    its obvious its your opinion but mine for example would differ in myers being lower, artist being higher, twins being lower considering the current meta and trickster being higher in my opinion, other than that i pretty much agree with you on that one

    @Chappy04

    Myers is fun killer for me because he has good and fun add-ons. But ofcourse you are right, opinions can be different.

    @GoodBoyKaru

    I swear i saw you once with Spirit pfp. I thought you love to play as her.

    @tenoresax

    So we agree Blight, Nemesis, Sadako etc are fun killers and we also agree Freddy and Hag boring asf.

    I had it for a pfp swap joke with Gann, that's all. I absolutely despise playing as her.

    Oh, this is why people changed their pfps. I saw even @GeneralV changed. Thank you for explain.

    mayde a couple of changes since the last one. Huntress and pig were d tier but they are F now. I got bored of seeing them every match. Artist dropped one. Plague dropped. And I’m surprised people actually like this new killer. She’s got the huntress and pig effect for “facing her every game makes her bored”

    Could you explain your Legion ranking? I wish I could enjoy them but I just find them so bland.

    I've been having a ton of fun with Vommy Mommy recently but that is of course my opinion


    Oh, and I am legally obligated to say Spirit should be S tier.

    Assume anything not mentioned is an agreement.

    Nemesis is indeed pretty fun - unless you get sent to Swamp against people who know how to run it (objects here still futz with his power). Down 1 tier.

    Sadako...I'm holding out for a small buff. I love her visuals/audio, but her camera is so low that grass is like corn, and corn is like being trolled. Why does she need a lullaby? Down 3 tiers.

    Legion - eh. Not my favorite. Down two tiers.

    Demo - absolutely. Alongside Plague as 'best designed killers'. Up to top.

    Nurse - I find her a bit one-dimensional. Down two tiers. Ditto Huntress.

    Myers - I actually play a lot of him right now, preferably with the mirror+rabbit 'spoopy Myers' style (which I'm sustaining via black wards at present. It's incredibly fun and great for practicing chases. Up a tier.

    Oni - I still don't understand this killer. Ditto Billy. Down two tiers.

    Bubba - I cannot stand his sound design and people DC the second I down them due to an expectation of getting camped. Down to very bottom.

    Plague - Among the 'perfect' killers. I never get bored of playing her - but weirdly, she's almost never my first choice. Up two tiers.

    Trapper - Can be fun, but so janky at times. Ditto Ghosty. Down a tier.

    Doctor - I really enjoy him. Well rounded. A bit too much of his power depends on addons though and latency issues make his shocks inconsistent. Up a tier.

    Hag - She's probably the most divisive killer in the game. People either love her or hate her. I'm in the former camp, and she was the killer that made me enjoy this game. Up to top.

    Artist - Weirdly similarly to Hag in that people love her or hate her. I enjoy playing birb momma quite a bit - but there are still issues with her bird strikes not counting towards medals. Up 3 tiers.

    This is lacking a lot of killers because I haven't tried them all, so I can't really form an opinion on those ones, but yeah.

    Oh wait this is to play as not against. Well I love playing demo and enjoy pyramid head and pinhead

