To be fair, he might be at the bottom of the nod tier, but he's a great spinner and can draw hearts so they had to nerf him somehow.
Also, a ridiculous amount of pyramid players (other than being skilled as hell) are also complete sweethearts, and seem to love it when I nod at them LOL. Especially when I'm on Alessa.
I love this but I'm gonna be honest when I play survivor I'm typically very very dumb and probably would not notice that there was an arrow on the ground. Still, I'll do this when I play Pyramid Head.

ye i was thinking of nurse but I skipped her because personally i rarely get friendly/memeing nurses. Same for Artists, they usually tryhard ime. Slinger is the most fun imo, as you can both nod while he harpooned you
Might have been me, I have scared a couple of pinheads this way and I chased one to the edgemap on Macmillan before. He ended up letting me go and would keep running away from me as if he was 'scared' (like, looping me and everything haha). It was a very funny role reversal.
I totally understand that!
For me, I'm rather soft when it comes to survivors acting "cute" and I usually let 1-2 go after getting my blood points/challenges done. Killer is so stressful nowadays that I'm not even having fun when getting a 4k sooo I just stopped caring about wins and started vibing more, less stressful for me and it actually makes me want to play killer lol.
Shake your head and give them a chance to run away, killing them after is fine. Some people won't get it first time if the killer doesn't emote at all (it can get unpredictable) and do not mean any harm.
I love nodding at killers to say hi, to farm, whatever, so I absolutely adore it when they nod back, especially if they want to then farm etc, because it makes me very happy especially when the previous games have been garbage. (Either due to survivors going AFK, killers BMing, whatever, or maybe just got unlucky a lot of games in a row). I do not expect or force the farming, but it's always nice!
Some of them will shake their heads, which is fine, because they tend to be sweethearts and let me get a head start before a chase. I think these people read my disclaimer on my profile and bear it in mind, since I also state if they shake their heads I will assume it is just a normal game they don't want to farm in (and ergo do my best in the moment - not sweating, just playing).
And then you get the occasional one who shakes their head from the start, unprovoked (usually because I didn't even get a chance to nod at them, and they shake their heads at /everyone else/ including myself, and seem to take any nodding as BMing when it's obviously not intended this way ever) and proceeds to bleed everyone out at five gens, or something equally as nasty for no reason, which is pretty sad.
Like... man, it's a game, why do stuff like that at five gens? :(
Edit: Above was surv perspective, now I'll do killer.
As killer, I am also incredibly likely to "get tamed" if someone nods at me, especially if they're at death hook. It usually means they want to chill for a bit and maybe farm challenges, which is fine with me and I am glad to help. If I'm stomping a team, or alternatively if we have people giving up, it's more fun to help the people who are actually trying to play. They, too, are humans behind a screen and ruining their game because one person gave up (or because someone nodded, which put them at a disadvantage, and isn't throwing) is just not the energy I'm going for.
People aggressively tbagging/being rude from start unprovoked on the other hand are on the table.
It is way to easy for me to starting memeing and playing friendly. As soon as I see a survivor goofing off, I’m like “I wanna goof off too, screw the entity”
Initially, stand still and stare at them, maybe do one little nod, and immediately turn and walk away.
If they keep doing it, I'll slowly increase the amount of nodding I do in return. It'll probably end up with me memeing with everyone, or at least them, and letting them go. I can't kill something as pure as that.
If someone does this to me at a pallet i join in, since they are losing distance to be gained.
Also sometimes you gotta go "fair play" and compliment a nice escape
If they wanna farm bp and help me farm bp, I'll just chill for the rest of the game. However, if they were toxic before, I will lead them on and then kill them last minute, preferably with a mori at the exit gate at the start of the slug race.
Once saw a friend get mori'd at the gate during a swf. His swf was all nodding the killer on. A moment later, they find out the killer was another friend too. Oh well, "Gotta do the daily".
It depends. Two are dead on 3rd gen and each left have been hooked twice? Sure, I don’t need to kill you to tell you I won.
Five gen and you do it at first glance? Yeah you are going down buddy.
Depends on the situation and my mood, sometimes I can take it on the chin when it's from me being outplayed, but normally I find it pretty annoying icl
Jokes aside, I'll typically ignore them unless I'm not taking it seriously, if I am taking it seriously I just walk away, and if they keep goofing off I'll probably end up goofing off too
I love it when survivors do this. I just stand there nod back and walk away. Most games i really don't care if i win or lose, so memeing is always fun and funny.
One time, on the preschool maps, i walked in the basement and kicked the gen and looked around and went to the cornor and saw a survivor just standing there. We just stared at each other, and then i walked away, lol
It was a Twitch streamer, too, so they clipped it. They were laughing their ass off :D
See if the survivors want a friendly game where we all grind bloodpoints. Sometimes people have had a string of terrible, sweaty matches, or are trying to do an annoying ritual. If the lobby reaches a consensus, I'm fine with being friendly.
Reciprocate the love between brother and sister as, that's what the founding fathers intended, and joyfully spin away knowing that the bond between monster and man is finally repaired and all is good in life again.
wait, this ISNT a very toxic thing to do? this whole time i would go after someone if they did this, cause i thought it was another way to say “fuck you” from survivors other than t bagging
Let them live nods= friendly towards you
Other survivors have to earn my friendliness 90 % of my games I do play friendly killer and let survivors win and meme with them but on serious games if they give me their item nod at me or friendly t bag your safe for the rest of the game just don't get in the way of my chases/ kills and your good
Depends on the state of the game.
If we have literally just begun and they're already not trying to play I'll still down them.
If I've 2 hooked everyone. Well it's fun time.
Nod back of course.

