Wraith is *the killer* that i hate the most as a survivor. It's not much related to his power but the fact that literally 90% of wraith players i see are noed killers who camp at the hook and hard hard tunnel. So now every time i hear his bell i'm like "fuck, not again"
I think that it's because he's one of the free killers you get, and since Trapper sucks balls, Nurse is hard AF to learn, and Huntress requires you to be something of a good FPS player...Wraith is the most convenient noob killer to play. This means that people will be unskilled using him usually, and have to resort to bullshit tactics even when other opportunities present themselves, like, seeing another person that they could chase...but they're unsure of their skills, so they commit to the person that they know they CAN down vs. taking the risk, losing, and learning to be better.
Yeah it's so common for Wraith matches to just be awful. I do play Wraith sometimes on my own but I practically only play Rancor Roulette with him. Three out of four survivors love it!
@@Feenecks I had a game like literally 2 days ago or something with my friend in comms, and a Wraith was chasing a random. I had not been hit or on hook yet, so I deliberately tried to get his attention, even LITERALLY body blocking but he ran past me to keep tunneling the guy on death hook, straight up giving up a free down basically lol. That's how hard he tunneled this dude. Literally every wraith I get is like that. I can't even remember the last time I got a wraith that DID NOT deliberately tunnel from the get go. As a killer, I understand, if a good player is in a spot and I need pressure, I tunnel. But it's a desperation thing, where I can't get the game stabilized any other way. It's not my go to, straight out of the gate tactic. I only do it if I absolutely need to, or, if they do something unbelievably stupid like staying near me when I have starstruck on, and just don't get the hint to stay away...I'm not going to give up a free down, obviously. Most of the time I don't even have to resort to tunnelling but yeah holy shit dude literally just tunneled this poor Jake out of the match when my friend and I tried to relieve the pressure lmfao. I usually don't bring flashlights: medkits or toolboxes usually but it's really making me want to equip flashbang just for that kind of situation.
When Nemesis lunges and misses, he honestly looks like Superman punching. Cracks me up every time. And when Michael or Demo drop down from a building when vaulting, idk, something about it is hilarious to me. The way they look, it's just goofy as hell.
Completely agree that Nemesis is goofy/funny. When he misses his basic M1, the animation just looks like he’s saying “Aw shucks”. I laugh every time and it gets me hit.
I main Pinhead and I enjoy it because its almost a different game mode. The match is about you vs the survivors fighting for control of the box. If your not playing around the box he's just a killer with a sub par power.

@@ornacia2666 Breaking chains only happens around a corner. There is plenty of loops where you can use it without issue. Plus his power is miles better than clown's since they slow vault windows and pallets rather than mid or fast vault. Its not very difficult to use his power and its definitely easier than huntress, as long as you spawn the chain on the survivor it should pretty much be a guaranteed hit.

It's like a gamemode for me too. Like a "final death match" mode where u gotta loop your heart out cause you know you're only gonna get one chance and I find that insanely fun haha
I didn't even know Nemesis had a rep as a "tunneling" killer. The t-bags make more sense now. I mostly play him for the tricky whip shots and because he's the closest thing I'm gonna get to a pet class (besides Knight but that's too evil).
@@dc8836 No, actually. You get LESS upgrade progress for whipping someone that's already infected. If you want to level it fast, whip different targets.
When I first started playing blight I used to use all the broken add ons like compound and Alc ring, now I just play blighted crow and rat because speed is fun
as the only living legion main, i have to point out that they do have some mindgames you can play when it comes to using their vault. it's the little stuff, like backing up after standing under a palette only to vault it and get your hit in that makes my brain produce dopamine. plus, you can bodyblock by vaulting a palette, which is pretty rad.
The other day I had a scratch mirror myers in rpd and it was probably the funnest game I’ve had in a while just because he understood he was going against 4 other people so he was just trying to make the game fun and get jump scares on us 😂😂 Ik that’s not the standard it’s the exception but that game was pretty memorable for me
About nemesis, you can actually hit over windows if the survivor crouches. Its a tech that works in all tile windows and some main buildings. Doesn't work in shack unless theres some prop from the map that increases the survivor height like trash from auto heaven. Maybe I'll make a reddit post teaching people about it, Im the one made the video about his hitbox coming top to bottom
I like playing as The Knight and the main reasons for this are his unique power that allows him to pressure 2 parts of the map at once, I also love his visual and sound design.
