DEVs released latest kill stats. Freddy is the deadliest killer

[Troman]

https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/106566/

Average killrate in red ranks among all killers is around 70% (=30% escape rate).

Nurse is the weakest killer among all ranks.

3 indoor maps are deadliest for survivors, while Haddonfield has one of the highest escape rates.

oh i'll make sure to read those stats after my game :)
So Freddy is deadliest but Nurse and Spirit got nerfed ?

That's what I though too. But they probably made that decision based on Nurse's PC stats. My guess is that she was deadlier than other killers on PC by a big margin. We don't have separate PC stats for all killers though.

We do not know if console was included or not. But it does show that nerf to Sally was overkill

so all killer overperform in red ranks when you see this stats => make ranking up more difficult so only super hardcore 24/7 DBD players can reach that ranks

Yea I dont think anyone didnt see this coming. Even killer mains agreed, freddy was very powerful and a bit overtuned

[Flaren89]

Pretty sure that red rank kill rate counts Mori kills and tunnels, which both the effect of slowing down the game, secure early kills and give more chances of getting late kills.
Maps was pretty obvious on which were more "safe" and which more "unsafe".

If you want to win, play killer.

Fact is that atm is probably harder to rank up as killer than survivor, which means only really good killers get to red ranks, while even potato survivors can get there (like me).
Because as Survivor atm the requirement to rank up is to: survive with 1 totem and 2 gens done and a safe hook with a bit of chaser emblem, or die with silver emblem by doing a bit better with the other things.
As killer instead it's likely to get genrushed and get poor Gatekeeper Emblem, have to hit 2 times (avoid 1-hit shots) survivors to get better Chaser Emblem, hook everybody multiple times to get better Devout Emblem, both to get better Malicious Emblem, hope no one DCs or sacrifices on hook or you get poor Chase, Malicious, Devout Emblems, etc.

Is Freddy deadliest because he is now OP or because survivors still learn how to play against him?

Same goes for Bubba. He is the weakest killer among Legion and Clown, but seems to me that people doesn't even know it still exist and do very unplausible mistakes.

That's a stupid statistic.
1) How many players played killer and how many survivor.
2) Escape?
3) kill rate
4) How many survivors played in the "red ranks"
5) How many players played killer in the "Red Ranks"
6) Killer assignment to kill rate
.....

If nobody publishes this statistic says nothing at all.

Points 1, 4, 5 I think is data coming from their own servers, with logs.
Points 2 and 3 is self-explanatory: 50% means 2 dies, 2 escape. But as I said, that doesn't explain how it was achieved, kills with Moris or Tunnel or NOED or get escape by hatch (last survivor or key), doesn't compare SWF or solo.

And if dc counts toward kills or not?

Oh right, that doesn't shows in the stats... So maybe that's the reason for so good killer's kill rate in red ranks? Full of people ragequitting if get camped/tunneled? But I don't think it is considered, otherwise Spirit would have now 95% kill rate... Maybe?
