Who Is Your 'Main'?
Killers and survivors, do you have that one special character you love to play, or do you mix and match?
How do you specifically like to play them?
For me, it's the Hag. I enjoy Doctor, Bubba, Spirit and trying to learn Freddy (just...can't grasp him) - but I always come back to my Blair Witchy love. So much fun, so many jumpscares administered, just a ball all round.
How about you?

Doctor is my favorite Killer but I also play Freddy, Demogorgon, Plague, Wraith, and Pyramid Head. I love shocking everyone and stopping loops quickly.
Laurie is my main Survivor because of the franchise she comes from.

I have Meg, Nea, Feng, Claud, Kate, Zairina, and Cheryl all p3 all perks
i bounce between who I feel like playing

As my killer main i would describe deathslinger although i'm enjoying blight atm. Sometimes i play nurse, but all other options lack chase potential or fun factor imo.
I main kate because she got very nice cosmetics and looks like aloy from horizon zero dawn.

Pig for killer. I don't care that she's not the strongest killer around, and I like her toolbox approach to a match. I also play a fair bit of Doctor and Legion.
As for survivors, I generally play Yui now, but I have builds that I tend to jump between on Kate and Claudette as well.
1 -
Plague is the only killer I use anymore. She's just so much fun. Sometimes I don't even try to kill survivors I just run around puking on them.
As for survivor Kate and her horse Christmas sweater are the one for me. I love how she sounds too.
0 -
Kate is my overall main. She's easily got the majority of my playtime out of any character, killer or survivor.
As for killers, I mostly play a few. In descending order of mainness: Blight, Deathslinger, Plague, Ghostface. I play most of the others as well, but those are the ones I usually enjoy the most.

Pyramid head+ bubba
Other killers i like: doc, ghostface and oni.
For survivor: Ash groovy Williams

Tried Plague a few times, can't seem to get her to work. I think I'm missing something there.
0 -
Befor it was Micheal but I think I will switch to Ghostface because he is more fun to play for me.
By Survivor I haven't any main.
1 -
Is Oni any fun? He seems so...bizarre.
Like playing a huge, murderous Pacman...
0 -
I primarily play as Nea, but I like to switch it up with Quentin or Ash
1 -
I'm a dweet main, have been for 4 years. I relate to him so much. But I do pretty much play all survivors. Mostly Claudette, David, Meg, Yui, and Cheryl.
As for killer, I mained Legion and Doctor but since Blight came out, I'm in love. Plus my name on xbox is Blight Boi so I'm gonna start maining him.
1 -
I really don't have a main, I just level up people to to get the teachable perks that I want. then I reset them and movie on. I'll get back to the other ones in time. same for killers I don't have a main and I don't play them much unless I have a ritual and even they're annoying to do with some super toxic survivors

As killer, deathslinger and blight. I started learning deathslinger a month ago, and he's too much fun once you learn him. I'm trying to learn blight as well, and he's a ton of fun :D.
For survivor, I main Steve and Ash, because I like their cosmetics.
0 -
My main is Ghost Face. I play Pyramid Head, Pig, and Trapper on the side. I use the others sometimes as well.
0 -
Idk Claudette is so cute with those glasses and has been my main since I started playing. As for killer, Oni. Like damn that guy is so buffed and I find his power pretty fun to use. If am not feeling like playing him I switched to Demo even do I suck ass playing him lol
0 -
Sorry...reset them?
0 -
Was Clown in the early days, now Pyramid Head. Dabbled with Spirit for a bit a long time ago. Mostly though I cycled between killers. However I'm on a PH spree at the moment.
I like the chases most so I'll sacrifice map pressure to play a killer that's good in the chase. I prefer the fast paced chase - chase - chase gameplay rather than the slower more strategical gameplay of some other killers. Not only is PH good in a chase, but he even doesn't need to mess about with the slow hooking process, and he has some surprisingly good tracking to find them even faster so yeah he's the most fun in a long time for me.

I don't really main any one killer; I tend to cycle through several to keep gameplay feeling more "fresh". I do generally enjoy playing Leatherface, Huntress, Wraith, and now Blight much more than the other members of the cast, though the only killers I really don't like and actively avoid playing are Ghost Face and Nurse.
For survivors, my "main-est" survivor is David; I have him at P3 with all survivor perks unlocked. I'm absolutely planning to eventually set up Felix as another "main" to use, and then I may also try to bump Dwight and Tapp up to that level later (after I finish P3'ing the last few killers).
0 -
I totally don't main Myers, who said that?
1 -
prestige them whatever
0 -
I have been no lifing blight since he came out.
0 -
Deathslinger and Ace.
I play most of the other killer occasionally but most of my playtime is set on slinger since he came out. Norhing comes close to be as fun for me as slinger is.
And obviously Ace is the best survivor without any competition so there is no need to play any other.
0 -
Adam\Nea have mainly been my mains. I was playing Laurie before Felix came out cause I'm going through a 70s kick. Right now I'm playing Meg(ugh) until I get Felix leveled up then he will be my main with Laurie. The reason for Meg is her Dorothy Gayle bows that just came out...

I play a couple of games using whatever killer is in my oldest daily mission each night so I don't really main anybody in particular. But in terms of how much I enjoy playing the killers, my favorite three are Doctor, Clown, Freddy for similar reasons, namely that they're all 115% movement killers with some anti-loop capability and who all use basic attacks. For whatever reason I think this is my preferred style of play right now. Doc has the weakest anti-loop among them but his tracking is amazing which keeps him consistently in a chase most of the match. Clown is the strongest chaser out of the three but that's all he can do so overall he's the weakest. Freddy is probably the strongest killer among them in general, his anti-loop is almost as good as Clown's but he also has an incredibly good teleportation ability that helps him keep pressure up across the map.

