What's your favorite killer in the game? I'm just curious about everyone's opinions. Please dont judge peoples vote in the comments, let's instead share opinions and have positive conversations about our favorite killers. I dont have ghostface yet on the mobile version of dbd but it might become my favorite because I've seen gameplay and he looks like a fun killer.

    The deathslinger

    I just like the overall classic aesthetic of Deathslinger. Tall western man seeping with vengeance. Plus he's the only male killer with long hair, so he's the only relatable killer to me. Long hair dudes ftw.

    Ghostface is fun to play once you get the hang of him, especially in low ranks.

    The ghostface

    Ghostface is a horror classic, even though DBD wasn't able to get the full license. It's very satisfying to have them oblivious survivors working on Gens and then you go and grab them.

    The nightmare (Freddy Krugar)

    For me it's a tie between Freddy and Michael.

    Edit: As of now, it's Pyramid Head.

    Oni, his power is the most satisfying of any killer in the game.

    The ghostface

    Ghostface main, been vouching for the characters inclusion since 2016 and I've been supremely happy ever since 2019 :D

    I'm also extremely happy that he will be the licensed killer who has seen the most cosmetic support out of all of them, having the most cosmetics after the Viper mask / outfit is released in the upcoming weeks. Even over licenses who have been here for years longer like Myers, Freddy, The Pig, etc. won't have the 4 full premium outfits Ghostface has (technically will have) access to. R.J. Torbert is such a ######### chad for being as amicable as he has been with his license and working the Dev team

    And I am very much looking forward to seeing a Scarecrow Ghostface outfit that I can use on the Coldwind farms maps so make it 5!

    ....Pleeeeeease, please, please, please, add that Scarecrow Ghostface outfit. I need it. Not want, need.


    Although I won't lie, I have a list of favorite killers that will always be right below Gf, and Deathslinger is pretty close. He looks so cool, and he's so fun to play. Oni is great, very viable killer and I'll sometimes switch to Oni just so he can vent for me on my behalf by roaring a war cry and thunderously careening across the map to pound survivors into the ######### dirt. I love the Clown and his whole theme / aesthetic, clowns are creepy (it's just that his power sucks). And both Ghostface and Freddy Krueger came from the same man (Rest in Peace Wes Craven) so obviously I like Freddy too (even if it is bootleg 2010 Freddy). Trapper is always a fun to play (when he works) classic as well

    Oni is an absolute gamer jeff man boy. My only gripe is that he has to be associated with Spirit and that absolute abomination should have never existed.

    I respect the hell out of that. I love the clown but he just doesn't make it to my absolute favorite because of the power :( hopefully we see a buff or rework in the future.

    I absolutely love the deathslinger. He's really fun to play as in my opinion. I haven't gotten the chance to play against him though. Freddy is definitely a close second.

    The Huntress.

    The most balanced Killer and the Killer with the best add-on set. She has like 1 bad add-on, 2 meh, and all the rest are various states of good.

    I also just really like playing as her personally.

    The Legion

    Legion's my favorite, but I like Oni, 'Slinger, Plague, Huntress, Spirit, Trapper...

    All 'cept Nurse and Billy, really. And maybe Demo. I'd like him if he wasn't so clunky to play on console. : P

    She's fun to play as, enjoyable to go against too unless it's a corrupt purge shitshow. Doesn't get much love.

    Dr. Carter obviously. His instrument of destruction (aka the stick), combined with small jolts of electricity make for a deadly combination.

    Wraith.


    He will always have the best skins. If his play wasn't mediocre at high levels, I'd play him all the time nonstop.

    The spirit, she has a really good and interesting design, and she looks so sad and angry all the time which makes me really feel bad for her.

    I like the nightmare, but I also love the pig. Mainly because I’m a fan of licensed killers.

    Can you specify whether you mean in general, for their cosmetics, to play as, or to play against?

    The clown

    I can't pick just one.

    Freddy. Clown. Myers. Oni. Billy. Deathslinger. Doctor.

    Likely Nurse once I get at least decent with her.

    Please tell me why Legion, Clown, Freddy, and Deathslinger are on here, but Huntress and Nurse aren't.

    I really love the Hag, her traps have an almost limitless skill ceiling, and her mindgame potential is superb.

    The shape (Michael Myers)

    Aint no school like the old school. The OG slasher himself Michael Myers. To this day hes still legendary second only to Jason but he got his own dbd-esque game.

    I love Huntress because of her lore and her gameplay. My favourite parts of playing as her are that I sometimes get survivors who are total potatoes and practically walk into my hatchets, or when they run loops normally. They toss the pallet directly in front of me, I throw hatchet, down they go.

    Nurse, I’ve been a nurse main for far longer than any other killer I’ve Mained and it’s so fun and rewarding. The stress of infinite’s and pallet loops are virtually gone.

    I like Spirit, because shes one of the most fun killers to play, has good outfits, can mindgame survivors, feels smooth to play, and I can guarantee 4ks at any rank.

    You can only have 10 options in one poll, which is why I chose what I thought would be the most interesting for a poll. I'm not saying the huntress and nurse aren't interesting, they definitely are which is why I have other for a option.
