Solo Survivor has been a hell for the past few seasons, most solos know how to help the team, but most killers have been getting stronger and harder to counter, making playing survivor a seriously frustrating experience as one mistake can mess up a whole match
It’s a weird balance. Every time I play killer I feel like I’m sweating my heart out. Every time I play survivor I have to prepare of the mental anguish of the worst teammates that have God could possibly create. I genuinely don’t understand how it works. The majority of survivors play solo so I really don’t understand how I can have two wildly different experiences.
The dead by daylight reddit thread is always killer sided complaints like as if they aren't the ones who dictate how a match goes. There is no way for a survivor to know what theyre up against, but the killer gets a little sneak peak at prestige levels on survivors, skins, and items in their hand which can contribute to the way a killer customizes their build. Survivor has been wildly unfun to play, especially solo queue, for the last few months. I am constantly met with tunneling and camping killers in almost every match and when I play with my boyfriend (who started playing a little under a year ago and hasn't gotten that good at countering killers or looping yet), he always gets tunneled out. I try to help my team as much as possible by maintaining the objective and taking chase for people who are death hook, but it usually results in a 3k-4k for the killer almost every time.
Massive props to you for actually acknowledging the pain survivor main content creators go through. Yes, their videos may be funny, but they have to endure hours of miserable games to even be able to put together a 10 minute video. Much love
yeah, we can all clearly see the "pain" all those poor souls must go through on a daily basis, each time they upload their 5000th "looping the killer for 100 hours" video. So sad...
Dude, I feel it. As a Killer Main, when I do play survivor, it's miserable, and in my killer matches I've been going REALLY easy on teams because of it. I've literally stopped even proxying except near the end game against obvious SWFs, because of how terrible my survivor matches feel. Tunneling out a guy at 5-Gens is getting so horrifying common that even I am passively advocating for Multi-Use, or even Base Kit DS at this point. It's rough out there.
@@paulanthony5801It sucks but it happens a lot less than people think it does. I played solo about 2 hours yesterday and maybe 2 hours on Tuesday. And I personally was never hard tunneled out at 5. Maybe like attempting tunneling but usually the teammate would take heat
@@brusselseastside3546 I'd say in my 10 games yesterday, there was at least an attempt to tunnel out a player at five gens in 8 of them. I had a match with a Demo last night where I literally took four protection hits in one chase: Hit from healthy, again from Anti-Haemorrhagic, then Dead Hard, and then I just let him actually down me, and he still slugged me and went for the Kate on Death Hook. Honestly, I don't know if it's just dependent on MMR, or what, but at my current level, it's almost every game.
i thought it was just me, but as a killer main my matches have been extremely boring to play because of how overtuned killer is. we have so many perks & in-game mechanics to carry us when we don’t feel like dealing with certain situations (bloodlust, end game countdown, entity blocking windows/vaults, slugging, proxy camping, waiting out endurance hit, etc) i’ve found myself having to always pull back when playing killer just so that i can enjoy the match a few extra minutes instead of ending the game. few years ago you actually had to work for your chases but now it feels like BHVR just hands us the survivor on a silver platter. it’s truly sucked the fun out of good killer player’s experience.
Thank you for talking about how rough solo q survivor is rn. I literally uninstalled the game a month ago because while I try my best to be positive, trying to stay that was when every game was a roflstomp was testing my sanity. I might come back at some point, but only when the game's fun again
Kinda glad to know it isn't just me as a solo queue veteran who has been feeling like solo queue has been pretty miserable lately. When even someone I consider really positive like Spooky is saying how bad it is, I feel it obviously isn't just me being burned out etc
As a killer main I would honestly make you escape if I was that Wesker. You did realy good and you came back for the teamate, so I would let everyone out. 7:15
yeah playing survivor rn is rough, practically every game that i dont just straight up rubberband and the game crashes, i get tunneled or proxy camped the entire game, and its not even like a gen goes by while im being chased either i just wish they would make killer builds a bit more varied instead of just seeing the top build and deciding nuh uh, cus it kinda forces people to do this
Solo Q sucks. Had a game last night where I single handedly finished the last 4 gens, 2 survs died and the last guy hid in a locker near the exit gates. What did he do while I kited the killer? Literally stood next to the gate and didn't prime it. Just watched me. Eventually the killer left me and found him. I had the gate 90% open when the killer got me. Had he primed that door, both of us would have escaped easily. I have at least a match like that every single hour. My matches are either 1) 3 teammates downed and hooked before the first gen is done, 2) a surv leads the killer straight to the other survs...many times on purpose, 3) I do the majority of gens and still die, or 4) I get left on the hook while the other 3 survs have full hp and one hook each but still decide to leave. When I play killer, feels like I get gen rushed every game. Played chucky the other day and the match was over in just over 5 mins. All 4 survs had green toolboxes with spare parts and builds made to gen rush.
