    I have all killers but most times i am playing with Nemesis. I am playing with others too. But which killer i never wanna play?


    It is Trickster. He is so weak but his power is annoying. He looks very good but i hate him so much because of his design. Boring power! Second is Twins, BHVR just nerfed them so much. I don't think they are viable anymore.

    Demogorgon, Deathslinger, Trickster and Nemesis.

    The characters which I happen to have never play. I just don't find any of them interesting.

    I mainly play Bubba, Nemesis, Legion, Wraith, Oni. Everything else is just boring

    Legion, Trickster, Ghostface, Deathslinger. I just don't have any desire.

    Nurse is the only killer I actively never play, I absolutely hate that mechanic of staring at her feet half the match. I even keep the Nurse daily mission in my log just so I never get it. Other killers have stuns when they use their power, but they can generally either keep their head up while stunned so they can still see or the stun is shorter or they don’t use their power as often as Nurse. For example, Legion and Blight both get stunned after using their ability but it’s a lot more tolerable on them.

    If someday they tweak Nurse’s stun so that she kept her head up and could see what was going on I’d play her, even if they compensated by making the blink refresh timer slightly longer to compensate. Otherwise screw it, I’m never playing her.

    I don´t play "op" killers. So i stay away from Nurse and Twins for obvious reasons.

    Nurse. I find her mechanics frustrating and her playstyle a lot less interesting.

    I also have been neglecting Spirit because my hearing is absolutely awful lol

    Blight. I find him super unenjoyable to play, and I really can't be bothered going through months of hating him just to learn how to abuse techs exploits to get to a point where he just breaks every tile.

    Also why is his daily 4 downs instead of 4 hits with his power?

    If they aren't Wraith, Bubba, Doctor, Nurse, Freddy, Legion, Spirit, Demo, or Pyramid Head, I don't want to play them. Varying reasons all culminating in "They are not fun for me".

    I own all killers but only play like 5. Same for survivors

    Hag: Don't enjoy the playstyle all that much.

    Ghostface: Weak and wonky.

    I play every other killer every so often including the Twins, I actually like them.

  • DBD78
    DBD78 Member Posts: 3,469

    I have all killers, I don't play any of them. But when I still did play killer Deathslinger was the one I did not enjoy at all. Just boring to play I guess.

  • El_Gingero
    El_Gingero Member Posts: 1,147

    Trickster because I don’t like him, but also because he’s unplayable with a controller.

    I own entire roster and dont want to use any killer.....jokes aside since I on console Trickster is #1 which sucks cuz I actually like him but survivors thinking their gods cuz knives are terrible on console drive me nuts.

    Hag - upsets me when people say you teleport and hit guaranteed (because you are facing the survivor) but when i teleport i have to look in all directions to find the survivor (everytime) unclear as to why.

    Billy - Just not a fan of his chainsaw outside of mobility. The time you waste at loops with it i could of basic atk twice by now. Add ons are boring asf as well.

    Plague - Really really like her but no reason to cleanse is stupid to me, spitting on survivors hearing scream but no sickness/damage is stupid to me, her height is a disadvantage survivors use it against her also stupid to me, shes like a lighthouse walking across the map which is stupid to me.

    PH - I have always found him boring asf. His shot is so telegraphed and slow a baby survivor can dodge, trails are a joke which can be crouched over, cages are a joke they always spawn next to a survivor so no travel time and have no synergy with anything.

    Legion - They are so ASS. So much to scratch my head about but i will just leave it as ass. You would think since half the cosmetics they create are for Legion they would make the character worth buying and using.

    I have every Killer, but I only play Demogorgon, Oni and Artist on occasions. The Killer that I'm straight up avoiding to play however, is Freddy. There's no point in playing him when everything he does is an inferior version of Demogorgon

  • Bennett_They1Them
    Bennett_They1Them Member Posts: 2,513

    Twins? Excuse me? If you're finding twins boring, you must be exclusively camping.

  • Zachcjjj
    Zachcjjj Member Posts: 531

    at this point the only redeeming quality of twins is that you can bm people as a 2ft tall gremlin they are boring because they feel bad to play and their strongest playstyle is also boring

  • AnneBonny
    AnneBonny Member, Alpha Surveyor Posts: 2,252

    legion

    why bother at this point, the only time they have any chance of winning is running a specific, boring build that gets crippled if they cleanse a hex

    Spirit

  • GoshJosh
    GoshJosh Member Posts: 4,992

    If I had to narrow it down to one, Hillbilly. Because he feels mechanically awful compared to the past, plus his mostly terrible add-ons.

    If we’re talking about purchased killers, Freddy. Also really bad add-ons and boring gameplay.

  • Chaos999
    Chaos999 Member Posts: 869

    Nemesis and huntress. Because I play with a controller T. T

  • Smoe
    Smoe Member Posts: 2,964

    I only play as characters that are at P3 LVL 50 with all perks unlocked.

    So currently, i don't play as Freddy, Pig, Ghost Face, Demogorgon, Pyramid Head, Blight, Twins, Trickster, Nemesis and Artist.

