    Myers is a decent choice. And despite my avatar, I'm not actually a Myers main. I wouldn't consider myself a main of any specific killer. I just like the movies, thus the avatar.

    My advise is buying a licensed killer, because you can acquire the original killers with shards. That leaves you with Leatherface, Myers and Ghostface. If you don’t have BBQ, I would take LF, otherwise Myers.

    @TheEntitiesNeophyte It actually doesn't take long to get to Stage 3. Well, it might in Red ranks, but I don't play at that level, so can't speak for it.

    You also don't want Stage 3 (unless you have the add-ons for perma-Stage 3) unless you can down at least two survivors with it. At least, that's my opinion.

    idk, I don’t have problems with getting EW3. Anyway, he is a great stealth killer with many play styles, and I think he is better than Ghostface.

    @Fab Yeah, highest rank I ever hit was Rank 12, but I also take breaks for months at a time and rank reset always drops me down, down, down, several times.

    I mainly play just to play a Slasher killer, and have never personally cared about pips and rank. So, I try to be careful in what recommendations I give for Killers, because I know many people prefer to rise in the ranks. Nothing wrong with that, mind you, just not my own play style. I did the competitive play style in Overwatch, and it damned near turned my off of gaming after 40 years as a gamer.

    That is a difficult question. It all depends on what you are looking for.

    You are missing (if you play on PC):

    Ghostface ($)

    Pleague

    Legion

    Clown

    Cannibal ($)

    Doctor

    Hag

    Myers ($)

    • Money: Usually i would say either Ghostface, Cannibal or Myers, since those are Money only.


    If you are interested in just the perks: The best Perks in my opinion do have: Clown (Pop, Bamboozle), Cannibal (BBQ), Hag (Ruin)

    Ruin is right now in Shrine of Secrets, BBQ was last week.

    • So Clown would be a good pick here, assuming you spend 2000 shards on Ruin and did the same on BBQ on the Shrine of Secrets.


    Most fun killers to play is very subjective:

    • For me the most fun killers off this list would be Hag or Myers


    Last but not least, who are the best?

    • Probably Hag and Myers aswell