I loved old ruin Undying meta with Freddy and tinkerer for the jumpscare if they're awake, just go for chases on anyone around gens and go for hooks, ruin would reward chasing them off gens vs camping/tunneling
Dredge is easily my S tier fun killer. Most people seem to miss his macro-gameplay with Nightfall, especially while someone is hooked and survivors are forced to take an action, and utilizing your stealth/insta teleports to cut off routes and create panic as people try to recover/save. Survivors very often aren't ready to run into you if you teleport ahead to a locker they can't hear/appear in front of them. Specifically revealing I have Devour Hope during Nightfall is by far the greatest time in the game, ambushing from the darkness while they desperately try to find the totem while not being able to see shit. That shit is glorious. Very obvious lockers next to gens being locked is honestly a small grief point that isn't difficult to circumvent, as shifting your routing a bit further away and breaking certain ones as you naturally move removes a lot of that frustration. One mistake I think a lot of people make is hyperfocusing on the teleport, or doing it too often, and not actually patrolling normally enough to punish people out of position/break a few useful locks in the meantime. If you do happen to get a bad locker map, you just gotta re-adjust your playstyle and ambush from weird angles from the ones you do have, there's definitely a skill ceiling there I enjoy. Smaller point, Dredge has a very easy time finding the 4th survivor to 4k, since you can abuse your 3rd kill for a few moments, keep them slugged, and sit in a locker next to them to activate Nightfall before hooking them. If the 4th guy does decide to come pick up, they die. If not, you're now the fastest killer in the game to either find hatch 1st or hear their heartbeat.
I like the sounds that Knight and the guards make. Also big sword = cool. Playing nice as Knight is also the easiest compliment farm in the world(next to memeing as nurse or blight), "
I genuinely love going against Nemi. My first dbd match as survivor was against him and my first game of looping a killer til they gave up was against Nemi, i like him lots dodging the tentacle is fun.
As a former Freddy main the reason I loved playing as him was the teleport. It allows to do some Interesting fakes, when chasing a good survivor you can just switch to a new one instantly, using the teleport in chase is EXTREMELY satisfying, after hooking you can just tp to a gen and start a chase, you can put dream snares thru walls allowing for a little bit of engagement, when going against pepegas they usually run into you because of the lullaby. I also like going against him as i know whether or not I can make another loop with my xp with the snares.
im happy scott recognizes to extreme fun in sniper artist gameplay, thats the only correct way to play her imo. i usually dont even shotgun with her (unless theres direct los), i send a single bird to injure a swarmed survivor, so its even more high risk, but the satisfaction is also greater when my prediction is correct and i get an injure/down
About what you say for the Nurse, that's why I have a lot of fun to be honest with her : you can do anything with her. You want to have the strongest build ever and destroy the survivors ? You can (and most do). You want to have an Undetectable/Oblivious build and do some jumpscares on in-doors map ? You can (I freaking love doing it). You can even play blinkless (or almost) and be an M1 Killer, it's still fun imo ^^
For your enjoyment of the game, I'm glad you aren't stuck in MMR hell like I am where half the killers are Weskers who've gotten good enough that you can't really loop against him while your teammates have apparently played a collective 5 games of DBD and will do no gens and on the off chance they do gens while you're being chased they all get off of them as soon as the Wesker inevitably decides to camp you at 5 gens. If they decide to leave, they will go just far enough away that they can come back to the hook with both bounds in time to completely ignore the unhooker and tunnel. Each day I'll get like one game while I'm not annoyed by anything and I'll be in the zone and loop the killer until they leave me, but if I'm against Wesker or a killer decides to needlessly be a dick to someone, I get annoyed enough that I'll keep playing the slot machine that is match making even though I know I'm never going to have a good chase or game after that
IMO going against a mediocre Nurse - someone who has a general idea of blink distances but is less familiar with how her power works around obstacles & isn't as good at winning mindgames - is one of the funnest things in DBD. the types of mindgames you can use against those kind-of-new-but-not-super-experienced nurse players are different from everything else in the game and I love that variety you don't see anywhere else its far more frequent the nurse player is either good or bad, though, so overall i have to agree with your placement here.
Really good list overall honestly, I'd move Artist, Spirit, and Demo further up B tier and potentially even A, move Plague to B but just barely bc I think playing against her in solo queue suffers a ton, and I'd move Oni to S, Huntress to S and Wesker to A. Really solid list overall and these are obv my personal changes, great vid
What you said about knowing when Huntress will likely go for a cross map can apply directly to Artist. There are particular times she's launching birds, post-hook is a typical play for all Artist types
Couldn't have said it better myself as a Dredge main. And yeah, this adds up. I think Twins should be in B and Nurse should be in D, but maybe that's because I haven't played as either of them as much. No further questions, Your Honor
I main Artist and enjoy going for snipes. I rarely even shotgun birds at range unless I really want a confirm. Usually, I go single shots cause it's quicker. I go no add-ons to practise, and have lots of map pressure. Aura reads help facilitate it too. If I do go anti-loop it's more cause I am pushed to that. Been looking to try Singularity as well cause range and map control reasons too
Ive had like dozens of trials in solo queue survivor since SIngularity was released and Ive seen him maybe once, havent seen Twins for months and months
Honestly never understood how people can hate playing against a killer as a whole, there's so many different playstyles, and not everyone is going to play the exact same. I don't personally have a killer below B tier in terms of enjoyment to face.
