Killers You Actively *Enjoy* Facing?
Have been playing a fair bit more survivor recently. While I think there would at least be a loose consensus on the killers people dread seeing, which ones make you happy to see?
For me:
Demo. Rare, tend to be pretty mannered. Plus, every Demo feels different - from the 'battle demo' types to the ones that ping pong all over the map. Strong enough to be interesting, but not overwhelming.
Cenobite. Was a little bit more common for a while after the voice release, but somewhat rare again now. Really different to face. As long as people aren't pooping the sheets while carrying the box, he's rather fun.
Artist. Basically ditto Cenobite. Fun back and forth.
Ghostface. Memelord supremes. Seldom a dull killer to face, loses a few points because a lot of them like to camp.

I have a list of killers pulled up to make sure I don't miss one.
Wraith- fun, interactive chases, wish I saw him more but COH neutered that, would like him to regain his Super Lunge. Usually helps that I have a flashlight 9/10 games.
Billy- It's Billy.
Bubba- Ah, my FAVOURITE map bro
Demo- Is dog, good boy
Pyramid Head- Most Pyramid Head players are not good, and as such will play in a very obvious and telegraphed way that I had to bully out of myself within the first 50 matches less I never unlearn- zoning, and never actually using your power until you see an animation lock. Do you know how much distance you can gain just by holding W, knowing the killer won't ever shoot? I've lost count of the amount of people I've hit at this point just using my power straight forward because people do not expect it. I can read you like a book and I will force you into using your ability outside of animation locks to win the game if it's the last thing I do (which it normally is, as I'm then hardcore tunneled).
Sadako- She gives me 2017/2018 DBD vibes and that gives me happy thoughts.

On a mechanical level, sure. Ditto Hag. But unfortunately, all the Spirits and Hags (well, Hag) I've run into recently have been mean.
If I didn't see so many of them, and they weren't so one-note, sure.
I've had a bad run of facecamping Insidious PHs recently. He's actually disgustingly effective with the double hits.
I don't mind Blight, just see a lot of them.

At the current moment it's the artist her power is intense but I can understand why people don't like playing against her

Billy is most enjoyable killer to face.
Bubba is so fun if they don't camp.
Nemesis is enjoyable.
0 -
Sadako, Legion, Freddys, myers and GF. They're some of the most loopable killers in the game..
1 -
- Hillbilly : so unpredictable if the player has mastered him, the games are fun as hell
- Huntress / Nemesis / Pyramid Head: I love the mindgames at pallets, drop or don't drop, fake the drop !
- Myers (Tier 1 only add-on) : That's so unique on Lerry's, it's a very enjoyable gameplay (unless the times when I had Spine Chill, it breaks the thing a bit)
- Nurse : my favourite killer to verse, hell it's fun and feels rewarding when you run a good Nurse for so damn long
- Legion : just because I always make them lose their power thanks to a 99'd sprint burst, it is so satisfying
6 -
Spirit, Nurse, and to a very much lower extent, Twins. Nemesis sometimes. Slinger can be spooky. Legion can be good loop practice.
Can't say I really enjoy my Demo matches despite all the memes about him being a precious demo doggo.
Despite enjoying Spirit and Nurse, I surprisingly hate Blight.
0 -
Pyramid Head
Pinhead
0 -
Nurse and Blight by a massive margin.
1 -
Billy (Curve Billy's a bit meh though)
Bubba (If they don't camp)
Pig (Exclusing box campers / a certain EU "wOrLd ReCoRd PiG mAiN"
Oni
Sadako (I love the tape mechanic, always try to go out of my way to use the mechanic if I can)
0 -
Artist, Billy, Pig, Wraith. Those are the main ones I like going against.
0 -
Any killer that is strong enough to be able to annihilate a team but also has reasonable counter play where it feels like both the survivors and the killer have a realistic chance of winning (most notably an Oni and a great-but-not-competitive-player Nurse, they are my favorites)
0 -
Nurse, Billy, Blight, Oni, and Spirit are my favorites.
Not a huge fan of "I hold M2 and you die either way" killers.
0 -
Nurse for sure. Spirit too, to a degree. I preferred facing Spirit before her nerf last year.
2 -
I enjoy going up against most killers when I'm not burnt out, although I mostly enjoy the licensed killers for obvious reasons.
0 -
Myers... no one plays him anymore though...
1 -
Really? I see him tons. More than Wraiths even. Almost always inf T3 or TSP - but the occasional spoopy Myers is always a complete blast.
1 -
I enjoy any killer that doesnt camp and tunnel at 5 gens. I'm a simple folk...
2 -
At least, not in my server... I basically play against... Blight, Nurse, Pyramid Head and Nemesis almost every game. Rares are Trapper, Huntress and Sadako because she's new, but in the last two days I've faced no Sadakos.
0 -
And when i do they they just walk out of it 🙄
0 -
I like going against Trickster and demo.
0 -
Mikey is my all time fav.
I also enjoy facing some Oni, Billy, Demo, and Clown.
3 -
But they always camp so he’s down In f tier Lmao
0 -
Demo and pyramid head are my favorites
0 -
Maybe an MMR thing? I'd guess that I'm pretty low, possibly low-intermediate on survivor. I see the Big Three plenty, but also a fairly decent variety of other killers.
I've only very recently started trying to seriously learn survivor - previously it was a matter of 'oh, I want to see this cosmetic I got from the Rift' or 'oh come on, this daily again?'.
1 -
Billy, not biased at all.
0 -
Demo and Pyramid Head for me! Always a joy.
0 -
That's not far off what I'm seeing in terms of common - except for PH (I don't see him much). For me, the common ones are Blight, Huntress, Nurse, Bubba, Nemesis in that order.
I see a good few Myers, Wraiths, Artists, Legions and Slingers.
1 -
As long as it's not a basement Bubba, I love getting chased by Cannibal. Pig, Legion and Huntress can also be fun.
0 -
Billy, Oni

