much everyone on the roster of late, though I still consider myself a Pig "main" (and try to still play her more than anyone else). I've definitely enjoyed the variety of late, though.

I've been on a little bit of a break a bit of a mix of burnout and grind burnout as well. I have played a tiny bit of pin head and enjoy them so far and I've always loved clown. Maybe I'll just really enjoy loop denial killers like pinhead clown and doctor lol
Anyways what I wanted to ask you is that, your clown build changed any? I remember it used to have like oppression or something in it... Actually maybe itd be easier if I could just message you on discord or something so we can talk builds xD
0 -
In order I have "mained" Pig, Spirit, Old Freddy, Wraith, Legion, Deathslinger, Legion again, Plague, Trickster, and I am now working on Doctor
0 -
I guess my "main" if I had to pick one, would probably be Nemesis. I want to to main Pig and Legion though. Legion cus I love the customizations on them, being able to be 4 different characters in one, plus I genuinely like their story and want to see more. As for Pig, well SAW is one of my favorite movies, so I LOVE that I get to play as Amanda and put the reverse bear traps on people, and force them to play a game.
Now big problem with Pig and Legion, they're both massively underpowered, I feel like this more applies to Legion as I can manage well enough with Pig. But damn it's painful likeing Legion and playing them x.x
1 -
I used to be a Pyramid Head, Doctor, and Piggy main.
I now main/one-trick Trickster. I dropped every killer for him
0 -
Started to main billy then he got nerfed hard with his addon pass and overheat, kept going since I still had something to enjoy with him the enduring + chainsaw that keeps some charge after being stunned so you can chew through pallets decently well, then they removed that as well and I decided it was time to move on
1 -
Did you switch to blight?🙂
0 -
How well do you do?🙂
0 -
I dropped all of them and main the Best.
I main Claudette.
Since I couldn't beat them, I joined them. I have chill, stress free matches where I just have to hold M1 and click on space a few times. Occasionally, I may have to hold Shift +W and drop a few pallets and slowly walk out the exit gate. Even if I perform poorly, I don't get death threats or insults anymore!

Well I'm gunning to be the #1 Trickster player so I would say pretty well. In today's matches I 4k'd almost all my matches — except for one 2k and another I memed around with 2 survivors because they gave up and wanted mercy because I was gonna win the game with only 1 gen completed and let them go since they were being the cutest :)

Four years later and still a proud Mikey main.
0 -
yep, and for 6 months I played him to death, through update to update and through bugs and through health, was within the top 10 for people who played blight the most for a long period, then I got burnt out and have never fully recovered, and while I still play blight from time to time I have definitely grown rusty.

As long as you are having fun😁...it is sad I would rather do the same and play killer sparingly afterwards (trying to get some of the lores done but man it is ridiculous now).
1 -
He feels very rewarding when you outsmart the survivor with hug techs though😎
0 -
That is dedication 🙂 how have you adapted with him?
0 -
Awesome job you do him proud😁 any tips?
1 -
Yea but I enjoyed him more early on since J flicks were some of the most interesting attacks in the game
0 -
I never really needed to. I've always done well with him. Perks have come along over the years that have certainly made life easier for him like Bamboozle, Infectious, Corrupt, Lethal Pursuer etc.

I absolutely adore(d) Legion due to their aggressive playstyle with their Feral Frenzy, window and pallet vaults, it was amazing to me, until I got into higher ranks and realized how ACTUALLY UNVIABLE Legion is. Sure, they can slow down the game immensely, but Legion's a basic M1 with no lethality in his rushes, so he gets looped so hard.
After realizing how much of a cutie pie Cheryl was, I decided to try Pyramid Head, and fell in love with all of his unique stuff he does. I loved the ability to just negate loops with my Punishment of the Damned and enjoyed giving Survivors the Final Judgement occasionally, until I realized how easy it is to dodge his PotD and how little Survivors will run through the Trails of Torment in the higher ranks.
I recently played RE3: Remake and loved Nemesis in that game, and how aggressive he was. I decided that I'd give him a try in DBD, since I never really played him that much, and adored the mechanic of the zombies, and enjoyed the tentacle whip as it was an easier to use Pyramid Head ability, until I started to think about how little the Nemesis in DBD actually represents Nemesis... and how hard it is to land whips on Survivors who are behind anything, since the hit boxes on everything is just so big. Can't hit through most windows as I hit the edges. I'm still sticking to Nemesis, but especially with the new SBMM, it's getting harder for me to decide to play Killer each day.

