Need a suggestion for a main killer

So im lvl 37 rank 11 with Wraith, heres my problem: I dont particularly like him, im knowledgeable enough about the game to realize hes just a step up from a scooby doo villain and that I could do better.

I dont like the trappy killers, I dont like the wind-up attacks like billy, I loathed the nurse.

I like chasing them down and being stealthy.

Im willing to spend cash on a killer but I'd like a suggestion from the community

    If you like being stealthy I'd suggest ghost face. Myers isn't as stealthy because he can't be broken out of his stalk. But sometimes you don't even notice the ghost face peeking around a corner until it's too late. And I enjoy seeing survivors panick and run in a random direction as soon as they get exposed. Pigs stealth is rarely worth using in most situations because of the slower movespeed

    "Myers isn't as stealthy because he can't be broken out of his stalk"

    Thats an oxymoron if I've ever heard one.

    I didn't explain myself very well there did I lol. What I meant was Myers isn't as stealthy because of the way his stalk works. Ghost face can be broken out of his stalk so you're pressured to stay hidden and stealthy. Every Myers player I've seen just stands in broad daylight stalking people because they know they can't be broken out of their stalk. And after enough stalking you start to get a terror radius which makes him more noticeable. Sorry for the confusion

    I see. Well if you do want to be a "tried and true" stealth killer, then neither are really the best option. Myers is stealthy at first but in late game becomes a standard killer with an instadown. Ghostface however can easily get knocked out of his power and can turn a chase into a basic M1 chase. And because his power doesn't actively help in a chase (unless you were able to mark them beforehand), it'll happen a lot, especially in mid-late game, where you'll be busted out of your power before you can mark anyone.

    From my experience, from a survivors perspective Myers is the more terrifying and "stealthy" killer to go up against.

    I can see why you think that, and I agree with you he can be terrifying to go up against. At the same time my personal preference is still ghost face, I think his power still has some effect if you can use it mid chase behind a wall for mind games, of course that depends on the map too. But yes I can see how Myers is stealthy early on

    What is the hate with the wraith, he is quite honestly one of the few killers you are guaranteed a first hit with, after that its back cloaked for the guaranteed second hit, spine chill is easily countered with him too just need to know how to approach gens. Beyond that his invisibility also helps with mind games against other locator perks such as alert (similar counter as bbq) kick something go one direction then go to the gen you know someone is on (granted this also requires a locator perk such as surveillance, bbq, discordance etc) also its fun to take beast and windstorm together because survivors wont know what to do with themselves
