What are your 'troll' builds for goofing around?

Let's be real, we all have matches where we just want to mess around in a positive way. so, what are your (positive) troll builds? What offerings do you bring? (please note: i'm not talking about 'how toxic can you get' I'm talking about builds that give both sides a good laugh and some much needed moment to breath)


Mine would be

M&A, Dark Devotion, Whispers and tremors + shroud of separation on deathslinger. (people usually catch on that i'm just messing around fairly quickly)

    Diversion, Red Herring,Inner any 2 other perks usually inner strength and detectives hunch

    Also distressing, m&a, dark devotion, tinkerer on doctor with double calm add ons.

    I just now realised my meme type builds rely on messing with the other sides information more than anything.

    No Mother + Self-Care Combo with Diversion and Prove Thyself (for BP)

  • Hag:

    NOED, Blood Warden, Fire Up, Remember Me

    Trap the doors and run around M1ing people until end game, then teleport and down them when they trigger the traps.

    I used to love heavy smoker nurse (but after her addon rework you can't play that), but at least there is burger king myers.

    Every now and then I fiddle around with the add-ons that give you a handicap in exchange for bonus endgame score (e.g. Speed Limiter which makes the chainsaws only do one level of injury but gives +850 Bloodpoints per hit.) The add-ons aren't that great in part because the bonus bloodpoints are capped by the 8k points per category, so if you're playing well you won't get too much of a bonus from them. And if you play really poorly you might not get very many points from them either, you kind of need to hit that 4k sweet spot where you maximize the bonus.

    Anyway the most recent one of those I tried was Hillbilly with Speed Limiter plus his purple LoPro Chains add-on that lets you smash through pallets like the Kool Aid Man and keep running but you can't instant down for a few seconds afterward. Since I'm running Speed Limiter with it though I'm basically getting two-for-one with the double points and instant pallet breaks which is kind of fun. 🙂 It works pretty much with any normal Hillbilly style perks like Tinkerer since he can chainsaw sprint to a gen near completion extremely quickly.

    Of course you're still playing at a handicap not being able to do instant downs, but 850 extra points per hit is pretty good, you're pretty much guaranteed to get 8k in that category at least if you score around 5 chainsaw hits. You just have to play a bit harder to make up for the lack of instant downs. The pallet thing is fun, and it does surprisingly get a couple of hits per match because survivors tend to stand around for a second after they drop a pallet and aren't expecting you to smash right through it, but it's mainly a gimmick really.

    Running adept on the incorrect character. Annoyingly when I run the meme builds the ttv's aren't streaming.

    Probably Soul Guard/Unbreakable and Head-On. The last perk is either a meta perk or another throwaway joke slot.

    This is my Pallets exist? build:

    Fire Up, Brutal Strength, Pop, and Spirit Fury.

    You can replace either Brutal or Fire Up with Enduring if you have an Iri button on (Did I mention this is a Legion build?).


    And then sometimes I use Rancor with Nemesis and see how many I can mori. : D

    I forgot one, it's the "Flashlight Surprise" build

    Lightborn (immune to flashlights, can see the auras of people who try to flashlight blind you)

    Endurance (1/2 stun time from pallet stuns)

    Brutal (1/2 the time to break a pallet)

    Agitation (move faster than a survivor while carrying someone)


    Basically if someone stuns you and tries to blind you, you are immune and break the pallet extremely quickly, usually getting a quick hit right afterward because they're still futilely trying to use their flashlight. Or, if you pick someone up and a player runs in for a flashlight save, you can outrun them while carrying the other person and hit them while they're confused trying to use the flashlight. (And as a side bonus it also helps punish survivors who run in and try to block or sabotage the hook.)

    It's definitely a super gimmicky one-trick pony build, but darn if it isn't funny when it gets you hits. 😄 (And if you really want to go all in you can do this with Hillbilly while using his green add-on that reduces his chainsaw cooldown while someone is shining a flashlight on him. It's a totally worthless add-on but it definitely fits this gimmick!)

    Pig: Amanda's Letter (aura reads) + Video Tape + Murky Reagent (purple mist); Pop / Discordance / Corrupt / BBQ

    Legion: Iri Button + Defaced Smiley Pin (mangled effect); Caulrophobia / Thana / Discordance / Pop

    Spirit: Dirty Uwabaki (speed) + Katsumori Talisman (duration); Ruin / Retribution / Thrill of the Hunt / Haunted Grounds

    They work though, even rank 1s.

    One of my favorites builds is:

    Healing is illegal

    Demogorgon

    Leprose Lichen + Deer Lung

    Sloppy Butcher + Coulrophobia + Thanataphobia + STBFL

    I portal around as much as possible after landing a few hits to make sure that as few heals as possible are completed. It's definitely overkill, but also extremely fun.

    Bond/Alert/Self Care/Kindred.

    It was my baby build so I could learn/watch how other people played while I shook my baby rattle in solo queue. I still like it when I'm feeling super boosted that day.
