Deathslinger in S and Billy above Bubba are interesting choices.

Here is mine:

Yeah, there’s no way Hillbilly is better than Bubba, he should be in the second lowest tier. Has almost nothing going for him other than map traversal, way harder to instadown against good survivors than Bubba is.

I disagree with a few of the placements but that's just a difference of opinion.
Really just wanted to say I appreciate the fact you had your lowest tier as B and you had mini tiers inside each tier. Usually most people have their tiers include a D tier which I believe no killers are in. Lowest I think anyone is, is C tier but no one is below that.

Mine even has an F 👀

You're going to have a hard time convincing me Myers is better than Legion... Tombstone aside.
0 -
Tbf, Trapper without a bag add-on is absolutely a D tier Killer.

I am not going to convince you of anything. This is just my opinion, which you are free to disagree with.

Alright, let me rephrase.
May I ask your reasoning? Won't even try to dispute it and cause an argument. Just wondering.

If Nemesis is A tier then PH must be A+
0 -
Now we are talking!
Myers has stealth and insta-downs as base kit. He can choose between different approaches, not to mention that he is extremely deadly with the right builds and add-ons.
Legion has nothing but a power which can't even down you. Not saying that he is completely useless, but his power is much weaker than everyone else's because he has nothing going for him.

I want someone to make a teir list thread rating the different teir list threads on the forum.

This is a good idea.

Nurse and Spirit are in there own tier surely? S for those two with the best of the rest in A tier.
0 -
Yea that is definitely too far lol you literally should never win a game with him if he's F tier lol
Trapper is to me the worst killer in the game but I believe every killer has enough tools to win most games.
If Otz can have Trapper as his main and win 50 games in a row with him then surely he can't be D tier lol I know he used the bag add-on but he did run 1 less perk.

Which rank are u that you put PH so low? you clearly don't face good pyramid heads.
0 -
Legions way better than mikey
Both are just m1 killers, except legion has way better map presence since he can run and doesnt have to get out of tier 1. Once all the survivors are injured theyre essentially exposed except you can get them all there faster and more often than Mikey.
Mikeys ONLY advantage is he can sneak up on survivors, which is 100% useless in reds
0 -
Ohtz himself also said the streaks shouldnt be considered in determining if a killer is viable or not as in all cases he was lucky he didnt face better survivors. He also regularly talks about how bad trapper is and how he needs to be buffed.

Surprised you put Plague below Nemesis tbh. Far better in terms of infection as a mechanic, Can hit at a distance and over objects with corrupt purge, can hit multiple survivors with it, and also not required to hit for 3 health states, better addons. VS 3 health states, questionable zombie AI, ability to hit over/destroy pallets in tier 2. I don't understand the reasoning.
0 -
Glad to see. I thought about it, but I think Trickster is slightly better because his power can actually down you.
1 -
Yeah everyones good in DBD which although its not the most balanced game is well balanced in terms of ability to express yourself in a or different ways. People who rate killers D and F really dont know the game imo and or they are survivor mains. To me C tier means bad and at that point the character isnt playing the meta or doesnt have a meta base. Clearly every killer has at least a decent base which is why Trickster isnt C+ to me. He's just as good as Trapper, Doctor and Legion who are killers that can definitely 4K and or pip (or double pip) against red ranks. These killers cant handle bad (counter play) maps more than other killers but can most certainly hold their own.
0 -
My tier list is based on killers with their best variety of perks and add-ons. Even Trapper with no addons may be a C, not even D+
0 -
Honestly, I think the Twins & PH deserve to be A, even if it was A-. I think they’re strong enough.

Why are you asking what rank i am? I main killer and this is my tier list lol. To answer your question though frequently play killer at rank 1. Also dont assume i am making a tier list with no experience i've fought Pyramid Head a number of times at different ranks and ALSO hes one of the killers i play. Pyramid Head is not low, hes A tier. Why do you think A tier is low?
Hes just better than her. Corrupt Plague is strong but you can crouch the purge while a pallet is down and then you can get away and shes forced to break the pallet at some point, with Nemesis he plays it better because he can destroy it. I see what your saying with Plague though, your saying she should be higher but im not too sure about that..her bad maps are BAD!! lol

You've just proven my point a little mate. He said the streaks shouldn't be used to determine if a killer is "viable".
A B/C/D tier killer isn't viable. Viable basically means vs the best teams you have a chance which I believe is only for A and S tier killers.
0 -
Its the "tools to win most games" part i was speaking to. Thats only true when facing survivors below your skill level. If the killer isnt viable they dont do well in reds
0 -
I don't know where the thing you quoted is from tbh. Pretty much every killer does well in red ranks since red ranks are full of below average players. It's why the kill rates are all above 50%. It's very rare you meet a good solo q red rank player, very rare to see a decent red rank swf and extremely rare to see a very good swf.
Also we need to clarify something. When people talk about a killer being viable it has nothing to do with if a killer can do well vs red ranks, it's if they can do well vs the top % of the game. These players are the 4 man swfs who are all really good at the game.
To me if Trapper was a D or less tier killer then no one (including Otz) would be able to win that often vs red rank players as him.
0 -
I base my tiers a little on the skill of players they can beat.
To me C tier is a killer who can lose to 4 solo players if a bad map rears it's head or you get unlucky somehow.
B tier is a killer who should beat all solo q players but may struggle vs a decent swf. Could be because they drop pallets early or the use the tools they're given just enough to slow you down.
A tier is a killer who should beat pretty much everyone except for a really good swf team. The team that has no weak links.
S tier should beat everyone unless in a competitive tournament. If you play well then your pretty much guaranteed to win vs anyone and any group.
This is where I base my views on. These are all under the impression you will play that killer well, but not to a "this killer is my main" level.
