You get to learn how killers play, in turn that makes your survivor gameplay better

Good:
- Ez BP
- More creativity in terms of build creations
- Personally more fun than survivor

Cons:
- You will get judged for everything you do.
- Instant target for harassment by ultra-entitled survivors.

Pros : you don't have to rely on teammates. You can kill people.
Cons : everything else, but mostly, you're not the power role as you're supposed to be. Meta makes you run in circles like a Benny Hill show.

Pro:
more variety due to each killer being unique.
If you like that sorta gameplay it's hard to get it anywhere else.
There is a certain satisfaction to completely outplaying a survivor.
You dont have team mates so you are only relying on your own skill

Con:
the community is toxic so you need to have thick skin because teams will rage against you.
You will be constantly harassed if you dont follow thr survivors unofficial rulebook.
Unless your the best of the best SWFs can be frustrating because it is basically sanctioned cheating if they share in game info.
Survivors are stronger than most Killers if they play optimally.
When 4 survivors escape it's incredibly frustrating because you have no one to blame but yourself

Killers and survivors get roughly the same amount of points.

ignore all of these comments.

the truth is:
PROs: you kill stuff

CONs: stressful to chase 4 survivors with 16 meta perks of second chances that change the basic rules of the game in every living breath.

PRO: possibility to kill annoying people.
CON: possibility to lose against annoying people.

Not worth it to me personally. Also got more to do with my time then gidding gud in a game that actually gets on my nerve more often then it amuses me.

keep in the low ranks to lessent he likelihood they figured out how to spam unjustified reports against you yet for whatever campy campy tunnel tunnel gameplay you did or perks you used that they didn't like. those probably have some of the ones that wanna do it the most but are least likely to have figured it out yet. which keeps the devload low and able to focus on the important ones. at least once I met a person who took a minute to figure out there was evena chat afterward.

Pros as others have said more bloodpoints per match compared to survivor. I can average 70k a match compared to a measily 15k or 20k as survivor. Since you will be in the lower ranks you can steam roll crossplay players on console so its an easy win. Not sure how it fairs in high ranks. My survivor is rank 8 and I get a lot more sweaty killers that play on console so be prepared for that. Cons is you will be flamed after every match no matter what you do. Even if you don't camp or tunnel you will still be called a camper or tunneler. Learn to disable post game chat so you don't have to deal with it. Playing killer you need a thick skin.

Pro : you got to play actualy caracters with unique habilities you can marrie with 4 perks for a lot of combo, and not an overly expensive skin that come with every new killer

Cons : you will spend a freaking long time to learn and masteries killers power while beeing bulling only trying to have fun

Pro tips : take you soul out and leave it in the closet befor the match start and go fetch it after the game end.
You'll get flamed by every survivor you meet, you'll find guys running unbreakable+ds+bt+sb all the time, you'll get looped for ages, the matchmaking sucks.
