Killer Mains, Who is Your Favorite?

What killers do you guys main, and why? Personally, I like to play Bubba because his graphics are a cut above the other killers on PS4. It's also satisfying to down survivors in one swing instead of prolonging chases with two. I'm not a high ranking player yet by any means, so the insta-down helps me end chases on loops that I otherwise still need to work on.

    Hag! I love predicting where survivors are going to go, and being rewarded for that. However, sometimes I just get a bad map and competent survivors and it's no fun. I love a challenge, but Hag's limited teleport range takes away most of her map pressure on large maps.

    Edit: Bubba is also included because he's my favorite to MEME with.

    Nurse

    Before they nerfed her than she became irritating to play so I now I no longer have a fovoriite/main killer

    DBD78 Member Posts: 3,469

    I see Clown as my main because he is a fun guy, but truth is I play a lot of killers. I can't just stick to one killer because I get bored. But Clown is my all time favorite.

    Pig, Huntress, Spirit, Plague, Freddy, Wraith, Trapper, Demogorgon are killers I play a lot also. I especially like Pig and Plague.

    Ghostface is easily my favorite, I like being sneaky with his power... though the octopus gargling noises he makes when near you whilst using it isn’t that great.

    Claudette. Her powers will make players stress out and go blind, making it easier to down them!

  • EmpireWinner

    Semi Nurse.

    As of right now, Hag.

  • Eninya
    Eninya Member Posts: 1,256

    Hag/Pig. I play more Pig overall, but Hag is bae. My little grass gremlin is sneaky AND spoopy!

  • OtakuFreak
    OtakuFreak Member Posts: 206

    Bubba.

    I love how lethal he can be in certain situations. The basement is easily a death sentence for the survivor/game if I decide they are unworthy of my kindness (i.e whether I patrol or outright leave to allow a save).

    I do recognise he is a weak killer, but there seems to be a stereotype that bubba players are stupid (i.e respect pallets) and weak players in general. I love breaking that stereotype and crushing survivors who underestimate me.

    Advorsus Member Posts: 1,033

    Well... The doctor was my favorite because of his laugh and effects, I enjoy toying with people. Same reason I enjoy Clown. But looks wise I like the spirit and the Nurse. Their looks and ability to just appear out of no where makes them more terrifying imo. My list as far as playing though is probably:

    Doctor

    Freddie

    Hag

    Clown

    Legion

    Plague

    Nurse

    Spirit

    They're last cause I'm horrible at them 😅

    I hate Billy trapper and leatherface though. They're basic af lol

  • Steel_Eyed
    Steel_Eyed Member Posts: 4,033

    Lately it’s been Oni. Lot of fun with him.

    My first favorite was Clown. Then Billy. Huntress. Ghostface. But nowadays it’s Oni.

    Definitely like to mix it up though.

    I main Freddy and Doctor. I haven’t tried docs rework yet so we’ll see if I keep playing him. I like Freddy because I can easily keep up with gens and play without being too stressed. I know how to use his snares in a lot of situations. I was just really good with doctor plain and simple, not sure if I will be after this nerf comes to PS4.

    I think Docs rework will be good. The calm add on now applies to when Static Blast is readied. Means the large terror radius Doc will be going even when at 1.15.

    I think it’ll be fun.

    Freddy,Trapper and Ghostface

    Oni. I like his concept and power.

  • Wooferson
    Wooferson Member Posts: 22

    Definitely legion (cuz sprinting around is great even if I dont get many kills on him) and even ghostface (cuz memeing and tbagging with survivors)

  • Uistreel

    Used to be nurse, but now she feels horrible to play so I moved on to gf/billy

    I prefer jumpscare killers. I feel like they are the only ones that can bring the game back to what got me, and likely other players as well into this game. I live to make ttv names scream.

    Aesthetically I love legion most.

    Playing I think are Myers and hag (very versatile builds)

  • AllMyLemons
    AllMyLemons Member Posts: 62

    Wraith, Pig, Billy

    These are the ones ive been playing alot lately. I play with others too.

    Lets see....

    Overall Main and Favorite: Legion (specifically as frank in his november days skin and joey in his afterglow skin)

    2nd Favorite: Ghostface

    (Really love the original ghostface outfit from the movies)

    3rd Favorite: Probably....Plague

    (And the Hollowed Catalyst skin is looks very good to me)

    Now I want to say my least favorites to if thats all right

    3rd least favorite: Nurse

    I play Ps4 and i think most of us know how hard she is to play on there against pc and such

    2nd least favorite: Pig

    I mean i LOVE the SAW franchise and amandas character but the power is jist so useless to me in all my days ive never been able to get a single kill or sacrifice using the traps and the fact tjat a gwn has to be done for them to activate isnt helping

    And my 1st least favorite: Billy

    I dont really know why its just when i started this game i always for some reason intentionally stayed away from him ive never spent a single bloodpoint on him and ive never even bothered acknoledging the perks in the shrine.

    Ghostface. I like one shotting people when they don't even know where i am.

    2 days later it's gonna be doctor. That laugh.. oh man

  • MarksmanSpecal
    MarksmanSpecal Member Posts: 117

    Nurse, but playing every killer. At least i fell in love with GF, so much potential to do stupid things. Crawled around a gen yesterday, i guess, the survivor yelled as he saw me xD

    1. Doctor - I'm a sucker for electrical powers. He also has a built in GPS which is really helpful because on some maps I struggle at tracking.
    2. Demogorgon - The only licenced killer I own as I'm not a big horror movie fan. I don't even watch Stranger Things but I just wanted to play as some kind of creature.
    3. Plague - I like killers with some kind of debuff ability to spice things up. She can be very lethal when she gets her corrupt purge going.
    4. Wraith - I don't play him as much these days but I like him for his simplicity.

    Legion but after the nerf now Spirit.

    I loved legion because susie is my waifu and I loved the fast running/vaulting and multi stabbing concept. Since Legion is less lethal than a fly I preffer playing spirit because she is the next most fun killer to me ... exept the bugged lunge and sound buggs, right now I am waiting until they FINALLY fix spirit after 1 month.

    Nurse is everything for me and so is my main and still is. hillbilly is second and clown third because of his laugh and his strategic play but is very bad.

  • BlueFang
    BlueFang Member Posts: 1,379

    Wraith, Michael Myers, Trapper maybe Ghostface

  • ZoneDymo
    ZoneDymo Member Posts: 1,946

  • Sonzaishinai

  • Liruliniel
    Liruliniel Member Posts: 3,047

    Pig is the funniest killer to me

    Trapper, Spirit, Hag, Huntress appeal to ke mechanically and aesthetically.

  • xBEATDOWNSx
    xBEATDOWNSx Member Posts: 636

    1st Pick Ghostface

    2nd Legion

    If I'm feeling extra sweaty:Spirit
