Killer Tier List (Patch 2.2.0)
S+ Tier
The Nurse
The Nurse is the best as always she been! She can blink across the map fast, ease, and also up-and-down buildings, and she can also chase Survivors down insanely quick!p
The Nurse also breaks the game! She can blinks through walls, over pallets, up and down areas, which makes her chase potential significantly better than the other Killers and allows her to traverse the map incredibly fast!
Overall, The Nurse is insanely powerful if she's on the right hand! She does breaks the formula of Dead by Daylight, which is why she so difficult for the Survivors to deal against!
The Hillbilly
The Hillbilly is the best at Map Pressure, and the Chase, but depends on the chase sometime.
Closing the gap is super big on The Hillbilly, and HE'S PRETTY FAST! He can go from one end to the map to another, in only a couple of seconds, making it so much easier to deal with Survivors on different Generators, increasing your Map Pressure to the highest!
With his insane Map Pressure, he can get to Survivors a lot of faster before they have a chance to hide! With insta-down, high Movement Speed, and massive Map Pressure, making The Hillbilly insanely powerful at those who good with him!
The Hag
The Hag provides two things that are crazy strong: Map Presence, and Chase Potential!
She can stop the loop pretty easily, as she can place her traps insanely fast, allowing the Survivors to step on it or forcing them to ran into another loop.
With the increased distance of teleport, increased speed of setting traps, and her low Terror Radius, The Hag ends up becoming a massive Map Pressure character! Combine this with "Make Your Choice", and Add-Ons that increase the speed of setting her traps, you'll be bouncing around the map like a Ping Pong Machine, downing everybody!
S Tier
The Spirit
The Spirit is incredibly hard to play well, but on the right hand she can be extremely terrifying. Her Mind Game Potential is absolutely insane, once she predicts the Survivors' move, she can turn a safe loops into a free hit, and if they don't abandon that loop, then that's a free-down as well! The Spirit does have good Map Presence and Chase Potentials as she iis able to move very fast while phasing, but to use these you have to be very skilled with her!
However, The Spirit is a weird killer as well! Not only because she's pretty hard to master, but her power can also hurt herself more than it could be assistance, depending on what kind of Survivors she deal against! You can still make her hard and make her effective, but the problem is you don't get very much for playing her the best you can!
The Pig
The Pig has some really good things for her! Her Ambush can turn a safe loops into a free hit, and if they don't abandon that loop, then that's a free-down as well! The Pig's Ambush is ascended! Her Mind Game Potential is crazy, plus she's shorter than most of the Killers so she gets even more Mind Game Potential! She can crouch as well and get stealth to Generators, which means you can get an initial hit! She won't get yanks but she will get an initial hit for free, which means chases overall shorter.
Her Reverse Bear Traps can force the Survivors do nothing but to search for Jigsaw Boxes, allow her to insanely slow the game down better than any other Killers! Mix out the pallet changes and the big maps are actually good for the sake of getting the Bear Traps off in The Pig's eyes, the Survivors have to waste even more time traversing!
The Shape (Michael Myers)
What Myers excels in is Chase and Map Presence! Although he's a slow Killer, but his Terror Radius makes him far more frightening!
Not only you can make Jumpscare Myers pull the Survivors off the Generators like it's nobody's business which is always terrifying, but the main thing he's great at is sneaking up to the Survivors just completely out of nowhere!
If you run "Monitor & Abuse" and Add-Ons that lower his Terror Radius in Evil Within II, making it far more difficult for Survivors to find any kind of pallets or windows before you get to them! Not only that, you can save up Evil Within II, and then you Pop Evil Within III, and then BOOM! INSTA-DOWN!! And nobody dares saving the others from the hook if you're anywhere nearby, because Evil Within III is very terrifying!
Myers will still get looped, stunned by pallet, but you can turn chases into a very powerful thing in arsenal! You can create a scary Myers player by working on his power correctly and with all of his cool Add-Ons and Perk combinations, which is why he's on S Tier!
A Tier
The Huntress
The Huntress quasi breaks the game! Windows and Pallets are no longer safe havens, if the Survivors do it wrong, it ends up being a "dead sentence" for them! So naturally The Huntress has far fewer issues when it comes to loops and jungle gyms!
She could be higher Tier depending on the Ranks! But at higher Rank, she Can be a bit difficult to deal against high Rank Survivors, mainly because Survivors can dodge her Hatchets pretty easily if they're good, but it depends on skills! But overall, The Huntress still provides insane chase potential and becomes really good!
