What killer do you hate facing the most?

As a survivor, which killer do you loathe going up against the most? Freddy and the Pig are the two I hate. Freddy because you can't see which way he is coming at you, even when you hear the lullaby. He gets a free hit on you when he puts you to sleep because he's usually right on your ass as soon as he puts you under.

With the Pig, it seems to be more a case of people who play her rather than the actual character. I have found that the majority of Pig players, at the least the ones I face, they tend to camp and tunnel, and don't get the point of the head traps. They put a trap on your head, hook you. Then camp or tunnel you. You have a trap on your head. You are not a threat right now. You are not repairing gens. You are trying to get a trap off. Why put a trap on a survivor if you're just going to camp and tunnel. Its like if Trapper hooks someone, puts a bunch of traps around the hook, and then stands there and camps.

    The Pig, especially on certain maps, the Shape for same reasons. The Doctor is even worse on certain maps and probably the most op of all, especially when he has the Corroded Electrode addon giving him 25% more range. On the map with the 2 floors (research facility?) He just walks around the upper floor casting his ability and nails anyone on the lower floor and vice versa.

    The Hag when she cmaps a hooked survivor because she just tps around to the 2 closest gens near that hooked survivor meaning you'll never rescue nor get the gens working because she doesn't have to move.

    Nurse.
    Mostly because your own skill is rather irrelevant against a good Nurse.

    I dislike playing against Trapper too, not because I feel like he's unfair tho, like Nurse, but more because his traps are scary.

    Most people say that Doc is just the most annoying one but m8,..
    Nothing is more Paranoia-inducing like the Trapper since i cannot venture myself into tall grass without being overly careful.

    Billy.
    He can be looped sure but he has insane mobility, a one hit down and, BBQ. There is nothing fun about getting back-revved all game. He's the one killer that I feel required to loop against.

    I hate Leatherfaces. I can probably name just a couple of good encounters with them.
    Every single time I go against a Leatherface, they hardcamp, insidious camp, tunnel, BM, and/or whine at the endgame chat. I despise playing AS him, and I despise playing AGAINST him.
    Doctors for me are a more entertaining and enjoyable experience. I hate Leatherfaces with a burning passion.

    Usually trappers and Freddys make me want to just leave the game. Trappers make me worried about stepping on traps which makes the game slower. I don't know what's with freddys' but i can't stand them.

    Leatherface or Freddy. It seems like those two killers often give me the most headaches due to their tunnel-y nature. Not all of them do, I want to add!

    Oh it's not lag. That's an actual thing the doc can do with the absolute pixel perfect timing. People will fly back to the wrong side of the window. It's probably a bug that should be fixed

    Maybe we are thinking of different things. I'm talking about this which can be timed.

    Almost certainly Freddy and Doctor. I get Freddy is weak, but he's not easy to get away from. Doctor is self-explanatory.

    When I shock during mid animation the animation goes through ;D
    When I down,load sth in the backgroudn and shock during mid animation, then the survivor is snapped back

    I really hate going against the Doctor, mainly on the game because it almost feels like there is nowhere you can go. Other than that i feel every killer is unenjoyable to go against but thats the point of the game. You are supposed to feel worried and unsure of your fate.

    Leatherface. When I see him, it screams "boring game". Every LF game, it's always the same, you either:

    1-Loop him to death
    2-Get facecamped
    3-Don't see him the entire game because he's on someone else or just facecamping

    The Doctor and The Nightmare. There’s no in between, they’re both number 1 of which I hate versing.

    Theyre both not op or underpowered, they’re just annoying. 

    The doctor can find a survivor without even looking, and Freddy is kinda the same.

    Same for me, man. Despite him not being that strong, I don't like facing trapper due to constantly having to watch out for traps and the paranoia you mentioned.

  • Rjain
    Rjain Member Posts: 7

    Probably over 2000 hours in this game across multiple platforms... I hate going against Trapper. Fills me with dread when I see a trap at the start of a match. I waste so much time being wary of traps, just going against him is passively more effective than Hex: Ruin.

  • RavenKujikawa
    RavenKujikawa Member Posts: 1

    Freddy to be honest. I can work with other killers but he's just unbelievably irritating to go against regardless of how they play.

  • TheScarletPotion
    TheScarletPotion Member Posts: 46

    I can hold my own against most killers but Freddy is a killer I always moan at the sight of if your the first one hooked you are Freddy only priority for the rest of the match until you die since he can't really do anything with the other survivors its not the players fault just how his mechanic forces you to get use out of him.

    I hate going against Doc, on any map. I like playing him to farm blood points (shocking survivors ftw) but as survivor he can be a nightmare.

    A good Freddy or Myers can be pretty unnerving too. But there's still a looping chance so it's not too bad.

    For those scared of Trapper's traps, small game is your best friend. I run it fairly often as it makes it much easier to find hex totems or just totems for extra points. SG and UE together work really well for avoiding traps.

    Freddy I just honestly don't like what his playstyle encourages and how hard he tunnel. You also barely get any points from him that coupled with how survivors wrecklessly rescue someone off the hook literally 3 seconds after freddy hooked them. All make for a very boring and toxic experience for me.

    He's the only killer that I dc from regardless of if the Freddy is good or not, or if I was losing or winning.

    Doctors can be bad with certain builds and you essentially can't get away from him, breathing room is minimal and i can see how that can frustrate people. But he's okay I supposed.

    Doctor. He's annoying and tends to run builds meant to stall the game forever. After that, Trapper. Trappers tunnel and camp like crazy, they seem to be psychic and always know where you are and jumpscare you around corners more than Myers, and it's just annoying to have to keep an eye out for traps. I prefer the danger to come from the killer himself.

    Doctor and Trapper. It changes here and there but ultimately those two the most.

    Doctor because his screams legit just stress me out, I can't stand the constant, consistent screaming. Just aggravates me.

    Trapper not because he's OP or anything in any way, he's really weak...but like, I'm scared every patch of grass I walk in imma get trapped in.

    Hillbilly. I know it's an unpopular opinion but every time I hear that Chainsaw rev within the first 2 seconds of a match I end up sighing to myself "Here we go again". It may not be true but I feel like Billy games can easily become more boring than Doctor matches. Aside from Hillbilly, I like to run free, so against Trapper I suffer. I can understand-ish why some people hate facing Doc, but I've never really had an issue with him.