  • Sonzaishinai
    Sonzaishinai Member Posts: 7,976

    Twins and freddy

    Twins cause i just really don't like playing and Freddy cause of his rework

  • Bennett_They1Them
    Bennett_They1Them Member Posts: 2,513

    O.K, in need of QoL? yes.

    Boring because you're "forced to slug"? agree to disagree on that one.

    Personally, I never slug or camp with twins (even if that is the strategy their current clunky mess encourages.)


    Sorry if my previous message came across as caustic, btw.

  • Bennett_They1Them
    Bennett_They1Them Member Posts: 2,513

    That I can agree with, for sure.

    Sometimes it feels like I'm shooting myself in the foot by refusing to play in a scummy fashion.

    Trapper and huntress. One is boring and the other cause my aim sucks

    Oni on console. I only played 1 game and switched to a different killer. I don't want to waste my time playing against real survivors. it would be cool to play against bots to get better. I also bought deathslinger, and plague, and have played many games, but just 1 game with Oni.

  • Nameless
    Nameless Member Posts: 869

    Pig...

    Her dash is useless for the majority of the loops, she's not even great at being stealthy because she's so slow, her beartraps are really RNG dependant and her addons suck.

    On top of all that, I hate going against Pigs because they usually tunnel off hook and recently we've got these extremely skilled AFK Pigs sitting on top of Jigsaw boxes.

    She's a pain to play as and go against.

    Oni


    on console he’s pretty hard to use smoothly

    ThiccBudhha Member Posts: 6,987

    Artist, I just played her for the achievement. I hate her power, though. All of those cringe survivors that think they are tilting me with their antics have no idea that the only thing that genuinely upsets me in this game is trying to understand why the Artist's power is so ludicrously undertuned at anything that is not map control. And they have the audacity to make you get downs with it. Disgusting.

    Trickster. Only bought him for his perks. Never played him outside of a few matches where I was farming his tome challenges. He is borderline unplayable on console.

  • pizzaduffyhp90
    pizzaduffyhp90 Member Posts: 901

    Deathslinger I don't enjoy the slow aim in he has now I miss quickscoping and getting so many great shots.

  • DemonDaddy

    Trickster

    Slow, large constant audio que, recoil on console sucks

  • CyberDragoon656
    CyberDragoon656 Member Posts: 960

    Most cause most have been either nerfed before I could really try them ot most just aren't worth the investment anymore.

  • Aurelle

    Trickster, Freddy, Legion, Twins. I don't find them fun to play at all.

  • Advorsus
    Advorsus Member Posts: 1,033

    Trickster. I'm not a fan of kpop and everything about him is just boring. I refuse to play him.

    Crow lady, her croaking is annoying and she just doesn't really interest me. I was originally hyped for her cause I thought she'd have more interaction with the actual crows on the map. But instead we got giant ghost crow heads for some reason? It was just a huge let down that feels uninspired.

    And because I play on console I don't play a lot of precision killers like nurse, huntress, deathslinger, or spirit. Mainly because they face issues on console that they don't on PC. So a lot of the time you feel like just another m1 killer but much slower. Although I have started playing them more recently.

    drsoontm Member Posts: 4,903

    I got all killers but the Cenobite:

    Except for "memes" I don't like using Trapper.

    Wraith is relatively weak.

    Billy's cooldown sucks.

    Myers isn't too good.

    Freddy I don't like.

    Clown isn't very enjoyable.

    Spirit's fun is dead now that you can't surprise survivors phasing on them. (I made one DC today)

    Legion is weak.

    Plague is weak.

    I don't want to hear about Ghostface until the strech-res cheaters are out.

    Deathslinger feels clunky

    Twins I don't like.

    Nemesis isn't very enjoyable.

    Artist the jury is still out but I'm not liking it so far.

    Pyramid head because i hate how on pc he has his turn rate on the YAW system so i cant really affectively flick.

    Billy/ Huntress

    Neither are interesting to me. I love facing players who are good with them but I don't have it in me to play as em

    I hate Blight with a burning passion.

  • danielmaster87

    Some characters I'm just not in the mood to play sometimes, like Huntress, Plague, Hag, Legion. Occasionally I'll enjoy playing them for several matches in a row, but most of the time I'm too stubborn to change to them for fear of not doing well with them or not enjoying them.

    Trapper I can play but I got burnt out of him long ago, because I played him non-stop getting him to Prestige III WHILE trying to use all his add-ons up in between each Prestige, and that has kind of impacted my attachment to him ever since.

    Trickster and Nurse I'm basically never in the mood to play. They're too hard to play on console. I don't want to argue how they're not. I also hate their power designs.

    Twins, Deathslinger, Wraith, and Clown I don't want to play because they got nerfed. No motivation to play worse versions of killers that I previously enjoyed playing, and was rewarded for playing well with them. No more.

    And in general, killers that are too weak to win with, which is most of them, I don't like to play for too long.
