What "main" am I?

Okay, so I have have been trying to figure this out for quite a while now, some insight from both sides would be appreciated.

When I first started playing, had been following and watching the game since it was first released (console player aka pre-ordered IMMEDIATELY), so the first thing I choose to do is play survivor. Really enjoyed it, and for the better part of 6 months, only played killer once every 30 games or so.
However, when I did play the killer, I would DESTROY. I wasn't watching pros or anything either. I was watching mainly Achievement Hunter and Funhaus play.
So, decided after those first 6 months and prestiging my survivor a couple of times that I would work on killers, cause why not.

My stats as of writing this are:
- A single survivor at III-50 (my play style is stealth, so no DS or SH), with an average rank of 16-15.
- Two killers at 50 (no prestige), as well as ones at 40, 35, 30 and 20 respectively. Average killer rank 10-9.

I have fun playing as both. Depending on the day, can play as either one. The main reason I have not prestiged my killers is because I feel no need. I got the prestige achievements with my survivor, don't feel its worth doing again for a bloody top.

    Lol, Funhaus didn't play a lot, but Adam as Killer was ######### amazing: "Hi." Survivor gets slashed to the ground
    I see you said you pre-ordered immediately. Which means you got it day 1. Day 1 means everyone's learning. Everyone learning means they suck.
    To me, you're definitely a Survivor main who plays Killer sometimes. Nothing wrong with that, that's just how i see it.

    I did preorder, but I play killer regularly now. Probably about on par with my survivor. Like, early days when it got released, I barely played the killer. Its only in the past 5-6 months that I decided to have a crack and from the beginning, being the killer was WAY easier than being survivor. Even as I get into the mid-higher ranks. I still have fun, but I challenge myself by mixing up killers and perks and am usually successful.

    Probably making more of a case for killer main at the moment, but just trying to provide as much info as possible.

    If you have had physiological damage from survivors as killer you are probably a killer main. But if you have done physiological to a killer then probably survivor main.

    ...... Wot.

    You mean like receive salt after a match? Pretty much every game haha but the community is a lot more toxic on the console versions, so I think if anything its just normal.

    I just imagine the players I killed (that send hate messages) are predominantly Fortnight players 😂

    You know, the world isn't divided between killer and survivor mains. I for example enjoy a lot more playing killer, but I play survivor a bit more because for playing killer I need the right mindset to play well. Should I be considered a survivor main? Not at all.
    The point is, you can just be a player that enjoys both the roles instead of sticking to just one and have no clue of what it's like on the other side.

    Just say that you play DBD and call it that. They're two different type of games. When I'm playing survivor, I'm a survivor main and the killer is a bot as far as I'm concerned. When I play killer, I'm a killer main and survivors are pesky mosquitoes that I must swat!
    I play both equally and I like both games just as much.. as different as they are.

    There is an easy system to check whether you are survivor or killer main
    Do you think killers are too weak?
    Yes => killer main
    No => survivor main

    i'm a killer main. i'm sure of it.... i see the killer side on issues and i play killer 90% of the time. i play survivor occasionally but its not much fun. most of the time i just feel sidelined.... here i am fixing a gen while somewhere else has some real exciting ######### going down.... lame.... but as a killer, i know wherever i am thats the MOST exciting part of the map. even if i'm just scaring birds and kicking gens.... killers rock. and killing beats the hell out of 'generator repair simulator'.... :D

    I love how people who play this game are so quick to want a label slapped on them. Killer main? Survivor main? Who cares?
