    Huntress is a killer I'm terrible with, but I took her all the way to P3-50 and had fun, even if I lost most of my trials.

    Billy, I'm awful with him. Probably will have fun with after update.

    Huntress, not completely awful, but far from good. Still love to play and land hatchet from a far is one of the most satisfying thing in the game.

    For me the killers that I just CANNOT play at all even though I really want to are Blight, Spirit, and Nurse-

    • Blight because I don't have the mental processing speeds to play as him.
    • Spirit because I don't have a headset that gives me directional audio and is hard for me to discern where survivors are at(hence why they need to seriously address the fact that she's an accessibility problem already).
    • Nurse because I just can't stand how slow she moves at basekit without her Matchbox addon forcing me to physically require that Iridescent addon just to play her(which sucks since Matchbox is an addon that is basically intended for beginning Nurse players). Plus I hate chasing survivors around shack as her if basement is in it since I can't ever avoid Blinking into the basement by accident.


    Then the one killer that I really enjoy playing as, but struggle due to some of the design choices are Huntress because of these reasons:

    • I don't like the slower move speed since I like being fast and it makes chasing at loops a bit more annoying to me.
    • The movement speed while aiming/throwing is annoying to me even with the Shiny Pin addon.
    • The recovery speed cooldown is so long that I feel like I physically need the Oak Shaft addon.
    • I wish that there was a settings option for both Huntress and Trickster to ALWAYS show the locker auras at all times like with Huntress's one brown addon she had on release since I tend to have trouble finding lockers to reload at early whenever I'm in a part of the map with no lockers at all.
    • And a few other minor things that aren't as bad-

    I just want her to be at least a 4.6 m/s killer so that if I'm out of hatchets I can be a normal M1 killer if needed and the locker aura setting. If those two changes were made I'd be pretty fine with playing as her a lot more. (And, yes, I know that her one Iridescent addon makes her a 4.6 m/s killer, but it only works when she's fully out of hatchets and I'd rather have it at all times in case I get stuck at a loop where I can't use my hatchets at.

    I just started diving into Billy a couple of weeks ago. I’m definitely not as good with him as I am with other Killers.

    I’m kind of just jumping into the deep end with him though, that way I can force myself to get used to the chainsaw. I am using all 100 of my Speed Limiters and only using the chainsaw so it becomes muscle memory. It’s interesting how much there is to learn with the chainsaw.

    I used to think it was useless and only for movement. But now I see how much more you can do with it. You can zone people and force them to turn when you rev. You can get really good at feathering and timing the chainsaw to activate the minute you want it to. You can rev it as you are walking to a pallet so that you use the walk distance to your advantage when destroying the pallet.

    Suffice it to say he is a very interesting character. Plus, how is it not a fun time when you get to run around at high speed using his were-cat skin?

    I'm really enjoying Huntress and Deathslinger at the moment. I'm an absolutely hopeless Deathslinger but a little bit better with Huntress (though I wouldn't say I'm in any way good). They are very fun Killers to play as regardless of how well I do. Their powers are just so much fun to use.

    For me it‘s oni. I waste so much time going for hits with his dash and then I miss, which results in getting gen rushed all the time.

    Hillbilly. I played him on stream one time and I swear I might’ve traumatized the people watching me lol.

    As primarily console player (at least until we get cross progression, lol), I tend to ignore killers who are really limited by controller (Blight, Oni, Billy, etc.), except Huntress. I can never be as good with her as I can on PC, but just good enough for it to still be fun.

    Also, I like playing Spirit (I used to be a Spirit main), even though I have lateral hearing loss (i.e. no directional hearing, really) and most often play from my couch on a TV with no headphones. Obviously this is a massive handicap with that particular killer. If we ever get visual directional audio cues in game, I may actually get to be good with her, which would be awesome.

    My Billy is godawful. I cannot for the life of me understand why or how I ever mained him when I started out.

    i love zooming around the map as colossal titan oni roleplaying. im turbo trash with him tho

  • radiantHero23

    Had 3 games with him yesterday. First and second where total stomps from the survivors.

    The third I tried something else. I didn't hook them. I just slugged them.

    You wanna know what? I actually got pretty decent results. Singu gets heavily punished by hooking if you think about it.

    - pods go away

    - can't use your power around hook, therefore has to waste time going a few meters to use the power TO GET AWAY FROM THE HOOK

    - next chase is worse due to the pod being gone, making overclock last less long in the process

    I don't encourage slugging. I don't like doing it excessively. But the killers kit seems to encourage it a lot.

    Singularity. I either do really well or really terribly and there is very little in between. When it works he's fun as heck.

    Huntress. For the life of me I cannot get used to playing her without a crosshair. So my hatchets will fly in all different directions but mostly not hit the survivor.

    Deathslinger. As a console player dealing with DbD's twitchy joystick controls, aiming with Deathslinger is really difficult, but it makes it all the more satisfying when I actually get a shot off. Also he's a cowboy, I'm a huge fan of that. I just wish I could be better with him.

    I also wish I was a better Ghost Face but my stealth is terrible, haven't worked out the dos and don'ts.

    New Billy. No questions asked.

    I am decent at both Nurse and Huntress, so those are out and even though I am bad with Blight, I don't enjoy him, because he feels weird to me.

  • 09SHARKBOSS

    Blight and Huntress, basically.

    With Blight it's a little weird. I quickly became decent with him and started having tons of fun once he released, even in the beginning when his FOV was bugged. Than other killers got released, I started playing Blight less and less, and at some point I spent a few months without playing him, right after his collision had been changed. When I played him again to try a new build, I just couldn't get him right. I was out of pratice, but learning him felt harder than before for some reason. It COULD have something to do with SBMM being implemented (matches were a little harder in general due to the new matchmaking), but I just couldn't play him right and kept sliding of things and missing his lethal rushes more and more. At some point I just stopped because I wasn't having fun with him anymore. But hey, I know how fun he can be and still play him when there's a daily ritual. Just not much more than that.


    With Huntres... well, I just don't have a very good aim and often miss the timing from the Hatchets too, lol. But I played her a lot when I was doing her achievements, improved to some degree and learned how satisfying landing hatchets can be. But I only play her from time to time, and everytime I feel I need to learn her again, hahaha.
