Which killer uses Play with your Food the best?

I really enjoyed old bubba with PWYF and Nemesis. But its a waste on the new one imo, even with his iridescent addon its weaker then old bubba.

I used the combo on scratched Mirror Myers, but i dont want to play with addons every game and would like similar gameplay to old bubba. (Only one-shotting to preserve stacks)

Addonless Myers with Devour Hope, Undying, Nemesis and PWYF is interesting, but i lose DH very often. I could use Starstruck, MYC or other Exposed-perks, but im not sure.

Whats your experience?

    Stealth killers are the best for it. Ghostface and Myers can stalk the obsession while farming stacks at the same time and instadown other survivors to keep them. Wraith can cloak and immediately end chase (although he doesn't really need it anymore).

    The absolute best one is Tombstone Myers as once you get it going, tombstoning someone doesn't eat your stacks.

    Other then that, all instadowning killers can benefit from it decently. Even one stack for bonus 5% can be huge if you make it count.

    The best way to use PWYF is on m1 killers don’t use it on M2 killers. Only run this perk on m1 killers like

    Run: Trapper, Wraith, Nurse, Hag, Myers, Pig, Freddy, Spirit, Ghostface, Oni, Blight

    Dont run: Hillbilly, Huntress, Doctor?, Leatherface, Clown, Legion, Plague, Demogorgon, Deathslinger, Pyramid head, Twins, Trickster, Nemesis

    Plague actually works great with it. Green puke doesn't use up stacks, so you can get ppl sick... then 1 shot with the M1.

    Double Iri-Add-On Myers

    I thought it did I heard that when plague uses vile purge it takes a token away

    Are you sure? It was like that when Plague released, but i heard they changed that. When was the last time you tested it?

    Is Ghostface really good with it? Shouldnt you stalk outside of chase, but you need to chase for PWYF? Would you use a Exposed-perk for more instadowns (and if which?) or is it only playable with recovery addons?

    But for example Billy wants to use his chainsaw for map traversal. Isnt PWYF and preserving stacks in this case more a hindrance than a benefit?

    On which killer would it be really viable in your opinion?

    I'm pretty sure just double iri Myers and Bubba with PWYF+Nemesis are the only 2 who use PWYF effectively.

    I wouldn't say it's really ever a viable choice since that perk is very inconsistent mainly used for fun or silly builds even when the effect is very strong. I'd say it goes best with either bubba or michael. Others can get value out of it too but they'll be less consistent with it.

    I personally like the perk just for the sole reason that it's fun in meme builds and that it enables full tombstone build to be actually pretty good. That's more then I can say for so many other killer perks.

    The Wraith is the best at earning PWYF stacks, each time he cloaks, it auto ends the chase, thus earning you a token. It's faster than other killers who need to look away, plus you're faster while invisible as Wraith.

    You can start a chase with your obsession and stalk him/her at the same time, you just need to be a bit more offensive on how you do it. As a GF I believe his stalk is the more consistent way of getting instadowns and he's definitely playable without the recovery addons if you're good with his power (although they do make a HUGE difference). Although he has quite a good synergy with Devour Hope, Make Your Choice and Haunted Grounds.

    It specifies basic attacks or special attacks that can damage survivors. Vile purge does not damage survivors, it simply works to apply a status effect that lowers the maximum health states. If you check out the wiki page for PWYF, it actually lists out every action for every killer and which ones do and do not use up tokens.

    This list has been updated with the latest killer, so gonna assume its pretty up to date on things. Sidenote, The twins might be a pretty good one for it since swapping back and forth from Charlotte and Victor ends the chase, and also Victor's hits do not use up your tokens. Could allow ya to injure with Victor, then get a sped up hit with Charlotte. Just a thought.

    Theres a note for this list saying it was last tested July 11th, so unless theyve changed it since then... think we're good

    Bubba used to be the best user of it. Now I'd probably say Wraith and Plague. Twins used to be the best when Victor didn't take away stacks.
