In my opinion, Artist is the second most fun killer to play as
I’ve been maining Artist since I returned to DBD from my 2-month break and I really enjoy her. I used to play her a lot when she came out but then got bored of her after some time. I got back into her and I gotta say I really forgot how fun and rewarding she is. If you haven’t tried her I definitely recommend giving her a shot.

I hate versing Poopy Lady with a passion. Nothing you say will ever convince me to purchase her or even consider playing as that vile thing. I hope all of her data on all of Behaviours equipment as well as players equipment gets corrupted and lost forever.

I love her too I learned a combo that can land you damage hits with crows easier....she's is fun and is ranked in the top 3 lookers lol

What perks do you like on her
0 -
Give her a shot. I promise you won’t disappointed…or maybe you will because I guess not every killer is for everyone and I’m like 1 of 7 people that enjoy Artist.

Aura reading. Lethal Pursuer is probably my favorite on her.
0 -
Her ability has quite a lot of possibility, I haven't really used to it but I can see fair amount of people maining her.
0 -
What is that combo? I’m curious.

She is very enjoyable to play up against mediocre survivors but against competent ones she is an M1 killer. U wont make use of her power in loops because as u set it up the survivor will just swap or another survivor runs throught and disables it. And u wont be able to snipe anyone either because they can see where u place them if u chase somebody or just hop in a locker.
I really like her aswell she is my number 2 killer but she isnt that strong the higher u go

To this day, I am pretty sure I only played against Artist twice.
0 -
You say second?
She is great, one of the best in the game. She has plenty need for skill with her birds which makes her fun. I like her, but not as much as Billy, Huntress, Blight. There are plenty of killers in the game whose power lack skill but Artist is definitely not one of them.

Play Pyramid Head instead, he's like Artist but actually fun ✨

Who’s first?

She may be an m1 killer against good survivors, but she’s an m1 killer who doesn’t have to loop, as long as you place your birds correctly the only option survivors have is to run to the next tile.

Strangely it's a yellow and grey addon.....the yellow was the one that lowers the cool down of the crows and the grey increased the killer instinct duration....the player that I saw use it was when I was playing a survivor....they got downs left and right with crows at range.
What they did was fire off 1 crow....and with the addons allowed them to chain crow hits quickly.
1 -
Well yes that's what i said. She is an m2 killer that when using her power she becomes an m1 because u wont get a lot of value from her m2 if survivors know the counter

Nemesis.

Niiiice.
I missed her chapter drop and when I came back, I also tried and really enjoyed her. I’m not playing her now because the grind but after this update, she will have every perk tier lll and I’m definitely going to pick her up again~
0 -
Artist actually reminds me of nemesis. They both share a very simple counterplay mechanic that both cannot avoid. For artist its holding W and for nemesis is crouching
0 -
The most fun i've had is going for long shots. It's boring setting up your crows in a loop, but going for snipes is just so satisfying, i'm not sure why.

I feel like she is one of those killers where it is incredibly satisfying and fun to play as her, but a god awful and miserable experience to play against.
1 -
I think she can be good against competent survivors too, you just have to be on top of your game a lot. She definitely isn’t easy to get in to.
Nah. But birb.
Second?
This thread is about Artist.
Alright I’ll have to try it out some time.
0 -
I am doing that almost every day :)
They both are anti-loop killers but with different powers. Nemesis has fun power while Artist makes me sleep.
0 -
If your good snipping with her I can see how that build would work
0 -
Bruh, how you leaving us hanging? You put that in the title, of course someone is going to ask for the first.
And Artist can be fun to play against, as long as they aren't doing a certain strat with her.
0 -
Alright so about that…….yeah I definitely agree Artist is fun to play against at times too, as I think it’s a different challenge in dodging her crows from a distance. If I may ask though, what certain strat are you talking about?
0 -
Boring to play against tho
3 -
No, that is not for people on the forums to know, you either know about it or don't.
0 -
I under why people don’t like her but she’s all around fun to me. I’m probably a psychopath for thinking that though, who knows.
0 -
Playing as her, she's my favorite killer easy. She'll be one of the few who, after pain res gets changed, can still probably make use of pain res + DMS because of how her power works.
but playing against artist is kinda boring because the best strategy is hold forward. its disappointing tbh cause as i said she's my favorite killer to play as, but i don't blame survivors for doing what they need to do to survive.
0 -
I do full auras on her :) it's usually lethal/BBQ/floods/I'm all ears which will be even better after the patch. You stream right? I'm always interested to see others play birdbrain
0 -
Yeah I stream. I’m thegannman on Twitch.

If you get too many killers to play Crow lady you will just end up making survivors hate her.
Word of advice, if you find something fun in dbd don't tell anyone about it.
2 -
I'm really bad at her. She's the only killer (other than hag because ew) that I don't have the adept for currently. Glad you enjoy her, though! I haven't gone against her enough to form the seeming hatred everybody has for her.
0 -
I'd rather eat my cats litter.

and better

I really liked playing her when she first came out, but as survivors learned to play against her she pretty soon became really unfun for me to play because the survivors are rewarded for using running away as the main tactic and it's actively encouraged similarly to dredge. It's just always been one of my least favorite things to go against because it doesn't really feel like I'm doing anything other than trying to cut them off or trying to damage them at a distance. She definitely not weak by any means and I have won quite a lot with her, but I just don't really find her fun to play sadly. :c
Though definitely love getting longshots with her lol, its surprising how many people still don't know that lockers remove crows instantly.
1 -
Also who is the first most fun killer to play as im curious now.
0 -
I love playing Artist! Seriously underappreciated killer. I normally dislike ranged killers, but something about her playstyle really clicks with me - guessing where survivors are going to go and chasing them into a trap is fun, as are those endorphin-laden long-distance predicts where you scare someone off a gen and then the second bird connects twenty meters to the right. She's a hybrid of a ranged killer and a trap-type killer where you can set up on the fly but don't have any long-term presence or zone control as a trade-off, and she has a strong information game to go with it.
A lot of people seem to vehemently hate playing against her, but I never really saw the issue beyond how it is with any anti-loop killer. Her ability to monitor exit gates is a bit stupid, but apart from that, shrug.

I've been maining her since she was introduced into the game and she is really fun to play as. She's one of the best killers in the game and you can do a lot with her power once you learn how it works. She also has some of the best cosmetics in the game as well, so that's a plus to everything else.
0 -
I wish I find her fun too. I think her voice is the part of the problem for me.
0 -
I love her, i'de prestige this lady if i didn't have 41 flans on her lol. I feel so good when injuring/downing ppl from afar, as good as when someones steps on a trapper's trap 😂
0 -
I definitely see that reasoning. The holding W isn’t fun for sure. I have learnt ways to play around it but it’s not easy to get the hang of.
0 -
Her voice is cute :c
Yay a fellow Artist main :)

Amen

Playing Artist for anti-loop: 👎️
Playing Artist for sniping people with crows across the map: 👍️
Nothing quite like it
0 -
I do both when it's appropriate. The snipes are by far the most fun part though. Here's a fancy clip for you:

Oh yeah I use it in chase too
But it's not why I play Artist if that makes sense
Predicting a survivors movement and injuring/downing them from far away is just 👌
Also nice clip, well done.
