Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

I was asked to make a tier list so here it is 🤷🏻‍♂️

So before you all scroll down, & jump into the comments to tell me exactly why I'm wrong (which is fine by the way these things are subjective)

There was a list posted a few days back on here saying a ranking like best add ons & killer knows what they're doing with said killer.

So in a similar fashion, my list is based on 4 things

  1. Best perks for said killer
  2. Best add ons for said killer
  3. A player with vast experience on said killer (lets say public games not looking at comp here)
  4. My 8+ years & 15,000+ hours playing the game on both sides

This is the first tier list i've ever made (probably last too) but given all the above I think its a pretty fair reflection of what i've played as & against.

Before anyone asks Trapper isn't in my D tier because I main trapper & I do well, always have, I've also played against some amazing trappers too, he's certainly hindered & will never be S tier but I just don't see him as low as most players (subjective of course)

If nothing else most might at least agree Nurse is top & skull merchant is bottom, anyone questioning Hag needs to play against a very good scroll wheel hag on the right maps for her, she's rare but she can destroy many a team.

Can probably mix up B & C tiers quite a bit to be honest that probably would be much more player dependent.

Tldr - oh look another pointless tier list in a world of subjective internet gamers that you'll likely disagree almost entirely with!

    I agree with most of this tbh, but id put Oni and Singularity higher.

    Hag is definitely not A tier, she is basically a 4.4 Trapper. The only thing that saves her is her pink global TP addon.

    • I agree with everything, but Singularity (for me) is tier A+ or low S

    I really like this list, it feels right. Thank you for putting this together.

    Shouldn‘t the fourth deadliest killer be higher? (Sadako)

    I'd rather play Skull Merchant than Chucky. He's 110 trash with a choreographed power. And Vecna and Singularity are way too high. They're some of the most frustrating killers to play as in the game. I'd rather play Skull Merchant than them, too. How do you see that Deathslinger and Ghost Face are bottom tier but not that? The way I'm doing mine (tier list), I've got 1 main question when I place them: "What can this killer do?" If they can't do anything, they're going low. If they actually give you reward for your skill and time put in, they go higher.

    And, well, let's be transparent. I'm gonna have a critique of everybody's tier list, because it's not the same as mine, and I can't even make up my mind on who goes where.

    Hag is terrible even with top tier build, she doesn't deserve A-tier at all.

    Wesker should be dropped down a tier, he's been hardcore powercrept by some killers and doesn't have what it takes to remain relevant in high tiers.

    Huntress should also be dropped down a tier, aside of camping potential, she isn't really good.

    Oni, Houndmaster and Chucky should definitely be placed in A-tier.

    Slinger tier D? This is the biggest misconception for Slinger as he has some of the best zoning capabilitier and chase powers in entire game, he definitely deserves to be tier A.

    i kinda agree with most expect deathslinger and huntress placements it's not a bad list

    Deathslinger with best addons is D tier? I think that's a skill issue on your part

    Slinger takes too long to do anything. If you want single target focus you'd be better served by Doctor.

    This tierlist is okay but I have concerns about the rules. How many hours do you have as survivor compared to killer?

    110 killer that has to shoot, reel, hit and reload for every health state. Why do all that when you can play 115 killer that has better macro but is equally oppressive in the chase?

    She's only deadliest in low mmr because her power is a bit more complicated than most killers, and survivors are not exactly given a lot of information on how to face her properly. That allows condemned to activate a lot more.