    Mine is something like this

    • I hate playing Nurse the most. It’s the whole staring at your feet thing 1/2 the match, so annoying!
    • Hillbilly I also dislike, he just feels like if you took Blight and Bubba and just made them both clunkier. Hitting with his chainsaw is fiddly, and he doesn’t have the same level of maneuverability Blight does to do sharp turns and such.
    • I’m not a fan of most of the ranged attackers, I prefer playing the melee killers. So Huntress, Deathslinger, Trickster and Plague are all in the same bucket.
    • I’d like Oni more except hitting with his charge attack just feels too awkward.
    • Trapper would be ok but he takes a lot of time to set things up and they don’t always pay off
    • Up another notch, Wraith is ok but I always feel like his Decloak is awkwardly slow. I like the other stealth killers better in terms of the fluidity of going in and out of stealth
    • Artist is a killer I find ok but I wish I liked more. Mainly it just seems too easy for survivors to avoid the crows getting pings at long range if they’re at all paying attention. She feels like Doctor but with an ability survivors can dodge.
    • Demogorgon is ok, I like his ability to use portals as radar stations. His lunge always felt a bit clunky though.
    • Legion’s ability to vault pallets is fun, their Deep Wound effect just seems a bit weak is all.
    • Spirit has a cool passive ability of not seeing where she is, and her phasing is neat, but playing solely by ear isn’t all that great.
    • Bubba’s chainsaw is great but that’s all he has
    • Hag’s teleporting is cool but I always feel like I’d have to play her fairly regularly to be able to consistently get hits after teleporting.
    • I’m not a fan of Meyer’s basic kit, but he does have really fun playstyle variant add-ons in the mirrors and Tombstone
    • Twins are pretty fun. Victor has great mobility and a pretty vicious attack. I actually don’t even do the camping thing with them, I prefer to use Victor for all the attacks and Charlotte to occasionally split pressure and carry people to hooks.
    • Blight is fun, he has great mobility. I’d probably rank him even higher if I played him more often and was more consistent hitting rush attacks.
    • I love Pyramid Head’s trails and cages. I don’t even care about his ranged attack that much, sending people to the Cages and getting the killer instinct pings never gets old for me.
    • Ghost Face has solid stealth, and even when people knock him out of stealth he gets killer instinct pings on where they are which is also really useful. Getting Exposed hits on marked people feels great but can be tricky sometimes, especially against savvy survivors and survivors on comms.
    • Clown is a basic attack killer who is solid in a chase and that alone gets him into the Fun category. I’d put him in the top category except his bottle switching feels a little overly complicated for what it accomplishes.
    • Pig is one of my favorite stealth characters. Most people don’t seem to use her stealth much, not me. I’m perfectly happy moving at about 90% speed when it means getting super close to survivors to get a hit before a chase. And her Ambush works surprisingly well from stealth, I rarely miss Ambush attacks. She’s borderline between the top and second tiers in terms of fun for me.
    • Sadako has kind of edged out Pig as my favorite stealth killer. Unlike Pig she has virtually full mobility while stealthy and, unlike Wraith, still moves at survivor speed while Manifesting. She just feels really fluid going in and out of stealth. Her invisibility is neat mechanically and aeathetically, and her teleport is a lot of fun to just zip around the map whenever you want to scout or patrol or occasionally to cut someone off in a chase. She’s quickly climbed the ranks for me in terms of favorite character to play.
    • Pinhead is just plain enjoyable to play simply because of his Chain Hunts and teleporting to survivors who try and use the box to stop it. His 1v1 ranged attack isn’t all that powerful but it’s ok and I can hit with it a bit more reliably than some of the other ranged attacks on other killers. And of course his taunting of survivors is awesome. 😄
    • Nemesis is lots of fun for two reasons - his Zombies are fantastic scouts to find survivors, and he is a pallet smashing juggernaut. He’s an even better pallet smasher in my mind than Bubba because he actually doesn’t stop moving when he uses his whip to break a pallet. Plus his other animations are just really satisfying like one fist punching breakable walls. I barely use his whip to damage survivors and never played Resident Evil and I still really enjoy playing him.
    • Freddy has one of my favorite aesthetics in the game. I love the look of Dreamworld, his animations like when he scratches a breakable wall before shattering it, and his haunting laugh. And even though snares are objectively more effective I always use his Fake Pallets because it’s always hilarious when survivors fall for them. 😄 On top of which he’s semi-stealthy which is cool and his teleport is handy too. Such a fun killer!
    • And finally Doctor is my number 1. He is bar none the best tracker in the game which I really, really appreciate. It means he’s always active chasing people, it’s very hard to stay hidden from him. And then during a chase his Shock is quite good at helping secure hits. Plus I just love that he’s the only killer I actively want to use Distressing with. 😄

    Love this topic!

    I definitely prefer playing characters I find the most fun over anything else.

    For me, I love the feeling of playing Hillbilly, Nemesis, and Onroyo!

    I swear to Satan, I had the idea to put "party" in my top tier name before I saw the dude with the death metal username's list.

    I'm surprised Nemesis isn't in "controller makes them hell". He'd probably be in my top two tiers if I wasn't playing on Stadia with a controller... can't hit ######### with his tentacle. I usually just PWYF on everyone except pallets and the Obsession and miss them half the time.

    I also haven't played a game with Spirit since her nerf, but I won't rule it out ever again, so I put her in a favorable tier.

    @MikaleaWantsYourBoon for sure! thanks for making this post! i actually made this list yesterday with a buddy of mine as we were discussing the very same thing!

    so i see you also have a One True Main, in Nemesis! Tell me what you love about him and what build(s) you like!

    i have fun with Nemesis. for me it's ALL ABOUT Double Zombie Speed addons. XD i just get such a kick out of zombies harassing survs, and they can be such a pain when they're zoomin'. I use the Eye and the Purple tape, mostly. i forget the names. if i run out of purple tape, i'll use the Iri, but i prefer faster speed overall, rather than bursts of speed after gen completion.

    for perks i use Discordance and Pain Res, in order to train my zombies where i want them to go and harass ppl. plus STBFL, since i can down the Obsession with the tentacle. and Knockout, because i love the idea of getting punched by this HULK really gets your ears ringing! XD

    he's super fun. i hope one day for a Mr. X skin, then he'd go up my tier list. XD

    Of course, different strokes for different folks.

    Also even for their bad decisions, they still do make goods ones aswell imo.

    Enduring + Spirit Fury + Pain Resonance + Hex: Plaything

    This my fav build on Nemesis. He is eating pallets so fast, so Enduring and Spirit Fury combo makes him more oppressive at chases. PR because ofcourse i need some gen slowdown. And Plaything is also so good on him. Because survivor need to find totem (slowdown) or they will give me free hits. Sometimes i am playing with different builds but this one is so good on him.

    I usually using Marvin's Blood and Zombie Heart for makes tiers faster. His tentacle is everything he needs. So making tiers as fast i can is best of him.

    STBFL is not good idea btw. You should use your tentacle all time. At start, it is hard to learn. But when you pratice and master all tricks, his tentacle destroying everything. Ofcourse take m1 if they give you free hits but your weapon is tentacle. You can make build around STBFL on him and this will work so good too but this is not max of Nemesis's potential.

    I actually would take Mr X skin, he is cool villain. But i wanna Classic Nemesis skin so badly.
