At this point I have enough hours in the game that I can't call myself a beginner anymore but I still struggle a lot sometimes. I really just try to play my own fun way, I generally don't tunnel, I'll often even ignore an easy down on the person I last hooked. My biggest problem is I only play in short bursts and so never really got good at mind gaming, knowing the tiles and the right thing to do and when. I started as killer main, now I play a lot of survivor too. I mostly just go for whatever has the BP incentive now tbh. I try to play too nice, and also sometimes just get an awful map vs a really good team I just lose motivation and turn the game off. I probably only play a couple games a day or every other day now.
Hi OTZ, I have a genuine question about MMR.
Back about a year and half ago when MMR officially released, everyone HATED IT because it was super strict. Extremely good survivors would always have medkits, meta perks, and play against Nurse, blight and spirit mainly. It was unfun for the top MMR because of the lack of variety to be there in the first place.
However NOW I literally see everyone complaining about MMR because they lowered the soft cap so there's a wide variety of people there. Mainly anyone who knows how to play the game at its core can pretty easily get there. So a lot of killers will get easy survivors, or sometimes strong survivor SWFs will get baby killers, and visa verse…
But, isn't this current MMR the same as the rank system DBD had a few years back? The only difference being your rank is now hidden, and a secret number between 800-3000 or something, and "Red Ranks" … and some purple ranks, are the soft 1600 cap or whatever it may be. It feels like we're back to the same matchmaking we used to be in a few years back, the only difference being it's now secret and hidden. Why is everyone always annoyed at this?
otz using the best legion jacket poggies
meanwhile I'm constantly bodying survivors because I just started back after a break lol. Knight is awesome
“yee to my haw” and “haw to my yee” is the real winner here
Oh no! This isn't Otz! Otz always confirms it is indeed him
Who is this imposter?
When the plague said "Now I will pop goes the weasel" was pretty nuts. Best phrase in all the game
That nea in the legion game had auto dead hard.
Sorry otz, I’m a twins main… I’m too far gone 😭😂
When I read "beginner & intermediate killers"
I wasn't sure if you meant based on killer tier list, killer "difficulty" (as indicated in-game), or player skill level. Wasn't really expecting "a little of each."
Hardest part for me is still knowing when to commit to chase and when to leave. To be fair, I haven't been practicing, but it feels bad to leave someone right in front of you to go look for someone who might not be where you think.
Dunno why but in this video, all of the audio cues felt like they were louder than usual, and coming from different angles. A gen to your right sounds like it's behind you, and a vault to your left sounds like it's on your right.
Back when I was into Overwatch, watching pro players give breakdowns on newer/lower ranked players gameplay was actually some of my favorite content. It's one of the better ways to get examples of "here's what you shouldn't do and what you should do instead" for those odd situations, those situations where the best thing to do is different from the general guideline. Since you're already reviewing that content for some players (presumably on stream), what do you think about uploading a few of your favorite examples (assuming the player is up for it)?
Sure, this is great and all for new players, but it’s not really what they need.
They need to get their ass kicked and toughen up a bit. They need to understand that this game isn’t always fair and that it’s tough. Once they understand that, they’ll be significantly less frustrated with it in general and will learn to have some fun for once.
It’s really THAT simple. Things take practice. Give yourself time.
BHVR are very lucky to have you helping their game & its community so much.
You have helped me be a better killer from all the things I've learnt from you.
I actually run into the opposite problem allot of the time, where I destroy a team (eg: 5 gen them), so I will choose more obscure builds or just play more chilled.
Obviously I still get destroyed by survivors every now and then if they are a good team etc.
Thank you for all your help dude.
Something that would be very helpful to add to these tutorial videos is text overlays at moments where you make certain decisions, like for instance moments where you chose to slug someone, or found two survivors and decided to chase a specific one, when a survivor makes a not-so-obvious mistake and how you exploited it, why you went to a certain part of the map at some point, etc. Killer and perk choices matter a lot, but I think the ability to make swift chase decisions can easily overturn a difficult match and turn it into a win.
Brilliant video as always.
My GhostFace build is Jolt, Lethal, Eruption and No Where to Hide. I think it’s very well and has won me a ton of games
40:14 god i wish that were me
I feel like I likely fit into the "intermediate" category. I've been playing the game for maybe 6 months which feels kinda long, but isn't that much in the scope of dbd players.
I main Sadako mostly because I love Ringu but realize that on top of still trying to learn the game, Sadako has a lot of downsides. I've definitely had times where I feel like I'm at such a disadvantage because of playing a certain killer, being paired with certain squads, items, perks, etc, etc but you have really helped me understand how to work around these shortcomings my best. I can't really change that as Sadako I'm often weak against these meta perks, good squads, and items but try and bring my own set of tricks and know that I can always improve.
I don't normally comment but thank you otz for helping me and to anyone else, I hope your journey's to becoming better at killer goes well!
Otz we love Otz uploads
Survivors: I hate versing legion players it’s just mending simulator.
