Every DBD Killer RANKED by Teachable Perks 

Do you agree or disagree with my ranking?

New best combo in the game: huntress perk that makes you undetectable while in blood lust and the alien perk that takes away bloodlust

"Lightborn is a bad perk! Take it off!" "No."

huntress perks are just depressing

Don’t run lightborn, it’s genuinely hurting you” listen, what is hurting me is when i pickup a survivor and get blinded by 3 people at the same time, im tired of that shit and i want them to feel the fear when their flashlights and flashbangs dont work :3

“Don’t run lightborn, it’s genuinely hurting you” you clearly don’t know the amount of survivors I’ll find who will just watch me stare into the flashlight as I run at them, and not realise I have lightborn

In defence of lightborn It's funny to see a swf change to flashlights last second and you change to lightborn Swf will DC sometimes I didn't expect this to be the top comment lol

I disagree with lightborn. Bringing lightborn when a whole team is dedicated to blind you, only for you to ignore it is so satisfying

I guess Kyto can be a bit forgetful, but Terminus isn't useless if no-one is injured when the gates are powered, the Broken effect is always applied as long as the gates are unopened.

Huntress | 0:05 Wraith | 0:47 Oni | 1:10 Freddie | 1:38 Pig | 3:29 Singularity | 7:15 Xenomorph | 8:03 Trapper | 9:05 Nurse | 9:41 Myers | 10:37 Hillbilly | 11:20 Spirit | 13:50 Nemesis | 20:14 Deathslinger | 21:23 Onryō | 22:26 Knight | 23:40 Blight | 24:44 Legion | 25:51 Trickster | 27:08 Clown | 28:02 Plague | 29:19 Artist | 30:25 Pinhead | 31:39

"You should not use lightborn" Me getting massive value of it anyway: The fuck you gon do if I don't?

In defense of franklins, many survivors hate to see their purple beam or medkit go, so its a semi slowdown perk if they try to look for it

Wow who would've guessed that a survivor main doesn't like lightborn and Franklin's

You won't make me change my lightborn. It has given me so many free downs thanks to its ability, i just break the pallet and they lose so much time trying to flash me until it's too late to realize you fucked up. Plus, the aura the clicky users give you it's also a plus.

Lightborn is actually pretty good. I decided to make it a permanent part of my Wesker's build for the memes, since Wesker wears glasses and shouldn't be able to get blinded with light. But I found it to be quite a good perk. The only gimmick is that you really need to pretend like you don't have it for as long as possible, from my experience, most survivors fall for it like mouses for traps. I had countless of situations where after a couple faked flashie dodges, I would look straight at the survivor's beam for multiple seconds and they would not understand what's going on, "he was scared before! he can be blinded! maybe the wrong angle? i'll get him next time". They die and should know better next time and yet they still try to blind me. If you pretend you don't have it and make it look like you're afraid of the flashies, the survivors will be very eager to go at you at every opportunity, basically giving you free hits. They will try to blind you while breaking pallets, not running away and utilizing the distance and giving you free hits. Overall, I consider it a good and fun perk, bringing one more way to mindgame the survivors. Obviously, it's dependent whether the survivors bring flashlights or not. That makes it situational. But if you see at least two flashies, it's worth picking it. And if you see four... This is where the fun begins.

bully squads are usually countered by lightborn

Calling Rapid Brutality Aliens best perks is straight up criminal considering it’s the only one that damages you HEAVILY and half the roster can’t use it. Ultimate weapon is one of the best tracking perks in the game requiring you to only open a locker and know where everyone is in your terror radius. The blindness isn’t useful but it’s not needed

4:12 While Yes, "Make Your Choice" is best used on High Mobility & Teleporting Killers; it also makes it Risky for Survs to Immediately Heal under the Hook because if the Killer comes back to the hook... they either Tunnel the Person off the Hook or Down the Person who saved them. Combine this with Sloppy Bucher or a Mangled Add-on and the person off Hook might Stay Injured, which could result in a Easier down later. Plus, since the Savior is insta-Downable, it forces them to play a bit more cautiously to Not give the killer an Extra hook, meaning they might Hide and/or Stay off Gens for a little bit. It really all depends on the Killer's Play style vs how Survs responses to it

There are so many outdated perks on both sides its crazy how they haven't changed it and reworked them

I honestly love the Plague. She is aesthetically the best designed killer in the game, and I didn't realize until just now how strong all of her perks were. I usually just run corrupt intervention tbh.