You are absolutely right... Playing Surviver these days is kinda hard, specially on Solo-Q. I'm working on the DbD-Achivements on Steam right now and most of all, the Surviver-Achivements were the worst cuz many of them tell you more or less what perks you have to use... Its a loooooooooong struggle...
As a solo que expert....I play Elf Dwight with Calm Spirit (or Distortion), Flashbang, Inner Strength (or Kindred), Overcome or Balacned Landing. I will pick one survivor and make sure that person makes it out or I do and i consider that win. Fun as fuck.
I started DBD about 2 years ago and even I can feel the difference in Solo Q. It’s miserable. I can go through 10+ games without getting all 5 gens completed in a match/without an escape. The current meta is wild, but I get it. Corrupt, Pain Res, Pop, Grim Embrace/Dead Man’s Switch. It’s becoming increasingly less fun. Do I keep playing? Yes, yes I do. I just think we need more information on our solo q teammates to level the playing field with swfs.
It’s nice to see a real killer main admit how abysmal it is to play and main survivor. Everyone else swears to god this game is survivor sided, meanwhile nobody on the survivor side has any fun like 90% of the time. i know i’m not.
There is something to be said about fun to balanced, killer would be way more fun but less balanced towards the game, and then you get into a lot of subjectives
I'll play Dbd maybe once a week and yesterday I played Legion with his perk that lets you see people at the beginning of the game. Someone took that addon where they all spawn in the same spot, so I had a really fun game :)
That Windows of Opportunity description is a major vibe. It's gotten to the point that I am starting to be able to tell which Survivors are using it just by how they run.
I switched from playing killer mostly to almost exclusively playing survivor. Once your mmr gets high enough playing killer feels awful. At least on survivor if the game sucks or I get tunneled I can just quickly go next.
2 of these perks are in one of my favorite biulds. windows of opp, balanced landing, empathy, and quicky & quiet. often replace empathy if i want to use another perk in there but such a fun biuld.
While 4 man squads dominate most killers playing solo is a recipe to lose against even freddy or trapper. No info + randos = high chance for a early death = no chance to win
I would LOVE an episode or two of you, JRM & Ayrun running around as survivors, that would give good lols but I think the ping difference would be too bad, unfortunately
I'm a survivor main, but I play some killer just to see how the other side lives. Much appreciated for the shout-out, and sorry if I suck (if you end up matched with me).
This is basically my main build except sometimes I use hope instead of windows and lithe instead of balanced. Troubleshooter is such an underrated perk and genuinely one of the best solo Q perks in my opinion
I know in your streams you talked about, you might try and make a video on this. I am glad you did, because its a very likely content. Killer content is nice but I love how you play survivor as well.
"Solo q has never been worse" As a survivor main now days who only plays solo q and at decently high mmr um yeah its pretty bad. Grim, pop, scourge mixed in with some random annoyance game after game after game on insanely strong killers. Been some of the most unfun i think in dbd history. Not as bad as the 3 gen meta some time back but its very close. Thankfully scourge and pop are getting nerfed.
