    Basically me when I play hag before she got her add ons change to better herself and I still can't see a damn thing with the corn

    Trapper only cause I thought placing bear traps was easy enough to catch people especially those who can't pay attention to their surrounding. It satisfying when one step into a trap

    The Trapper, because I’m a basic #########.

    After playing Bubba to get BBQ, I started using Doc. Tracking was a huge issue for me, and Doc making ppl scream was a band-aid for that. Eventually, I moved on once I got better at finding and tracking survivors.

    Ol' skool Freddy #TheNightmare. Worked him all the way to P3-50 and Rank 1. 😎💪🏾

    Freddy. Everyone said he sucked, but I mained him anyway because I wanted a challenge. I got to rank one with him in the second month while i was still very much a rookie. I never understood why the rework was necessary.

    Wraith, because I could go invisible.

    I started with Huntress, and this was around the time right before Clown came out. I just thought the idea of chucking hatchets at people was a great idea. That and I liked the humming and look of the killer.

    Since I started out as a toxic survivor main I only ever played Billy

    It was the only powerful killer I knew how to play and could succeed with


    After a year I decided to play more killer and ended up loving Wraith

    Hag, because the only other female killer at the time to play was Nurse and I tried her and said forget that crap.

    Nurse screamed at me when i started. The playstyle, the character design, loved it. I stuck with her for a long time before moving to other killer's.

    I'm playing mainly wraith now.

    My very first killer was Nurse because she seemed so cool, but in the first period I tried them all except Trapper. For some reason I despised him (maybe because it was the time where every Trapper camped with traps under hooks), even though now it's among my favourites.

    I started the game after the YouTube algorithm showed me a gameplay of Tru3 as the Hag(as she came out).

    I thought the game looks interesting and I love the concept of the Hag. I always like some map pressure and macro-gameplay.

    So I bought the DBD and it's DLC's had fun with the Hag, leveled up LF for BBQ and went on a Doctor prescribed BP gathering tour. Before the BP changes he gave so much BP, now he isn't bad either. In the end I end up with a fully stacked Hag (besides the newest GF perks, I will wait for 3.2 to drop and finally less grind) and some cosmetics that make her frame small and stealthy for maximal scare factor courtesy of M&A.

    In the beginning I played the hag extremely protective and spread a large web of traps. I always feel a bit bad for that one survivor who always runs into my traps, especially if he just came of the hook. But what should I do? I just teleport hit him then realize, "Not you again!".

    Now I go more for a hunt down strat with M&A, Haunted Ground, Infectious Fright and MYC.

    I started with Wraith, Aug 2018. Because he could be invisible. Moved over to Pig later, as she can turn off her TR. :)

    Ana (Huntress)


    Her humming made the hunt therapeutic.

    Also her bunny mask 💜

    I was browsing different streams and saw this dude playing the Wraith. I had never heard if the game before but it looked so fun (and easy). So I bought he game, started off with Wraith and then bought Bubba :)

    The Legion.....Before his rework sadly.

    I didn't realize how unfair he was but i didn't play killer a lot so i was in green ranks and didn't use them to their full potential.

    Leatherface because I love the original “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” (that and BBQ for bloodpoint of course).

    Pig: loved her side objectives and her jump scare potential is awesome.

    The Pig because I liked the movie franchise and how gruesome it was only to be disappointed because stone face and I cant watch it

    Very first I played was Trapper and only because I figured why not start with the flagship killer.

    The first killer I "played as a main" or "grinded" was Myers. He is also still my favorite killer simply for the fun builds.

    Wraith.

    Thought he was cuute, didn't recloak once in my first match because I thought it was stupid :)

    @blue4zion He is VERY CUTE. His head tilt and disproportionately thin legs are epic 👻

    Can’t hide that beautiful sight from the survivors

    First killer I played was the Hillbilly. Chevy's chainsaw jamboree cannot be stopped.


    First 10 killers I went up against was huntress. Died every time and it was really annoying and boring. To this day, huntress is probably the killer I'm the worst at going against. But I prefer going against her than hag or trapper because I am always certain that I will manage to trigger every single trap.
