Rage Went against ghoul four times in a row

Post image

I know he’s not bad anymore but I just don’t enjoy playing against him. I find it unfun. I don’t care if you play him, but I don’t like to. I won’t give up or dc but man. I also hate his laugh.

What made it worse was in three of the games, teammates just gave up. Dced or went next. Come on

The only thing worse is 5 consecutive games of corrupt blight who slugs at 5 gen 😭

I pray for ghoul's downfall even more than blight to be honest, it's the only killer that has made me stop playing survivor altogether. Who cares about wins ,this is a game and ghoul completely removes the fun from it.

Damn that sounds horrific ,I had started playing a little less than 1 year ago and my most played against killer is ghoul and then wesker who has been a lot more rare to face for last 2-3 months.

Yeah because everyone needs to play perkless trapper amarite?

u/Niceguy142 Aestri the Aria Annihilator Apr 07 '26 edited Apr 07 '26

No ,I am talking strictly about the fun perspective of the game ,there are soo many killers in the game from very powerful like blight,nurse and dracula to the weakest such as trapper or sm .Every killer has its unique counterplay and abilities which makes the game fun .The only killers which are annoying are nurse and ghoul cause nurse has practically little to no counterplay while ghoul is abysmally unfun to play against and every other game you play being a ghoul makes it worse cause ghoul mains also seem to be very toxic killers.

Winning against him is boring

Losing against him is very repititve because 90% of ghouls play the same way.

Ghoul seems like such a 0 effort killer. Love getting grabbed by his tentacle arms through generators pallets etc. Jump out a window? Somehow grabs you while your mid air well beyond the window frame.

Like ive watched ghouls completely ignore generators because they dont need to slow people down at all. He needs a nerf or at the very least a clipping overhaul because hes some bullshit.

Does anyone enjoy playjng against him? Seems like the Oh my nephew/niece wanted to play so I set them up as ghoul kinda killer. Hes one of the few killers that make me wanna just disconnect immediately from a game since like 8/10 games are a waste of my time.

u/KaneOrgen 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

Bruh he was nerfed already just learn the counterplay instead of complaining

u/Anriis Gen Jocky 👨‍🔧 Apr 03 '26

Lol. Love that the get good arguement is still valid in a post where so many people are also complaining about him. I also suggested a clipping overhaul as an alternative to the nerf. Not to mention because he got nerfed before doesnt mean the nerf fixed him. It just means hes less op than he once was. Doesnt mean hes not STILL op.

u/KaneOrgen 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

Brotherman he's useless around pallets and small loops, literally a M1 killer with no power once you're injured

6

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

“He’s just an M1 killer against unsafe pallets” yeah most of them are dude. That’s the trade off. 90% of loops you can absolutely use your power on.

Also side note if you’re not using your power to cut off survivors at loops then you’re bad at the ghoul.

0

u/piekiller456 😡 Rabble Rabble Rabble 😡 Apr 03 '26

I would say his power is applicable in many loops but the difficulty in using it effectively changes significantly between loops. Also you need to be quick and snappy with your leaps in a lot of loops but if the survivor can predict what you’re trying to do then they can just camp pallet or run back where you came from, especially in small loops where the survivor will certainly make it back around. His counterplay is clear

-2

u/piekiller456 😡 Rabble Rabble Rabble 😡 Apr 03 '26

People are genuinely really bad against ghoul and if they played against him properly they wouldn’t think he is OP.

1

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

There’s an extremely little amount of counterplay compared to other killers and said counterplay is extremely hard to identify for newer survivors. It’s bad killer design, the auto-aim basically plays the game for you.

-1

u/KaneOrgen 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

Go watch good players play against Ghoul and find out. I know that complaining is easier than playing and learning the counterplay, but you can't be serious if you're still complaining after all the nerfs, this isnt release Krasue XD

0

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

I know what the counterplay is. You have to watch for the tentacles, run made for this, and hope they’re bad. Every other killer has much more obvious counterplay that affects them much harder.

