Who has the best hit out of all killers?

In terms of the generic M1 attack so no chainsaws, hatchets, etc... Who in your opinion has the most satisfying M1 out of all the killers. For me its probably Leatherface, something about that meaty whack ;) with the hammer

    Freddy, pretty sure he has the longest m1 reach in the game and it's satisfying when you get the hit with the point of the claw, and then when he swipes the claws together, too good.

    Clown, don't like the killer that much but the knife flip...

    Myers. I love that big knife.

    His T3 lunge is one of the greatest things in the game, too.

    Spirit or trapper, dunno love the trapper sound effects and come on, a sword magically disassembling is freaking cool

    Legion tbh.

    Amanda's ambush just because of the retracting blade

    If you're talking about generic m1 hit then I would say clown who probably has the most visually appealing m1 recovery animation after the hitting Survivor

    Huntress gets 1st place for me. That 2 handed swing along with the yell feels so powerful and full of bad intentions lmao.

    2nd place goes to LF. It reminds me of him whacking that guy (Kirk) in the original '74 movie. That's when he's revealed, so it's twice as memorable.

    Michael and his blood dripping P3 knife.

    Close second is Clown with the knife twirl and his jolly laugh.

    Probably Clown because of his laugh and knife twirl.

    Somewhere between Hag and Demogorgon

    Hag and Freddy have the longest m1 reach. So I’d say both of them.

    Huntress :)

    Leatherface because I like how he just shakes it to clean off the blood since his other hand is holding the chainsaw and can’t wipe like other killers(except Freddy and hag)

    Spirit or Bubba.

    It just feels right.

  • GrootDude
    GrootDude Member Posts: 14,110

    Bubba and clown, any other killer is irrelevant for me.

    Leatherface has a pretty nice hammer-shake after the hit.

    But Clown takes the trophy with his kickass knife tricks 😄

    His reach is the same but its deceptive because he is a lot smaller than some of the other killers. It is definitely satisfyng to constitently get hits where you can tell the survivor didn't think it was going to happen- so he gets my vote for best M1 still.

    Legion

    In terms of style, I gotta say Freddy, Legion, Huntress and Clown.

    Freddy has a nice little finger flick that he does.

    Legion just seems fluid.

    Huntress really takes care of her hatchet.

    Clown just looks really good.


    Of utility, I got to say the spirit. Just forming it from the pieces buried in her is so satisfying to watch. Her putting it away so quickly is also fun to watch.

    Pig when using the drill. The whirring noise is so soothing...

    Not gonna lie, Legion's swing feels really good kinda like how some people like Freddy's lunge. The animation after is solid as well. Freddy is 1st and Legion is 2nd in my book. Clown's feels really meh to me but the animation and sound after a hit is good.

    Demogorgon without doubt!!

    1. Overall - Freddy. His swipe is nice and the way his fingers snickety snick is nice too.
    2. Successful hit wipe up animation - Ghostface. I like how it harkens back to the movie.

    The Demogorgon. Its not the hit itself that i like but the cooldown. Before the cooldowns on most killers were really uninteresting. Wiping blood, examining the weapon, etc. However with DemoDaddy he unleashes a mighty RAWR that lets the survivor filth know that he is the one in charge!
