Any way to find out stats for number of Killers playing?

Just curious to see how many people have been playing Killer over the past few months leading up until now; and if the theory that people around the world are playing Killer less now is true or false (due to the massive wait times as Survivor).


I know that I have switched sides in the past month, but I'm wondering if the current state of the game has forced others to do the same due to the frequent 'reworks' and nerfs that Killers have been handed since August which has caused more pressure and stress to those playing the role.


I believe that it is crucial to know this so we can see the true extent of the game health for Dead by Daylight, and what it might look like going forward into Q1 and Q2 2020.

    Before the long que times for survivor, there were long que times for killers. It kinda just goes back and forth. Especially with the archive challenges, more people will be playing survivor now most likely.

    1 reason being that survivor challenges require you to get into a game with other good survivors, not a tryhard killer, and a lucky game.

    another reason being there are a lot of potato survivors who have a very hard time doing these challenges

    i spent so many games just trying to get that unhook 1 person during endgame challenge. But with the killer challenges, I got them in 1 game or as fast as I could, because I control how the game goes and can complete them easier. With survivor challenges I can’t so they require more games, more games = less killers