Also survivors: brings Dead Hard, Off The Record, Borrowed Time, and Styptic Agent
They didn’t have unbreakable so did Bill pick them up? 44:07
1:20 in and "porly"? Really Otz? This is the level of quality we're going with? Remake the entire hour video please. Literally unwatchable.
The legión Game with the 5 spin desde hard was CRAZYY, i don't unferstand how people can wait for that long and manage yo still use it
got a dbd mobile ad. at leasts its not like the other mobile game ads.
Did I just see a power level ad for dbd mobile💀💀💀
I love Father Chambells Capel
Great video otz, but as a solo player I’d like less ghostfacesand and legions in my games. Wesker is fun to loop though
I have a feeling that a decent portion of killers who have more than a few hours and have played for a long time get beat because of just the current meta for survivors/map generation. You can’t win every game, but sometimes it is rigged against you. In most of my games now at least 1 BNP or syringe/styptic is expected in every match I play and map offerings are very common. Thankfully maps are being a balanced more and more which helps the weaker killers but strong items still carry teams against the weaker end of the killer line up. Hopefully the increased use of these items eventually gets addressed, but I would say if you’re struggling with that just know that you might need to bring stuff at the same level or just play a stronger killer to keep up with the current game state. I don’t really like that honestly, but with the average teams being much tougher to face I would say that in some cases you won’t win against a stacked team unless you play a bit nasty… Not Toxic. I’ve played survivor games where killers slug me for 3 mins just to taunt me and it’s honestly just sad, do that and survivors will be encouraged to play toxic too and you’ve just made the game worst for everyone.
25:05
…yeah, that's DBD for ya
I also think this things in mmr or matches are on purpose because if all 4 survivors were like that claud it would be unplayable.
Edit: Because if you think about it there's always a weak spot on almost all teams
i feel like not a lot of people care about brutal strength on weaker too much. it's honestly op on him bc you can catch up so fast to the survivors with your power after shredding through a pallet
"no one's used calm spirit since wwII" meanwhile I load into a killer match against two survivors with the "shut the fuck up" build
Love me some Wesker gameplay <3
Is it just me, or is Agitation becoming significantly more necessary because of the lack of hooks?
Honestly i never run add-ons even in high level lobbies and well it doesn't go too bad. My one tip is don't just run meta run what is fun
1:45 LEGIOS LET'S GOOOOOOO! Legion if you know the add-ons is very reliable. Not extremely strong, but very consistent if you don't get the 3 largest maps.
Otz: "The last person to run Calm Spirit died in WW2"
Me having faced someone running Calm Spirit last night: "The second coming of Calm Spirit Jesus is upon us"
"Like if you're drunk and you're not playing 100%
That's right, because when I'm drunk I play at 200% BABYYY!
I've always recommended wraith when just starting, a great build with default killer perks is that wraith build, with nurses calling or noed, or any info perk like you said
Otz causally throws out an 8hr long video about 1 build on one killer
44:33 I will say it's sad that plague countered old dead hard since she could puke through it but now you can almost guarantee using dead hard correctly if she uses her corrupt puke.
Otz I am watching u since the release of twins and u helped me climb the mmr so much tyy ur like my “coach” pls keep doing vids and help newer killers ur the dbd legend ❤
As a ghostface main, THANK YOU Otz, this is my favorite character because of the franchise, i have a tattoo of ghostface, like i am a GF buff! But I am terrible with him and it's became discouraging. This video simultaneously helps beginners but also steers me back on track for what I should be doing as the GF. My current build was nothing like this
Somebody pls tell Otz’s twitch moderators they’re 🤡
Is it acceptable to slug a bully squad? I couldn’t hook a single one because of boil over and sabotages but after I got them all down, I would’ve hooked them… but they all disconnected 🤷♂️😂
So, a point that Otz didn't bring up in this video (but has likely brought up elsewhere) for new killers is that as a new/beginner player, every killer he mentioned requires you to spend more money in a game you just started playing. Nurse, Huntress, and Trapper are all starter killers, but for different reasons, aren't viable for starting players. This issue also applies to other starter killers though, you have to already be a certain level of skilled to be successful with them, and as a new player, that's just not likely.
I'm not saying "buff all base killers" but compared to most of the newer ones, some sensible reworks might be in order to get newer players more interested without having to spend additional money (since all the beginner killers he recommended, require you to pay more right off the start of playing the game).
I'll give, with how Nurse's "nerf" went, they may make Trapper worse somehow, but hey, we can dream right?
People who keep complaining about killers being nerfed are bugging out. Killers have so many good builds….
While I appreciate the builds and concepts in general, Ghostface without enough knowledge will make people fall back on being 'Chaseface'. Wraith can perform at low and high levels with a chase playstyle, but with Ghostie you need to take advantage of the macro strategy as you showed with 2 injured people and a 99 stalk. Beginners might not understand the intricacies of that however, and fall back on chasing and not utilizing Ghosties power at all.