Oh. I legitimately did not know you could do that :)

i usually main a character for a while, then i drop them for someone else.
the only one that really holds a special place in my heart would be the Trapper, though i havent played him a whole lot lately.
currently im definitely a Deathslinger main though.
0 -
I mainly only play Survivor, but I do have Killers I used to main/who I am interested in playing whenever I get around to it.

- Felix
- Nancy
Killers:
- Spirit
- Clown
- Hag

As survivor, I got three who I play the most rn.
1) Claudette Morel
Blendie main, always have been and always will be. She holds a special place in my heart and I love my girl Claudie to death.
2) David king
David is hotter than Felix :))
3) Yui Kimura
I despised Yui ngl, but then I bought an outfit to match with my bf and P3 50'd her for him so now I don't mind her as much.
As killer, here are the top 3:
1) The Nightmare
Freddy will always be my main. I love everything about him, loved him pre-rework and post-rework.
2) The Executioner
Not only can Pyramid Head crush me with his thighs whilst I thank him, he's also really fun to play!
3) The Nurse
I've put so much time into her recently I guess she's now considered one of my mains. I've got a long way to go but I'd consider myself above average, provided I don't get Badham or Yamaoka
0 -
My main killer is Oni since his release.
My main survivor, I wanna say Dwight but currently I've been using Heather since the SH dlc (I just love the silent hill games 1-3 feck the rest)
0 -
Demo foreva
Cheryl is cool too I guess
0 -
My main survivors are ace jake and currently Felix and I have no killer mains

I play pretty much every killer except Huntress and Slinger. My 'mains', in no particular order, are: Doc, Hag, Legion, Wraith, Bubba, Freddy, and Daddy Myers.
At least until this week. Now it's all Blight all the time. I still can't even tell how strong he is, but he's just too much fun.
1 -
Very tempted to grab Oni at some point.
What about him makes him fun?
0 -
Silly karu, oni can't be in all 3 spots for your favourites.
0 -
I play every killer, but if I absolutely need a win, I am going doc. I'm also deadly with deathslinger and hag.
0 -
There is one thing I wish for more than the deletion of Oni from Dead By Daylight.
0 -
My main is Spirit but I've been taking a break from her, and mostly use her whenever I just wanna relax, or if it's one of those days that survivor's are super sweaty.
As for survivor Dwight is daddy and that is official!
1 -
Myers is my Killer Main, until I manage to get fully competent with him. I don't have a Main from the Survivors because they are all just Skins. I play whichever Skin seems interesting to me on a given day.
0 -
Killer: Clown...duh... but I also play Freddy, Plague, Doc, GF, a little of Demo & LF, and now Blight.
Survivor: David, but I’m now gonna main Felix.
0 -
Cheryl Mason. I play her as someone altruistic but not stupid. Meaning I will risk a lot save others, especially when against her nemesis, Pyramid Head. But I won't die for a lost cause. Also I'm not brave in real life, so playing a daring and sefless character is a real thrill.
And I always play solo, so having the perk Blood Pact gives me a connection to the killer's Obsession, I never feel that alone in the game.

“Meaning I will risk a lot save others, especially when against her nemesis, Pyramid Head. But I won't die for a lost cause.”
Hehe, this is EXACTLY why I actually LOVE the perk Buckle Up. I prefer to play altruism/medic builds, and help as many as I can. BUT... I don’t want to waste my time on anybody that’s a “lost cause”, so I like that Buckle Up tells me which slugs are recovering, and who’s just damn lazy and I shouldn’t bother with.

Since I play the game casually and can't invest hours upon hours into getting better (work + parenting makes that a tad difficult 🙂), I usually bounce back and forth between Freddy, Pyramid Head, and Bubba. If I need the blood points I usually fire up Legion or the Doctor.
Lately it's been incredibly difficult now that the MMR is off, because I'm getting matched with people who are clearly more skilled than I am. I don't mind losing, but having countless matches where I'm not very effective can be really crushing.

For survivor its obviously Dweet. Love my Dweet.
For killer its Daddy Myers. I love making survivors believe in the boogeyman.
0 -
Killer: Pig, Clown, Micheal/Ghostface
Survivor: Kate, with Cheryl and Bill secondaries
1 -
Wraith 100%. I enjoy other killers, namely Deathslinger, Clown, Ghostface, Demo, Doc, Legion, Billy, and Oni, but not to the extent as Wraith. He was my first true killer main and always will be <3
0 -
Interesting. I thought I'd love him, but I...just can't seem to get him to work. The second people see Wraith, it's flashlights up the jacksie.
Also, I don't think I'm as invisible as I should be. People are constantly waltzing out and running around me teabagging.
Would love to know more as the killer does appeal to me. Adore sneaky/stealthy types.
0 -
As survivor, I main Jake
As killer, I main Blight, but and I also play Demo and Huntress.
0 -
Pyramidhead because i like Silent Hill 2, i'll probably still play him after they change him if they don't butcher him
Spirit used to be my main since she came out but with the sounds being bugged, she is just to frustrating right now so i stopped playing her as much
Oni or Billy cause i like to run fast
Jane, Bill and Meg are my most played survivors.
