2v8 killer selection made simple with primary and secondary tags (extra useful for beginners)

Birken13

Explanation of each tag:

Aggression: Actively chases and pressures survivors.
Ambush: Uses stealth or surprise attacks to catch survivors off guard.
Control: Manipulates the map or survivor movement (traps, slows, zoning).
Punisher: Targets mistakes, injured survivors, or isolated players.
Ranged: Can attack or influence survivors from a distance.

Primary tag shows main playstyle, secondary tag shows secondary strength. Quick visual guide for new players or 2v8 modes. These tags would be shown in killer portraits:

I just had the idea to simplify the killer selection menu and thought it would be a useful QOL improvement for beginners. I tried to balance it with 5 unique tags, not too simple, but not too complicated.

I did my best placing appropriate tags on each killer. If you think I got any wrong, feel free to let me know!

You could definitely have this feature in 1v4 too, but I wanted to focus on 2v8 because I think it’s extra useful there.

1. In 2v8 you’re not just picking for yourself, you’re also thinking about how your killer works with your teammate. Tags would make it easier to quickly understand what role each killer has and who you might want to pair with.
2. It’s also a really casual-friendly mode. A lot of newer players and even experienced ones who just don’t want the same stress 1v4 gives. Tags would help those players figure out what each killer does without having to memorize every power.
3. And since people often try out killers in 2v8 that they don’t normally use, it could also help with deciding which killers to unlock or buy later.