I still dabble in killers when I get bored of dying in solo queue, but yea, the game is getting stale and getting my butt kicked over and over as killer doesn't help. I hope to find a new addiction soon.
0 -
With current matchmaking. I do whatever my daily challenges tell me to play, then I work on adepts or play Doctor (because I have all the perks and like 50 more sacrificial cakes left on him)
I spent all evening playing Billy to get his adept. It went exactly how you imagined it would, but we got there in the end. Time to not play him for another year if I can avoid it.

Awe thank you 🥺 and yeah! I actually wrote an entire guide for him on here in case you wanted some tips! <3

For quite a while I switched between killers but my main is huntress and has been for the last year or more now.
I'll never drop her, I also love playing as Legion even if they're unviable at high mmr.
I want to start learning others though, maybe some nurse and blight?
Pick up spirit again too
I'm on console btw.

Dropped playingbTrapper and ghostface regularly for Oni.

I'm a Plague main, and I play a lot of Legion. I used to play a lot of Hag, but I quit because I realised she was way too easy. I played a lot of Slinger back when the W key got pupular, dropped him for Blight, then dropped Blight when they messed with his bumping earlier this year and went back to Plague. I also play a lot of Demogorgon.
0 -
I wouldn't say I dropped Pyramid head but I definitely haven't been playing him a lot due to him always having something wrong with him. I definitely dropped legion due to kinda losing any fun with him. I've been trying to pick up Oni but similar to one of the reasons why I stopped playing pyramid head, the FPS makes it so hard to play.
0 -
I'm low-key considering moving back to Freddy because I can't deal with Pyramid Head queue times
I love him and I love to play him, don't get me wrong, but I'm already getting rusty because I haven't played him in over 2 weeks at this point because I just can't be asked to wait an hour for a 4 key gamer moment
Though Wraith is getting tempting. I'd go for Nurse but her bugs make me sad

I started with Billy because he was fun and easy to pick up. The mobility gave me a good sense for the game and his Perks are pretty beginner friendly.
I dropped him for Ghostface and rescently the Cenobite. Ghostface is pretty dear to me as I realy like his story and his gameplay, stalking and jumpscaring survivors, mindgameing without a red stain and an overall tactical approach got me hooked. I have all the perks on Ghosty just to flip some funny builds on but my favourite is BBQ, Whispers, Surge and Safe the Best.
Then Pinhead came out and as I am a big fan of Berserk (manga) and the Cenobites from Hellraiser inspired the main antagonists (God Hand) of that manga AND I realy like some of the Hellriser films it was pretty clear that I had to get him. And now I am throwing chains and enjoying just his baseline perks with Hex: Thrill of the Hunt.
Still, I enjoy some casual Billy play from time to time. Hitting a sick chainsaw is just sweet and rewarding. 4 escapes, 1/0 hooks? Doesn't matter if you got that sweet chainsaw around the loop.
0 -
I used to one trick Ghostface until that day I got matched against that one SWF...
Now I’m one tricking Blight but I’d love to learn Billy, Demo and Nurse

Currently enjoying Nemesis even though I found him extremely boring on release as he has none of the famous weapons.
Having zombies on the map that occasionally assist me during a chase or reveal a survivor's location has a very calming effect on me. If only they didn't get stuck everywhere.
Their ai, base movement speed and detection radius could be a little better. Hopefully the devs do something in this regard at some point. They really get stuck a lot!
Other than that he's just so much fun to play for me at the moment I pretty much only play him now regardless of how the games go.
I have to admit I've started running a slowdown build on him, though because survivors basically have 3 health states and many of them keep holding W after every hit - so even if I hit every attack the chases are way too long to get a lot of hooks without slowdown.
1 -
I do not know, man. I am just not vibing with the ranged killers too much since mmr. The survivors just feel too easy to hit at low mmr and against better survivors, they know the counterplay which almost invalidates your power unless they mess up. I really feel like mixed lobbies were key in enjoying them.
Pyramid Head is kind of a weird exception because I used to think he was really bad because of how slow his projectile was. But ever since mmr, I can land it super consistently. So he went from my least played to among my most played. All my ranged killer time goes into him now, basically.

Nah it’s the same as before. Gearhead, oppression bbq and pop
