Your killer main and favorite build for them?

Plague build is kind of basic, but Corrupt, Pain Res, Plaything, and Discordance. Corrupt lets you keep a net of infection on the early gens, and the last two are nasty for getting value out of Corrupt Purge; survivors will hold W away from Plague with her power if they know she's around, and Discordance lets you know where to target.
My other main is Artist, and I haven't fixed my new build since they ruined STBFL on her, but Silver Bell + Severed Hands is god-tier on her, and I'd like to nominate Iron Maiden as being a sleeper hit on her? Nobody expects it, and when you bird survivors on distant gens, they'll jump into lockers to get rid of them. This partially removes that counterplay and can get you free downs the first time they try it.

Usually the Unknown with Plaything, Third Seal, Unforeseen, and a free slot (usually Pentimento, Pop, or Grim) with an indoor offering. I want to give the spooks. More often than not it's just to mess around and chill

My standard Legion build is Lightborn + Enduring + Surge + Iron Grasp and is the same for both PC & Switch.
The add-ons sometimes change but tbh, Julie's Mix-tape and Mischief list almost never leave my build (at the moment I'm enjoying Julie's Mix-tape with the Iri Button for some extra anti-loop).
Outside of events I usually bring an ebony mori because moris are fun (it's also useful as a makeshift hook counter for when I want to slug early game death hook Survivors).

For the Unknown I'll never unequip Unforeseen+ Nowhere to Hide it's just not negotiable. Their best add-ons, Vanishing Box+ Captured by the Dark I feel similarly about
For Pinhead the build I settled on was Plaything, Pentimento, Thrill and Face the Darkness. Face the Darkness is my "bait" Hex to force Survivors to break totems. I think FtD is sadistic and cruel on Pinhead, but it's on brand for him and I'd like to think it's a nice change of pace from using Devour or Ruin as the bait. Survivors these days sometimes ignore Ruin.
Despite all that I sadistically relish in Survivor misery guilt free because the build only comes online if you hook all survivors before your bones break I think that's honestly fair
I loooove Legion I've gained them for years I always dump them for somebody younger and prettier but I always come back to them no matter what. My goto is Enduring, Bamboozle Dissolution Jolt I don't play Legion to stack slowdown I AM the slowdown!
When I play Legion I average 2 Enduring grabs every match I give 0 Fs about respecting pallets with my power up In fact I try to delay my power until I'm near the pallet then pounce like a kitty cat Survivors will tend to drop the pallet out of reflex to deny your power but often I end up on the same side of the pallet as them so they panic vault but that's where the Enduring comes in

Daddy Myers
Scratched Mirror + whatever add-on I have to spare.
Play With Your Food, Undying, Haunted Grounds and Franklins Demise.
Hit Survivor, pretend to chase them, disappear, go back to their dropped item, hide nearby, proceed to give a heart attack to the Survivor when they come back to collect it.
It’s basically all I do when I play Killer. I’m addicted to it.Sometimes the team will challenge me and try to escape with the item which is just more fun all around, not unlike chest protector Bubbi.

The Plague: One of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
- Bloodhound
- Corrupt Intervention
- Infectious Fright
- Dark Devotion
I like to use the perks that Plague comes with.
This setup is good for causing chaos and terror.
Corrupt helps in the early game to get in some infections which set the wheels of this nightmare into motion.
When I find my obsession I quickly infect them then damage them. The non-believer then runs off into the level while carrying the message of terror with them. During the panic I go undetectable to spread the real message of the end-times.
Infectious Fright is the cherry on top. The cries of the unfaithful really do make the heart leap. At this point I am in full demon mode filled with a bloodlust that only the blood of the unfaithful can satisfy.
Bloodhound ties it all together. A ferocious craze for blood so strong that it induces a single-minded murderous thrill.
There’s a cycle of never-ending sickness, the screams of the fearful, the whirling chaos of panic, trails and trails of blood everywhere… No Survivor escapes unscathed… Fear, panic, chaos, confusion, terror and fright…

Mine would have to be my Pallet Chewer Pig. We play with Workshop Grease and John's Medical File, taking:
- Game Afoot
- Brutal Strength
- Nemesis
- Deadlock (or if you're feeling spicy, Furtive Chase)
The plan is to counter Pig's one true weakness... pallets. If people try to greed pallets we have JMF and Workshop Grease to make the most of our dash anti-loop/crouch mind games.
If not we deliberately eat a pallet stun for Nemesis or M1 for Game Afoot and make them the obsession, and any pre-throwing we instant break quickly with Brutal, and stick on them with Game Afoot.
I made it as a joke build... but it actually worked way better than I expected... and I kinda love it 😅

Xenomorph:
Brutal/Tinkerer/Trail of torment/Machine learning
Add ons: Cat carrier + Cereal

Pig
Surveillance- so I can hear a Gen being repaired and if I kick a Gen it'll turn white as it's losing progress and turn yellow when a Survivor starts repairing the Gen
Thrilling Tremors- picking up a Survivor blocks all Gens that aren't being repaired
Corrupt- start the trial with 3 farthest Gen block for 120 seconds or until I down my first Survivor
Whispers- active once I am within 32M of a Survivor

Billy: Lethal Pursuer, BBQ, Huntress Lullaby and Plaything with Apex Muffler and Spiked Boots. The idea is to give the survivors so much to look out for that they crack under the pressure while you get some nice cross map chainsaws.
Doctor: Lethal Pursuer, BBQ, Zanshin Tactics and Brutal Strength. This is my comfort build. Zanshin Tactics allows me to turn off my brain and just chase, Lethal + BBQ help me spread madness and Brutal Strength is for those filthy pre drops.

I like rapid brutality and Save the best for last on any M1 killer

My main is Legion. My builds are generally pretty varied but they usually include Surge and Enduring. I just can't bear to take those off of them.
1 -
Hunk or Wesker and whatever the current meta build is for them(from OTZDARVA's website).
1 -
Wraith, Spirit Fury/Enduring, Bamboozle, Gearhead (sometimes Rancor instead). I'm not really feeling anything else right now except maybe Demogorgon.
1 -
This guy gets it. His best add-ons aren't double reload. It's Warden's Keys/Oil Can.
2 -
just seeing a Nintendo Switch screen from DBD on the forums makes me happy lol
2 -
started maining nemesis this year just got to p33.
distortion, dead man switch, monitor and abuse, mindbreaker.My addons are broken coin (this essentially adds as a free health state. It spawns one less injection on the map). And of course Marvin’s blood for a quick tier 3.
I love the rng of the zombies and while a lot of people complain about them I notice the people that do aren’t bringing perks to make the zombies strong. Three out of my four perks make the zombies getting survivors off of gens actually worth something and doing that can prove invaluable at times.
1 -
No main but I run pain res and grim embrace with almost every killer. Maybe then throw bbq and noed there or corrupt.
