Best builds for Nighttime Matchmaking?

Im unbearably sick and tired of having literally the most boosted teammates on planet Jupiter, followed up by a rank 1 killer who dominates my entire teaming, (including me) and when its time for me to play killer, I get the most 9000+ hours 4 man rank 1s that can counter any build, loops, and know what to do if I leave a chase or not. I thought nighttime was a moment of relaxation? Not sweat your ass off and wake up the next morning feeling #########.


I really need some recommendations of nighttime survivor and killer builds. Because at this point, id rather play among us during the night than dbd.

    The nighttime build for Survivor is Decisive, Unbreakable, Soul Guard and Dead Hard. With a med-kit. If you really want to know about it.

    But if you want something strong but less boring. I’d run Inner Strength, Detective’s Hunch, Decisive Strike and Dead Hard. It’s reliable healing without burning a med-kit and counters the infamous Ruin/Undying combo

    play freddy with full slowdown perks and addons

    might make the survivors fall asleep IRL for some free kills!

    Uh, night is when the sweatiest players play. Full-party SWF teams that only have 4 open schedules late in the evening, and killers that are tired of dealing with it.

    Forever Freddy is worse than Iri huntress. Don't @ me.

    If you're ever having a bad night as killer and don't care about the survivors having fun, just play ruin/undying/tinkerer Freddy with rope and drawing of your choice as addons.

    As for survivor, I'm a big fan of dead hard/kindred/BT/x. With the x being either DS, small game, bond, or windows of opportunity.

    Corrupt / Pop / BBQ Freddy. Super easy, practically plays for you. Put on bamboozle to keep it extra braindead.

    Enduring / Bamboozle Leatherface with yellow or purple chili. It's less about the survivors looping you and more about holding W around the loops not hitting stuff.

    Rusty shackles hag, any perks. Lay trap, press control, collect free hit / down.

    Ghostface/Wraith with an indoor map offering, any perks.

    Those are probably the easiest killer builds I can think of without a mori.
