What killers do you enjoy facing?

Since the forums are always awash with complaints, let’s discuss something we like!

My favorite killers to face are Nurse, Doctor, Demopuppy and Pyramid Head.

I know Nurse is considered over powered, but it is so much fun trying to be as unpredictable as possible and juke her teleports.

Doctor and Demopupoy aren’t anywhere near top tier but in the right hands they can be oppressive but still fun. I’ve had some Demos scare the poop out of me with their teleporting. I also love them when they nod their head.

Pyramid head is just overall cool. I love his music, in chase or out. I think his power is cool and he’s just unique to look at. He’s strong, but not overly so, and the built in mori is nice in that it makes you play a little more carefully when you’re on death hook.

    Twins, Billy, Bubba and Plague are my favourites to go against

    I kinda enjoy facing clown too since I’m a clown main and seeing how they play compared to me

    Billies that are good with their power. But they did him dirty so they are rare now. :(

    Ghostface, twins, hillbilly and nurse r fun to face in my opinion.

    I actually like going against Bubba too! He has decent counters but is still really threatening. Chest defender Bubba is a nice breath of fresh air from the constant sweat matches. Even having the honor of being camped by him is sometimes fun since I can gaze upon his beauty and look deeply into his glorious eyes.

    I have no problems with most killers unless they go out of their way to bm me or the other survivors.

    Edit: my favorite is huntress though

    Nurse. There's nothing quite like hearing that scream and realize you're about to meet your match (or your maker). It saddens me that many people want her nerfed instead of embracing the different gameplay and learning how to counter her.

    Billy and Bubba, Nurse, PHs that don't fake their power (rare sight sadly), Blights if when i tap the gen at the beginning of the match i don't see it regressing immediately

    Billy, Huntress, Demogorgon, Blight, and Pyramid Head :)

    As an Urban Evading Bushette, I too love facing Hag. I giggle with glee when I happen upon her lit totems and unhook faster than she would expect. She’s only a nightmare to face when your team sucks or she outright camps.

    I appreciate Pyramid Head, Oni and Blight. they are fun to go against and i like how the players actually gained a skill over time with them.

    Sometimes i like Demo.

    Same. If survivors had their way, every killer would be M1 only that can easily be looped.

    I always enjoy going up against a skilled killer ^^ I enjoy a challenge and the game gets so much spookier when you go up against a good opponent.

    I guess my all time favs are:

    Nurse

    Hilbilly

    Michael

    Spirit

    Oni

    Pig (especially when I get to boop snoot)

    Hag

  • A_Skinny_Legend

    Spirit, hag, nurse, freddy, blight, doctor, Fiona, and face camping bubbas. They're my fav.

  • Dwight_Fairfield
    Dwight_Fairfield Member Posts: 7,093

    Definitely Mikey is my favorite.

    WishIcouldmain Member Posts: 4,082

    All the killers often critiqued of having an oppressive 1v1 I enjoy actually. Like Nemesis and PH. Only Slinger I might complain a little. Also Clown and Doctor. But, Myers can go away like everyone one of them runs Tuft of Hair & Memorial.

  • GeneralV
    GeneralV Member Posts: 11,687

    Freddy, Myers, Pig and Hillbilly and definitely my favorite killers to go against.

    Billy, Bubba, Plague, Demo, Huntress.

    Unpopular opinion: Spirit (I'm a Spirit main so I really like to go against another Spirit comrade). Also, Blight, Hag and Demo

  • Vyne456
    Vyne456 Member Posts: 848

    I would say Spirit, Ghostface, Bubba, and Demogrogon. Especially Stridor Spirit :D

  • Evilhorst
    Evilhorst Member Posts: 103

    I honestly like facing every killer except Doctor.

    But i especially like Spirit, Blight, Nurse and Oni. They are the most challeging in chases and they make for the most diverse gameplay.

    Hag i only like in SWF. She really is a pain to face in solo.

  • Jasix
    Jasix Member Posts: 1,245

    Nurse, Bubba, Billy, Doctor, Demogorgon, Huntress, Mikey.

  • WexlerWendigo

  • Mazoobi

    Twins and Huntress

  • Altarf

    PH, Twins, Oni, Bubba, Slinger. Although I enjoy going against pretty much every killer except Huntress and Stridor Spirit.

    gibblywibblywoo Member Posts: 3,772

    A good Oni and Blight are still pretty scary to face. Billy too but you don't see him so much anymore.

    Pig and Micheal are fun, though they're usually pretty easy to beat nowadays. GF would be cool if his detection wasn't so god damned unreliable.

    I find all the trapper killers/Projectile killer are pretty lame.

    Honestly? Everyone besides Wraith, Spirit, Nurse, and Hag.
