All 30 Killers Ranked Least to Most Annoying to Face! (Dead by Daylight Killer Tier List)



Read more Dead by Daylight ➜ https://deadbydaylight.mgn.gg

Hey everyone, today I thought we’d rank the killers least to most annoying to face. Specifically, how frustrating they are to go against as our primary objective. This will be scaling the killers on how annoying or frustrating they can be, for whatever reason. It’s gonna be quite an opinionated list I imagine. For this we have 5 tiers. Extremely annoying I hate them I hate them, Pretty annoying, but bearable, Neutral reaction to facing them, Happy to face them, not annoying, Omg, [insert killer name]. Let’s get into it.

  1. Ghost face and wraith are my least favourite to face. Even as someone who plays as stealthy as possible and enjoys the stealth killers I think stealth killers are op. They can start almost all chases especially ghost face with the survivor being injured. And I mean being able to start every chase with the survivor injured is wayyyyy to op I think the first hit if it's a stealth hit shouldn't injure just debuff for the duration of the chase. Even as a stealth killer I'm more than happy with the new bug where one of the perks(I don't remember the name) allows you to see the aura of a killer even in stealth when they break a pallet/wall. That bug I don't think should be changed as it allows survivors a bit more of a chance. I don't like playing ghostie anymore because I would win basically every game 4k without feeling the sense of earning it. So the abilty for a few survivors to be able to see me every now and then would be fine aslong as it's not every killer and every aura perk so my power isn't just pointless.

  2. I have quite a different list to this, most killers I am neutral about playing against but I love playing against nurse or oni, I like playing against myers, blight, demo and spirit, I really hate wraith, and I don't much like pig or plague. I haven't played against dredge enough to feel any way and haven't played against wesker or the knight at all.

  3. I actually like going against Spirit since I personally like the mind game. I used to hate Huntress but now I don't mind going against her. Nurse would likely have to be my least favorite.

  4. I can't agree with the knight because every knight that i face uses the new 3 gen stalling build, never chasing just defending a 3 gen and making the game last for 30 minutes. Is the problem the killer or the perks, idk but those situations just are too common for me

  5. Demo and saddako both make me happy as hell, i never see demo and i don't have him so its a ton of fun to see one
    As for saddako i've played a to of her so there is some bias but shes also pretty chill most of the time

  6. I find Nurse incredibly annoying because I've yet to play against a single one in the last three months who isn't running Agitation + Starstruck with a map offering. Wow, incredibly original. Can't wait to immediately go down because she can ignore physics

  7. WHY DOES EVERYONE ONLY CARE ABOUT DREDGE'S NIGHTFALL MAKING MAPS DARK?!
    You have a killer that can teleport across the map and the only thin you can do is slow him down upwards of two times, it can also be on both sides of a loop at once and yet you choose maps being darker every now and then to complain about! I just don't get it!

  8. Nurse not being in extremly annoying? Blasphemy! Every Nurse I face is like they got more hours played than they've slept and always run the boring Call of Brine, Overcharge, Eruption and Pain Resonance.

  10. For me my list is (this is based off of how often I play against these killers as well):

    😠 Extremely Annoying: Wesker, Plague, Wraith, Bubba, Hag
    🙄 Pretty Annoying: Cenobite, Trickster, Freddy, Twins (slightly closer to neutral), Trapper, Clown, Dredge (slightly closer to neutral), Nemesis, Doctor (slightly closer to neutral)
    😕 Neutral: Deathslinger, Nurse, Huntress, Myers, Ghost (slightly closer to happy), Artist (slightly closer to happy)2
    😯 Happy: Pig, Billy
    😍 Omg: Sadako

    Its too early to say where Knight should go, I havent played against him enough.

  11. For me personally, I despise going against Wraith the most out of all killers. Imo, Wraith is honestly just one of the most frustrating killers to face and he's pretty unfun to face, I can't count the times I've died to a Wraith camping, tunelling and/or slugging it out and that's happened to me a lot. It's gotten a lot easier to sweat with him as well because of the increased movement speed he gets while cloaked, imo he doesn't need to be that fast when cloaked, if his movement speed while cloaked was a little slower, he'd be a bit more bearable.

    Other killers I do find frustrating to play against are Nurse, Dredge, Bubba, Hag and Pig. Timid and cowardly survivors im putting here too as a lot of really timid/immersed/cowardly survivors often let me die on first hook, even when the killer is on the other end of the map chasing someone else.

    On the other hand, I love going against Oni, Pyramid Head, Wesker, Nemesis and Blight, I think they're a blast to play against and have a lot of fun playing against them and I don't get them all that often, especially Oni and Pyramid Head.

  12. Ok so I had an idea for a new killer
    When they activate their ability they set a location where they are standing. Within a 20 meter radius they can move, and when they activate their ability again, they teleport back to their set location, and leave their red stain behind for 10 seconds. It could use some refining but I think it'd be a fun idea.

  13. I felt like I was the only one who strongly disliked Wraith. Most of them are hit and run and there is zero chases to be had with him. Every time it’s just “uncloak, free hit, cloak, go find someone else, sneak up on you again, another free hit because of his lunge.”

    He’s not incredibly strong but damn do I not enjoy matches against him in the slightest.

  14. I agree with the extremely annoying teir except wraith since I mained as him for a year and know his weaknesses, but the two killers I love to face are deathslinger, cause he's like huntress but you get more rewarded from dodging his shot and more punishment from being hit and its this do or die situation in every chase, and for some reason my relationship with Michaels are like JRM and bubbas, I constantly pull these insane stunts against them and they always feel like a good friend of mine or a pet even if they're being a bit toxic and rightfully so

  15. Why do you hate Blight so much :_( First saying he is unbalanced and now saying heis frustrating to go against becouse hits feel unearned :_( Edit: And Nurse is aceptable becouse she "takes skill" but Blight isn't when he actually takes skill ? I can't believe this </3

  16. I love going against Dredge. I find the nightfall is fun to go against and its not to difficult if you have a decent loop instead of holding W. Also getting jumpscared from lockers is priceless 😂
