Which Killers do you love playing as but hate going againts?

I think there is good number of Killers who are fun to play but not that much fun to play againts. Examples for me: Nemesis, Legion, Blight, Trapper.

    Doctor. Doctor is annoying af to face, pretty fun to play.

    But I think the top of the list has to be Legion. Legion is weak, but fun to play as. But Legion is the most miserable killer to face, even though escape is likely. Just a 20 minute mending simulator, and that's if the Legion is good.

    At least with oppressive killers like the Nurse, it's over quickly.

    Clown is just boring to play against but super fun to play

    Also pinhead is super frustrating especially in solo queue but I love playing him

    Honestly none of them. Pretty much every killer I hate going against I also don’t play much if at all. My bottom 3 is Twins, Hag, and Trickster and I don’t play any of them.

    I guess I don’t really like going against Trapper and I do play him sometimes, but I don’t hate going against him I just find him a little boring to face despite not being a strong killer.

    I actually don’t mind going against Legion at all.

    Probably Legion cause most of the teammates i get seem to know nothing about this killer, such has splitting up and NOT mending in the middle of Frenzy.

    Another would be Knight, but thats largely cause i dont have much experience going against him.

    That describes half the roster. I'd say most of the hold w and free zoning killers can be fun to play as, but absolutely awful to go against.

    Nemo. - Love to play as him but hate to go against him. - Idk, I've gotten pretty good at knowing what you can (barely) hit and it's a lot of fun to hit survs over sth that they think you can't hit over. Or get that last dragged-hitbox-frame to hit them. As survivor I find both those things 😅... I also tend to think every Nemo player knows how to do that so I sometimes shoot myself in the foot when trying to avoid Nemo-unsafe-tiles and getting into a bad spot sooner than I otherwise would have .... and then realise at some later point Nemo didn't know he could hit that earlier tile T-T I imagine that's how other killers feel when they are really bothered by dh and play around it all match... just to find out not a single surv had it equipped 😅

    Trapper. But ever since the grass economy is in shambles I haven't played him as often as I use too, but still plenty fun.


    I am that Leon in your lobbies that steps in obvious window and basement traps and doesn't learn. Also I keep forgor to look at the ground haaa

    Doctor and Legion are the main ones, but seen them mentioned a few times already. I absolutely love playing Nemesis but am neutral on playing against him.

    If there's a killer that's the opposite, that has to be Hillbilly. I dislike playing as him because I'm terrible at using the chainsaw, but he has to be my favorite killer to go against. You can tell at any distance whether or not the hillbilly is chasing someone, every rev when the billy is far away has a tension of "Is this the time a survivor gets downed?", and as long as the billy is committed to using the chainsaw in chase against you, trying to juke it is really fun.

    Clown would probably have to be my top pick for this.

    I despise playing against him, but he’s decently fun to play as.

    I wouldn't say I necessarily love playing as the Knight, but he's in my rotation and I loathe playing against him. There's zero gameplay involved on the survivor side against Knight. You run to a tile, hold W to the next, and take a hit either way depending on the guard he deployed. There's no skilled interaction to be found. Really bad design.

    Pinhead is a bit different. I don't mind his power, but Pinhead players tend to go out of their way to find the most insufferable build and playstyle possible. The player is usually pretty bad, but they have Engineer's Fang and 4 slowdowns.

    Knight.

    I love playing him, but he's super boring to play against.

    Spirit and Nemmy. Spirit is...i don't think i have to say anything and Nemesis players really like to tunnel with Eruption equiped.

    I love playing Legion, but I dislike going against Legion

    The primary reason I think this is, is because I play legion in a very stupid and aggressive "up in your face" way with SF/Enduring/Lethal/Surge and some aura reading addons, and most Legions I play against just run some variation of Sloppy/Thana, which gets extremely boring after the 50th time you've seen it

    It's more like I see things that I don't do:

    Hag- putting more then 1 trap around the hook

    Pig- Tunneling a Survivor with a RBT on

    Dredge. I like playing as him because he promotes unexpected things to happen (nothing quite like catching a survivor in a locker).

    But the dark filter of his power on survivor is quite uncomfortable. I don't get headaches or dizzy like some people, but I certainly don't enjoy it.

    Knight is fun to play I like when survivors can't do nothing to counter me than try to hold W. But he is miserable to play agains't because of that same reason.

    That's pretty much my list usually I don't like playing killers that I don't like playing agains't. Maybe tombstone piece myers too I like to play him but that add on is bit broken and not fun to face as survivor.

    Hag. It's a complete coin-flip whether the survivors know how to play against her or not and that goes for my teammates too. If they do then Hag is easily bullied and not a threat, if they don't it's an easy 4k for her.
