What killers haven't you seen in a long time?

How dare you forget about Demogorgon

Probably Demo or Blight.

Rarely played against Slinger before nerf and now I never see him. I face off against Stealth a lot. Ghosty/Mike/Pig is see few times a week. Blight is common as well Nurse.

As always, everyone forgets Demogorgon. While I'm not as good on him (her? it?) as I am on Hag, Cenobite (RIP), Myers or Plague he is easily the most fun killer to play as, with excellent addons (barring a few), a massive skillcap, a fascinating kit and some neat tricks to learn.

I've literally never faced one in maybe 50 hours of survivor gameplay. Ditto Hillbilly, Trapper and Deathslinger.

I've faced 1 Cenobite (prenerf), 2 Twins (lul), 1 Ghostface, 1 Hag, 2 Pyramid Heads, a few Myers and a few Pigs though.

At what I'm going to guess is an intermediate-ish survivor MMR (I escape a fair bit more than I die), I see a lot of Blight, Nemesis, Bubba, Huntress, Nurse, Spirit and a few Artists (just after her release, nothing since then).

Because almost nobody plays him. Even with his removal, I have no idea why. He's bloody excellent fun and while he isn't the strongest, he's certainly not weak. I just pray never to get RPD - for some reason about 3/4 of the map surfaces won't let me put a portal down.

He wasn't all that strong, and then they nerfed most of his good addons to the ground. He'll likely have to get reworked down the line. I still play him from time to time - he's viable with Fang+Pain addons or dual iris, and he's still a newbie stomper supreme. Otherwise, he really struggles - his chains are super easy to juke and without the threat of his old hunt addons, the box is barely a distraction.

I think all the Pigs are hanging around my intermediate MMR. They always run Letter+Straps or Video+Ruleset and I see why. She's as addon dependent as pre-rework Wraith.

Yeah.

Twins...ugh. Just clunky and annoying.

Billy - I have no idea why they nerfed the hell out of him. He had one troublesome addon combination which was an easy fix.

Wraith - RIP. Dash nerf, addon nerf and his entire attrition style negated by COH. Totally necessary.

Freddy - Never liked him before, don't like him now. See him occasionally, but tends to lose badly. Another case of 'to the ground!' nerfs where a few tweaks would have sufficed. Worst addons in the game. Needs another serious rework.

Slinger - All he needed was maybe a longer reload time on misses. He is now as clunky as pre-rework Plague. Awful design decision.

Sadly, I've seen maybe 2 Bubbas not facecamping, and both of them got wrecked.

I don't see many Nurses these days, it's about 30% Blight, 15% Nemesis, 10% Huntress, 10% Nurse, 10% Spirit and the rest is a mixture. It'll probably get even less diverse as my MMR rises.

Demo is one of the better Killers on RPD imo. Most of the hallways aren't wide enough to dodge a Shred, and 0 Survivors know that Demogorgon can Shred up and down the stairs of the lobby so those are almost always free hits. His Portals are meh on that map tho

Hag and Twins are both ultra rare for me.

Eh.

Here's what RPD looks like for me against a decent SWF.

• I spawn in the middle.
• I can go to the West or East wings. There's no way to tell which is right.
• If I pick the wrong one, I will lose 2 gens in the other wing before I get there - without even seeing a survivor.
• About 2/3 of the rooms in both wings cannot have portals placed in them or near them, because the passages are too narrow.
• If I find a survivor, I can probably get 1 shred in on them unless they are near a safe area. Once I've done that, they head to the office, the main hall or one of the rooms with at least 1 safe pallet and 1 safe vault and they can run me there for maybe 45 seconds or they make a mistake. Even after they fixed the infinite, some of the loops are so safe that you can CoH heal in between looping. It's also a map where it's super easy to chain multiple safe pallets and vaults into each other.
• They'll probably have a boon in the library or 'manager office', which will cover half the map and snuffing it is a huge time investment even if I know where it is.
• The only way to handle it is to stake out a 3 or 4 gen super early and never leave it.

Hag is...difficult. Making her a 115% killer would be a nice QOL increase, but she's already a solid 'A' tier. What she really needs is a bit of an addon pass - even her good addons are boring.

Twins needs a complete teardown.

Cenobite needs more power to his chains. They shouldn't be able to break on the environment or his model. He also needs some of his nerfed addons buffed a bit - a few seconds off the solving time ones and the hunt ones would have sufficed. Now they are Freddy level pointless.

Oni is...honestly fine. He has a high skillcap but can be very strong. What hurts him (and most m1 type killers) is some of the ridiculous maps.

I saw a lot of Trickster during the archive, but they've dried up now.

Freddy and twins