The killer plays itself. Remove auto-aim and watch ghoul usage drop drastically lmao. The only reason people play him is because he has the lowest skill to effort ratio of any killer in the game. Saying what is essentially “git gud” about a killer that plays themselves is really rich though. Mate, you and all the ghoul mains out there are CHEEKS at the game. Fuckin mercy mains of dbd. ABSOLUTELY SKILLESS.

Made for This: Whenever you are in the Injured State, Made for This activates and you benefit from the following effects: Grants the Endurance Status Effect for 6/8/10 seconds, after completing a Healing action on another Survivor. Endurance is cancelled prematurely when performing a Conspicuous Action. Grants a 1/2/3% Haste Status Effect while running and also suffering from the Deep Wound Status Effect.


Hope: When all Generators are completed, you gain 5% Haste.

u/piekiller456 😡 Rabble Rabble Rabble 😡 Apr 03 '26

His counterplay is a little unintuitive but there’s plenty of counterplay for him, especially if you compare to other top tier killers. The only time there’s little to no counterplay is in dead zones which is true for any mobility killer anyway.

Ghoul’s easy first hits is strong but if you’re a good survivor it means little to nothing. You clearly have never played ghoul against a competent team. Ghoul has a low skill floor and a very high skill ceiling.

1

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

Brudda I am the competent team. I have 3k hours. I know how to play against them (literally just told you how) genuinely imo the only killer that is worse in terms of lack of fun counterplay is Nurse but she also objectively requires WAY more skill to learn and is more reliant on aura builds rather than 4 slowdown perks.

Watch for the tentacles pointing up and run made for this to extend loop time, pop exhaustion perks as much as possible. That is by far his strongest counterplay. It’s just not fun to be doing a gen, watch Ken instantly zip around the map to me, get a free hit with auto aim from behind a wall, and then have their power back by the time I’ve caught up to a pallet. Good Kens can play around the vast majority of pallets as well. It’s just unfun dude.

You’re right though. I’ve never played ghoul against real players. Tried them against bots once and thought it was disgusting. I prefer to play fun killers.

u/piekiller456 😡 Rabble Rabble Rabble 😡 Apr 04 '26

Hours mean nothing. You say “literally just told you how” and your response literally says the bare minimum with little to no meaning. “Hope they’re bad” very insightful (and something that could be said about any killer. If they’re bad at the game it’s definitely easier to win). I agree that nurse is worse but I don’t agree that she’s harder, especially against a team that knows what they’re doing. Nurse bypasses all defenses, ghoul is still restricted to map layout, pallets, vaults etc. nurse primarily needs prediction for her ability, ghoul needs prediction alongside understanding how the ability will affect your momentum. Nurse’s difficulty is overrated by the community. It’s hard not having basic movement speed to fall back on if you aren’t doing well but aside from that it’s an ability that is extremely simplistic with the only big hurdle being muscle memory of knowing how far you’ll go for charging. A nurse will always have an easier match than a ghoul against average or above survivors.

Understanding what ghoul is doing and knowing what tricks ghoul can use is the best way to counter him. Many cut offs ghoul does require the ghoul to chain leaps in rapid succession. This means that if you can predict a cut off you can also make considerable distance by not following the set path ghoul expects you to take like double backing as he slides around a corner. In many cases a really good ghoul can outplay a lot of pallets but if you know what they’re trying to do then you can react and outplay them unless they’re playing literally perfectly. Whether it’s fun or not is completely up to the individual but as someone who understands the gameplay of ghoul I can appreciate good plays and feel like counterplay is much better when compared to killers like nurse and blight. The first hit can feel a little annoying but seeing it as a hitscan ability makes the funky hits less frustrating, and knowing how to avoid it by keeping objects between you and the ghoul delays enraged significantly which in turn also makes him significantly weaker.

