Should I invest my time?

I started playing ~5 days ago and have reached rank 10 killer, and vsing rank 2-5's every game they all seem to have the exact same build of Sprint Burst, DS, Dead Hard/Unbreakable and Adrenaline.

I've heard there are some killer perks that may help with dealing with the tryhards (like Pop, Ruin, Monitor) but then I'd just become one myself, is it worth it to invest the time to get these perks, will the game become fun again if I do this?

Secondary question, is it even fun playing that survivor build every game?

    Game does get better with better perks / skill on killer. If nothing else, perks like Corrupt or Ruin / Undying can completely change the pace of the game.

    And yes, it is fun running meta builds.

    I guess it is all in your perspective and how long you plan to play the game. I have almost all characters P3 and have unlocked every perk. But that is just me.

    I like being able to play any build i want.

    It is really how much do you want to grind.

    To answer your question, having those perks can help keep the game fun on killer side.

    To your other question, no, I don't find meta builds fun, sometimes I'll go perkless just to challenge myself again, but I personally find themed/meme builds (all eye perks, only aura reading, team medic) to be the most fun to use.

    I would say nope

    I don't think it's very fun to run meta builds on either side and I also don't think it's necessary to have meta builds on either side to do well. If you're not having fun playing killer, I don't think that's likely to change much until MMR goes live again, or until you just pay the time tax to become a better player.

    Matchmaking and RNG ruins the fun for me personally. Because there are far more survivors than there are killers, DBD will throw any killer into any match regardless of rank, which always ends up ruining the fun for those that are less experienced.

    I'm rank 14 in killer myself, but lately all I keep getting are red rank survivors. Everything's a sweat fest lately and I'm tired of it, so I stopped playing.

    I think it's kinda boring to run the same builds over and over again. But that's just my point of view, for survivor and killer.