*Lightborn is the worst perk* Me who killed flashlight bully squad recently with lightborne: 😕 you for real?

Franklins is so good. Only survivor mains will tell you it’s not, because it literally counters any item they have. No more flashlight saves, no more blinds on pallets, no more fast heals. Pair it with sloppy and nurses and it’s god tier, trust me.

"Zanshin tactics is pretty much only useful on Artist, it's not that useful" ARINAD WANTS TO KNOW YOUR LOCATION

11:42 Lightborn is not "Bad", it's just "Situationally Good". Yes, Equipping it removes Altruistic Counter play on Surv side to save teammates; but in situations where the Killer downs a Surv in the middle of Nothing and has no way to pick up the Surv because of Flashlights, it creates a Lose-Lose Situation for the Killer, which feels terrible. If they Try to chase off the Flashlighter, there isn't any Guarantee that they can get an Injure or down from the Chase if the Flashlighter is far enough away or if they run to a Safe Structure; meanwhile, another Surv can come over and pick up the Down Surv{or Unbreakable} removing all pressure the Killer had. Also, the Aura reveal can be great with Tracking Survs that tried to blind you, and/or with Blastmine

Lightborn is amazing for newer players when you have a bully squad with 4 Flash lights all on coms bullying a new killer then that light imunity is amazing.

Lightborn is the best perk solely based on the amount of survivors it tilts when I have it equipped.

I love how he ranks 32 killers for 32 minutes 😅

Man be mad about lightborn stealing his saves. Sucks that the perk is super effective against infinity beam range cheaters.

I always forget that brutal strengh is a trapper perk and not just a genarell

Sorry, but Lightborn stays in. It's my meme/comfort/accessibility perk that saves me from migraines until we get an option to turn the blind effect dark, but we're not counting on that any time soon. Also the best tool to counter bully squads and their love for torches and flashbangs. Nothing like pretendign you're just good at avoiding blinds most of the match only to eventually march right into their beam of light to whack them over the head. The aura reading is a nice bonus. I may also add that I main Wesker and Albert without his sunglasses isn't happening in this house. I rather do Lightborn only matches for funsies. Always delightful when you clear the room and your survivors have to accept that they were defeated by a pair of sunglasses that has a middle-aged dude attached to it. But that aside, a nice list. A little surprised to not hear Starstruck mentioned in combination with Awakened Awareness.

12:03 Meg thomas mains trying to make me sell my soul and unequip lightborn, because then they would have to do gens instead of blinding me every 7 seconds. Also franklins demise is so fun you are basically trolling survivors. Lethal pursuier good ? You're falling off man im sorry to say it

Franklins is actually fantastic on certain killers bc you know damn well someone’s gonna be running back for them. Wether it’s a teammate or the person themself someone will go grab the item. Don’t full on camp the item. But I always mental note the area to go check on it and most of the time I see other survivors or themselves running back for their flashlights or medkits. I love this perk.

2:02 "Remember me" is used to Delay the Exit gates either with "No Way Out" and/or in the End Game to try to get an extra kill. The 1 trade off with the perk is that the Obsession can NOT be the one to opening the Gate because they aren't affected; insure the 1 kill, and its a Long 3v1 Endgame. It's a Gimmick Insurance: No Way is better for the role, but its better used with it in a Comeback

I understand that lightborn might feel like a wasted perk slot to some but considering most of my matches at this point consist of me downing somebody and 1 or 2 of their friends are following and hiding nearby for the flashlight save and my options are getting shafted by the save or spend even more time chasing them off and faking the pick up...i think ill stick with LB so i can just pick and carry on with the match lol

Lightborn: makes premade flashlight players angry. Worth it.

In defense of lightborn: It is a huuuuuge counter to those survivors who have flashlights or flashbangs, prevents you from being blinded mid chase or while grabbing a survivor, and lets you mind game survivors if you pretend to avoid the flashlights. It's something of a safety net, sure, but a safety net is always useful no matter how skilled you are. Those matches where you can't do anything because survivors are a hive mind and amazing at stunning and blinding? Boom, their strategy loses at least 50% effectiveness if not more.

