What's a killer that makes you groan because you know you're about to have a bad time?
Nurse. Hands down. I never haver fun against her. I never survive her. I know the match is over before we even get one gen done. It's an unpleasant experience all around. She makes me wish there was an option to block going against specific killers cause then she'd be my first and only choice. I know she requires a lot of skill to use but the unskilled nurses are so far in between they might as well not even exist.

Used to be Doctor, but recently I'm getting more annoyed with Freddy leaving dream snares at the exit gates and having nothing I can do about it.

Ghostface.
The reveal system is so wonky. Usually I can't reveal him if he's standing in the wide open 10 feet away.
But if I'm sneaking out of an area purposely not looking at him it will start telling him somebody is looking at him. So I get found.

legions can be boring sometimes because of the constant mending if they combine it with ruin and you spend half the time you should be looking for it either mending or avoiding the terror radius or other survivors while they're using their power. doctor if I can while they're hooking somebody I'll try and knock off a more mid oriented gen and then just hug the opposing corners of the map from where i see the other guys lit up while they keep the doctor's attention if I don't have calm spirit on. some freddy can be boring for the same reason as legion, slow games. Minus the mending sometimes, but some seem to like franklin's especially if you got a good toolbox. I understand that, but, ten minute games from deliberate slow downs are boring as hell regardless of how many points you make. If we had to get 7 gens and they increased the amount on the map by 2 or 3... that would not feel the same as deliberate slow down tactics. In fact, 6 gens to power the gates might be a little more fun sometimes, but not with some maps.

Doctor..About 90% of the time a Doctor is a Salty Survivor main..And in those 90% they are gonna slug and not even bother hooking you If you are the last guy alive. They will not even summon the entity they just will not let you play.

Playing as Nurse, Plague, Spirit or DeathSlinger.
Gotta grit my teeth and force myself to go through with it, as it's the only way to learn how to use them and the aftergame chats going to be saltier than McDonalds fry. Only play them when I have dailies/for the rift challenges.
Playing against would be Doc and Hag, I do not like the jumpscares. ^_^'

I wouldn't say I *hate* playing against any killers, but I usually don't expect to have much fun against Spirit, Plague, or Freddy.

Freddy, I tend to not play those matches to begin with and just move on to one I potentially do enjoy.

Freddy. That man drives me crazy

Hag.

Freddy, the Chases are just dull. You can clearly see how some of those play when you are awake for a while (e.g. just got a clock, Freddy arrives for a chase). They are so helpless sometimes against awake Survivors, but get their Hits due to the poor design of Freddy.
Hag would also be a contestant for Spot Number 1, but I luckily dont see her often.
A while I really hated to go against Twins, because some players just love to go all in on their camping potential, but the Twins-players over the last days were alright.

Hag, Freddy, Doc, Plague, Deathslinger, Legion
The rest I can tolerate (even nurse and spirit) but damn those guys make me want to scream and roll around in the floor and jump up and down like a monkey

When I start the trial as a sleeping obsession, I say to myself, "isn't there other games to play?"

Ditto.
I do not enjoy playing against Legion or Spirit either but Freddy takes the cake by a long(arm) shot.
2 -
Bubba, cause there's an 80% chance he's gonna camp with insidious and noed.
It might be a meme build but for people on the receiving end of it, it's the epitome of boring and lazy.

Solo queue matches vs Forever Freddy

The Claudette who drops the closest pallet as soon as the match starts; who is then instantaneously found, downed less than 10 seconds into the chase, and suicides on 1st hook

Seeing 2 DC’s at the start of a match from survivors who are scared to face particular killers
1 -
Nurse, The hag, Michael myers, The nightmare, Oni, Plague.
Mostly these killers, as long as i face good players.
I never won against Oni and The Nightmare, they are definitely so annoying to play against.
But to tell you the truth, if a killer takes me down in a single hit, it's really going to be a game that is unlikely to survive.
0 -
Spirit, mostly because there's little counterplay involved especially when every spirit is using stridor

Essentially any killer with the ability to down multiple survivors in the same minute, Ghostface and Leatherface are horrible IMO, but Micheal is cool solely for the fact that I was somehow able to give him solely a character in my head and whenever I see him I just go in a stern parent voice “Micheal.... Micheal... Stop that right now Micheal” and other stuff along those lines, so it’s more fun than annoying with most Micheals

Freddy or DS. Nothing to do with their power levels.
I just find Freddy to be boring game play. It's the same reason I find Clown boring. You just drop pallets early. There isn't much interactive game play. The only reason Freddy is above Clown is because you don't see Clown enough to be bothered.
DS is also because of uninteractive game play. A quick scope shot has no wind up or cooldown on use so there's no feedback to play with unlike Huntress. You're just mid chase randomly wiggling at random times guessing when he'll decide to shoot. Once again though, he doesn't need any nerfs at all, I'd even buff him actually, he just needs a more interactive design.