So the part of Artist that you like is the thing that makes us Artist mains Artist mains. Based Scott. I knew there was an Artist main in you somewhere 😂
I say this every time I get the occasion to, but Trapper is extremely fun to go against imo, his power at least. (basement Trapper is the worst thing), he's the only non stealth killer that forces you to be careful with your movement, the constant feel of fear of stepping into a trap is thrilling. Being chased and having nothing left so you just go to the nearest window saying "I don't know if he trapped that window, fuck it, that's all I have!" is very fun!
Solid Nurse take. Nurse has become a palette cleanser to me, especially if I decide on aura reading perks. It feels like straight cheating with aura reading; it needs attention, 6% reduced duration or something. Anyway, if I get a series of bad matches, or just have a break from WilsonBuilds, I'll pull out Nurse Versing Nurse has a curve: _Baby Nurses_ aren't exciting to face (but, are adorable). _Expert Nurses_ aren't too exciting, there really isn't much to be done against that. It's the _Intermediate Nurse_ I find the most fun to face, where she's almost figured out another level of survivor pathing against her. Feels like you can still mind-game with her
I agree with a lot of this list but I have some counterpoints (that are also mostly just my justifications for my opinions) mostly on killers I play as/mained in the past or like playing against as survivor. Wraith could be put another tier up because I find the window and pallet minigame some survivors do to be fun (quick vaulting it so they can't break/vault and also sitting at a pallet playing chicken to make the wraith fully uncloak). I always have a super interactive and fun chase with Wraith because of using that type of stuff to my advantage on either side. Hag I think has much more counterplay than most people think at loops and I find the game of chicken with the traps to be fun. Like yeah it's a 50/50 but not necessarily always depending on the scenario and if you are ballsy enough to run right through a trap or not. Couldn't agree more on legion. Another point i'd bring up is that frenzy isn't always a free hit and the easiest games i've ever played on legion were when people just let me hit them and ignored frenzy entirely. There are loads of window/pallet jukes and tech you can do to avoid getting hit by a legion in frenzy (which sets them back massively) I also agree on Artist and think there's much more counterplay to "throw bird down at loop and get free hit" than people think. It's similar to hag to me but a little more fun cause sometimes the birds aren't a hit even when they hit you. I can understand where you put Singularity but I personally as a current Hux main would put him higher. I think there's much more counterplay on survivor side once you understand the exact mechanics of his overclock and drones through playing as him. There's loads of little tricks I manage to use against them on survivor that wastes loads of time. But I can understand if we're taking the average player experience into account.
I personally find Legion fun too, but on both sides. As killer, running fast and stabbing survivors is fun, and nothing feels better than getting that fifth hit while you know the rest of their team is mending, making no progress on the generators. On the survivor side, splitting up and knowing when you need to make distance early is pretty fun. Since scratch marks are gone in frenzy, if you're the first in a chain and they don't frenzy right behind you, you can do some dumb play and they'll have no idea where you went. Combo this with certain perks that are fun to use but not all that impactful (such as autodidact) and Legion games can prove to be really interesting. Legion is also one of the few killers in the game that has good power synergy with an extensive amount of perks. Terror radius perks, injury perks, gen kick perks, stun perks, exhaustion perks... They all can be used to some extent. Demogorgon is another killer that can build up significantly different sets, but Legion takes that to another level. I think the problem most people have is that they're too caught up on meta perks and have no creativity. Most Legion's run gen slowdown, and most survivors run second chance perks. Slowdown Legion is boring for survivors, and second chance is boring for Legion. But when you have an overly altruistic build as survivor, Legion's frequent injuries let your build shine. When Legion runs an exhaustion build, he'll have some of the quickest chases imaginable.
For Knight, assassin hits are so satisfying to get! Take treated blade (+1 assassin), dried horsemeat (+4 seconds chase) and if u predict survivor position correctly, it's pretty much guaranteed hit + deep wound, unless they reach a banner. So the only thing u have is to make sure survivor runs far away from banner and then u can go and harass another survivor. Wreaking havoc on these rabbits was never as fun!
kinda glossed over Pyramidheads cage camping being nerfed but I guess it's still pretty much the same, except you need double range to be far enough away for a double hit out of cage
I'd disagree about playing legion. I also like going against him cause you can spin him and he makes the little argh sound if he misses, plus legion chicken, but getting a down after 4 stabs is SO satisfying, not to mention running around the map fast as shit is very fun.
