Corrections:
– At 5:42, I meant to say Blight could be at the *top* of the next tier (not bottom).

Big thanks to @LuminiousDBD (thumbnail render).

  1. Hello Otz and friends, this is me, your friend.

    I think an interesting challenge to do Otz would be to do a tome challenge to disturb 20 crows, but with calm spirit on. Yes you can do it, but I don’t know all the ways. I found out you could because I’m doing the same challenge and didn’t realize I was playing with calm spirit. I’ve got 2/20 progress in 2 matches. Not sure if they only get disturbed when you get downed or what

  2. Great video as always Otz! I agree with 95% of what you had to say, the only part I disagree with slightly is the xenomorph's placement, solely for the fact that I feel like the tail attack is deceptively powerful for how easy it is to access. Just for running through the tunnels for a couple seconds, which good xenos should be doing anyway to patrol gens and detect survivors, it gets access to an attack with a surprisingly long range which I find really catches survivors off guard, all while being ready to use at a moment's notice with an incredibly short wind up time. There will be chases where the survivor will be so far ahead of me that they will think they have an extra second to turn or make it around a corner, only to get hit by the very end of the hitbox. Granted, this is nothing compared to some what some higher tier killers can do, but I guess what I'm getting at is that they should nerf pig.

  3. It makes me sad to see chucky so far down. He is or was me favorite killer now he sucks. Tbh they didn't have to nerf him so much, yeah sure the 10 second cooldown was strong but you can still counter that. He went from A+ to C. Its like the pig

  4. THANK YOU FOR HOUNDMASTER LOVE!! i am a hound main now and thank you for appreciating the very versatile and strong skillset she has. havent seen much love despite huge skill ceiling (redirect broken with mind games and dogs auto tile pathing) who recieved nearly universal buffs

  5. Great List! As always a highlight of the year. I am really curios to see what is going to happen with HM because I enjoy her a lot atm. I honestly don't think she should be nerfed while Killers like Nurse, Blight and Billy are the way they are now. She is strong but not in a super busted way imo. There are too many killers that feel to play like s**t imo. Don't want her to go back to that.

  6. Xenomorph, I haven't gotten to it yet and I am not disagreeing but damn bro was in low A- tier but now she is lower. Not sure if she was nerfed from then or if killers just got better. I can't wait to find out though. 🙂

  7. imo you dont see nurse very often these days, bc you nearly need to otp her to become good at blinks. A lot of my friends dont play her bc of tilting blinks (suddenly on another floor, hitbox blocked by survivors or she didnt blink onto intented floor and so on)
    but ofc you get rewarded if you practice her alot 🙂