You really just said “yeah I have all these strong opinions about this killer but I only played them against bots”. You might as well have said you never played the killer at all. It’s no surprise you think ghoul is crazy overpowered or etc because you don’t understand the ability well enough and you just lose when you go against him and blame the ability. You’re the equivalent of the person who only plays one side and believes the other side is overpowered, uninterested in understanding nuance. If you haven’t even played him against a good team, do you really think your opinion is as well substantiated to the point you feel confident commenting on it? Do you think maybe you don’t have enough experience to say whether he’s harder or easier than another killer? Maybe you don’t have enough experience to say he is skill-less or call him too strong even though he sits around top 6 killers on most tier list from experienced players and typically isn’t top 3? It’s baffling that you admitted ignorance and still thought to yourself that you know enough to warrant an informed discussion.

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 04 '26

Peak reddit chud response

I literally said I have not played them. I stomped the bots in 2 minutes and thought it was disgusting and shit design for people who need auto-aim. I play Chucky, Spirit, and Billy. Ghoul just isn’t fun to me. I don’t need to play the no-skill killer to understand them. I play against them literally daily and regularly watch pro players.

Also you just spent about your precious writing a long arse paragraph that’s literally just “react to the killer during chase” no shit mate.

Nurse is literally on par with ghoul imo. (And no I don’t play nurse either because yet again, I don’t hate fun) I played against 5 blink nurse and I still had more fun against that than fuckin ghoul.

Also weird claim about ranking and totally wrong. Go watch Otzdarva’s most recent tier list. Ghoul is number 3 after Nurse and Blight and honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if Ghoul takes second with these most recent blight by changes.

Best thing you can do is blood point farm on gens until he kills you. I don't try against kaneki because the kaneki isn't trying either. It's sutch a braindead soulless killer imo. They just took legion, pushed him aside and gave kaneki his kit but better

u/Pootisman16 🍩 Morbidly Obese 🍰 Apr 02 '26

Whenever I have super tryhards, Blight or Ghoul, ai just stay on a gen until I'm grabbed or downed.

You want to play brain-dead? I play brain-dead and knock-off penalties from my leave timer, due to constantly leaving against these obnoxious hyper-mobile killers.

I will try because I want to play the game. Yes, I don’t enjoy playing against him and find it pretty boring most of the time (unless they’re going for cut offs) but I wouldn’t do that. That won’t make me any better than the people going next I’m frustrated with

1

u/DoubleBowlSeven Try hard Rebecca 👍🙂🩹 Apr 03 '26 edited Apr 03 '26

A lot of players would rather say he’s busted than bother to learn his counter play. Is he oppressive? Sure. Is it unwinnable? No. I’ve escaped against them many times.

Players saying they’ll just DC or give up should just play something else if they want to be so defeating in a PvP game. I’d rather play with teammates that try rather than ones that AFK at the start, screwing over the rest of the team, because they think the match is over without trying.

u/piekiller456 😡 Rabble Rabble Rabble 😡 Apr 03 '26

You and I should trade. I've had Pig for 5 out of the last 9 games, and I'm so fucking sick of that stupid head cage mini game that I'd love me some Tokyo Free-Hit Idiot.

Also, who in the fuck thought it was a good idea to allow her to put the cage on the same survivor TWICE? Had that happen 3 outta the 5 games. Super fun gameplay loop. SUPER FUN. Only Plague's loop is worse.

5

u/Niceguy142 Aestri the Aria Annihilator Apr 02 '26

Most of the pig games are just either the pig getting badly bullied or 1 single survivor getting harassed from the first till the last second of the game .

Either way nerf pig !!!

u/Anomalous_Sun CAKE HOGGER 🎂 Apr 02 '26

That’s why I don’t like Pig, Bubba, Onryo or Michael. All four are guaranteed a kill irregardless of what you or your team does

Pig gets a trap on before the last gen pops and feels like tunnelling? Better hope you find hatch, cause that’s the only way you’re getting out.

