*Should you go for Prestige 1 or Prestige 3?*

Answer: If you're only going to play a few characters only, it's best to go for Prestige 1 to get the perks you want (Tier 1) as soon as possible. Then, level up those few characters to get the Tiers 2 and 3 in the bloodweb.

However, if you want to play SEVERAL characters, then it might be best to go for Prestige 3 on the characters with perks that you want. It will take a little longer, but eventually you will unlock those perks at Tier 3 on everyone.

The amount of passion this guy put into this game is insane.

[ironwolf]

As a Twins main I recommend playing literally anyone else.

[doggo]

The one slight upside of playing on switch is that you get clown and spirit at the start as well. Plus we get 4 frames a year

[SF-nits]

I love the idea of teachables where killers meet up and teach each other their cool tricks and other stuff

[PlushLordOfTheSeas]

For unlockable killers, you didn't talk much about him but Dredge has INSANE mobility with his locker warps, able to zip around and listen for gens being worked on from lockers, and even be extremely unpredictable against SWFs by breaking chases and zipping away to who knows where to harass someone else or come from a different direction. Strong contender for a main imo.

I agree Otz, everyone should start by buying Leatherface and face camping every match :) glad we can agree!

[koriMarikori]

The amount of time this impostor of otz puts into single videos to help his audience out is insane thank you 💜

[ThePppp]

Short summaries like these are nice and all, Otz, but what I really need is a 30 hour guide detailing the optimal bloodweb routes of every possible addon/item/perk path possible.

[sashameri]

I really wish every game had Otz in its community. Absolute legend.

"Demogorgon: no longer available"
with any luck, future DBD players are going to be very confused by that part of the video

[WillowTheGremlin]

Me who owns everyone: “hmmm. Interesting”

[TheMrFancyKiwi]

I don't think Otz gets enough credit for the funny intros he does in every video considering they are always different.

Ended up taking the quiz, and got Oni as top recommendation, while my brother got Wraith.
That quiz is nuts, man.
We both have had a ton of fun with our respective picks, and have been taking time to actively improve at them because the fit is so good.

That extra effort to have the selected character change when you start discussing them is so helpful. Wonderful guide!

I would say that the cliche of “playing both sides” would apply here.

If you’re starting out on one side, make sure you play the other. It helped me so much when I started playing killer that I was an experienced survivor.

[CrystalBlitz]

I always tried to figure out what really fitsmy style, I always hated pallets and wanted my opponents to be injured then I tried legion and he was really fun with jumping over pallets. With his add-ons, he is even more annoying where one of his pins doesn't let the survivor heal for 60 seconds! Pretty pressuring, thank you for this video otz since I actually bought a few killers and wanted to see if they could also be my main as well.

[trisdevision]

Otz: in case you don’t have time for the video, here’s a link for a quiz I made. He’s simply prepared and overachieves everything and I love it. But let’s be real, we all have time to watch otz’s videos. Even if they’re 9 hours

[trainwreck]

Your dbd killer quiz's accuracy is phenomenal. I have a couple killers I love to play as, took your quiz only to find them as my best choice. You made my day Otz, thanks. <3

Love the final fantasy 12 music, first game I played in the fantasy genre, and it has stayed with me as nostalgic. Characters have their charm each in own unique way. The community has couldn't ask for a better content creator, you share and grow with the whole community, thanks Not Otzdarva.