I'm waiting for the survivor version. (I love your videos kyto keep it up ❤)

OMG, I never knew that Make Your Choice’s scale was two hooks back to back! I always love the little and clever things that devs add to their games! 4:12

Can't believe he forgot to mention demogorgon. He has so many useful teachables after the stranger things license expired.

0:08 WHO THE HELL GAVE DAVID A GUN?!

That rant against lightborn was weird asf

I have an Insanely overpowered niche way of using Coulrophobia. If you use Wesker with Coulrophobia, Distressing, Sloppy, and Unnerving Presence, and bring a Midwich offering, survivors cannot get out of your terror radius without being on the literal opposite side of the map. As Wesker, your moving all over the map so they can never be out of your terror radius for long. The only real counter to be able to heal against build that I've found has been Autodidact which is extremely underrated and not many people use it. 🧀

You forgot how mad amazing thanathobia is with plague. Also Lightborn is underrated Not good by any means but it catches survivors off guard a lot.

I think Pig is a bit too low since Surveillance is one of the best and reliable info perks, it works with most killers from all gen to 3 gen, even without perks like Jolt or Ruin. Works great with killers that can ignore walls, stealth killers and Knight. Got Knight few days ago and it works great with Nowhere To Hide, you kick gen you find out if anyone is hiding nearby, then you leave the place and you always know if someone is back on that gen. As a bonus you get very good sound info on 2 floor maps. Maybe im noob, but i use Surveillance very often

Y'all rate this build Demogorgon: Barbs glasses, black liver, enduring, Hex: Devour hope, hex: haunted grounds andsave the best for last

Time stamp of all the killers in each order, numbered for those who wanna watch the video spoiler free 32 - 0:05 31 - 0:47 30 - 1:09 29 - 1:38 28 - 2:30 27 - 3:31 26 - 4:28 25 - 5:29 24 - 6:13 23 - 7:14 22 - 8:03 21 - 9:04 20 - 9:41 19 - 10:35 18 - 11:40 17 - 12:37 16 - 13:49 15 - 15:03 14 - 16:04 13 - 17:31 12 - 18:46 11 - 20:14 10 - 21:23 9 - 22:26 8 - 23:40 7 - 24:44 6 - 25:52 5 - 27:08 4 - 28:02 3 - 29:18 2 - 30:24 1 - 31:35

Legion actually no longer benefits from vault speed increases from perks like bamboozle while in frenzy. I believe the window block still works in frenzy, but if you’re just trying to chain hits it’s not going to be too useful

furtiv chase can be useful in certain builds, for example in a myers build: If you use furtiv chase with monitor and abuse and dead rabbit, you have no terrorradius at 4 tokens. And if you pair that with vaniy mirror and devour + undying, you have a scratched mirrir thombstone myers. And if you want to meake it extra scary, bring a mapoffering for a indoormap, its just so great, you could say its a lore accurate myers build. Give it a try, you wont regret it

You also forgot to mention that Ruin deactivates if you kill a survivor, so if someone quits by killing themselves on hook you lose Ruin. They absolutely destroyed Ruin.

Aliens perks being “mediocre” is a quote that definitely didn’t age well, dude ultimate weapon is busted good it’s oh here’s everyone and also they get blindness for 30s. And rapid brutality is great for chase on basic atk killers.

🧀 I guessed Cenobite right before he was picked for #1! Great video Kyto! Now I know who to level up first because of this!

Bro your videos are so good really keep up the good work and wish you the best of luck on RU-vid❤

i’m sure the perk will be nerfed when it gets added but ultimate weapon is one of (if not THE) best info perks in the game. if it stays the same as it was in ptb its genuinely one of the best perks in general imo so i think that should bring xeno up a bit higher

“Mad grit is bad” 2 words THE MEMES

Every single time I take off lightborn, I'm unable to get a single hook stage and I get teabagged. Yet every time I use it, I can get at least 1 hook stage. Ergo, Lightborn is a good perk for me. I will be convinced by none of this Lightborn bigotry.

