Dead by Daylight's got a new #1 Killer thanks to a rework earlier in the year.
Dead by Daylight has 35 Killers right now with each of them fluctuating in their standing in terms of effectiveness and play rates as new updates and changes release, but even with all those characters available, the most popular Killer over the past couple of months has been a character available since the very start of Dead by Daylight.
Behaviour Interactive published some Dead by Daylight stats this week to show where the Killer meta stood from the end of January to mid-March. As usual, The Huntress is right near the top with the hatchet-throwing Killer currently holding the No. 2 spot with a 7% pick rate from January 31st to March 11th. Right ahead of her, however, is The Hillbilly who sported an 8% pick rate during that timeframe.
For context and to show just how much of a jump this was for The Hillbilly, the previous No. 1 Killer the last time stats were shared in February was Chucky. The Child's Play Killer came out in November 2023, so it makes sense that from the previously cited timeframe of December 30th to January 29th, he'd be on top in terms of pick rate.
So, what was it that made The Hillbilly rocket to the top of the most-picked Killers during that timeframe? The biggest change to note was the rework for his chainsaw power which allowed the Killer to go into Overdrive. While his add-ons were changed, too, the Overdrive effect outlined below was the biggest boon for The Hillbilly when the 7.5.
While his pick rate increased, so did his kill rate. He went from a 54% kill rate to 63%, and while that stat wasn't reported for every other Killer, it made for a noticeable change for The Hillbilly.
