Cheryl and meg for chaos duo, and pyramid head cause of sh2 and his ass

Cheryl in her Christmas Sweater because she's adorable. Felix because Idunknow.
And Steve because of obvious reasons. He's got a great singing voice, and I appreciate it.
On the Killer-Side, Wraith because Bing-Bong. I've been maining him the past three years or somethin. I'm really starting to like Trapper though.

Nea(The Entity) and The Spirit(The most balanced killer)
Dont @me

I usually main Claudette. She’s hella stealthy. Could hide right near a downed teammate and pull off a save with mettle of man and borrowed time. Works 90 percent of the time lmao
0 -
survivor- Steve because I'm a stranger things fan and his outfits.
Killer- Doctor because I love his power and he's super scary to play against.
1 -
Dwight because he's cute. Claudette because sometimes blending is fun. Kate and Jane for being babes.
Plague for being a babe, Demo because he's fun, Billy and Huntress because fun.
1 -
Survivors: Meg, Yui, and if Claire Redfield is the RE character they add to the game, then she’ll be on there too.
Killer: no one really. Huntress is the killer I’ve played the most recently but I wouldn’t consider myself a Huntress main. I’d like to be a Spirit main again but just can’t because of her unfair gameplay.
0 -
Feng and Trapper.
Edit: Why? Because Feng looks so badass and Trapper because it forces me to play in a more tactical way.

Survivor: Jane, Cheryl, and Dwight are the ones I play most - they all have pretty attractive cosmetics and they're not disadvantageous, stats-wise. Except Dweet, but I can dress him up as a present and I can stick a locker on his hip, so I can't say no to him.
Killer: Plague because she's drop-dead gorgeous and I love her lore (tragic figures will always appeal to me more than the psychopaths), and because her power has some amusing applications as well as deadly ones. Pig because she's got a really fun playstyle and she entices survivors to be friendly out of nowhere, which leads to pretty fulfilling games for me. I also play a lot of Wraith and Hag, because they're both pretty strong killers who can catch players terribly off guard, but also have some hilarious meme potential in them too.

I main Kate (obviously haha) because of her backstory, mostly. The whole bit about the Entity being drawn to her song in the woods has a very sad siren feel to me which I think is really interesting.
She's got one of the more tolerable screams in the game.
She's got extremely cute cosmetics! You can put together some really nice outfits that are also not totally obnoxiously bright. Flower in the Dark is one of my favorite Survivor cosmetic sets.
Kate can also be deceptively stealthy. So much of her cosmetics shows a lot of her bright white skin, but if you use the Debut Night Curls (dark brown hair), Mustang Sally sweater (ugly sweater collection, hers is dark), and Route 66 Leather (black pants and boots) she's actually very camouflaged. I've hunkered in grass and corners Blendette style before and had Killers walk right by.
1 -
Meg, because I find her attractive and really like a lot of her outfits. Beyond that usually Dwight, because he tends to get some of my favorite perks the fastest.
I haven't really played enough killer to say that I main anybody but my favorites to play as so far are Wraith, Billy, Myers, and Legion.
0 -
Billy because he can down instantly and has great mobility. Bill because come on, Bill gave his last dying breath to save his team in Left For Dead. Gotta love Pop-Pop.
2 -
Nea because even when I play Survivor, I want to be the most dangerous thing in the trial.
Currently main Trickster cuz I thought he'd be fun (albeit weak), though I'm seriously considering going back to Legion or hopping over to Plague. Puking on turbo-nerds never gets boring.
1 -
I play this game for years now ... so I have some feelings for good old characters like Trapper, Billy and Wraith (######### the Nurse) from killer POV.
I also main quite old survivors (Meg, Claudette ... and Ace) ... but I play more and more frequently Jane and Kate (good looking chicks with great cosmetics) :)
0 -
I main Jake because he looks like a friend and I think it's funny. Otherwise it's Dwight because I like his perks.
For Killers I don't really main anyone, I haven't managed to buy new ones and none of the free ones interest me too much.
0 -
Pig because I like killing Survivors with the Reverse Bear Traps.
1 -
Felix, because... well, look at him.
3 -
Huntress because she's fun to go for shots with. Unless I get lots of swfs then Nurse :)
0 -
Freddy because he is best slasher.
Kate because she is cute and hot.
0 -
I main the killers Pig/Blight/Nurse. I like well thought out playstyles with pig being my first main with her ability to stall the game, I can take and control the game at my own pace alot of the time and it's just a good feeling. Blight and nurse because I like a technical challenge.
For Survivor I just play Tap because I love the SAW series and I love his stake out perk. I run Stake out, Dead hard, spine chill, and BT. This is a "cover all of my bases" based build. Stake out for quicker gen or healing completes, spine chill for anti Stealth, dead hard to help loop killers, and BT to allow me to save allies. Sometimes, I'll replace DH with Lithe.

