Killer is too easy
Is it just me or is it really easy to play as killer? I can hit survivors from a very far distance and even when they 360 me I just swing and I am still able to hit them. My wifi and ping is very strong so that cant be the reason. I also noticed that slugging a 4k is extremely easy and seems to be a quick win when playing as killer.

Tell me you’ve only played against baby survivors without telling me you’ve only played against baby survivors.

If playing killer is too hard for you just say that. Like i said. way too easy as killer and devs should balance it out.

Its extremely hard to get 2 kills for me at rank 1. Try playing killer at rank 1-4 instead of rank 10 lol

If you can steamroll survivors so easily, why don't you stream and/or play competitively? Easy money, man. Do you mind sharing some clips of your gameplay so we can learn from your amazing skills?

I dont think it takes much skill when you can hit a survivor from such a far distance and/or hit them with my back. I think its more of a tech issue than my superior skill.

yet we struggle with that. So please, share with us your gameplay, so we can see, what we're doing wrong

Just continue playing and wait ;)
Soon you'll be saying how OP survivors are.

Did you really just complain that the normal standart-attack isn't hard to hit lol?
If it's so easy to win with the way to easy standart-attacks then please show us a video against a swf with 5k hours (per person) or more on freddy by you. If you're still able to say that after that then sure, you win I guess xD
Also it's depends on the killer if slugging is a easy way to win, on pig it can drag the game to ages if you try to slug for the 4k. I know what I'm talking about, I just got my adept with pig yesterday on garden of joy xD

Killer is definitely not easy when going against a good team. You have to be very good with killer to keep up.
With that said, killers do have access to strategies that are a bit too good for the skill required, mainly camping and tunneling. But slugging can also get out of hand. It would be great if BHVR nerfed those strategies so killers would have to play normally to have a better chance at winning.
And if nerfing those strategies would make killer too weak, they could easily buff the fun and healthy strategies for killers as well. It would be nice if spreading hooks was a bit more viable and tunneling and camping was much less viable.

The lunge distance really isn't that far, so I have no clue what you are trying to say here. The point about 360s is that these only happen when a survivor has no other option. They try to get you to swing in the wrong direction but if you can handle that, it's a free hit. 360s are not and never should be a reliable way to avoid hits.
Anyway, if you have mained survivor before, then yes, your killer experience will be very easy for a while. You already know how the game is played, so that gives you a big advantage over many people you will play against at first. Keep playing and you will encounter some more experienced survivors, that can make your game very difficult.

Killer is never easy. That's an oxymoron. You play 2 matches vs bottom of the barrel survivors and suddenly decide killers are OP.

Survivors also easy.

I can escape as long as my team members get their act together.

DBD in general isnt a hard game.

Yeah, I'd love to see someone do a non-lunge only match. So many loops just become god loops because their design is so bad, because it assumes you have the lunge and then some. And that, too. Play Freddy, Pig, Clown, Ghost Face. You'll get nothing with those killers, against good survivors. I know because I used to play those killers quite a bit, and do no longer. It's almost like people gage killer's strength across the board based on the performance of like comp Nurse and stuff. They never make the killer player sound human, or capable of error or inefficiency.

Even with lunges a lot of the loops are ridiculous especially on garden of joy or eyrie of crows. You often have to loop nearly pixelperfect to get a hit because the hitbox of the killer is so big xD
