XBOX |Rank 1| Killer Tier List 4.0.0
This is my experience while playing DBD from both sides in rank 1 on xbox:
This is a mix of gameplay from survivor perspective and killer perspective... gameplay overall , let me explain (opinion):
F R E D D Y: good addons, short and lullaby that only tells you he's near. Power to shut down loops and disable repairing gens faking tp or after unhooking.
D O C T O R: enough stall and good information, m1 killer but shut down loops making pallets drops earlier or a succesful hit when shocking in the right time.
H A G: bad gen pressure but big map control, 10 traps on the map is always risky but weak against activated traps while carrying or hitting and swf.
B I L L Y: punish people away from windows or pallets, most likely, just m1 a good survivor and juking is risky but not that effective, he has good movement speed so he put good pressure.
H U N T R E S S: bad gen pressure, good chase but mostly depends if the killer is good and if the survivors succesfuly mindgame her.
O N I: strong mid and end game, weak early but doing good mindgames in blood fury most likely gonna carry you and absorb blood where survivors healed is a good way to get your power when passing by.
G H O S T F A C E: good starting chases but he's vulnerable to looping, he punish survivors that dont pay attention with grabs, bad map pressure but snowballs optimally.
D E A T H S L I N G E R: good chase if you land your shots can snowball quickly and can bait the shots. Bad map pressure and he's predictable.
S P I R I T: like deathslinger, she has a good chase and if played correctly you end chases fast and she has good mobility so she has an acceptable pressure. She's weak with windows and pallets since they can be a mindgame and when her power is recovering.
E X E C U T I O N E R: i just play against him once but he has potential to be like the shred of demo and punish your moves if you are predictable and greedy. The torment is kinda whatever because you need to pay attention while walking or running but in chase it's more difficult but i can't explain more.
T R A P P E R: slow start, good snowball and good mid and end game, you just need to put traps around corners of loops or right in the edge of the pallet and you will have a lot of pressure. If you have been spotted the survivor will disarm your trap and dead hard avoids traps under pallets.
L E G I O N: strong early game but weak mid (good if you could stall in the start because they will spend time mending and healing or just be injured wich is easier to end chases) and end game. Punish survivors that are together and his counter is running away once he stab someone with feral frenzy to waste his whole power.
C L O W N: his buff make him one tier up, he feels dinamic and strong in chases but lacks of map pressure and mobility even being a 4.6 m/s killer, he needs to reload his bottles wich takes time and the little slowdown makes plus 1 sec.
M Y E R S: weak early but strong mid and end game, his counter is hidin in jungle gyms. Again, punish survivors that dont pay attention. Strong addons tho.
W R A I T H: purely a m1 killer and he has good addons, like ghostface he most likely gonna hit you if you dont see him but overall, he can be countered by looping or spine chill. Healing against him is good but in a safe spot otherwise you are done with a hit.
D E M O G O R G O N: he's okay, kinda slow start but has good mobility and chase potential with shred and baiting it. He's easily countered by cleansing his portals in the corners where the gens at and kinda looping.
P L A G U E: weak at the start but once everyone is infected he's like an infinite t3 myers and cleansing makes her huntress on stereoids. She's countered by the early gen rush and cleansing in the corner where nothing is there. Besides that, she's a m1 killer.
N U R S E: it's very rare seeing a good nurse, most of the time you face baby nurse or mediocre nurse and since she's the most counterable killer by moving unpredictable and taking distance makes her worst to play as.
B U B B A: worst killer by far, no map pressure, mobility and chase power, he only end chases faster, his counters are windows, pallets and tiny structures. He's better with the bulp and carbo guide add ons but then, you dont have to be greedy and dont fall for an easy mindgame so always watch him and try to figure out what he is going to do.
Thoughts??

Doctor S tier?
As someone who mains Doctor, Doctor is in no shape of form an S tier killer. He's a very good killer, he has great tracking and great at shutting down loops. However, due to his lack of mobility he can't be an S tier killer, he really struggles on some maps.
With Doctor, you really need to play him to know his weaknesses.
Why is spirit so low, she's the strongest killer on console (along with Freddy).
Deathslinger, is too high in my opinion. He's great at shutting down loops, however he power just takes too much time. When you hit a survivor, you have to reel them in which takes time, then you have to reload which also takes time.
Just curious what is your player level?

I can understand your point of doctor lacking of movement but i think he gains time when you shock survivor to level 3, yeah, is not that good like tp to a gen across the map but as doctor you wont need to move to much
Spirit is like deathslinger for me, spirit is strong but you can gain time if you know she already used her power and if she predicts a little bit wrong (you reach a pallet or move unpredictable without running) so it terms of that, deathslinger is kinda the same with reeling and reloading but he does get punished for failing shots constantly but he doesnt need a mindgame so it's easier ending chases faster afterall

Right now it's almost impossible to play Spirit because injured survivors don't make noise, dying survivors don't make noise, and you can't hear footsteps. It is INSANELY frustrating to play as her right now because of these bugs. If they weren't a thing she would be top tier, but since they are she's mid tier at best.

I used to think billy was strong but now i think he's all right, if you loop properly you will end up getting hit and that means he didnt use his power to is kinda a victory. Yeah, Spirit is strong but I believe she gets gen rushed easily

Yes, it's sad but these tier list only updates PH, no any other changes
Then would you say spirit is stronger than doctor before 4.0.0? is stronger doctor or are both same level? consider your matches against these killers and playins as them 🧐

On certain maps, his lack of mobility really effects him if the survivors just focus on holding M1/R1 on a gen.
I've lost to some extremely mediocre survivors playing as Doctor on Springwood, Disturb Ward, Ormund. Mother's dwelling is a pain to play as Doctor too.
I've seen the best killer players (Otzdarva, Tru3talent) lose to extremely mediocre survivors on certain maps.

Darn, there's need to be a trade when playing Spirit and not Doctor, what downsides would you say Spirit has?
0 -
Currently bugs.
Iron Will, if you don't have Stridor.
I'm not the best person to ask, I rarely play Spirit. Whereas with Doctor he's my main, I know his strengths and weaknesses.

I'm convinced that every killer has their downsides. I dont know the answers but I have a point of view so we will see how survivors will tend to face against her