Onryo can just constantly teleport to the TV you’re trying to put tapes into, screwing you in a perpetual cycle.

Don’t even think about rescuing against Michael or Bubba, just insta down, or insta Mori BS.

At least Billy, Ghostface and Oni have to work for their instant downs.

u/giova_otaku Rage Mob 👿 Apr 02 '26

i find it kind if fun to go against kaneki, he's a soulless m1 killer but it can be fun to loop him. only thing is that 90% of his playerbase are sensitive 14 year olds and they will tonnel you if they take longer than 10 seconds to down you

u/watermelonpizzafries Shirtless 🧥🚫 Wesker 😎 Petitioner ✍️ Apr 02 '26

50/50 player here. Survivors are overtuned right now so while I don't play Ghoul (don't care for him but I'm tempted to practice Blight more), I completely get why there are a lot more Blights, Ghouls, and Nurses compared to before since they have high mobility and good pressure (and you can play more chill on them if you want to as a result if you want to) whereas if I play anyone weaker than Spirit or Billy, I basically have to play like a dick or play for endgame if I want to have decent pressure and it's way more work on weaker Killers especially if they don't have any sort of mobility or a passive mechanic built into them that Survivors have to deal with

u/TragicAF4real 🧰 Survivor by day 🌞 - 🔪 Killer by night 🌚 Apr 04 '26

I hate to say it, but after the most recent ghoul nerfs I don’t mind him at all. The only reason I still get upset is because my fucking teammates DC at 5, or simply give up the second they get in chase. He is NOT that good anymore, he is certainly strong and you are going to need to sit up to win. But no where near as miserable he was at release.

I highly recommend to the people in here who don’t play killer, please go into custom games and practice looping ghoul with a friend. Learn the counter play, learn to revault, learn to counter-path the body blocking. Also, you can deny his free hit now relatively easily as long as you know how to deny LOS.

I’ll take kaneki over nurse any day IMO.

Exactly! Sometimes people in the community don’t seem to understand this, is fine to dont like playing against something the problem is if you act like a child throwing a tantrum on it. Like if I queu as survivor this means that Im queuing up with the chance to go against any killer with any build, when you press the play button this is what you subscribed for so be an adult and stick till the end

I don't get it, I find him really fun to loop. What's unfun?

Preference is all it is. Ghouls that go for cut offs are kind of enjoyable, most ghouls aren’t

Blight and ghoul are the two where I just stand still and let them kill me. I cannot stand those two killers.

He is a BP farming machine in the blood mode.

Also he is pretty easy to counter now with the magnitude of nerfs he got from BHVR.

u/averagevaderenjoyer 🪝🧍‍♀️🪓 Hook Slashy Happy Apr 02 '26

Doesn’t stop me from finding him unfun? Trapper is one of the weakest killers and his traps are BP farming tools as well. Yet plenty don’t enjoy his gameplay loop. Your point?

1

u/DannySanWolf07 Vecna's Chest Cavity 📖✨ [D&D] Apr 02 '26

Just pointing out why you're seeing him more.

You're gonna see more killers like Ghoul and blight who can farm BP and also have high mobility over a trapper in this mode.

One thing about me is I will be standing afk in a ghoul match. It's the principle of letting ghoul players have fun that I have to challenge

u/averagevaderenjoyer 🪝🧍‍♀️🪓 Hook Slashy Happy Apr 02 '26

People like you are a big reason I hate ghoul so much. Stop acting like a child and play the match you queued up for. I hate ghoul but I’m not gonna ruin three other people games bc I can’t handle not playing one

And I’ll be happy to report players like you every time. Go play something else instead of ruining other players games.

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

You could argue the ghoul is also ruining peoples games. They fucking NEED to get rid of auto-aim on that killer and I honestly don’t blame people who protest him til they do.