I'm a Pyramid Head main and I fucking love going for those prediction shots. Even if I throw the game trying to predict a survivor, I still enjoy doing it. I love getting cheeky Nowhere to Hide hits on hidden survivors, I've even managed to double punish survivors with I'm all Ears and Lethal Pursuer! Only downside is when survivors gen rush me so hard when I only have chase aura reading perks and they have all the second chance perks in the world on busted maps. Thats why lately I've been running at least 1 slowdown perk as well as 3 aura reading perks instead of all 4 being aura reading perks.
I'm a no add-on Blight in fact I play killer with no add-on's all the time well one exception that would be speed limiter Leatherface for farming off course usually during events.
My top killers in terms of enjoyment based on both sides are, oni, dredge, blight, wesker and huntress. Singularity comes close but emps are a little too annoying on killer side.
I know this is a bit late but I played singularity again and realized why I really don't enjoy him that much. I'm on console and it really is just way too hard for very little in return. When I play Wesker or Huntress and manage to aim my power perfectly it always guarantees a hit, so I can have my moments or get lucky at times and play the rest of the game as an M1 killer and do just fine. But as Singularity, one succesful use of your power, aka slipstreaming someone is just one of many things leading to a hit, it is not enough if I can pull it off 5/10 times, I need to get these hard mechanical movements right 9 or 10/10 times to even be in the game, and on top of that play well in general.
I used to run exclusive no addon Shadow/Chili blight and it was super fun. Only reason i stopped was i felt i had hit a point where survivors were consistently too strong to beat that way, so instead of crutching on perks i just started using speed
I honestly dont see the issue with the speed addons. C33, Blight Tag, and Alch ring are so much stronger. the main thing the speed does is let you land some hits on window vaults survs think they can make it too, but they can also learn how fast you are and fake it next time. Also the loops where there is a long thin line of objects between you and the surv where you could try rushing from your side to theirs and try flicking into a it lets you do that more consistently. Much better than everyone is hindered because you pressed your power button once, or rushing immediately after a hit.
10:40 I will slightly disagree here. Playing against a bubba who plays normally until he can insidious camp someone in the basement is really boring to go against. It's just kinda like "Well that guy is dead now, cool." Playing against a bubba who goes into the basement right off the bat and insidious camps the basement chest is hilarious. When someone goes down there to touch his stuff and dies I always laugh my ass off.
23:30 While it might be annoying to go against, PLAYING as Blight with double speed addons is fun as shit. You can legit jump over the entire RPD lobby to get to the main gen and it is a legit jumpscare. You can even jump over the holes in the Game too, it's super fun if you know the speed required to do it.
I find it so unfortunate that there's so little counterplay to Knight's guards, as a Knight player. Of course, the 3-gen playstyle is boring so focusing on chasing people down and micromanaging where you send your guards to cut people off or occupy a second survivor while you're chasing one is SUPER fun and I wish survivors had more to do vs the guards other than just... run
I was honestly all about this list til you put wesker in s tier. Guy is the bottom of the bottom. He’s right there with knight and trickster. Almost an instant DC.
D tier freddy rip😭there is no better feeling in this game to me than watching a survivor throw a fake pallet onto me and i just sit there and give them the lightskin stare before i smack em
Im not the biggest pinhead fan but i will say, every once in awhile when i play him, i really enjoy the macro game of the box. No other killer really has a similar macro game. The chain shot is kinda meh though.
23:35 hi yeah we've seen blights not run one of those sure it's us on the rare occasion we play him but shh it counts we use rose tonic and soul chemical because we suck
I hate wesker so much, i want dc every time i see him, bs grabs after you dropped pallet, stupid infection that helps him if you loop him for too long, insane terror radius so you never know how close he is. And i noticed they play like nurses, hardcore tunneling with 4 slowdown perks.
I find the best way to use Pinhead's active power is to just place it in front of whoever you're chasing, immediately fire, and hope to whatever god you worship that the chains don't spawn at shit angles, because otherwise it's just not worth using at all.
I hate playing against plague because the vomiting reminds me of when my mum was dying from chemo… my least favourite character to go against for that reason I wish they would make accessibility options to make the vomit less vomit-y looking
I agree with you on a lot of them. I think Nemesis could be higher though 🤔 He's my goto if I want to blow off some steam. I main Oni so I'm glad to see him in A 😁
Not even joking when I say I might be the best in the world at countering Dslinger, I’ve got in the heads of like 99 out of 100 of them I’ve played against, I just know exactly when they’re gonna shoot based on just environmental awareness, you get a taste for guessing
Bubba best boi should be in S regardless of the weird ones. I’m weird too lol. Getting tunneled by a nemesis feels natural and face camping bubba is kinda enjoyable. ❤ W take
You knock blight down from S to B because the reality is most people use OP shit on blight and that makes it unfun for you. The reality of playing against Wesker is that they proxy camp, tunnel and slug. Even you acknowledge that the hinder persisting after hook in Weskers power encourages tunneling.