Survivor: Dwight
His team-oriented play-style, nervous goody-goody nature, and affinity for lockers are something I relate with which draw me to him over others. Doesn't hurt that we sport similar hairstyles - I'm currently rocking the quarantine Dweard look though.
Killer: Ghost Face
If I was going to be a serial killer or otherwise murderer of some sort, regardless of my reasons, I'd definitely just want to have fun with it. Ghost face, from the playful trailer to the parodied Scary Movie series, and even the crouch spam with corner peaking, definitely makes him feel up my alley more than others in that regard.
2 -
Nurse, can actually beat 4 man SWF
0 -
Nea, mainly because of balanced landing and I really like the beany blonde head. It speaks to my inner 15 yr old sk8r girl.
As far as killer. I tend to switche every rank reset and its Nurse season. Really because she my least played killer and I kind of miss her.
0 -
i main oni, blight , and the twins/ Daphine uh I mean yin jin for surv too
Oni since I love how much fun I get from his power, I feel so powerful and I could also curve so well
blight since he is a speedy boi
twins: since they are the most unique killer and I just love playing the little gremlin
daph- er I mean Yin jin since I love her outfits and dressing up like Daphne from scooby do
0 -
Killer: Freddy
Freddy has been my main ever since I first started playing DBD, back in 2018. There countless reasons for that, but I believe the one thing that made fall in love with him was how unique he was back then when compared to the rest of the killer roaster.
Survivor: Claudette
Claudette has a tactical advantage (the art of blending), she has an interesting backstory, and she is really pretty... A perfect survivor.
Her model update might change this, but we shall see how that goes.
0 -
Plague, because I'm tired of everyone else.
Zarina, because I really like her.
1 -
Meg and Billy, mostly sticking to my old guns. Sometimes Kate and Oni, since he plays like flickbilly (flick back when)
0 -
Bubba, Doc, and Pyramid Head.
Bubba because he's easy to play and has some fun add-ons.
Doctor because it's incredibly easy to find hiding survivors and Order exists.
Pyramid Head because he is overwhelmingly difficult to bully and can actually punish greed and mistakes to a significant degree.
I also play a good deal of Wraith, Trapper, and Slinger.
0 -
I find it hard to just play as one or just a few Survivors so I usually alternate between all of them. One day will be Meg Day and one day will be Claudette Day and so on. Not allowed to switch and all the points I earn go on that one character.
I don't play Killer that often and when I do, it's usually just for challenges so it depends on the challenges. I do play as The Pig a lot just because I want boops.
0 -
For survivor, I main Adam. Play a lot of different survivors though, the other mainly being Ash and Yui.
For killer, it's Deathslinger and Plague. Used to be Twins, but they feel so awful to play now that they're not really fun anymore. Also really enjoying Blight now that he actually works on console.
0 -
Bill for 2 reasons: I leveled him up as my first character when I started playing for Borrowed Time, and 2, I don't buy cosmetics and he doesn't have any for sale. Needless to say, I won't hesitate to earn a time exclusive cosmetic with him without putting a single penny into the store (aka current rift.)
Wraith because it's fun to zoom around the map while invisible.
0 -
I've actually started maining Trickster. He actually kind of wrecks all the Survivor strategies that I hate going against. Holding W forever? You get a bunch of knives thrown at your back. We're at a low loop where it is impossible to mind game? No worries, I'll lob knives over it. God windows or pallets? Well if I've gotten a few knives in you already, I can get the hit anyway. You've got Dead Hard? I mean you'll probably dodge 1-2 knives but that's it. Yeah he's not great in high wall structures, but that's when you gotta get your mind game on and I like pulling off mind games.

