    Spies from the Shadows, Predator, Thrilling Tremors, Miscellaneous 4th perk. The three I've found all give Springtrap a pretty decent sense of low-key information that a lot of survivors don't expect and let's you catch them at the most vital times. Thrilling also works for some slowdown and you can tack whatever you want on at the end.

    Spies is just in general an extremely underrated perk imo. Crows will just straight up snitch on a survivor right behind you and then ping someone else randomly on a gen halfway across the map five seconds later.

    I’ve found that he’s pretty good with most builds. Played enduring, spirit fury, two can play, shadowborn and had a ball. His one addon the guitar that lets you see what gen is being worked on honestly makes him viable with all builds as long as you are good in chase.

    Feel like I should point out the Access panel addon gives similar info. While cocking your axe back, any survivor near a door gets revealed with killer instinct. Can come in handy for trying to figure out which door to go to next.

    Add-ons: Streamers, Security Guards Badge

    Perks: Friends till the End, Furtive Chase, Lethal Pursuer, Nemesis

    Geared towards a very aggressive playstyle, The synergy of these perks Reveal the Obsessions aura after every hook, afflict new obsessions with oblivious, and current obsessions with exposed. Get the ball rolling by going after the obsession non-stop, and you also get Furtive chases 10% haste and undetectable for 18 seconds per hook. Pair this with his Security gate teleporting, and the Streamers add on that allows you to move faster through them, as well as Security Guards badge providing an additional 10 seconds of undetectable after you leave them, and you get a build where you rarely (if ever) have a Terror Radius, Always have a target survivor to go after, as well as a quick means to reach them. No gen defense, but you can get downs/hooks very quickly, and it makes survivors paranoid… until they figure out that you're primarily targeting the obsession, At which point, everyone who isn't the obsession tend to rush gens asap, creating matches wherein it becomes a desperate race against time!

    This build is thrilling to play, and synergizes shockingly well with Springtrap's Gates mobility. Honestly I've been having a Blast with it, as well as streaming it for others to see it in action, so give it a try and go nuts!

    I'm still experimenting but I have a few I like that help with my more aggressive playstyle

    Lethal Pursuer - when combined with the doors lets you just IMMEDIATEDLY jump into things and disrupt survivors which is fun

    Barbeque and Chili - a classic that ALSO helps you find your next survivor and also pairs really nicely with the doors, it can also help you find the last survivor which I appreciate(it also also pairs nicely with Lethal Pursuer)

    Tinkerer - can REALLY help buy you more time, and with each gen usually being paired with a door you can choose to drop by and interrupt the survivors working on it(I also like throwing the axe at gens being worked on to try and get survivors to get off of it)

    Eruption - I've just been testing perks to find a good gen slowdown perk for Springtrap and I've found Eruption to be fairly fun especially when combined with Tinkerer. You'll have to kick gens more often and the amount of kicks you can do per gen pretty much will go down, but there's fun in maximizing the perks value, and when going door to door to check on gens while looking for a survivor, you can usually choose to pitstop and kick the nearby gen to start forming a mass eruption

    I like the escape denial Springtrap! The main two things for this build are:

    • Blood Warden
    • Loot Bag (add-on)
    • Greasy Paper Plate (add-on)

    Keep in mind that you need to have a healthy Survivor or a Survivor with Endurance in the Exit Gate and axe them, otherwise the add-on doesn't work.

    As long as the Survivor has the Axe in them, they cannot escape, you can either grab them, or go for the other Survivors, then quickly hook them for the sweet Blood Warden value, best performed if the endgame timer is below half.

    I run this build with some QoL perks, like Agitation, Forever Entwined and Mad Grit.
