Who's the most overrated killer, underrated killer, and a killer who is rated nicely.

For me it goes, Oni is overrated, Legion is underrated, and Huntress is rated fine.

    Overrated I'd say Bubba. I still dont know how people can put him above Billy.

    Underrated I'd say Clown, although I might be biased as he is my main.

    Nicely rated I'd say Blight as the third best in the game.

    Yes I love clown! I used to main him until I bought legion.

    Overrated? Spirit (I just seem to be able to do so horribly on her, that I ruin the whole 'op curve') 😁

    Underrated? Trapper. He needs his buffs, but I still do well as him. Probably because I place traps in areas you would not normally go; everyone expects a trap in the chokepoint. But the trap 6 feet around the wall instead? SNAP!

    Nicely rated? Hmm...Doctor. 😁

    Overrated: Bubba. It is not unusual to see people who consider him way stronger than he actually is.

    Underrated: The most underrated killer in DBD's history was Old Freddy. People kept saying he was a low tier killer, even though he was not even close to the low tier. Now, I would say Billy is the most underrated.

    Rated Perfectly: Huntress. She is high tier, and everyone agrees with that.

    Hillbilly overrated. Plague underrated. Nurse rated nicely.

    Overrated is huntress 100% either you will lose badly with her, or dominate with her. But I do feel people think she is better than she truly is, if you look at the best huntresses when they lose, they lose badly. Mainly her lullaby is what makes her overrated.

    The most underrated killer would be clown I have to say, he has one the best anti loop mechanic in the game people think he is weaker than he really is.

    The perfectly rated would be blight since everyone can agree he do damage if he is good, and not in indoor map.

    Ovverated: Spirit. The only thing she needs is a way to tell she started phasing. Its that one thing that make people think shes op. Shes really not

    Underrated: Legion. They do need a lot of love but theyre not in the lower 5

    Rated Nicely: Trickster. Hes AWFUL

    Underrated: Freddy, maybe? I feel he is one of the stronger killers in the game. He isn't busted, but he is still top tier, in my ever so humble opinion. I feel he often gets overlooked just because other killers are more egregiously overturned.


    Overrated: Trapper. How anyone puts him above anything but dead last is a mystery to me.


    Rated Fine: I agree with a lot of people here, Trickster takes the cake.

    Overrated: Doctor

    Underrated: Pig (people focus way too much on the rare scenarios people have a trap on for only 1 box search, I've played enough Pig games to know it is actually not as much as people claim it to be)

    Rated Fine: Trickster

    Overrated would be Spirit, underrated would be Oni, and right rated would be Hag.

    Overrated: Pig. I see people put her above bottom tier. She has extremely limited chase power. Pre-dropping pallets against her is stronger than against ANY other killer. She's really good against potatoes, don't get me wrong. But against good survivors? It requires a bit of luck to go your way.

    Underrated: Hag. People really don't understand how powerful she can be in the right hands.

    Rightly Rated: Nurse. Does anyone disagree she's the top killer?

    Overrated: Doctor, the rework was nice but it didn't do nearly as much as people think. His tracking is his best thing about him and even that can be countered by lockers just have to keep an ear out.


    Underrated: Plague, I see people put them in the lower tiers when their snowball is absolutely insane and they also counter all healing perks and more importantly iron will. Absolutely destroys disorganized teams that don't agree on a cleansing strategy.


    Rated Right: Executioner, I think everyone agrees they're very good.

    Overrated: Freddy. Sure he has map mobility and he is not a bad Killer. But over all he is not that big of a deal anymore and people who still complain about him give him way to much credit.

    Underrated: Nemesis. I think he is not as bad as people make him. Give the players time to learn him and adjust to him. I think he will do better than we expect.

    Even: Blight. With the right field of vision blight is now in a very good spot and I do not think there are many people who still think he is weak.

    Underrated: Ghostface.

    Maybe I just don't pay attention enough but I always seem to get destroyed by Ghostface and I struggle to break him out of stealth.


    Overrated: Ghostface.

    I always lose as Ghostface, people break me out of steath constantly and he lacks map pressure.

    I say one of the most overrated Killers in DBD is Oni. He is threatening, yeah. But he really needs a good start to be able to snowball effectively. Without it he is an M1 Killer without any power who needs to rely on harming survivors to get it. And if he can't... Well, tough #########.

    Underrated I'd have to say would be Trickster. I know his power is dogshit, but it's not as bad as people make it out to be. In the right map and with the right add-ons, he can absolutely demolish a group of survivors who are unprepared or underestimate him and his potential.

    He is still a ranged Killer after all. And he throws his knives almost as fast as a charged Huntress attack. And that's without any cooldown attached to it. Even on maps like The Game, it can be a death trap if he sends you there and he has ricochet add-ons.

    A Killer that is fine imo might be Blight. I know people put him in S tier and thinks he is broken or the next Spirit. But he is really limited to maps being able to use his power properly. Yeah he can make use of slippery surfaces, but how many Blights do you think actually does those techs? Not a lot. Most of them are probably just infuriated they can't bump into a tree in Red Forest or a rock in Ormond.

    So no, I don't think he is overpowered. But I don't think he is underpowered either. He is fine where he is. And he still has a decent skill ceiling to reach as a Killer.
