    Honestly I don’t know an argument for any other killer. Some people will say Spirit but definitely not anymore after the nerf announcement.

    In terms of just best killer in the game, yeah Nurse for sure. She is the best by far. In terms of unique design and creativity (especially to the license) Pinhead is the best to me. I do hope he gets the voiceline back, he is such a good creation for the character of the Hell Priest, and his power has enough depth and fun behind it, I geniunely think he is one of the best designs in terms of m1 killers.

    Gameplay wise - to sum up: this question is only interesting if you aren't familiar enough with the game to know the answer almost immediately.

    Although you could argue possibly spirit since she arguably takes less time to learn and gets similar results to Nurse, but I always thought of this question in regards to the highest levels of play, in which case the answer is more identifiably nurse.

    Also Spirit is finally going to be seeing some nerfs soon, but only time will tell how significant they are in creating some real tangible counterplay.

    Best killer at what?

    Strength?

    How cool they are?

    Nurse has never not been the best.

    Spirit

    I would say spirit because she has counterplay now and she's worth to play as.

    Nurse is the best, I don't play as her though. I am quite new and currently play as The Legion or Ghostface.