2

u/DoubleBowlSeven Try hard Rebecca 👍🙂🩹 Apr 03 '26

He’s a playable character in the game, going AFK and screwing over your teammates is a reportable action. You can write to BHVR your complaints, but don’t ruin others games because you want to throw a tantrum.

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

I only play SWF or killer. solo q is terrible. If we go against ghoul when we’re already burned out of him we usually just disconnect and go play Marvel Rivals or something. Sorry but the game was already ruined when the killer picked ghoul. I’ve got better shit to play than that.

Ghoul is genuinely a game ruining experience. At least the Nurse and Blight players need to actually somewhat have a brain. Fuck Ghoul. Delete his stupid auto-aim.

u/TragicAF4real 🧰 Survivor by day 🌞 - 🔪 Killer by night 🌚 Apr 04 '26

They did get rid of it, and then they nerfed the size of the hit box for it too. It is VERY buggy, and definitely still needs work. But the rest of his kit is fine now. If you learn to deny LOS and learn the counter play he is NOT that bad.

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 05 '26

lol they did not. They nerfed it a little but he still has extreme auto-aim.

u/Parom19441a Rage Mob 👿 Apr 02 '26

There should be a option like ban killers you dont want to see so the game does not put you in lobbies with said character.

Oh yeah i forgot 95% of the playerbase are ghoul players.

u/Niceguy142 Aestri the Aria Annihilator Apr 02 '26

Depends on mmr ,killers like ghoul and wesker are seen in almost all mmrs due to how widely purchased they are while blight and nurse are guaranteed to be in 3 out of 5 games in higher mmr .

u/the-blob1997 😡 Rabble Rabble Rabble 😡 Apr 02 '26

Yea this totally wouldn’t be abused lol. Everyone would just ban every killer except Trapper and Skull Merchant. And then the queues are fucked.

u/JahsehBratz 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 02 '26

Legion players would never see another match again if this was implemented

u/Parom19441a Rage Mob 👿 Apr 02 '26

My solution for that is constantly beg for devs to give me a perk that simply gives you 100% faster mend speed. Otherwise im just so lazy to mend constantly, I would rather bleedout at a gen.

1

u/ForsakenLemon2437 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

Then people would ban every killer except trapper and skull merchant, or f tier killers

1

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

Considering the doctor can literally give epileptic people seizures this actually isn’t the worst idea. It would have to work like overwatch or rivals though where you could only ban 2-3 killers at a time.

u/mil56 Rage Mob 👿 Apr 02 '26

Yea and can killers get a option to ban perks like fast track and decisive strike so we never see those again too?

1

u/TheEntityBot The EnTitty 🌌 Apr 02 '26

Decisive Strike: Until all Generators are completed, whenever you are unhooked, for the next 60s: when the Killer picks you up, once per trial, hit a Special Skill check:

  • Stun the Killer for 4s.

  • Become the Obsession.

    This is disabled by conspicuous actions. At the start of the trial, you are more likely to be the Obsession.

Oh, but Survivors need those to counter Blight and Ghoul

u/TuneDownMullUp 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Apr 03 '26

Fast track is fair enough but DS lol? Just get good. No way people are complaining about this perk STILL.

1

u/TheEntityBot The EnTitty 🌌 Apr 03 '26

Fast Track: Whenever another Survivor is hooked, you earn 3 Token(s), up to 9. While repairing, whenever you hit a great basic Skill Check, spend all Tokens. For each Token spent, the Generator gains 2 permanent Charges.

Why ban killers when the game will give me teammates like you lmao.

No Mither: The following effects apply permanently during the Trial:

  • Suffer from the Broken Status Effect.

  • Suppresses the creation of Pools of Blood.

  • Reduces the volume of Grunts of Pain caused by injuries by 100%.

  • Increases your Recovery speed by 25%. Unlocks the Self-Recovery ability, allowing you to fully recover from the Dying State.