as the only living legion main, i have to point out that they do have some mindgames you can play when it comes to using their vault. it's the little stuff, like backing up after standing under a palette only to vault it and get your hit in that makes my brain produce dopamine. plus, you can bodyblock by vaulting a palette, which is pretty rad.
Any idea if Any means nessesary works to 😢block legion vaulting?
@@themurderofcoke 90% sure it doesn't I think I tried once but it didn't work, however, I might not remember correctly
The other day I had a scratch mirror myers in rpd and it was probably the funnest game I’ve had in a while just because he understood he was going against 4 other people so he was just trying to make the game fun and get jump scares on us 😂😂 Ik that’s not the standard it’s the exception but that game was pretty memorable for me
About nemesis, you can actually hit over windows if the survivor crouches. Its a tech that works in all tile windows and some main buildings. Doesn't work in shack unless theres some prop from the map that increases the survivor height like trash from auto heaven. Maybe I'll make a reddit post teaching people about it, Im the one made the video about his hitbox coming top to bottom
Playing against Freddy is one of the DbD experiences of all time. No once will convince me otherwise. (Along with Trickster and SM)
I like playing as The Knight and the main reasons for this are his unique power that allows him to pressure 2 parts of the map at once, I also love his visual and sound design.
Knights fun af, very unique killer.
I loved old ruin Undying meta with Freddy and tinkerer for the jumpscare if they're awake, just go for chases on anyone around gens and go for hooks, ruin would reward chasing them off gens vs camping/tunneling
Dredge is easily my S tier fun killer.
Most people seem to miss his macro-gameplay with Nightfall, especially while someone is hooked and survivors are forced to take an action, and utilizing your stealth/insta teleports to cut off routes and create panic as people try to recover/save.
Survivors very often aren't ready to run into you if you teleport ahead to a locker they can't hear/appear in front of them.
Specifically revealing I have Devour Hope during Nightfall is by far the greatest time in the game, ambushing from the darkness while they desperately try to find the totem while not being able to see shit. That shit is glorious.
Very obvious lockers next to gens being locked is honestly a small grief point that isn't difficult to circumvent, as shifting your routing a bit further away and breaking certain ones as you naturally move removes a lot of that frustration.
One mistake I think a lot of people make is hyperfocusing on the teleport, or doing it too often, and not actually patrolling normally enough to punish people out of position/break a few useful locks in the meantime. If you do happen to get a bad locker map, you just gotta re-adjust your playstyle and ambush from weird angles from the ones you do have, there's definitely a skill ceiling there I enjoy.
Smaller point, Dredge has a very easy time finding the 4th survivor to 4k, since you can abuse your 3rd kill for a few moments, keep them slugged, and sit in a locker next to them to activate Nightfall before hooking them. If the 4th guy does decide to come pick up, they die. If not, you're now the fastest killer in the game to either find hatch 1st or hear their heartbeat.
I like the sounds that Knight and the guards make. Also big sword = cool.
Playing nice as Knight is also the easiest compliment farm in the world(next to memeing as nurse or blight), "
I wish I went against friendly nurse and blights… they always just sweat for a 4K like their life depends on it 🥴.
I genuinely love going against Nemi. My first dbd match as survivor was against him and my first game of looping a killer til they gave up was against Nemi, i like him lots dodging the tentacle is fun.
As a former Freddy main the reason I loved playing as him was the teleport. It allows to do some Interesting fakes, when chasing a good survivor you can just switch to a new one instantly, using the teleport in chase is EXTREMELY satisfying, after hooking you can just tp to a gen and start a chase, you can put dream snares thru walls allowing for a little bit of engagement, when going against pepegas they usually run into you because of the lullaby. I also like going against him as i know whether or not I can make another loop with my xp with the snares.
Scott: I play all these killers good way, but no one else does so C tier.
im happy scott recognizes to extreme fun in sniper artist gameplay, thats the only correct way to play her imo. i usually dont even shotgun with her (unless theres direct los), i send a single bird to injure a swarmed survivor, so its even more high risk, but the satisfaction is also greater when my prediction is correct and i get an injure/down
Me and my friend did this last night for both as and against killers (2 separate tier lists), what wonderful timing
About what you say for the Nurse, that's why I have a lot of fun to be honest with her : you can do anything with her. You want to have the strongest build ever and destroy the survivors ? You can (and most do). You want to have an Undetectable/Oblivious build and do some jumpscares on in-doors map ? You can (I freaking love doing it). You can even play blinkless (or almost) and be an M1 Killer, it's still fun imo ^^
For your enjoyment of the game, I'm glad you aren't stuck in MMR hell like I am where half the killers are Weskers who've gotten good enough that you can't really loop against him while your teammates have apparently played a collective 5 games of DBD and will do no gens and on the off chance they do gens while you're being chased they all get off of them as soon as the Wesker inevitably decides to camp you at 5 gens. If they decide to leave, they will go just far enough away that they can come back to the hook with both bounds in time to completely ignore the unhooker and tunnel.
