    The Trapper

    Trapper, he is a simple killer, just putting some strategy and randoms traps over the maps it's my favorite playstyle

    Though question.
    They're all very much deserving of praise, but I almost choose the Nurse or the Doc instead.

    I'm glad the Doctor is on the top. He might not be the strongest but he is really fun to play as.

    Something about hag is interesting to me. I love an animalistic killer who also uses voodoo magic to murder her prey.

    The Trapper
    The trapper he actually wasn’t the first killer I used that was the wraith. There is something about the trapper that makes it so I love using him and it isn’t his best traps because I forget he has them.

    Definitely Mr Bing Bong Boi. There's something satisfying about hooking a survivor then cloaking- makes me feel like a boss. :)

    Huntress has been my main since she was release, so satisfying playing her.

    The Hag

    its so satisfying to outplay survivors with well placed traps with ether the camera swing forcing them down the wrong path (or into a corner) or by simply preying on their looping by trapping pallets, feels very much like I earn my kills as hag in ways I don't feel with other killers (barring nurse) since it requires good skill and mind games.

    that and aesthetically she looks awesome, and its always nice to play the characters that no one else plays :chuffed:

    Its so fun to fly around the map with the chainssaw and just hit every survivor with that

    The Hillbilly

    i love billy. they could nerf him down to the ground and i'd still play him.... i'm not good though. i'm on a PS4 but i believe the term for me is an M1 billy. i mainly use the saw for transportation....

    Even though I barely play him, Hillbilly with TOTH + DH + BBQ + Overcharge is perfect.

    The Doctor

    Simply because he plays so differently then the others, since his terror radius isn´t a weakness but a strength.

    Doctor because he adapts to my playstyle. When it comes to finding survivors I suck, so he really helps me.

    The Huntress

    I don't actually play her because she is bugged (and thus unplayable) on consoles, but Huntress is my favorite. If she wasn't completely broken I would use her over Freddy most likely because I find her ability fun to use (when it feels like it works). She is also the most interesting character-wise, because she doesn't really fit a pre-defined horror trope. And her story is more interesting that the other killers.

    The Trapper

    My favorite would be Trapper. He's been in the game since day one and he's been my main killer ever since. You cant get any more original than him.

    The Hag
    Hag, though Doctor is a close second. I like both because they have the ability to counter loops and herd survivors more easily, but I don't have to be a blinkmaster to use them.

    I suck HARD at nurse. The last time I tried to do a nurse ritual I ended up blinking at the ground over and over while a survivor ran circles around me, and it took me five or six tries to get the last blink hit I needed.

    As for playing AGAINST them, I have a love/hate relationship with both Hag and Doctor.

    For Hag, I hate playing against bad Hag players. Invariably they place every trap they own and then some around the hook and always teleport back. GOOD Hags, OTOH... They are SCARY. Nowhere is safe, and every corner could be a magnet for my nose.

    Against the Doc... Well, sometimes I just want to DC when I see the killer put in a puzzle piece offering. I don't actually DC (I've only ever RQ once), but I know it's probably a Distressing/Unnerving Doctor with Iridescent King and Polished Electrode. Ugh.

    A Doc on a semi-open map with places that are out of range of his static field can be quite fun to go against, though.

    The Huntress. Just something kinda disturbing about her.

    The Hag

    Voted for the hag but i like a lot of them.
    I just find it very enjoyable to play as the hag with Mint Rag and Rusty Shackles, i teleport to somewhere and they don't expect it, always hoping i gave them an enjoyable spook while they play :D.

    But i really like huntress, doctor and nurse as well, they change the survivor gameplay (imo) and that's what i like.

    The hag is my favorite she was the first killer I tried out(mind you I did awful the first few matches I tried her)and she is the killer I have the most game sense with I love tactical approaches in games and shes based around just that!! and Im doing really well with her now win more than I lose a match

    Good job, keep it up! There's few Hag players out there so i'm always happy to see people enjoy her!
    Hope you're having a nice day and have fun with your games!

    Nurse was the killer I absolutely wanted to learn when I first played the game. Her design and playstyle were just so unique to me.

    The Huntress

    I mostly play survivor so I vote from the survivor-side: The huntress is extremely fun to play against. Dodging an axe successfully always gives me a weird thrill :D

    The Hillbilly

    My Favorite was actually The Cannibal

    But since he is the Licensed killer, if i had to pick my favorite Original killer, it will be The Hillbilly. It's not because they both similar, but because i think the hillbilly power helps him to catch up survivors and maybe even downed them if you good. so i think his power is useful.

    He isn't the best balance wise,
    but the feeling you get when someone steps in your trap is the best
