    Oni and singularity for sure, i really enjoy them but sadly i dont see them very often at all

    The Executioner. He's one of the few unnerving Killers to face for me. I'd like some more Singularity and Oni too.

    Actually all killers i love are pretty popular: Xeno, Chucky, Wesker, Blight, Billy, Oni etc.

    Rare killers are for me is Hag, Twins, Trickster etc and they can stay how they are. I am happy to not see them.

    Demo, Billy, Huntress (I love playing against Huntress), Bubba, Oni, Wesker and for some reason Myers.

    One evening I played about 10 games with The Twins. May have skewed the data of several survivors and messed up their games as many were not prepared

    Pyramid head

    I rarely see those and everytime I do they’re the most fun matches ever as survivor

    glitchboi Member Posts: 6,023

    Wraiths that actually try to play a chase-oriented playstyle are pretty rare for me. They're really fun to go against, but most Wraiths just play hit & run.

    Xenomorph, best killer ever !

    tjt85 Member Posts: 986

    I don't see Xenos often enough. I also quite like facing the Twins (that one Twins main is taking a break from DBD, I guess).

    Used to be Demos too, but they're no longer extinct in the wild now that Stranger Things has returned and that makes me happy.

    Same but I’ll also throw in a good Demopuppy who is really good using their portals for map pressure and a good Bubbi Boi who uses undetectable perks to scare the crap out of us.

    I've only been back two weeks. I am yet to see a singular singularity so that would be my pick. Sick of neme, could be fun to see more nurses but my mmr is so low theyre really rare.

    Pig but that may change as they continue slowly turning her into a less effective wraith/sadako clone.

    Twins and Pallet Freddy.

    artist the problem is that 98% of people play her in the most boring ways imaginable her gameplay is actually pretty scary when it’s someone who is very good with her

    Oni: Oni is a very scary killer because he can always end the match in just one Bloody Fury. So it's always a thriller to play against one, especially a good one who can flick.

    Artist: I'm an Artist-main by myself and it is always a pleasure to have a match as survivor against an Artist.

    Billy: Since his rework (a little bit due to his tome challenges) I see him more often which is nice because I like to play against him. Can't tell why but it is always fun.

    Tiffany: Yes, Tiffany not Chucky because she is a cute gurl.

    Huntress: Always fun to play against, especially a good one.

    Demogoron: Demogorgon is cool and it is sad I don't see him often despite he is now available again for new players and also from a big franchise.

    Freddy, Bubba, Pig and Trapper

    Yeah they are all weaker so I get why people don't play them that much, with maybe Bubba being less uncommon than the others now.

    I think they are more fun as their game play involves good old fashioned looping which is the game play I enjoy the most as survivor

    I'm glad Deathslinger got a Tome because he's the one ranged killer who's actually somewhat fun to play against. Dodging his spear is exciting and if he gets a shot in, it usually feels like he earned it, unlike Huntress and her truck-sized hatchets.

    Singularity can also be fun, when they're not camping generators. Trying to help out teammates with EMPs mid-chase is an engaging challenge.

    Artist. Way more fun than people think.

  • MaTtRoSiTy
    MaTtRoSiTy Member Posts: 2,090

    I really enjoy playing Artist but I do not find her very fun to play against which makes me not want to play her as I prefer everyone to have fun in matches and survivors in general don't seem to enjoy her.

    Knight is more fun to play than I would like to admit openly lol... but same thing, very unfun to play against and people clearly do not have a good time.

    But yeah, I do like playing Artist

  • GannTM
    GannTM Member Posts: 10,893

    I must be a very rare person because Artist is top 5 favorite killers to go against to me, especially when the engagement involves longer ranges shots. Those kinds of plays make me feel like holding W against her isn’t as boring as other killers.

    radiantHero23 Member Posts: 4,481

    Pig and Sadako. You love to play against, what you love to play.

    Also Huntress, Xeno, Billy, Bubba, Wesker, Twins, Myers, Singularity and a ton of others.

    Last but not least: Knight! I just adore to find out what bug I can use to counter him next.

    Pyramid Head and Nemesis


    They are anti-loop done in a really cool way and their powers are mind games on their own

    maybe Hag. Competent Hags are really scary🤣

    I'm surprised to read that someone wants Huntress because she's "rare". On my European server they are very common.

    Bubba - when we take the camping and other memey/toxic things away, he is very fun to go against. Very fun, and there is a lot at stake while being chased by him. Many people seem to have dropped him with the introduction of the anti-facecamping mechanic. Hopefully we see an increase of Bubbas who focus on chasing, and/or scary undetectable builds. I love the thrill :3

    Freddy - mostly because I *adore* the aesthetics and the feel of the Dream World. I go against Freddy so rarely now that whenever I do face him, I avoid waking up, because I want to relish the dream world state as much as possible. I'm sure people don't play him much because he is sort of weak, boring to play, and has mostly boring/useless addons. He has so much potential and I am really hoping that he gets some love soon (and keeps the dream world! <3)

    Deathslinger - although this tome has brought many people to play as him for the time bring. He needs some love to make him feel a bit better to play (probably less crude ADS). Otherwise, very fun imo.

    Wait, so do you or do you not enjoy long-range Artist play style?

  • Akumakaji
    Akumakaji Member Posts: 5,487

    I always try to shoot at gens with two crows 7s of walking apart. It mostly never works, but when it does, it scares the living daylights out of survivors.

  • Ariel_Starshine
    Ariel_Starshine Member Posts: 937

    Pinhead because his voice lines are funny and Chucky for the same reason :)

    I havent seen a Freddy in 2024 since now. Well, I play Helldivers 2 a lot so maybe thats why, but I cant blame people to avoid him.

  • MikeyBoi

    Bubba and Hillbilly

    I got lucky enough to play against a Freddy earlier today, and he had a very difficult time trying to catch us. The face campers you played against might have thought it was the only way for them to get a kill, even if it is not an effective strategy with him.

    But with the AFC, this is probably no longer a thing. Hopefully your future trials against Freddy will be fun.

  • JudithMorel

    anyone but Nurse, Singularity, Pinhead, Artist.

  • MaTtRoSiTy
    MaTtRoSiTy Member Posts: 2,090

    That is fair enough but yeah I think you are probably a minority there as most survivors do not enjoy anti-loop hold W counter style killers.

    Singularity is actually so unique and cool, I love facing and playing as him. Dredge too. Honestly, I'd like to see most of the lesser used cast show up more. It'd certainly make gameplay less monotonous.

  • HerInfernalMajesty
    HerInfernalMajesty Member Posts: 1,943

    That’s a great question.

    Hmm…

    • Trapper: He’s the easiest to play against to me. The suspense of playing against his traps is fun.
    • Pyramid Head: I don’t see PH much anymore but is fun to play against. Dodging the long distance attack is fun.
    • Dredge: 200 BP per locker lock is too good to resist.
  • Caiman
    Caiman Member Posts: 2,959

    When playing against a Dredge, I have a bad habit of going into the basement and locking all the lockers just for the BP. 6 lockers = 1200 points!

    Onyro, Freddy, Twins, Oni, Plague, Artist, Bubba, skull merchant.


    I could go with never seeing Wesker again.

    I recently unlocked The Twins, The Artist and The singularity ( I like the oddballs and underdogs) but man are they hard to learn.

    hooefully I’ll run into you all at some point and if I do please forgive the mistakes and goofy plays :)
