I play survivor more than killer but when i play killer, my go to is Hag or Shape. Wondering thoughts on what killers are the best overall?

    In my opinion they are both weak killers, but if you want to have a killer with a lot of map pressure you can choose Hag.

    As @BrokenSoul said, Nurse is undoubtedly the strongest Killer in the game but she has a bit of a learning curve.

    Spirit, as I'm sure you know if you play Survivor a lot, is also incredibly powerful but nowhere near as hard as Nurse.

    Good learning Killers and Wraith, who is free, Freddy who requires money. Sorry if you already know some of this info, I'm not quite sure what you know or not. Bubba is also a pretty good learning character.

    Best as in strongest? Nurse, Spirit, Blight, Hag.

    Best as in most rewarding to learn and play? Blight, Plague, Oni, Huntress.

    Guess yes i mean as strongest, most lethal. Makes sense cuz lately as survivor, hardest ones i've delt with have been Nurse & Spirit. Don't fear Hag as much because I play her and know what she can do lol Wanna get more killers learned

    This question almost feels like it can be determined in different ways.

    Like @MadLordJack said, best as in strong? Well then you're looking at killers like Nurse, Spirit, Blight, and Hag. Best as in rewarding? Then you're looking at Blight, Plague, Oni, and Huntress. However I read this even a different way, best as in fun. In which case, that's kinda up to the person. I find Pig, Doc, and Ghost Face really fun but not everyone agrees with that.

    Haven't played Pig or Ghostface, but the Doc is actually fun. On the same hand , i hate surviving against Doc played by a skilled killer, shock therapy drives ya nuts! lol

    Play whoever you like and ignore tier lists and meta suggestions. This game is meant to be fun, and forcing yourself into a miserable experience will only make you dread playing the game.

    I main Doc and PH. The former bc I tend to perform poorly against stealthy survivors, the latter bc I love Silent Hill. I also happen to like both toolkits.

    Best killer to win is bubba with bamboozle. But u need to try all killers and choice most suitable for you. Experience with all of them.

    Edit: Oh almost forgot, hag and shape is weak killers. But they good at camping, i mean hag. Shape is strong but when i play him, i am loosing most of time.