Bros mad about not being able to blind ppl with lightborn

forgot to mention that mad grit also removes the cooldown for missed m1's while carrying which is rlly the only reason ppl use that perk like when paired with agitation/starstruck/awakened awareness. def buffs the perk/legions spot a little more imo

*Demogorgon has left the chat*

Honestly I like lightborne for accessibility reasons. My eyes are extra sensitive to bright light (even on not super sunny days I usually need sunglasses) and there's no way to change how being flashlighted works. I'd genuinely rather my screen just turn off during a blind than deal with the actual eye pain I get from being spam flashlighted for an entire match.

I actually run lightborn on my doctor build Sure it takes up a slot but you'd be surprised how fricking powerful and reliable it has been A perk which basically nullifies a entire mechanic of the game that most survivors would usually try to abuse I can't tell you how satisfying it is to staredown a survivor foolishly trying to blind me instead of running before introducing them to their consequence

I need a video about DBD Survivors ranked by teachable perks now.

I found bloodhound to be really nice with sloppy butcher But i’m guessing overtime people just get better at noticining the blood stains

0:35 One time I hit the start of a great skill check and it said I gave the huntress lullaby a token 6:33 if you hit someone with dissolution while they are vaulting it can break the pallet 20:27 people with Vigo’s shroud across the map: 😈

1) Territorial Imperative can be very good on basement builds on killers like Pyramid, Hag, Trapper, Artist, Dredge or Huntress herself. 2) Lullaby can be good on build with merciless storm or such things. 3) Zanshin tactics can be very good if you know common tiles well and how to deal with them properly, also can be good to setup traps, and for "triangle" setup with no safe places around. 4) Rapid brutality can be good on killers like Clown who cannot use bloodlust, because with their abilities it constantly reset. 5) Ultimate weapon just one of the best perk for searching survs and only Calm Spirit can counter that. So Xenomorph definitely cant be placed #22. 6) Freddy's Blood Warden and Remember me both are excellent perks for endgame builds. You can even get guaranteed Blood warden by opening gates himself and hook dying state survivor on nearest hook with Freddys addon, the Knight addon etc. and even without that normal people usually just cant leave unlucky teammate who heal them whole game etc so Blood Warden setup guaranteed in almost every endgame situation because altruistic nature.

Thanatophobia is great on Legion, I use it for gen stall :)

28:37 "Coulrophobia" is a Perk that's good when other Factors are in play. Such as with Doctor's Madness Tier 2; or Unnerving Presence, or even in Indoor maps. By itself, it's Easy to play around; however, if you{Surv} can't get out of range or if the Killer goes in & out of range for the perk, it can be very annoying to deal with. Also, the Perk affects Survs trying to pick up other Survs off the Ground; which in a Slugging situation, could result in 2 Downs instead of a save.

I was shocked to see Legion so high up, I’ve been told that his perks are bad for “good” players lmao, I still run Mad Grit to bully bully squads though lmao

I throw Lightborn in when going against a bully squad of flashlights and flashbangs. Then it's the best perk in the game.

Lightborn is good when you haven’t quite gotten good at avoiding flashlights and flash bangs it has no downside and if you think you might be going against a bully squad run it it’s not as bad as Kyto said

Franklins is a good perk since alot of survs want their items back and the flashlights getting depleted is really good because it let's you not have to worry about the flashlights towards the end of the game and youre at lower risk when you need to pickup in the middle of the open

I swear kyto is just trolling with these rankings sometimes.

hello, i just wanted to let the people know about that perk got nerfed 11:12 you will lose now your tokens if the obsession gets injured in anyway. that means you can't use any power like the demogorgon's power or the huntres's axes. like i told you will lose your two stacks if the obsession gets injured in anyway. at the 18:52 that perk got changed, if you hook your obsession you will get 5% haste and your teroradious will be hiden, the both are just for 18 seconds.

Now that Furtive Chase has been buffed to give you undetectable AND haste, it's one of my favorite perks to run on Clown. I use his yellow bottles and the Furtive Chase haste to rocket around the map and surprise people on gens. I pair this perk with Thrilling Tremors, another one of Ghost Face's perks, so that I know what gens are being worked on, which helps me rocket towards them and catch survivors off guard. I'm All Ears is also an amazing perk for Deathslinger (coming from a Deathslinger main) since it allows you line up shots before you get line of sight on the survivor you're chasing, making it much harder for Survivors to play around corners. Ghost Face has some of my favorite perks, especially due to Furtive Chase being buffed.