I’m terrible as a survivor main, especially since I only play solo q. I find the build I have the most success with is Deliverance; Inner Strength; Overcome; Unbreakable. Deli is tough, especially if you’re first chase, but more often than not I can get value out of it. IS I save for when I’m final hook typically. Overcome is great for extending chase if you’re like me and suck at looping. And Unbreakable because, you know. Slugging.
if you want consistent eyes on the killer than try this build dark sense- after a gen is completed, coming in a 24 metre range of the killer you see their aura for 10 seconds wire tap- after completing 50% of a gen you can choose to put wire tap on that gen or a gen with no progress (i prefer the no progress one as its less likely to be kicked) you see the killers aura for 120 seconds in a 14 metre range (works best on shack gen or a tile gen) -lithe- when you vault. SPEED! and this perk fluctuates but i either do strength in the shadows- after healing in the basement you see the killers aura for 10 seconds or an ordinary perk such as windows of opportunity or resilience this build paired with a key is MWAH chefs kiss
the thing with dbd is to be "good" at the game you have to have at least 1000 hours to be knowledgeable with looping and killers during chase so never really blame yourself as dbd takes time to learn and adapt to.
I’m going his exact build but lithe instead of balanced. Such a chill build where you never bring killer to a progressed gen and you can loop pretty dang well.
concept idea for your next video. Does blindness counter windows of OP? Test all the ways to apply blindness and see how well they counter survivors who play while napping, I mean play with their hand held, I mean.....
I'm not sure, it's pretty close to when Eruption and Call of Brine was on EVERY killer. Not saying it's any better now, but I'm not sure which time was worse.
Granted I’m a killer main so maybe I don’t play survivor enough to get the miserable feeling, but it’s the complete opposite for me when I play survivor. I usually have 0 stress playing survivor exceptions being usually from other survivors that d/c right away or give up for petty crap. Not discrediting others experiences as clearly from the comments it’s been rough lately but just found it interesting because for me it’s the complete opposite.
Solo survivor has been hell because of the other survivors. Every other match I play someone either DCs, suicides on hook, or gives up. Meanwhile when I play killer every other match is filled with survivors who act like their playing against their shitty ex.
either people play killers that aren't fun to play against or people play killers who are and in return they don't have fun its just kinda how it is now days
Playing solo has to be one of the most painful things to do in this game. Hell, even playing in a 3 stack can be rough as 1 random is sometimes all it takes for a match to be over before it even begins. Idk what's gotten into people lately, but it's out of control and ruining queuing up with anything less than a 4 stack.
Yeah solo-q rn is so bad tbh. Ive started to NEED to run anti tunnel/camping and slugging perks that i normally wouldnt otherwise the game just becomes so unfun especially when barely even 1 gen gets popped during everything. My main build has just changed to Decisive strike, Deliverance, Unbreakable, and Kindred (i usually use kindred anyways but tbh even with it equipped it feels like everyone has the blindness status affect 😭).
I’m so glad spooky loops said it bc I’m a killer main and every time I try and play survivor it’s miserable, idk if it’s bc most killer players are toxic af. Or it’s just the survivor experience as a whole
Im a survivor main and some killers have fun simply making survivors lives not fun. It really is a struggle sometimes to want to come back and play this game because of it.
All I play is solo-q. For sure has gotten way more difficult recently, doesn’t help that every killer is bringing builds to smash teams of 4, leaving us solo-q players who have zero communication to get stomped hard….then the killer wonders why the team composed of 4 solos are feeling slightly salty when he/she ends us at 3 gens. Those same solo players join a team of 4 and smash killers into submission. And just like that, the cycle continues.
Props for putting out a survivor video! Solo Q survivor is never fun. I feel for survivor mains, such as Pug, whom go such anguish to keep the content coming.
The Solo Q experience over the last few months is what made me start playing killer. Solo Q is horrible- getting tunneled for the majority of the match while gens don't get done, only to be left on hook while the Dwight and Claudette teabag at the gate. Even SWF isn't very fun these days, but I'd rather play a diff game than play Solo Q DBD.
I think Im a bit masochistic because I play mostly soloq BUT what is better (or worse) I love watching terrible experiences from other people with the same thing lmao
yup as a surv main i can agree. and killer releases just keep becoming more and more unfun. Skull merchant and Wesker take the cake on that though with some other killers that just ignore mechanics/ have 1 shots. but we endure. why though i couldnt tell you. maybe for the one day BHVR gives us something decent
With windows what advantage does a survivor have by seeing a breakable wall - I find it distracting when looking for pallets with them both being yellow .
It's nice to see a Killer content creator acknowledge Survivor's pain but on the other hand Spooky has always been a classy guy!
