Doctor is annoying but that's tempered with the fact he's fun to play. I really like playing against Nurse and Artist unless they're much better at their role than I am as survivor (which, to be fair, it isn't that hard to be a better Killer than I am Survivor) but that's more match making than anything as a Killer.
It's not really any Killers that I find annoying as much as it's any Killer who tunnels or slugs for the 4K. Win or lose if it's spreading hooks in the game it's normally a fun game. Tunnelling and slugging for the 4K means the game is a slog win or lose.

It's not the Killers, it's the way their playerbase plays. I will happily take any number of Skull Merchants over the ways people play Plague or Deathslinger any day.

Chucky has been my least favorite killer to face since he released. You just know you're going to hear "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" within 10 seconds of being unhooked.

pinhead. literally the only killer i truly hate going against :') i dont even think he's op or anything the chain hunt is just so annoying... every pinhead match feels super slow and kinda miserable tbh. also i usually end up being the one that has to get the box a lot of the time and it sucks 💔

Huntress
Feels really difficult to play on console, meanwhile it seems that all a PC player needs to do is equip a couple aura perks and then click on you and you die. You can dodge the hatchets you notice coming early enough but the ones you don't are just free hits, from halfway across the map, and you get no chase points, no chance to use pallets, etc. Not to mention the camping, coming second only to Bubba.

The Box, you opened it! I understand! :D

That sound suddenly came to life in my head lol :D

Doctor truly has a death machine in the pro hands, due to the electric shocks he gives, it becomes impossible to loop, especially if he's using bamboozle.

I just can’t stand boring antiloop. Artist placing in front of pallet, hold hatchet huntress I really hate. I like their powers I just hate them when used like this

Blight and Wraith.
If I could never face either of them ever again, I would be quite happy.

Skull Merchant, Pinhead. I deep sigh when its one of them.

- Birb Lady. The sounds she makes are grating to me and are just too common during a match against her. Gameplay wise, she’s fine though a little dull.
- Trapper. I love playing as him (when MmR works) but I hate facing him because I get too paranoid to step on grass or dark areas and still end up with a trap up my butt.
- Cracked HillyBilly. It just feels like I have zero chance once they start downing everyone non-stop.
- Huntress only because of her lullaby. It keeps playing in my head long after the match and it’s so annoying.

Tbh? I am usually a killer main but I really hate going against Blight.
3 -
Real.
I've only encountered one chucky playstyle since his release and its this.
0 -
Not really any specific killer for me.
It's more like few add-ons. I hate Shackles Hag so much...
0 -
- 1. Chucky
- I don't like the height advantage on certain loops and maps
- I have yet to find a non-tunneling Chucky since his release
- Unoriginal power
- Introduced Friends till the End perk
2. Hillbilly
- Overdrive felt like an unnecessary buff imo
- Map dependent
- Inconsistent hitboxes
- Too good with meta perks (pain res, grim, pop, nowhere to hide, etc.)
3. Blight
- Same reasons as Hillbilly excluding overdrive
4. Singularity
- You're dead if you don't have an EMP or if your team does not care
- The playstyle feels like a nurse but with cameras…
- Locking on to a survivor and replacing bio pods are easy
5. Nemesis
- Extremely uncreative power
- Zombies always get in my way in crucial moments
- Hardcore tunnelers

I've read a lot of great comments, and yes, many of them are really frustrating. Now it’s time for me to tell you about my least favorite killers. I don’t enjoy playing against two characters in particular. The first is Myers, and the other is Hag, and my dislike is entirely due to their addons. Myers can use unlimited level 3 to insta-mori, which ruins the game. For Hag, there’s an addon where you can’t tell that her traps have been triggered and there’s no muddy decoy of Hag appearing, which makes her feel like she’s cheating.I dislike these two characters for this reason, and if possible, these addons should be changed.

The only killers I frequently don't have fun against are:
- Wesker
- Chucky
- Clown
The remaining roster I actually find fun to face.
Those 3 are so boring to me and just offer uninteresting gameplay. I can see why others might like them, but they just don't do it for me.

my teamates .

Nemesis & Wraith . Both camp and tunnel like mad.

I don't even know how to describe why, but I really dislike facing Knights
0 -
I hate playing against Legion, but I quite like playing as Legion.
I think a lot of people hate Legion. When I play Legion, I can go 3-4 games straight and people will give up straight away.

On a bad day: all of them.
On a good day: Spirits because I feel like they never let up and the vacuum cleaner phasing is basically a guessing game as to whether you go down or not. Get hit, phase, down. Rinse and repeat.
Doctors because I hate being interrupted mid-action and just standing there like an idiot
Trappers because they make me too paranoid to even touch a loop
Legion because mending is really fun and cool and I love doing it the whole match, especially when my teammates don't know that the worst thing to do against them is to huddle together like they're on a school trip
Wraiths because it's just hit and run and they in my experience BM a lot more often
The rest are tolerable. I might even have fun versing them (god forbid!)

Myers because of the insta mori bs addons that should be deleted. If I see a myers I just run into a locker and wait until they grab me so I hook suicide.
Playing against bubba is also pretty boring
1 -
pinhead, chucky and singularity gotta be the ones I definitely the ones I least enjoy going against. I’ve seen so many say skull merchant and I guess I'm lucky that I have yet to face one.
0 -
The amount of survivors who do this when I'm playing mirror Myers and can't even tier up is hilarious.
1 -
when it comes to this topic I’ve always preferred voicing my opinion through tier lists also No tier and D tier don’t necessarily mean I find the kit overpowered or something
3 -
My list is pretty big. Basically 2/3 of BHVR original killers are either annoying (Legion), too damn braindead (Wraith and also Legion), crappy concept (Trickster, Dredge, Twins) or a freak that shouldn't exist (Nurse, Plague).
These are just examples because, as I've said, 2/3 of the original killers fall in one of these categories for me.
The other 1/3 and all licensed killers I don't have any complaints.0 -
Skull Merchant because that is really the only universally correct answer.
Also, Chucky (always get free hits when he is in stealth and I can't figure out how to counter this) and Pinhead (guaranteed win against solo queue)

I’m going to try to focus only on the killer and not the people who play them or play them in a particular way.
But I personally really dislike Spirit. Her incessant breathing sound really gets to me and just makes the killer appear obnoxious. I always feel spirit games as sweaty regardless of if the killer player isn’t necessarily playing her ‘sweaty’ if that makes sense..
I also just detest Trickster as a character lol he again feels obnoxious to play against and something about his laugh and the music/sound when he approaches sets me off. Sadly, this one is probably also a case of (most) trickster players I have come across have tended to disproportionately been the type to bm (unwarranted).I also don’t like playing against killers who constantly put you in a mending state of health broken state (but this is more due to the way if affects my build - it may be obvious but I use For the People a lot and games against legion and Plague (who I do actually like as a killer mechanic) very much negate a big part of my build sadly.

ts Myers or clown

I feel like half of my games are against Wesker, and I'm tired of him for that reason. I don't like the VFX when you play against The Unknown. I don't like Deathslinger in general.
0 -
I dont care, shittiest killer to play against until the bs addons are deleted from the game
0 -
trapper.
It just feel so random and don't know how to get better next time.
0 -
It changes every now and again but its mostly the artist and doctor.
But right now I really hate going against nemesis!!! His zombies are so annoying with how fast they are!!!
0 -
Theres only 1 killer i have GG go next mentality and its the skull merchant. I probably don't have to tell why. Its been said many times.
I just simply get pissed off in games against her. No other killer does that to me. (Deathslinger comes close)
