Xenomorph / Dracula / Rize.
Xenomorph because ive been a huge fan of Aliens and Predator since like 1994. I got used to how he works and im pretty decent, but he is certainly one of the hardest to play due to swfs having bigger advantages against xeno than most killers - multiturret safezones they can all run to at the slightest sign of danger lol.
Dracula because im also a big fan of castlevania, my favorite characters being Shanoa and Simon Belmont (sad they didnt make it in the game as characters instead of clothes). Played through allllll the castlevanias and hes the final boss in atleast 20 of the games. Only time you ever got to play as him was the 2nd lords of shadow that rewrote the story and killed the series, and a wii exclusive fighting game, so being able to play him in dbd was huge. His adaptability is quite usefull and feels easier to use against swfs compared to xeno, but he is a jack of all trades master of none, so he has to rely on all 3 forms all game.
Rize im still hesitant to play due to all the hate for ghoul, but she was my favorite character in the anime years before they came to dbd. So far shes just the "easy win" option if ur having a bad day.
Other than licenses id say Skull Merchant. Mostly cuz shes hot, but ive gotten used to using her on/off stealth much like chucky, but with antiloop that you barely have to think about lol

Nice, I used to Main Singularity, but I haven't played him in forever, I dunno who I main now, because I like a bunch of killers, like Xeno, Deathslinger, Pyramid Head, and Vecna… I might go back to Singularity soon.

He feels much stronger since the big buff lol i remember trying to play him before it

Who? Singularity? When was this buff? I want to know if this was before or after I started playing him.

Pig, Trapper, and Myers
In all 3 cases I feel like you can get pretty crafty with builds, making survivors think you are doing one thing, but actually faking them out with something devious/unexpected.
E.g:
- Face The Darkness Pig makes people think I'm going for headpops, when I am chase Pig.
- Bloody Coil Trapper with Hysteria and Deathbound to play stealth Trapper.
- Perma Tier 3 Myers with Alien Instinct and/or Friends Til the End, so people are less likely to realise I can see their aura after each hook since they don't get a sudden exposed proc.

Cant recall when but they added haste to his overclock mode, quick auto aim to his biopods, and slowed down the glowstick boxes, and made it so they cant pick them out of the box instantly

neat, think i started playing after the buffs

Ghoul is my only real main at the moment, but I play a few others as well.

Pyramidhead.
Love his snipes. He is not too broken or op, he is not too weak. Not too hard, not too simple. Golden middle and good skill ceiling that gives u motivation to improve. He has some stability here, even in term of bugs.
I love when my m2 is predicted and played right, that’s always so satisfying :D And yes, I’ll genuinely love my flicks even when I missed 10 times before. Probably he’ll be my first p100 with Rebecca Chambers. Still need to improve on him with my poor 600 hours of experience.
I also Ghostface main who loves sniping people on gens with license addon. That's so funny playing him not in a goofy way, but actually scaring survivors.

My recent Killer gameplay has been Unknown, Springtrap and a lil bit of Wesker.
Started playing Unknown when the new Community Cosmetic was announced, I want Detective Outfit.
Hes very fun and challenging to play, which isnt usually my cup of tea, but I really like Unknown, my twisty friend.Springtrap obviously because he came out and his gameplay is just excellent tho I stopped playing him cause Killer queues were astronomical during the recent event.
Wesker is an all time classic, who dosent like to go zoom, pick up a Mikaela and throw her at a wall lol.

Huntress, Doc

Pinhead, Why? because i love hellraiser and his sfx/vfx are TOO GOOOD MAN.
I just wish he got some love bc he needs it…
(Impaling wire fully basekit) for example
Or make the chains not break instantly but instead give an effect similarly to deathslingers chain

I play like a dozen dudes. I can't imagine just playing one killer.

YO!!! I MAIN HIM TOO!!!

I main Skull Merchant!
She is really unique when compared to the others and I love everything about her.

I usually float between a lot of killers, but the ones who are most accurate to the label are Xenomorph and Knight.
Xenomorph because I thought hey he looks cool (at this point I hadn't watched the film), and I just got good with him. Now I have way more appreciation for him having seen the films and not to mention, the sound design is peak.
Knight was the second killer I actually tried at getting good at, and I loved him so much. I like the feeling of being in command, like in a strategy game, and knight really captured that well. Then his big rework came and I solidified him as my secondary.
Recently I've been playing a lot of houndmaster though.

Above all else, Sadako, P100. And it's because I love JHorror and while her kit has flaws, I enjoy certain aspects like condemned and being unable to be stunned when demanifested, that was the best addition to her kit.
Second main is Unknown, because I just have so much fun banking shots and using insidious for jumpscares.2 -
100% deathslinger main this killer was my first P100 which I'm very proud of but other then that I just enjoy that he can almost stop any loop or tile that the survivors have along with some shots he can make through small cracks or even shoot on an entire different floor I love this killer alot but currently he is starting to feel weak with all the bugs he has so that's pretty sad, hopefully bhvr fixes him soon

i used to main wraith alot but due to obvious reasons
(mmr, swfs, power being not so great, having to use so many chase perks to even get him to work, survivor perks, ect)
i just feel so powerless whenever i go against a survivor and they use sb and make me cloak, only to run to a tile i cant really get my first hit on, since its next to where he was.
he gets very easily exploited when in power without a benefit or playing around it, forcing you to use bamboozle and mindbreaker or any other anti-exhaustion perk every match. the other two needing to be gen-regression.
but since clown and knight got buffed, i tried out knight with his undetectable addons, hes a nice change, i had my fun with him until i seemingly reached my limit.
and now clown got buffed to be essentially close to wraith basekit's speed but without really much of a cooldown or penalty,
giving you 15% haste with addons on demand for 8 secounds, thats 5,52m given over the survivors with ONE BOTTLE, i rather play clown and deal with predrops then wraith with his weaknesses.
you can still use slowdown or stack it with more haste or other perks. you can even use undetectable perks and hes essentially a much better and oppresive killer then wraith could ever be. (even with wraith's historically constant buffs over the years)
if wraith would get a buff or even a rework, i would love to try him again, but at the same time, i see why he wont be buffed….
but then i look at kaneki and think the entire community and dev team arent really taking balance seriously when they release him in such a state and have yet to really peg him down to not be a top 5 killer with nearly no brainpower required,
so the logic of "complex killer = strong" or "easy killer weak" cant really be applied. makes no sense why he is allowed to be so oppresive, but wraith shouldnt be buffed. just sad. but i'll be playing clown until he gets nerfed and then switch to someone else.0 -
Dredge, Artist, Plague
Dredge because I feel like Nightfall actually brings a bit of horror into the game and it's fun to jumpscare people from lockers.
Artist because I used to main Vel'koz in League of Legends so I love using geometry to get hits from a distance.
Plague because it's hilarious to see a lobby of full med kits and know they're gonna be worthless.

Lately I've been playing Trapper again. I just fart around, clear my challenges, and let everyone go.

Same friend, Skull Merchant is really fun!

Huntress!
Nothing more satisfying than back to back cross-map hatchets.
From playing with my friends, they also tell me that it is the most terrifying - which is nice. It's what DbD is all about! Terror, fear, adrenaline, and laughs!0
