    Huntress. I like the mindgames at pallets where you have to gamble on whether shes going to try to hatchet or go for a basic attack.

    Nurse and (Unpopular opinion) Ghostface

    Also a Huntress who knows how to snipe with hatchets.

    Ghostface and Demogorgon.

    Ghostface, simply because he actually poses a challenge, and has tricked me many times when I thought it was a Survivor crawling over to a Gen.

    Demogorgon, simply because I love his chase music, but since his FPS is god awful, I never see him anymore

    I really enjoyed playing against old nurse, going against her because you couldnt loop her. instead you had to try and juke her which was really pleasing and kept the game exciting. I still dont understand why they had to change more than just her addons.

    My favorite killer to go against now would probably have to be huntress, having to dodge hatchets and knowing when to throw a pallet down and vault a window at the right time without getting hit keeps the game fun.

    Oni. Going against that absolute unit is always fun for me and hearing him stomp towards me is so b@dass. Also hearing him use his kanabo across the map in his blood fury is terrifying.


    Too bad gens get done too fast to have a proper game against killers

    Bubba.

    Myers, Specifically jumpscare Myers is the most fun for me (but any build is still going to beat out any other killers)

    He's extremely balanced/fair to me. Even infinite tier 3+tombstone is fair, because if he manages to get that (especially early game) it's on the survivors for feeding him instead of playing smart. Plus being able to still escape from that makes you feel like a god.

    Nurse, probably because I rarely see her.

  • Spooky13
    Spooky13 Member Posts: 1,471

    Myers and Ghostface can still give me a good scare, jumpscare Myers especially.

    Baby Nurses are adorable and I usually end up giving them the sacrifice at the end.

    Oni and Demo for the simple fact that dodging Shred and Demon Strike/Dash feel amazing.

    Stealth killers like Myers and ghostface, they are the most fun to play against.

    Myers, Spirit and Hillbilly. I always liked killers that were actually threatening.

    Hillbilly. If it's a good hillbilly it's hard not to respect them at pallets, knowing that one mistake can be punished with an insta down.

    I play differently with Hillbilly's. At windows if need be I'll try my best to take an M1 instead of an M2. TL walls are pretty tricky. It's a welcomed challenge.

    Huntress, Nurse, Michael, and Pig in no specific order. Oh, Hillybilly most the time.

    Hillbilly and Doc are my favorite to play against, with Plague and Shape very close behind.

    Myers by far. Also generally the least likely to tunnel and camp on average.

    I’ll break them into tiers (not ordered from left to right)

    Above average : Myers, Huntress, Clown, Doc, Leatherface

    Average: Wraith, Nurse, Trapper, Oni, Plague, Demogorgan

    Below average: Pig, Freddy, Hag, Spirit

    Rather uninstall the game: Hillbilly, Legion, Ghostface

    I feel there’s some tilt in there though due to playstyles. Spirit for example may have made average but I’m just so used to 99% of them mostly using her power to rush back to the hook to tunnel that it has soured my experience with her. Same for Wraith and demo, when they aren’t using their power to camp hooks they may be a tier above.

    Hillbilly is the most balanced killed in the game, having a pretty high skill cap and lots of opportunities to outplay survivors, survivors can also read the Hillbilly's plays and counter him. Very fun to play with Hillbilly and also against Hillbilly.

    I would also say Huntress but dedicated servers don't make her hitboxes any fairer

    I love facing fellow Docs. Mostly because he's my boy and to me the being the best Doc is learning how to counter him as well so I understand my weaknesses.

    So I face every fellow Doc as an opportunity possibly learn something.

    Mine is legion, Billy, Nurse, and doctor.

    Legion: Its fun to try to out play them/avoid them entirely as one good DH or just getting enough distance during a chase will stun legion along with legion's power actively discouraging tunneling.

    Also I find when legion U turns(Hits survivor A, followed by hits survivor B, then turning around to hit A after deactivating FF) to be both fun as it keeps you on your toes and hillarious watching my teammates freak out because they didn't expect it.

    Billy: I like the fact he is dangerous and that you have to play pallets/Chases differently due to his chainsaw dash.

    Nurse: same as above but when the nurse doesn't randomly bug out and become unplayable because of her many bugs that can disable her power permanently. She needs some coding rework/Revert just because her bugs have become inexcusable due to how game breaking they are.

    Doctor: I always find when games changes fundamental rules to be amusing when its generally speaking your own fault when it happens. Also he can be relentless due to his ability to find people.

    Spirit. She still creeps me out. :)

    Meyers. He scares me and makes the game suspenseful. His stalking and creeping around always gets me. The rest just obnoxiously fly about out in the open but Meyers is calculating. I hate/love it.

    Spirit and good nurses/huntresses.

    ghostface at the moment bc those who main him are a real threat istg but thats what makes him the most fun to play against.

    Billy. Balanced, with a high skill cap, but fair.

    Chilled killers not sweaty killers, it depends on the players more then the killer

    Myers, Nurse, Spirit, Oni, Ghostface sometimes Huntress.

    Hands down Michael Myers. The one legit creepy killer in the game.

  • The_Daydreamer
    The_Daydreamer Member Posts: 745

    Ghostface. Because he is the only killer that really scares me and has a impact on how I play.

    Nurse because if she doesn't know how to play it's fun to just run towards her when she blinks and watch her try to hit me from 5 meters

  • anonymous31337
    anonymous31337 Member Posts: 192

    (in random order)

    • Old nurse (new one is too easy to play against and almost nobody plays her)
    • spirit (it's fun to play against her, but it's not fun to play ONLY against her -> I'm happy she got nerfed)
    • hillbilly
    • legion (iri button is my favorite)
    • huntress (except for iri head + infantry belt)

    When I play survivor, Billy and Oni is fun. They give me big adrenalin kick, because I know they both can be deadly and oneshot. Myers is always creepy, love playing against him too.
