Will we ever get another S / A tier killer
I feel like the past 2 chapters have released otherwise standard killers and forgettable perks i really want to believe someday a new killer will come out and be on the same level as nurse hillbilly or spirit , just something that makes survivors have to change their play style but imo the past 2 killers haven’t really been that exciting to me

Sure oni is strong and has a bad ass mori but he just feels like billy with a timer

Demo is actually pretty good if played right.

Oni is A-tier. If you play him right he will have access to his power at almost all times once you get going.
2 -
They can’t because it’s to frustrating for survivors

Highly doubt it, Anything Spirit, Nurse, Hillbilly level would get nerfed right away.
The closest we've got is Freddy's rework, He's pretty effective and fairly easy to play.

Kind of sad lol, they put a lot of well directed effort into killers and the cosmetics just for them to be mediocre

The last four killers...Plague, Ghostface, Demo, and Oni are all fairly strong killers in my opinion.
None of them are Nurse/Spirit strong but they aren’t releasing weak killers.

For A tier, we recently got the Oni and new Doctor. Both have good map pressure, tracking, and chase potential while having weaknesses that can be crippling at certain points (Oni in the early game and Doctor if his Static Blast completely misses and dropping pallets early against his shock). I'd add in Pallet Freddy because without his pallets up, he's just an M1 Killer in chases. You have to bring the Survivor to an area with Dream Pallets.
For S tier, the last one we got was Snare Freddy back in July. Great map pressure and chase potential. I don't think we'll ever get another S tier Killer again though. We got lucky with Snare Freddy.

Looking at how Ruin got destroyed i'd say no.
New players can't handle another top tier killer ruining their precious gaming experience so you will get garbage killers with recycled skills from previous ones.

I'd rather get another killer that uses an active ability and actually has a high skill ceiling ie Huntress/Nurse

Wall smashing sounds S tier to me

I'd be happy with a truly spooky killer with the ability to shorten loops. Something simple, with jump scares and intimidating.
A vampire with limited celerity ( ability to move in the blink of an eye) would be cool. He starts out looking normal and becomes more monstrous as he hit survivors. Gains base movement with each death. Granted more celerity when he hooks alternating survivors. He basically snowballs.

Yes I actually do main her and 3/4 of my games result in a 4 k

Hmmm 80 second cool down also sounds s tier
0 -
oni ,dahhhh
0 -
Yup. It literally permanently destroys a loop.

If they make the killer need a lot of skill to play then I don't see a problem why they shouldn't.
0 -
With the way Freddy went, I doubt they're going that direction.

Oni is definiely not a worse or a timer Billy, they are very different imo. They are similiar because they both sprint, but Oni is way more flexible, at the cost of having his power limited.
Demo is not that bad either, he is a Mid tier killer, other than needing addon rework he is almost fine.
But the perks... Just suck.
There is one ok/good perk on each of them, rest is almost unusable or incredibly situational

S/A rank killers? Maybe low A tier. But nothing that'll really change up the meta. Its about survivor frustration, killer has to be fun to play sure but that comes second to survivor playability. The second a killer is deemed "Unfun" they will be changed until they are on the same level as myers and plague. Not necessarily bad killers, but certainly nothing top tier

No, because survivors don't like them.

Clown bring able to "cut off loops" sounded S tier once, too...
On paper, a lot of ideas look great. BHVR's execution of said ideas is often neutered to a point of ridiculousness.
1 -
Any new killer added won't matter, people will just use the same lame strategies they always do, if people always play the same way then the killers are basically cosmetic as is, we need more S/A tier players
0 -
Oni is absolutely A tier once you get his dash down at loops. He's Billy on steroids, just with a limited amount of power at a time.
2 -
S-Tier shouldnt even exist. And there are plenty A-Tier killers, much more if the player behind is even capable of it. Just sounds like you wanna a killer who doesnt need any skill and ensures a 4k before even one gen is done.
0 -
I mean, Doc and Oni are both A tier. And they finished Freddy and he's now an A tier killer. So their sights look to be aiming for the majority to be A tier killers.