The Clown
The Clown doesn't really have any ways to slow the game down and lack of Map Pressure, but phe's VERY Good in the chase, and some tracking! Occasionally he'll be able to herd the Survivors away or at least throw a bottle in the area he think a Survivor is in an attempt to find out if they're there or not, it helps a little bit like mediocre tracking, but mainly he's Chase Potential is VERY GOOD!
You can throw bottles in a certain area to make it difficult for the Survivors to get through your toxic area, and by doing so, unless they dropped the pallet immediately every time you get to it, you will probably wouldn't get looped if at all! You can generally trade hits for stun and really do a pretty damn good job as The Clown!
B Tier
The Doctor
The Doctor is the Best Tracker in the entire game, nobody can find the Survivors better than him. Not only that, but he also can stall the game a bit! Madness Level III will force the Survivors do a challenge in order to get snapped out of it, also making Skill Checks go everywhere makes it harder to heal and to repair, which also helps delay the game even longer!
He also has a bit of Map Presence, because you can buff his Terror Radius to become super large, causing those same issues to the Survivors. He even kind of good in the chase sometimes if you're able to shock the Survivors pretty harm!
The bad thing is, even with his powerful tracking, everything else he did is a kind of benefit! So while he has his obvious strength, but overall if you can't shock correctly or more importantly if there's a loop you're gonna deal with, you're gonna have to end up being looped and having to deal with the standard problems most Killers have!
Messing with a Survivor only works if the Survivors isn't used to it. At High Ranks, they just won't care about the weird Skill Checks , they wouldn't care about snapping out of it, and it won't make a difference for you or the Survivors.
The Wraith
The Wraith did get an update and some of his Add-Ons are pretty dang nice! However, it really did not change much about him! Giving him a built-in Windstorm and such were a very good changes. However, because of that, it basically just turned him into a high Add-On Wraith!
The Wraith does have some really solid changes to his kit that can be pretty good and certain Add-On combinations can make him pretty strong at times, but overall everything that was rough about The Wraith still remains.
What he did get is slightly better Chase Potential, and if you run the new Windstorm he does have much higher Map Presence! However, he still has no way to slow the game down, so even though you can still move a lot faster, The Wraith still have the same problems he did before!
The Trapper
The Trapper is a very feast Killer! At times The Trapper can seem godly, but it's only if The Trapper knows how to place his Bear Traps and the Survivors aren't very diligent in their vision. If you can place your Bear Traps correctly and get them all step on them, you can do insane damage, and it is very impressive when you do!
The bad thing is that with The Trapper, you just don't got much if they see your Bear Traps! Once the Survivors discobers your Traps, they walk around them or disable them, and then you become a basic Killer that can really do nothing! The only time The Trapper can do things perfectly is when he baits the Survivor into doing a loop with a Trap in it, and that is a lot harder than it appears, which is why The Trapper while having some Map Presence with his Traps, has poor game stalling, poor tracking, and not great chase potential, putting him at B Tier!
C Tier
The Cannibal (Leatherface)
Leatherface has the ability to insta-down multiple Survivors. But with the exception of the insta-down, he has absolutely nothing going for him. He has no way to slow the game down in any sense, no tracking power, and lacks of map pressure either!
Leatherface can insta-down Survivors more ease than The Hillbilly, because it's harder to dodge. Unfortunately, it really only shines against groups of Survivors or it only works when they're in the open area! His power is not good in loops, near windows, it'll only work if you can get the drop on the Survivors or they simply have nowhere to go in terms of pallets and windows, but that is very rare in the game!
The Nightmare (Freddy)
Freddy is my main, but unfortunately he's very...very...terrible... Freddy lacks in terms of a Killer.
He has a lot of issues mainly the fact Survivors can get themselves out of the Dream State very easily by Self Care or Generator Explosions. He has no way to help him in the chase, and the fact his power sometimes more of a detriment, where you occasionally you may be able to secure a kill against Survivors running out of the Exit Gate or through a Hatch! You were completely unable to because you have to wait for the Dream Transition State.
Overall, Freddy is just naturally a very poor Killer. While he CAN slow the game down slightly thanks to his power, and he is somewhat good at Tracking, he does not do very well in either the Map Presence or the Chase Potential parts for the game.
Comments
BTW OchiDo is also not a good player since he mostly spends his Time on low Ranks and i’m mentioning this because he and his SWF Squad are probably OchiDo Wannabes