Demogorgon

Everyone that is not Blight or Wraith.

If you showed at an asylum I think you'd get admitted on the spot.
8 -
Pinhead and Bubba are my top favorites
0 -
Legion is probably my favourite. As a point ######### they just make me happy.
0 -
Tbh all but trapper, if I could verse a range of killers or a different killer each match I'd actually have so much fun and enjoy it alot!
Sadly I mostly see nurse and blight which get repetitive... I just dislike trapper lol
0 -
Hillbilly, Nurse, and Twins.
0 -
I love going against Nurse. I can't loop for poop, so Nurse is much easier for me because she doesn't do the traditional looping but rather LOS mind-games which I'm perfectly happy with (plus she's my main so I know her limits).
I hate going against Huntress though. Just cannot do anything vs a good one.
0 -
A non-camping Bubba is usually a good time.
0 -
Every killer that's not nurse/blight, i just want some variety and i can't remember the last time i faced a different killer from these two.
Not that i play much a day but still, here's my experience, open DBD, insane queue time, get into a game after 5m, i hear a blink, roll eyes, my team suicide at hook and back to queue to get another one of those.
So i end up playing something else
I'd be happy even to face a bubba, look how desperate i am
0 -
Billy, Freddy, Myers.
Edit: Forgot Deathslinger.
1 -
Billy
1 -
Love facing Deathslingers, Demogorgons, Nemesis
0 -
Pyramidhead can be tough for me,but i absolutely dig his sounds (breathing,and cage sounds are kreygasm)
But my fav is Bubba,the basic music + his pig moans while reeling or being stunned is what make me play survivor
0 -
Nurse 100%, doesn't matter if it's a player learning her or a god nurse that will obliterate us it's an absolute blast either way and the only killer that makes me super excited to go against.
Honorable mentions for Billy, Demo & Oni, I also enjoy going against Twins (shocker I know)
Also Trapper, Deathslinger, Plague & PH, but that's probably because I don't encounter them often
0 -
Hillbilly, Bubba, Myers, Piggy, Oni, Demo, Artist, Deathslinger, Spirit are the most fun killers to go against.
Therefore I hate Trapster, Trickster, Huntress and Hag.