Kate/Zarina - killers tend to not tunnel them, their screams/cries don't bug me, they have cosmetics I like.
Trapper - catching survivors in traps is very satisfying.
Ghostface - he's fine to mess around with survivors.
0 -
1. Blight - He's fast af boi! Also very fun.
2. Clown - He's hilarious.
3. Spirit - Also very fun. Reading survivors znd being right feels amazing!
0 -
I main Cheryl, Nea, and Kate. Cheryl because I really like her character from SH3, Nea because of her cosmetics, and Kate because I really like her backstory.
For killers, Spirit and Nurse. I main both of them because I really like their backstories and cosmetics, and I like their powers.
0 -
Feng, Elodie and Yui cause they are hot
Pig, Ghostface and PH because I have the most fun with them
0 -
Nea, because survivor is the power role and I'm secretly a killer main. Jk
Nea really though because early in my start of playing Dbd I was initiated into a late night nea gang run by a blue eyed mori spamming nurse.
0 -
Nobody. I dont have a main I just play lots of different killers and survivors. I could definetly say who I dont play often but I cant really say 1 specific main.
0 -
Ace: he is smiling in the entitys realm.
Killer: so many bc i like their power.
0 -
Killers: playing all besides the small pp ez mode meta ("freddy" , oni and especially spirit, never touching that disgrace)
Survivors: Claudette at dbd release, Nea as she released in 2016, then switched to Quentin when he came out, then to Kate. Waiting for a new survivor, preferable a fatty.
0 -
I swap between Dwight, Claud, Cheryl and Felix because all 4 of them have different builds and I really am lazy to switch perks on one survivor to play different builds every time I decide to do so.
For killers I main everyone, I think it's good for you to know every weakness and strength of every killer no matter if you're killer main or survivor main.
0 -
I rarely play survivor and they're all just model swaps, but Yui is the one I have the most perks and bloodpoints invested into so I guess I main her.
For killer I main Demo. His shred is just a really nice and simple chase ability and he has some of the best map mobility and pressure in the game when you set his portals up correctly. The one I play the 2nd most would be Plague. She's also a very easy and chill killer to play, and she just feels right imo.
0 -
Survivor: Kate because i like her looks. Yui same reason as Kate.
Killer: Dont really have a main but if i have to choose i will go for Trapper. It is very satisfying when u get to trap survivors on traps.
0 -
As Survivor, it would be Meg. She was the 1st one I played when I started, she was the 1st one I brought to P3, and she gets the most play out of me, even since I branched out to play other people. You always remember your first, lol. I mainly play survivors for the different cosmetics (since my builds are pretty identical from one to the other) -- one day, I might want to be a Buuny Feng, the next an Oktoberfest Kate, or maybe Disco Ace or Scoops Ahoy Steve -- but I always end up finding my way back to Meg.
As Killer, as much as I try to play a wide range, I have to call myself a Pig main at this point. I've played the most rounds as her, and she's the killer I'm the best with. I love her playstyle, the dynamic of the RBT's, the cute sound she makes when she gets stunned, and the meme potential with survivors who Boop the Snoot (which means you live against me, with pretty much no exceptions). I love playing Wraith and Doctor, I've been practicing my tail off at Huntress, Nurse, and Plague, I enjoy Trapper, Myers, and GF, and I want to improve at Pyramid Head -- but I always end up back with my Piggie. She wasn't the first killer I played regularly, but once I started with her, I was hooked (no pun intended).

Feng cause she has good cosmetics and her story relates to me. Parents against my passion for technology always trying to get me to follow math since I was good at that. Being seen as gifted as my talent with technology grew had huge potential to do something and because of that had a lot of pressure on me. But lost it to depression so I started looking for ways for thrill ending up resorting to drinking, drugs, and more. Then fell into a "spiral of self-destruction" as Feng's story puts it. The worst thing is I'm only 19 and haven't even lived a third of my life yet.

My main survivor is Jeff because he’s criminally underrated and I relate to him a lot. I also play Quentin because he’s my favourite NOES character and Jane because she’s cute
As for killer I main clown but play billy and slinger sometimes too
