  1. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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).

  8. 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.

  10. 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), "<3"s and "+rep"s abound.

  11. Why is Deathslinger so much lower than Huntress on your list? In my opinion they are extremely similar to play against. I don't get why you think dodging a hatchet is more fun than dodging a shot?

  13. I have to be honest, playing against wraith is boring at all times as there isnt a real punishment for misusing the bell or whiffing the uncloak hit, it doesnt feel good to outplay i guess from a personal standpoint

  15. 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

  17. I think the most surprising one on this list is Freddy being D tier. Yeah he does feel pretty boring to play for the most part (except kinda pallet freddy is pretty satisfying), but he does not feel bad at all to play against anymore after so many changes. He synergized so well with ruin and pop in the past especially with his teleport, and then he could easily tunnel because borrowed time didnt work if you were asleep. And then being oblivious in the dream world was annoying (yeah he had a lullaby but it was pretty quiet and hard to tell how close he was compared to a normal terror radius), but that's all gone now. Yeah he still synergizes decently well with 4 slowdown perks but not to the same extent as before, and the visual terror radius makes it a lot easier to keep track of him in the dream world. And then his anti-loop power just isn't very oppressive. Yes there are some loops where he is basically guaranteed a hit if he does what you said but not really every loop especially compared to like clown. And then on top of that, if you're awake he just has no power. So you end up with a killer who can teleport quickly across the map (so large maps not as annoying for him), has natural game slow down in his kit (because survivors have to go across the map to wake up), but in exchange for that, he doesn't have the best anti-loop. I also kind of like the choice the survivor has: stay asleep and be in more danger while getting chased, OR spend time to wake up and be safer, or intentionally miss a skill check on your generator to wake up. I would legit rather play against freddy than most of the killers in dbd.

    Now on the flip side, I have barely played as freddy but yeah he seems really boring. Like literally all of his add ons are just useless (except pallets which can be fun and a couple of rarer ones) and using his power isn't exciting. So A/B to go against and D/C to play as, so I'd say like B/C tier

  18. Turning radius addon blight is so much fun because nobody expects you to be able to hit the flicks you can hit, it's especially neat against players who know blight's usual counters because you can hit in so many places an alc ring blight can't lmao

  20. I have well over 1k hrs of playing billy and back in the day i had the time of my life playing him. However since the trash rework i quit playing him and the game in general. And now it's like they completely changed the hitboxes of some structures. Or mb i just lost muscle memory😢

  23. 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.

  24. I don't care about getting tunneled but nemesis is extremely boring to vs. Tentacle has bullshit hitboxes and once it's t2 has little counterplay aside from predropping and I can't count the number of times I've lost games because the zombies quite literally carried the killer the entire match forcing people off gens

  27. 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.
