Yeah, in my opinion he's balanced has the best hit and run of the stealth killers, good mobility, and his lunge that helps at short loops, and great add-ons. But, has weakness at open maps, good loops, and weakness to exhaustion and healing perks, also Med kits. But, what do you think?

    Can’t lie. He’s like old fashion Freddy with a dash of billy

    He's the easiest killer in Dead by Daylight to play and the most advanced skill that you can learn with him is his out of stealth dash and lunge. So, his skill ceiling is very low, his skill ceiling is about the same level as his skill floor and he's top of B tier or bottom of A tier.


    To put it in another way, he's roughly as strong as Demogorgon but requires much less skill to play well. You could take a killer with about 50 hours in this game and only using Wraith and they'd be able to beat survivors with 200 - 400 hours in this game.

    Balanced, but very boring and unskillful.

    If there were to be a killer who's power was at random at the end of the game, they could mori 2 survivors guaranteed. But the other 2 survivors would always escape, would you consider that OP, Balanced, or Trash.

    Overall skill expression matters.

    For a new player who's just starting with DBD Wraith is overpowered. They'll be basically given free hits, hooks, and sacrifices without having to know how to loop.

    Once the Wraith starts to verse competent pub survivors he is fairly balanced.

    And in a competitive match, he's complete trash. He can be light burned and a flash light can prevent wraith from cloaking at all in chase, a good survivor can prevent him from body blocking a window vault, and group communication means that he will never catch a survivor out positioned.