Each day I'll get like one game while I'm not annoyed by anything and I'll be in the zone and loop the killer until they leave me, but if I'm against Wesker or a killer decides to needlessly be a dick to someone, I get annoyed enough that I'll keep playing the slot machine that is match making even though I know I'm never going to have a good chase or game after that
IMO going against a mediocre Nurse - someone who has a general idea of blink distances but is less familiar with how her power works around obstacles & isn't as good at winning mindgames - is one of the funnest things in DBD. the types of mindgames you can use against those kind-of-new-but-not-super-experienced nurse players are different from everything else in the game and I love that variety you don't see anywhere else
its far more frequent the nurse player is either good or bad, though, so overall i have to agree with your placement here.
Really good list overall honestly, I'd move Artist, Spirit, and Demo further up B tier and potentially even A, move Plague to B but just barely bc I think playing against her in solo queue suffers a ton, and I'd move Oni to S, Huntress to S and Wesker to A. Really solid list overall and these are obv my personal changes, great vid
What you said about knowing when Huntress will likely go for a cross map can apply directly to Artist. There are particular times she's launching birds, post-hook is a typical play for all Artist types
I was hoping there’d be a tier specifically for skull merchant added to the bottom
Stepping into a trap is one of the worst feelings in the game, trapping someone is one of the best feelings.
I play no add-on Blight only, because I hate how powerful he is with add-ons so I hope the survs I go against are happy.
Couldn't have said it better myself as a Dredge main. And yeah, this adds up.
I think Twins should be in B and Nurse should be in D, but maybe that's because I haven't played as either of them as much.
No further questions, Your Honor
I main Artist and enjoy going for snipes. I rarely even shotgun birds at range unless I really want a confirm. Usually, I go single shots cause it's quicker. I go no add-ons to practise, and have lots of map pressure. Aura reads help facilitate it too. If I do go anti-loop it's more cause I am pushed to that.
Been looking to try Singularity as well cause range and map control reasons too
Ive had like dozens of trials in solo queue survivor since SIngularity was released and Ive seen him maybe once, havent seen Twins for months and months
Honestly never understood how people can hate playing against a killer as a whole, there's so many different playstyles, and not everyone is going to play the exact same. I don't personally have a killer below B tier in terms of enjoyment to face.
"They have one and a half seconds to react to you before they die, which means they're gonna die..." yeah that sums it up
There is nothing more satisfying than that hearty *snap* from a bear trap. :)
So the part of Artist that you like is the thing that makes us Artist mains Artist mains. Based Scott.
I knew there was an Artist main in you somewhere 😂
I say this every time I get the occasion to, but Trapper is extremely fun to go against imo, his power at least. (basement Trapper is the worst thing), he's the only non stealth killer that forces you to be careful with your movement, the constant feel of fear of stepping into a trap is thrilling. Being chased and having nothing left so you just go to the nearest window saying "I don't know if he trapped that window, fuck it, that's all I have!" is very fun!
Solid Nurse take. Nurse has become a palette cleanser to me, especially if I decide on aura reading perks. It feels like straight cheating with aura reading; it needs attention, 6% reduced duration or something. Anyway, if I get a series of bad matches, or just have a break from WilsonBuilds, I'll pull out Nurse
Versing Nurse has a curve: _Baby Nurses_ aren't exciting to face (but, are adorable). _Expert Nurses_ aren't too exciting, there really isn't much to be done against that. It's the _Intermediate Nurse_ I find the most fun to face, where she's almost figured out another level of survivor pathing against her. Feels like you can still mind-game with her
On my way to trying the stand still Huntress tech, would’ve never occurred to me lolololol
I agree with a lot of this list but I have some counterpoints (that are also mostly just my justifications for my opinions) mostly on killers I play as/mained in the past or like playing against as survivor.
Wraith could be put another tier up because I find the window and pallet minigame some survivors do to be fun (quick vaulting it so they can't break/vault and also sitting at a pallet playing chicken to make the wraith fully uncloak). I always have a super interactive and fun chase with Wraith because of using that type of stuff to my advantage on either side.
Hag I think has much more counterplay than most people think at loops and I find the game of chicken with the traps to be fun. Like yeah it's a 50/50 but not necessarily always depending on the scenario and if you are ballsy enough to run right through a trap or not.
Couldn't agree more on legion. Another point i'd bring up is that frenzy isn't always a free hit and the easiest games i've ever played on legion were when people just let me hit them and ignored frenzy entirely. There are loads of window/pallet jukes and tech you can do to avoid getting hit by a legion in frenzy (which sets them back massively)
I also agree on Artist and think there's much more counterplay to "throw bird down at loop and get free hit" than people think. It's similar to hag to me but a little more fun cause sometimes the birds aren't a hit even when they hit you.