There are killers I struggle against like Myers and Oni and there is Freddy is who is simply not fun to play against

Everything about Freddy is dull and so incredibly boring. He's the most cookie-cutter, basic killer in the entire game, more than Legion (at least you need good fundamentals with Legion). I'd honestly rather go against Deathslinger or Spirit because at least with those killers they have an interesting visual design and chase music, and I can acknowledge when a Slinger has a good aim. But with Freddy there's literally nothing that separates a good Freddy from a bad one. It's all the same.

Hah. I have a freaking list.
1. Freddy the annoyance
- He's generally unfun to play against and is quite literally braindead. He takes NO goddamned skill to play or use. The dream snares/pallets are stupidly abusable, zero cool down and it's hard to tell what's real and fake. He can openly teleport between any gens he feels like, so running BBQ on him is a must for all the pumpkin spice latte players who just love to play as him.
He's easy to get a kill by face camping, spaming dream snares around hooked survivors and slugging. Easy to mori with and impossible to escape. The hatch is always found before anything else; it's grown to the point where I either DC or purposely get myself killed to avoid dealing with him. Sorry, try again when you're not the hag on steroids. I could go on and on about him but let's keep moving.
2. IT'S TIME FOR YOUR TREATMENT! 20 DOSES OF PAIN AND BLOOD!
- The doctor. He's MORE than tolerable in this list but he's disgusting. If i'm not maining jake and I'm running my meg, I'm screwed. It's lile every 30 second he spams his aoe. Luckily, the easiest counter is lockers and staying THE HELL out of his terror radius, and I'm a stealth main so that's easy to do. The problem is when we reach the end of the game, either he camps between 2 - 3 gens making it impossible to repair without all of us getting madness; and like any other killer, they have ruin making it impossible to repair gens at that point. Easy 4k for them, disgusting and bad time for us.
Not to mention, they spam carter spark lile there life depends on it which is OH so frickin annoying. Looping them is somewhat easy in the first part but when they start spamming there ability, I lowkey wanna RQ AND THEM THEY HAVE THE AUDACITY TO FACECAMP OR SLUG. At that point, IDC; You can take your RQ points, I'm not dealing with you.

I have a list - Part 2.
3. HAH, THE MUD QUEEN!
- The goddamned hag. I dont think I need to say much to get the point across on this one. Universally hated, known for camping, slugging and have an overall DISGUSTING play. She's like Freddy but easier. Rewards survivors for All the horrible moves that would only be acceptable if yoy hadn't gotten a kill. Then they have the audacity to run Undying with other hex based perks making our life a hell; IN ADDITION TO HER ADD-ONS WHICH MAKE IT SO THAT SHE CAN TRIGGER IT WHENEVER SHE PLEASES.
Again, i'd take the DC penalty then place against you, Espeically when you play like that. Disgusting piece of- not gonna go there.
4. The legion - Thanta + Mending + ruin go brr.
Nuff said. Everyone knows this pain and with there little red pinbutton add-on, this easily surpasses the hag. Disgusting. Get out my face.

For the record, I can wait out the DC Penalty; I dont really care for it. I can just binge watch Evagelion while I wait.
0 -
Edit: Legion is still number 4 but the build I see and hate the most is this.
Thanta, sloppy butcher, Ruin, BBQ. Toxic and annoying. + mending? You're not finishing that game; EVER.
0 -
Freddy for obvious reasons.
A stridor Spirit. Again for obvious reasons.
Deathslinger. Unless he has bad aim then you're getting shot and reeled in.

Freddy, Pyramid Head and Spirit, they are usually played by sweatlords with the cheesiest builds and the cheesiest strats aiming for nothing else but the highest amount of stomp with the less amount of effort possible (at least Nurses and Huntresses have to work hard for those stomps).
