All 31 Killer Power Designs Ranked Worst to Best (Dead by Daylight Tier List)



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

Hey everyone, today I thought we’d rank power designs, and how well they work within current DbD. Basically, how fun, engaging, and generally fair different character’s powers are. This video was kind of triggered by the two most recent additions to the roster, and their questionable powers. Six tiers for this one. Let’s get into it.

  1. "Not too punishing " a speed up grab that has three chances to hit and is hard to avoid with nonsense hit boxes and leads to slow down that can result in an insta down mixed with the slow down of clowns bottles . Ffs

  2. I really like the Clown tho, one of my fav killers tbh. Even though the power is kinda plain, it still kinda has some depth in the ways how you can shut loops and interact with his add-ons (mostly the one that gives you wallhacks with yellow bottle)
    And I really enjoy Trapper and Hag abilities. They require the completely opposite playstyle to other killers, that requires some smart setup (bearing in mind some common spots that survivors come across etc, that requires a good knowledge of the game, therefore making their plain abilities way deeper) with a future potential to snowball

  3. As annoying as Spirit is (I understand your opinion, Azhymovs), I actually have liked her all these years due to how unique her power was and still is. I love the invisibility of it.

  4. Idk if I’m insane for this but I think skull merchant is pretty fun to play, obviously she isn’t the most fun but I don’t think she’s that bad, playing against her especially solo Q can seem a bit difficult though

  5. Easily the best designed killer is wesker strong power good slowdown unique add ons top tier killer is fun to go against and play as the people that hate wesker are the ones that tunnel with his infection which shouldn’t be a thing.

  6. I think my only problem with Pyramid Head's power is how strong he is at tunneling, it can be a lot of fun to face him and play him though. To be fair, I feel like I rarely get tunneled by Pyramid Heads though, so it isn't a huge issue for me now althought it was when I first started playing.

  7. As a clown enthusiast,, yellow bottles are not useless. One yellow bottle in a tile can litterly change the outcome of a survivor making the pallet stun/drop. Yes his power is basic and plain, it is very strong when used properly.

  8. Skull merchant hate train is still strong I see 😒😒😒. Anyways the most boring is legion to go against. Just constant mending and that’s it at least with skull merchant a match is happening 💕.

  10. I'm sorry hold on i gotta point this out. How are you gonna say that clowns power is the worst designed because of "slowdown with no recourse" but then turn around and say Wesker's is the best despite the fact he has a far more oppressive slowdown mechanic? Like that dont make any cents luv 🤨

  11. One thing that always bugged me about bubba’s power is that, while you’re using the chainsaw, you have to focus on the environment for things to hit, but also watch your power meter to time your sweeps right, so your eyes are constantly darting back and forth between them

  12. I’m sorry I have no idea how you can say twins have a good power 🤣, they are undeniably the worst and least played killer in the game 🤣