I can understand where you put Singularity but I personally as a current Hux main would put him higher. I think there's much more counterplay on survivor side once you understand the exact mechanics of his overclock and drones through playing as him. There's loads of little tricks I manage to use against them on survivor that wastes loads of time. But I can understand if we're taking the average player experience into account.
I personally find Legion fun too, but on both sides. As killer, running fast and stabbing survivors is fun, and nothing feels better than getting that fifth hit while you know the rest of their team is mending, making no progress on the generators.
On the survivor side, splitting up and knowing when you need to make distance early is pretty fun. Since scratch marks are gone in frenzy, if you're the first in a chain and they don't frenzy right behind you, you can do some dumb play and they'll have no idea where you went. Combo this with certain perks that are fun to use but not all that impactful (such as autodidact) and Legion games can prove to be really interesting.
Legion is also one of the few killers in the game that has good power synergy with an extensive amount of perks. Terror radius perks, injury perks, gen kick perks, stun perks, exhaustion perks... They all can be used to some extent. Demogorgon is another killer that can build up significantly different sets, but Legion takes that to another level.
I think the problem most people have is that they're too caught up on meta perks and have no creativity. Most Legion's run gen slowdown, and most survivors run second chance perks. Slowdown Legion is boring for survivors, and second chance is boring for Legion.
But when you have an overly altruistic build as survivor, Legion's frequent injuries let your build shine. When Legion runs an exhaustion build, he'll have some of the quickest chases imaginable.
Scott with the 360 Varial Mctwist Christ Air tech 😂
Gotta love the Vami-Mami Plague! I like to run the machine gun plague. No cooldown on purge if you use short shots
For Knight, assassin hits are so satisfying to get! Take treated blade (+1 assassin), dried horsemeat (+4 seconds chase) and if u predict survivor position correctly, it's pretty much guaranteed hit + deep wound, unless they reach a banner. So the only thing u have is to make sure survivor runs far away from banner and then u can go and harass another survivor. Wreaking havoc on these rabbits was never as fun!
kinda glossed over Pyramidheads cage camping being nerfed but I guess it's still pretty much the same, except you need double range to be far enough away for a double hit out of cage
Scott never misses with these weird topics
Getting shit on by a good curve billy is still fun which is a testament to how fun billy is to go against.
I'd disagree about playing legion. I also like going against him cause you can spin him and he makes the little argh sound if he misses, plus legion chicken, but getting a down after 4 stabs is SO satisfying, not to mention running around the map fast as shit is very fun.
3 years? jesus time flies, I swear it was like a year ago
Trappers pretty fun to go against you just have to locate the basement and never go down near it otherwise it's an m1 with no chase power
23:35 - I always run Blight with no add ons but because so few people do, I get people not give me a chance with him which is kinda sad.
I'm a Pyramid Head main and I fucking love going for those prediction shots. Even if I throw the game trying to predict a survivor, I still enjoy doing it. I love getting cheeky Nowhere to Hide hits on hidden survivors, I've even managed to double punish survivors with I'm all Ears and Lethal Pursuer!
Only downside is when survivors gen rush me so hard when I only have chase aura reading perks and they have all the second chance perks in the world on busted maps. Thats why lately I've been running at least 1 slowdown perk as well as 3 aura reading perks instead of all 4 being aura reading perks.
[Very unhappy Dredge main sounds]
The only tierlist where trapper and nurse are at the same tier
I'm a no add-on Blight in fact I play killer with no add-on's all the time well one exception that would be speed limiter Leatherface for farming off course usually during events.
My top killers in terms of enjoyment based on both sides are, oni, dredge, blight, wesker and huntress. Singularity comes close but emps are a little too annoying on killer side.
Killer Chase Music/Terror Music Tier List now PauseChamp
Doctor: Hunteress's Lullaby, overcharge, Discordance, Distressing, Jolt, Unnerving Presence and Coulrophobia. Even hearing the screams.
Big fan of Still Tech. Killer holding at a corner, survivors stopping for Huntress or Slinger -- Still Tech so good
I want a tier list for all the times Scott got spun
B tier is just all my favorite killers to play minus Clown and to that I say Scott you should try yellow only Clown
Describing clown as basically just Freddy pisses me off way more than it should
I know this is a bit late but I played singularity again and realized why I really don't enjoy him that much. I'm on console and it really is just way too hard for very little in return. When I play Wesker or Huntress and manage to aim my power perfectly it always guarantees a hit, so I can have my moments or get lucky at times and play the rest of the game as an M1 killer and do just fine. But as Singularity, one succesful use of your power, aka slipstreaming someone is just one of many things leading to a hit, it is not enough if I can pull it off 5/10 times, I need to get these hard mechanical movements right 9 or 10/10 times to even be in the game, and on top of that play well in general.