I just got back into dbd and I didn’t really know what perks are good anymore after all the changes and this video was perfect and helped me so much!

I know demogorgon got removed and his perks are in every skill tree but did you rank him? Where and why?

I appreciate that you give us a bit of gameplay of the killer you’re actually talking about at the time

I love how 7 months ago Ultimate Weapon was only described as just 'pretty decent' and not meta changing like it is currently.

Lightborn is good if theres four flashlights and you have a 3 perk build, its okay but very situational, if you dont like flashlights run Franklins

“Lightborn is making you a worse player” Me who’s at iridescent rank 1 killer every season so far, constantly getting 4-kill games, and uses lightborn: “interesting” Edit: you lost all credibility the second you said slugging is cringe. Slugging is a necessity sometimes, mainly with sabo-squads. Lightborn is a necessity sometimes too, like on open outdoor maps where there aren’t a lot of walls to look at. Sounds like someone is just upset about losing more than a few matches to these playstyles 🧀

Insanely useful knowledge once again. Love you kyto ❤️ 🧀

Distressing,overcharge,agitation,face the darkness

Well, imo Rapid Brutality and Ultimate Weapon are both extremely decent, because in my experience, if i am starting to gain bloodlust - that means i am already overextending the chase, and at this moment it's already better to just leave and spook the survivors off the generator. So for me it's better to get the value right in chase than have the bloodlust which serves me as a marker that the chase is already overextended

You underestimate Lightborn it's actually very useful because I use it and win a majority of my games by using it and just tunneling and camping slugging

He has the worst lightborne take EVER 😂, tbf he's a flashlight bully

Some of these choices are... bizarre. Terminus for example. Shuts down adrenaline, its best effect, which you completely failed to mention.

Vecna: *releases* Franklins: "Now it's my time to shine"

0:05 - The Huntress. 0:46 - The Wraith. 1:10 - The Oni. 1:38 - The Nightmare. 2:30 - The Twins. 3:31 - The pig. 4:28 - The Skull Merchant. 5:29 - The pyramid head. 6:13 - The Dredge. 7:15 - The Singularity. 8:03 - The xenomorph. 9:05 - The Trapper .

Bro says every item countering perk is bad just cuz lil bro wants to keep his brand new part lootbox and clicker

thanks for this video man, I came back to DBD and this is so helpful. Grinding towards rank 1

Dude that nemesis clip where he gets a double hit is nutty

Territorial could be huge now with invocations coming

watching this because i havent played dbd in a long time and im catching up with what they added😂😂

Hillbilly get's insane value from Lightborn and Starstruck combo. Bully squads will always receive a humbling and not many people expect billy to come with Starstruck given his M2.

8:25 Alien Instinct kinda feels on par w/ Barbeque & Chilli imo. *BBQ & Chilli* *+* shows the aura of all survivors *+* works regardless of their health state *-* survivors hv to be at least 40m away (& not in a locker) *Alien Instinct* *-* only shows one survivor's aura *-* need to hv at least one survivor injured for it work *+* it works at any range *+* the survivor gains the Oblivious status effect for 20s. Plus, you can pair it w/ perks like Coulrophobia, Scourge Hook: Gift of Pain, Septic Touch, Sloppy Butcher, Thanatophobia, Forced Penance, etc to get more value from it.

11:43 that was the survivor in him talking lol

Quick tip dunno if he mentions this. Any and all licensed killers will always cost real money or equivalent. Thus use your real money purchases on licenced killers. Buy the others with iridescent shards.

I have an idea for a complete replacement change of huntress perks 1. Hunting ground -whenever your in a chase anyone in your terror radius is revealed until the chase ends or if they leave 2. Silent predator When you get stunned or blinded by any means any survivor within 8 meters of you will be slowed down for 6 seconds 3. Hex: easy prey As long as the hex is active anytime your in chase your speed is increased by 15% for 10 seconds

Mad grit also makes it so missed attacks have no cooldown. It is good for if survivors try to stop you from hooking, because baited swings mean nothing.

lightborn is literally the most essential perk in the game, immunity to being blinded is so powerful when against a flashlight team, and this coming from a survivor, get your rankings in check lil bro 🙏🙏

I remember first ever going against ranchor... didn't get hooked once but as soon as those gates opened I had a target on my back because she tunneled me
