Dredge opinions?

Dredge is one of my absolutely favorite killers to play alongside Ghostface, but I hardly ever see anyone talk about him.

His map mobility is one of the best in the game and his anti-loop is decent but not unfair. Not to mention nightfall which is what ties everything together and gives the Dredge a lot of snowball ability. The only downside of course is that Dredge is map dependent due to locker placements. In my opinion this is what keeps Dredge from being S tier and shifts him from A to C tier.

His add-ons are also pretty decent as well

    Personally I can’t play dredge due to accessibility issues with nightfall the sounds and visuals really bug my ears and eyes

    I also like dredge a lot, but i could not say is close to S tier.

    If BHVR put lockers in empty spaces of the map for Dredge,Trikster,Huntress ans whoever is next (aka better map desing) i could see Dredge as A and not less than B, really solid.

    May be some addon little changes here and there could help. Both iris are not interesting or strong.

    I've never actually played as Dredge (bought him on release too) usually wait about a year for some reason or another so will probably go for the adept soon.

    I quite like playing against him though, I don't see that many either but i've had 8 this week, 8! Still not entirely sure why the sudden boost!

    Nightfall can be a bit dark on a couple of maps but I don't mind that either, its different & the more unique / individual killers we have the better!

    I like Dredge (besides Nightfall) but he really isn't anywhere close to S-tier.

    I'd put him low B-tier or to the top of C-tier. Not bad, by any means, but definitely not one of the strongest Killers

    Got it on the event sale, and it's my new favorite killer. I love the basic m1 game, and it gives me everything needed to focus on it. No walking around, trying to find survivors - just chase chase chase from the beginning to the end. Hiding only gives free me hits. If I'm outclassed in loops, I can resort to remnant-trickery. Having survivors run into your arms never gets old.

    I don't really get the map-dependency thing though. Which killer isn't map-dependent? Yeah, Nurse, I know, but who else? I'd argue dredge is less dependent than most of the roster, as map-size doesn't matter for it. Sure, there are a few gens you have to walk to the old-fashioned way, but most killers have to walk to every gen.

    It's S++ tier on my list, as that's based on my subjective enjoyment factor.

    He's alright to play but I hate going against him on console. The game is already dark as it is without nightfall.

    I've been enjoying playing it a lot, but although he can be really strong on a few maps he's not S tier material. I'd say he's B tier.

    I don't have the brains to play him, and playing against him gives me migraines...so overall not a fan of him.

    He's quite fun to play and my favorite killer to go against as survivor. I just love nightfall and how cute Dredge is. He deserves love! Sad that not more people play him/it.

    eh hes kinda mid. Decent map mobility, okay anti loop. But if their just holding W you are practically an M1 killer.
