The Nightmare - The Nightmare, or more commonly known as Freddy Krueger, ranks at the top of the list for a number of reasons, almost hilariously so considering how low he sat on the tier lists for so such a long time. For many survivors, Freddy has earned the "Nightmare" name due to the difficulty of playing against him. While survivors are awake, they will be unable to see Freddy if he is further than 32 meters away. From 16 to 32 meters away, they will intermittently see him, and if he is 16 meters or closer then survivors will see him and hear his terror rad

Finally, it is important to use abilities that synergize well with Hillbilly's ability. Teachable perks like Barbeque and Chili play well into Hillbilly's hand and make him a quick and versatile threat for even the most slippery Survivors.

His perks are unique, but none that feel particularly powerful in the long run. Gearhead is great for revealing generators and finding survivors, but if a survivor does not get skill checks due to RNG it is useless. Dead Man's Switch punishes survivors who get off of generators to help a teammate off a hook, but at max level the 45 second timer may not be enough - especially with a coordinated team. Hex: Retribution is also a great perk for finding survivors but Hex totems in general need a rework for them to be viable. If a power can be cleansed in the first 30 seconds of the game it's essentially usel
One of the most important lessons to be learned as a Deathslinger player is to "lead" your shots ahead of a survivor.
