  1. I played Doctor only for a long time. He came free with the console version. Then I bought Pig and Nemesis. Pig was okay, but jeez Nemesis was so hard to use at first. It was rewarding to take the time to learn how to use his whip.

    Then I picked up Trapper and gottdamn I love using Trapper. The dopamine rush of corralling a survivor right to your bear trap is quite addicting.

    At some point I unlocked Clown and Oni. I love Oni but I feel like I have to tryhard every time with him. Clown is a lot more chill….

    I love the SHINOBI CLOWN build Otz showed once. I use Brutal Strength, Trail of Torment, Dragons Grip and Overcharge.

  2. A tip from me is that if u want buy people with money hold onto it until there’s a half price sale so u can get a lot more killers,the sale will get u the best bang for ur buck and happens quite often

  4. I was surv main for 220 hours. Then i decided to try wraith. It was so interesting, that i bought clown for bamboozle, and now, i main blight. Strange choice, because i played around 30 games on wraith and killers in total, but blight is so cool, even if i lose i dont care, cause of how cool his gameplay.

  6. Glad to see an updated version.

    In the old video i picked Legion to be my first killer, than Oni.
    And then I evolved to Sprit and Ghost Face, Spirt is probably my favorite because their pretty fun and pretty neat to use the speed add on’s to become a member of the speed force.

  7. I play a bit of killer, but I'm a survivor main. I mostly play Onryo (I know, she's so weak, I must like pain), with a little Demogorgon, Legion, and Huntress on the side. I pick my killers just because I like their source material/lore/aesthetic mostly, so I don't think I'm exactly a great example of how people choose XD That said, I did your quiz and interestingly none of these come up particularly high on my results (Demo was highest at #4), so maybe I should test out a new killer or two! I always enjoy your videos and insights so it's worth a try, maybe you'll be helping me find a new killer main. =]

  8. Hag was the first ever killer I played and I have mained her ever since, I immediately understood her because I knew what killer was like but I had never played in myself yet. Teleporting killers are my expertise but in general my mains are Hag, Artist and Dredge and other kills I am good at are Wraith and Spirit, I used to play Onryo but I don't like her anymore, she's honestly probably the weakest killer in the game rn.

  9. ive been saving iri shards for a while and am close to getting my next killer (i chose legion first – im a simp for susie) and i am leaning towards the clown. he has extremely powerful teachables and a unique playstyle that looks like a lot of fun to play

  10. The pig was my first main, until I got good and realized how bad she was. Then I picked up spirit and realized everyone hated spirit after I got good at her. Now I main pyramid head, I have all the perks on him and I've played him the longest. I can say the most fun I've ever had was playing as pig and ghost face, but I can only win constantly with pyramid head because I have the most skill with him. Nowadays the only enjoyment I get is if I can watch myself from a survivors pov who recorded it lol

  11. I appreciate your videos man, love watchin' 'em. Even when I only play for fun, and I'm not super concerned about winning constantly, it's nice to watch 'em and see what's optimal and what not.

  12. Mained the Pig. She is full stealth. You have the option of being stealthy unlike Myers, and her dash is good for W players lol. I've also got a lot of kills by sneaking in on a survivor while they were doing gens. It's so satisfying 😂
    Next is the reverse Bear traps. I halted the almost every game plus add ONS which means I can bully survivors searching for the jigsaw box's. The Pig is about monitor and control. She has to control the game. ( No pun intended)

  13. my friend(whos a survivor main playing far longer than i have) decided to try out killer for first time a few days ago. he played as hillbilly. which sadly that game resulted in him uninstalling the game. i mean it didnt help he had a bad map and toxic survivors who shouldnt even be at his skill level. it was a shame how he had to experience the worst as his first game. well he dont play it anymore. i dont know if i can get him to get back and i dont think he should really. in his words he gave the game way too many chances.

  14. I would disagree about freddy and his perks. I believe that remember me is a prettty good perk and BloodWarden is one of the best perks. It gets me more kills

  15. and now wesker in his own category because he's like 3-4 killers in one.
    definitely demogorgon and legion no debate, nemesis in ways, and blight if he damaged survivors off walls not bounced off them.

    the true chad.
