    Huntress, Billy and demo are the most fun killers to p,any against imo. They are all pretty strong while still leaving room for counterplay. They can also all snowball well if survivors misplay

    Huntress <3 you never know if it’s a machine gun huntress or a sniper who can take you out from the other end of the map

    Plague because everything she does is strong but also counterable.

    Dredge for being actually scary.

    Nemesis because the zombies are memes.

    Demo for being the most balanced

    Twins because getting chased by Victor is funny and not because you get to play kick the baby because victor is not a baby he's like 40 or something yeah let's go with that.

    But yeah that's my top 5 most likely, shockingly it's all killers I like to play as well.

    Nemesis, Demogorgon, and Blight are my favorites because chase feels super interactive against them and you often get the chance to make good plays.

    Billy, though i also play him. hes a scary killer when good but also has a huge risk/reward to his power as opposed to a lot of other stuff. plus the high speed and one shot means hes always a threat to a player

    Whichever killer that has any bit of personality. So usually Ghostface, Executioner, and some Bubba's.

    I don’t play survivor but my favorite killers to play as at the moment are probably Sadako and Dredge because of their combination of teleportation and stealth. Dredge gets to teleport more reliably, Sadako’s stealth is a little more universally available and she’s shorter which helps with blocking line of sight, but they’re both a lot of fun to play and really thematic killers. In terms of effectiveness I think Dredge is about 4/5, he’s really good, and Sadako is about 2/5, she’s ok but I wouldn’t turn down her getting slightly buffed when they eventually get around to her balance pass. (Get rid of her lullaby, for instance, I’m not sure why she’s the only Undetectable killer with a lullaby.)

    Also Dredge is one of the only killers I’ve had survivors actually say after a match in chat that they thought was really cool. I had a game just this week where one of the survivors was mentioning how they got seriously jump scared a couple of times by him. 🙂

    Trickster <3 I love listening to his giggles while he chases me

    Spirit always gives me joy whether I’m playing as her, against her, or just spending quality time with her in general 🥰

  • Marigoria

    Billy, Bubba (yes, even facecamping ones), Freddy

  • EvilSerje

    Hutress probably.

    It's easier to say which killer I totally hate to go against.

    Myers as he gives me legit jump scares and is such a simple killer. He can also be legit dangerous if you take him too lightly with certain addins - gives him just the right amount of edge to keep me on my toes.

    I like going against fellow Docs too. More because I understand him more deeply than any other characters, so I have a good feel of how to play around him. It's also a possible opportunity to learn new tricks or builds from the player.

    I love facing scratched mirror Myers (or Plaything infinite T3 Myers) because the game is actually spooky, something DBD sorely lacks in its default state.

    Demos are always fun, and Billies and Deathslingers are rare sights that I love to tangle with.

    Nurse. I really love running against nurse.

  • Marc_go_solo

    Myers, because for me he has the biggest scare-factor, and the threat of the insta-kill is always an adrenaline booster.

    Other mentions: Demo, Executioner, Nemesis and Billy.

    I like when ghostfaces do their funny little teabag.

    Dredge

    because that chase music is a bop

    #1 Demogorgon

    Followed by Billy, Doctor, Huntress, and Trapper.

    Depends, on mid mmr yes, but any good survivor player worth their salt will loop a billy for as long as that billy commits to the chase, as even countering curving is pretty easy.

    If Bubba isn't facecamping, he is probably one of the most exciting killers to be going up against.

    I also never mind a Pig. I wanted to say Wraiths as well, but considering just how insanely often they run NOED, I'll take it back.

    Going against Nurse/Blight is most fun, but I like all of them except Hag cause of her jumpscare traps.

  • Wampirita

    I unironically love testing my mindgames vs Nurse and Blight.

    I don't like the same chase over and over, Shift+W gaming. Nothing feels better than outsmarting the good killer into making a horrible mistake.


    I love forcing Legions out of their power to hear that AAAGH.

    I love forcing a tantrum on Bubba and dance with his saw.

    Making a Trickster lose his entire arsenal of knives without securing a healthstate is a great achievement for me.

    I'm TERRIFIED of Deathslingers, but I can't help the excitement when I face one.

    When I spawn into the match and I hear Pinhead's cube, he better be sure I'm gonna take all of his time.

    Hilbillys are an absolute rays of sunshine. I'd pay money to face them more.


    Most of the m1 killers don't have much to offer in a chase. Killers that are committed to scoring a down with their powers are the true fun of this game.

    Overall, i love most of the killers. As long as they're trying, it's fun

    Love playing against stealthy killers and nurse.

    (forgot why)

    Stealthy killers is always fun, I like getting spooks.

    Nurse feels completely defferent to go against, sometimes in more fun way.

    Freddy, Myers, Pig, Wraith...

    Pretty much anyone who was there when I started playing, except Legion.

    Mikey in any form. He's so fun.

    I enjoy Billy and Demo a lot too.

    Blight.

    When they're not wannabe comp players and are actually good.
