    I play both sides, but I've been playing killer more lately.

    Welp, I misclicked.

    Granted, the split is roughly 55-45, if not closer, but it still favors Killer.

    Some years ago i played nearly exclusively survivor also because there was no killer in which i was interested enough to main. Meanwhile this changed and killer while stressful is less headache inducing then solo q. Would say around 70/30 balance for me this year.

    More hours on surv. Like 4x more so I guess I main surv.

    But I like playing both roles.

    All respect to killer players but I just find it miserable the state they are in and it never feels fun because rounds as killer (in my experience) usually fit in one of these 3 categories

    1. The Survivors are extremely effective and gets gens done fast and loops okay, I barely get one kill at endgame
    2. Like the first match but the survivors are also terrible people (most common)
    3. I go against literal babies and the 2 minute que took me to a 3 minute game.

    Again, big props to killer players, I'll never understand how y'all can play them outside of a daily or tome challenge.

    I play both near even, but favor killer because its more interesting. like a 40/60

    I play both sides but, I do prefer Killer cause it's more action. Where as Survivor you could sometimes just be sitting on a gen doing nothing all game.

    I play both sides but I play more survivor. It's a 70-30 split I'd say.

    I voted - it's 10/10.

    Gotta love the split.


    I play Survivor too - almost half the time now - but I prefer killer. Would play a lot more if killer gameplay was allowed to be fun or engaging instead of DeadHard Simulator 2022.

    I seldomly play dbd anymore tbh, but when I do it's mostly killer.

    I love playing with friends, so i play more survivor. However, I won't say no to a killer game, either!

    I started as a killer main and then switched to survivor. In my heart, I still feel like a killer main, because that's how my first impression of the game formed.

    I usually play both roles, but I guess I lean a little towards killer.

    playing as survivor is super boring and repetitive. Only play it when I have challenges to do

    I main survivor. I just get stomped every time I try to play killer, and it's demoralizing how unfair my matches are.

    70/30 maybe.

    I enjoy the diversity of playstyles that the killer role has to offer.