I also don’t like when TH-camrs show busted perk combos to piss off survivors and killers. They kinda fuck up the balancing

Granted I’m a killer main so maybe I don’t play survivor enough to get the miserable feeling, but it’s the complete opposite for me when I play survivor. I usually have 0 stress playing survivor exceptions being usually from other survivors that d/c right away or give up for petty crap. Not discrediting others experiences as clearly from the comments it’s been rough lately but just found it interesting because for me it’s the complete opposite.
Wish red keys were more common in the bloodweb. I got a ton of red bulbs I don't know what to do with XD
at this point i feel like the devs are all killer mains lol
Didn’t know Spooky could juice like this 😵💫
Dbd is a depressing experience without a SWF then when you have a good one a killer cries because the SWF is good saying survivors are to powerful
6:05 Actually, pal, you won't be seein' shit.
I understand your SoloQ pain. I don’t have any friends that play DBD. If you ever want to assemble a SWF team I’d be down.
Solo survivor has been hell because of the other survivors. Every other match I play someone either DCs, suicides on hook, or gives up. Meanwhile when I play killer every other match is filled with survivors who act like their playing against their shitty ex.
either people play killers that aren't fun to play against or people play killers who are and in return they don't have fun its just kinda how it is now days
Incoming seeing this build everywhere
Playing solo has to be one of the most painful things to do in this game. Hell, even playing in a 3 stack can be rough as 1 random is sometimes all it takes for a match to be over before it even begins. Idk what's gotten into people lately, but it's out of control and ruining queuing up with anything less than a 4 stack.
Yeah solo-q rn is so bad tbh. Ive started to NEED to run anti tunnel/camping and slugging perks that i normally wouldnt otherwise the game just becomes so unfun especially when barely even 1 gen gets popped during everything.
My main build has just changed to
Decisive strike, Deliverance, Unbreakable, and Kindred (i usually use kindred anyways but tbh even with it equipped it feels like everyone has the blindness status affect 😭).
I’m so glad spooky loops said it bc I’m a killer main and every time I try and play survivor it’s miserable, idk if it’s bc most killer players are toxic af. Or it’s just the survivor experience as a whole
Thank you for acknowledging the struggle or solo q life.
I think that Wesker was me in the 1st video, if he let you out. 🤭😅
Im a survivor main and some killers have fun simply making survivors lives not fun. It really is a struggle sometimes to want to come back and play this game because of it.
All I play is solo-q. For sure has gotten way more difficult recently, doesn’t help that every killer is bringing builds to smash teams of 4, leaving us solo-q players who have zero communication to get stomped hard….then the killer wonders why the team composed of 4 solos are feeling slightly salty when he/she ends us at 3 gens. Those same solo players join a team of 4 and smash killers into submission. And just like that, the cycle continues.
Props for putting out a survivor video! Solo Q survivor is never fun. I feel for survivor mains, such as Pug, whom go such anguish to keep the content coming.
The Solo Q experience over the last few months is what made me start playing killer. Solo Q is horrible- getting tunneled for the majority of the match while gens don't get done, only to be left on hook while the Dwight and Claudette teabag at the gate. Even SWF isn't very fun these days, but I'd rather play a diff game than play Solo Q DBD.

Let's go another 👻 video!!! Much love bro💪😁
What if you added open handed to increase the aura reading range on the key?
I think Im a bit masochistic because I play mostly soloq BUT what is better (or worse) I love watching terrible experiences from other people with the same thing lmao
11:27 that messed me up, whyyyyyy
Trouble shooter imo is the most underrated perk I ❤it
Trouble Shoot, Alert, Windows, Resilience would be a W build
yup as a surv main i can agree. and killer releases just keep becoming more and more unfun. Skull merchant and Wesker take the cake on that though with some other killers that just ignore mechanics/ have 1 shots. but we endure. why though i couldnt tell you. maybe for the one day BHVR gives us something decent
But that's why survivors get treated like crap by Killers. That one Mikaela teabagging while taking no aggro and no hooks all game.
With windows what advantage does a survivor have by seeing a breakable wall - I find it distracting when looking for pallets with them both being yellow .
Spooky remembering the brain rot cooked survivor experience
