Is it fine to like easy killers?

I get so much flak for maining bubba, trapper, feng min and other easy characters. Almost every match I get messaged about how I play leatherface. Is that okay?

    play how you want. You paid money for the game, never let anyone tell you how to play the game.

    Play whoever you like, aslong as you're having fun never mind what anyone says. If you enjoy Bubba play him, if you enjoy Trapper play him.

    The game's rules don't say anything about not playing easy Killers.

    So go ahead.

    If they have a problem with you doing that specific thing, the problem is actually with them.

    As long as you acknowledge they are easy.

    Although some of the tool-tips the dev's put on the characters are inaccurate. Someone like Billy is an extremely difficult character to get used to with his curving mechanics, but called easy by the devs. Where-as freddy can just snare spam and tp to gens with pop but that's 'hard'.

    Absolutely. Play who you wanna play. Everybody has their own play styles and preferences, if hard killers were all that mattered then the game would have only hard killers. Personally I like having 2 mains in just about any game I play, one that's easy to play and one that's harder to play.

    Always depends on how you play.

    The difficulty rating of Killers is pretty subjective.

    I had some problems, but got used to him pretty quickly.

    At most, i'd personally put him on Intermediate.

    It'd probably be better for the devs to give them a "score" after the Killer's been out for a week or 3.

    I think he is relatively mechanics intensive. As in you need to know where to charge the saw at each loop to curve correctly, when using which add-ons. I don't think M1 billy is always viable at the higher ranks, though depending on the team and your perks it can still work out fine. I almost never see curve billies anymore.

    Freddy? Ehh you just put a snare at the apex of the loop, collect your free hit. You need to know what the loops are, but I don't consider that part too hard.

    really, people should stop caring what others think of them in a game

    playing those killers well in highrank is aktually more difficult than just playing spirit or freddy.

    trapper needs to be very mindful with his traps and against swf.

    No. It is not fine to like and play easy killers. If you play them you will be executed by firing squad immiedately.

    It's fine to like whatever you like. It's a video game.

    Best idea. Why practice nurse for hundreds of hours, when you can just pick freddy and be instantly good?

    I use Freddy when I'm playing casually/ just for points. I don't even load him up with a serious build. I use Distressing, Dark Devotion, Infectious Fright, and Barbecue and Chili and just have fun seeing how often i can get IF to trigger.

    It's OK and also Trapper is not easy, he's easy to understand but hard to do good with
