    Plague main with Hag coming close second.

    I find them the most fun, contemplating getting pig next.

    Doc - because I love his maddened cackles, even when he gets stunned.

    Well, that and he looks so damn badass in his P3 outfit.

    Ghost face because his ability is really rewarding to use and fun to use when mind-gaming survivors.

    Wraith, Legion, Ghostface, and as soon as the new DLC comes to console, Demogorgon. I like Wraith and Ghostface's stealthier playstyles, and Legion is pretty fun.

    Spirit and Hag. Spirit because I'm in love with her mechanics and everything and Hag because I also love Hag.

    Trapper because he's the Jason proxy. Also because trapping a survivor gives me a good dopamine hit. Seriously, it's really satisfying.

    If people don't recognize quotes from TF2, then they really need to experience that piece of gaming culture.

    I'll still have to revoke your "internet person" card. Go to ms. pauling if you want it back.

    It's Team fortress 2.

    A team vs team first person shooter.

    Think overwatch, but better (fight me)

    It's free on steam.

    It's super fun.

    9 different classes to play, that change a lot depending on loadout.

    The characters are charismatic as #########.

    It's as memeable as anything can be.

    Quite deep mechanics.

    Lots of hats. Lots and lots of hats. Literally hats on top of hats.

    You can look for gameplay videos online to understand the game. But you can look for the official meet the team videos to understand the characters.

    Hell...I'll link it right here.

    If it is on PS4 then I might try it, btw I don’t play overwatch, I have Paladins. :P

    I know it's on xbox 360...maybe on xbone...

    Don't think it's on ps4... it's actually quite an old game, with a surprinsingly large playerbase

    to make it short:

    Team Fortress 2 is the best war themed hat simulator out there.

  • Boosted_Dwight

    Pig and Trapper. They're a lot of fun to play as 🐷

    Hag. Just always liked her power. Is super fun and I'm really good with her.

  • JetTheWaffleCat
    JetTheWaffleCat Member Posts: 284

    Huntress: There might be bad maps for her but she's still very fun to play. Throwing and hitting hatchets is probably the most rewarding feeling. The longer the distance, the more satisfaction.

    Ghostface: It's fun being sneaky and moving around like a ghost in the night. I personally run Nurse's since you won't always be able to get the exposed off. By the time they find out you're there it's too late.

    Spirit sadly...she’s not fun to go against but super fun to play as. She’s not really able to be bullied

    Hag because she’s strong regardless of the map. She’s kinda boring early game but once you get the first hook everybody drops like flies.

    Plague because I love her aesthetic and she is highly underrated. Plus I love puking on survivors

  • Dr_Loomis
    Dr_Loomis Member Posts: 3,703

    Trapper recently. Love that feeling of knowing a fleeing survivor is just about to run in to your carefully positioned trap...

  • VolantConch1719

    Doctor. Always enjoy playing him, even if the game goes horribly wrong. I really don't care about killing as much as I do messing with people. And he's got that laugh.

    After him, it would be Legion second. Yeah, they're not great, but I like chasing people like a crazed maniac wit a knife. With just a bit faster frenzy and vault speed, they could be somewhat effective.

    My third one is Hag, but honorable mention to Leatherface, who my constant dailies have driven him to one of my highest killers. I used to despise Hag, but she got buffed into a pure monster. I enjoy chasing people into minefields as her, and watching as they fall before me.

  • BBQnDemogorgon

    Soon Demogorgon because Stranger Things is my favorite show. Previously it was Legion because i enjoyed chaining hits.

  • Strange

    I started with Wraith but my main will be the dream demon, because it's the nightmare itself, the most badass and powerful lorewise, the good Freddy from our childhood.

    Myers and Freddy, because I only really play DbD for those two of my favorite childhood horror icons.

    (I also play F13, still, for the third icon.)

  • MonsterInMyMind
    MonsterInMyMind Member Posts: 2,744

    GhostFace because he's a fun killer and his stealth and tracking ability is really nice :D

    Myers, and soon, Ghostface.

    I play them because I feel sneeky and kill some unsuspecting survivors. But I plan on having a wide array of mains so more killers to play.

    I’m on an even split between ghostface and huntress. I have a bit more fun with ghostface though, it feels like I have way more control and I like sneaking up and one shotting or yoinking people off gens. It IS very satisfying to sling a hatchet off of bbq and hit someone across the map though

  • Akarate_Dolphin

    Clown/Huntress

    I just like their play style

  • PrincessPoop
    PrincessPoop Member Posts: 919

    I main Trapper when I want to have fun, because I love putting my traps in unconvential places and catching survivors.

    I main spirit when I want to win because she is extremely easy to play and super viable at high ranks. Some of her addons make her almost broken, throw on a mori and survivors literally stand no chance.

  • NullSp3c

    Legion, to farm bloodpoints.

  • ColonGlock

    Hag gets results and will always be my favorite. That being said, I play them all.

  • Guertena
    Guertena Member Posts: 392

    Pig because I love the franchise and because she slows the game down with the traps.

  • Sziosis
    Sziosis Member Posts: 198

    Piggy. Stealth is how I like to play and the Reverse Bear traps help slow the game down alot to mess around.


    Legion is second even after the nerf, because it's not always about killing everyone. Having fun is essential and what better way than stabbing everyone repeatedly?

  • UlvenDagoth
    UlvenDagoth Member Posts: 3,535

    Legion before the rework. No, not cause of the exploit or anything stupid like that. I liked running around and stabbing everyone. Now a days I still play Legion but they are NO WHERE near as fun as they used to be. They need help, and did back then. Not the massive nerf they got.


    Lately though, Ghost Face and Plague. Looking forward to Demo too.

    I'm a Legion Main. Probably because of the visual design of the character, music, and playstyle of just stabbin and vaultin and stabbin again... I just like making survivors panic.

    I originally mained Huntress until Legion came out though.

    Hill Billy


    I think its fun to just run in with your chainsaw and watch the survivors scurry away in horror as they think "Not another Billy". Honestly, he's just good fun, and he's very balanced.


    Otherwise Nurse. Cause... Nurse. I to like to "win" on occasion.

    I could main nurse but since I'm on PS4 and I'm also stuck at Rank 1 (every time) I only play spirit.

    My win/loss ratio with her is like 99% and I love making survivors salty and feel powerless against me. You can't bully my Rin ;) Of course the DCs are a bonus :P

  • MegMain98
    MegMain98 Member Posts: 2,919

    It’s not hard to win as Spirit. Survivors rarely escape against me unless I’m just playing like total garbage or I’m not trying.

    It’s why I don’t wanna play Spirit as much anymore. I only want to play her if I suspect a good group.

    I’ve played Spirit for a year and for every 100 games I probably lose like 5. I consider a loss where a survivor escapes through the exit gate. It’s extremely rare that I get all four escaping on me. That’s probably only happened like three times in my entire time playing Spirit.

    Legion because he is fast but after nerf some perks not work correct!