I like playing legion for the 5 hit downs just a little boost of dopamine
I'm surprised with how much I agree with this. Based tier list
I used to run exclusive no addon Shadow/Chili blight and it was super fun. Only reason i stopped was i felt i had hit a point where survivors were consistently too strong to beat that way, so instead of crutching on perks i just started using speed
I honestly dont see the issue with the speed addons. C33, Blight Tag, and Alch ring are so much stronger. the main thing the speed does is let you land some hits on window vaults survs think they can make it too, but they can also learn how fast you are and fake it next time. Also the loops where there is a long thin line of objects between you and the surv where you could try rushing from your side to theirs and try flicking into a it lets you do that more consistently. Much better than everyone is hindered because you pressed your power button once, or rushing immediately after a hit.
10:40 I will slightly disagree here. Playing against a bubba who plays normally until he can insidious camp someone in the basement is really boring to go against. It's just kinda like "Well that guy is dead now, cool."
Playing against a bubba who goes into the basement right off the bat and insidious camps the basement chest is hilarious. When someone goes down there to touch his stuff and dies I always laugh my ass off.
Silly Scott of course freddy is the most fun killer as nothing is more powerful than imagination. It can change everything you think you know
Honestly Nick Cage definitely makes S+ tier killer. He downs himself more than the killer does half the time!
When I play Blight, I do without add-ons. But that's mostly because I don't use any add-ons at all.
23:30
While it might be annoying to go against, PLAYING as Blight with double speed addons is fun as shit. You can legit jump over the entire RPD lobby to get to the main gen and it is a legit jumpscare. You can even jump over the holes in the Game too, it's super fun if you know the speed required to do it.
I would argue that oni and billy are S tier as well, or at least A+ tier if it was a thing, they are just so fun to play as and against
I find it so unfortunate that there's so little counterplay to Knight's guards, as a Knight player. Of course, the 3-gen playstyle is boring so focusing on chasing people down and micromanaging where you send your guards to cut people off or occupy a second survivor while you're chasing one is SUPER fun and I wish survivors had more to do vs the guards other than just... run
I was honestly all about this list til you put wesker in s tier. Guy is the bottom of the bottom. He’s right there with knight and trickster. Almost an instant DC.
D tier freddy rip😭there is no better feeling in this game to me than watching a survivor throw a fake pallet onto me and i just sit there and give them the lightskin stare before i smack em
Im not the biggest pinhead fan but i will say, every once in awhile when i play him, i really enjoy the macro game of the box. No other killer really has a similar macro game. The chain shot is kinda meh though.
Agree on the Wraith. Only exception is the good flashlighters
23:35 hi yeah we've seen blights not run one of those
sure it's us on the rare occasion we play him but shh it counts we use rose tonic and soul chemical because we suck
I feel warm and fuzzy inside when I get face camped by Bubba.
Scott really just skipped over the Skull Merchant's explanation lmao 😂
I hate wesker so much, i want dc every time i see him, bs grabs after you dropped pallet, stupid infection that helps him if you loop him for too long, insane terror radius so you never know how close he is. And i noticed they play like nurses, hardcore tunneling with 4 slowdown perks.
He seems like Nurse for bad killer players lmao
I find the best way to use Pinhead's active power is to just place it in front of whoever you're chasing, immediately fire, and hope to whatever god you worship that the chains don't spawn at shit angles, because otherwise it's just not worth using at all.
I’ve gotta say, these are some of the best takes I’ve ever seen in this entire community. Amazing list.
I hate playing against plague because the vomiting reminds me of when my mum was dying from chemo… my least favourite character to go against for that reason
I wish they would make accessibility options to make the vomit less vomit-y looking
I agree with you on a lot of them.
I think Nemesis could be higher though 🤔
He's my goto if I want to blow off some steam.
I main Oni so I'm glad to see him in A 😁
Not even joking when I say I might be the best in the world at countering Dslinger, I’ve got in the heads of like 99 out of 100 of them I’ve played against, I just know exactly when they’re gonna shoot based on just environmental awareness, you get a taste for guessing
I love playing as and against nurse, especially if it's a good one 😭😭
9:00 I will say with the FPS of the switch version, huntress is hell on both sides
Bubba best boi should be in S regardless of the weird ones. I’m weird too lol. Getting tunneled by a nemesis feels natural and face camping bubba is kinda enjoyable. ❤ W take
Spinning a nemesis is the funniest shit in the game 😂😂 he’s just such a goofy killer
You knock blight down from S to B because the reality is most people use OP shit on blight and that makes it unfun for you. The reality of playing against Wesker is that they proxy camp, tunnel and slug. Even you acknowledge that the hinder persisting after hook in Weskers power encourages tunneling.
hot take: nemesis is just a multiverse variant of pyramid head
Good list, good explanations. Thanks for doing this
God this tier list wesks so hard
