Four outcast teenagers who, after a shared murder, sealed their pact in stab wounds out of boredom and loyalty.

Builds

Builds updated on .

How to use these builds

Builds 1, 4 and 5 are for public matches: more relaxed games to have fun, practise and learn.

Build 2 is for tournaments: a general competitive recommendation. Check each tournament’s bans before using it.

Build 3 is for new players: it uses the killer’s own perks, perks from the five free killers or general perks, without needing every killer at prestige 3.

Gameplay tips
If there's no one nearby after the first power hit (or Killer Instinct shows them far away), stay on the survivor you already injured instead of chasing the distant one.
Never cancel your power by hitting the survivor: it gives them a speed burst and costs you distance. Body block them instead, or close in and cancel the power yourself.
It is worth using your power on unhooks: you cancel the rescue animation, injure them, and when they go for the save again you cancel your power and finish with an M1.