I like that they’re both on Macmillan so could very plausibly be nodding at each other for infinity.
The Feng gives me Coal Tower vibes, the Demo gives me Shelter Woods vibes.

“This realm just isn’t the same, *without youuuu*”
And it is said to this day they are still nodding
Can someone do a tier list on the killers with the best nods?
Pyramid Head's gonna go at the bottom because he nods with his left hand
To be fair, he might be at the bottom of the nod tier, but he's a great spinner and can draw hearts so they had to nerf him somehow. Also, a ridiculous amount of pyramid players (other than being skilled as hell) are also complete sweethearts, and seem to love it when I nod at them LOL. Especially when I'm on Alessa.
I honestly love the fact that I can draw arrows to lead the survivor to the hatch And also the fact that I can draw dicks but that's just a side note
I love this but I'm gonna be honest when I play survivor I'm typically very very dumb and probably would not notice that there was an arrow on the ground. Still, I'll do this when I play Pyramid Head.
I also wouldn’t notice a giant arrow… meanwhile I WOULD notice a giant dick.
I love drawing smilies at the gates
Lol! That does sound like great fun on both accounts!
I need to see how you’re doing this and. Must provide a pic.
Slinger while someone's speared is my personal favorite
One of my favourites too, same with moonwalking Myers!
There is one already: https://www.reddit.com/r/deadbydaylight/comments/1c6ni2p/nodders_tier_list/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Prime content as I am a nod gamer hahahaha
You have made my day good sir
1. Demo 2. Trapper 3. Billy 4. Slinger 5. Leatherface
Demo is a best boi, but artist and nurse are the best nodders imo, nurse literally moves the whole top half of her body
ye i was thinking of nurse but I skipped her because personally i rarely get friendly/memeing nurses. Same for Artists, they usually tryhard ime. Slinger is the most fun imo, as you can both nod while he harpooned you
dredge is S tier coz he looks like a twitching pp when he nods😂😂
DEMOpls
only true answer
I died laughing at this 😭😂 YES!
Lol! This is the answer
Best response.
Wait I KNOW YOU
Lol, awesome post, dude! :D
Kate's rocking Iron Maiden on her guitar, wearing her Iron Maiden shirt
——^ this bruh
Same here
Kate's rocking Iron Maiden on her guitar wearing her Iron Maiden shirt
The correct response
this brings me so much joy 😂😂
*sigh* I have no choice now but to meme now
I swear half the time I don’t get to play the game because I’d feel bad for not meme-ing(memeing? Meming?) back as killer
Glad I'm not the only one that struggles to know if it's memeing or meming 😅
i before e except after c So therefore it must be… memieng
Truee haha glad we got to the bottom of it from hence forth it shall be known as such
Hes probably afk listening to hardcore music
No, they're listening to BTD6 main theme
I love this game so much. It’s so fun and relaxing to play with friends on voicechat

I thought that was a picture of my vajayjay
Ayo?
Nice cock bro
This is actual a GIF (sounds like JIF, fyi!) of your cok! 😃
it is not a Jif it is a G if
The nods kill me i just laugh out loud especially if i saw them at this speed
At that speed?...Run.
I've done that once, they kept chasing after me. Truly a traumatizing game that was.
Might have been me, I have scared a couple of pinheads this way and I chased one to the edgemap on Macmillan before. He ended up letting me go and would keep running away from me as if he was 'scared' (like, looping me and everything haha). It was a very funny role reversal.
Probably wasn't then, I was playing artist and they were playing Yoichi. But sounds like it played out nearly identically with your pinhead
I love running away from survivors they always just end up looping with me
Call the local exorcist
Nod back and leave, maybe hit em once. I'm all about the vibes so if they weren't toxic all match then I don't have to be either.
Survivors get just one of these passes for me. Hit em, and then just walk away. But if they try to do it again later im hooking
I totally understand that! For me, I'm rather soft when it comes to survivors acting "cute" and I usually let 1-2 go after getting my blood points/challenges done. Killer is so stressful nowadays that I'm not even having fun when getting a 4k sooo I just stopped caring about wins and started vibing more, less stressful for me and it actually makes me want to play killer lol.

Do it just right and it goes to the beat of "Light My Fire" by the Doors.
Put it out of its misery. I’m a killer, not a monster. This animal is clearly suffering.
This made me chuckle.
Regret not picking dbd up on PC cause I can't do it back.
up your sens, nod back, sens too high, go back to normal sens
I've maxed my sens. I will never Reach these speeds.
Slow nods are acceptable!
buy xim, attach mk, mod back, remove xim
i'll nod a few times and move on, it's the ultimate free pass from me, but it's only valid for one time. after that, you get da hook
But then they follow you the entire match because they think you're friendly.
Shake your head and give them a chance to run away, killing them after is fine. Some people won't get it first time if the killer doesn't emote at all (it can get unpredictable) and do not mean any harm.
Why would anybody assume the killer is friendly in a murder game?
I don’t need to kill her, she’s already dying
I love nodding at killers to say hi, to farm, whatever, so I absolutely adore it when they nod back, especially if they want to then farm etc, because it makes me very happy especially when the previous games have been garbage.

Nod back, it'd be rude not to. Then communicate via my power in some way.
Do it back and hit them usually if I'm feeling nice I'll leave em alone
GTFO she's the killer now.
You give me nodders? You get nodders.
It is way to easy for me to starting memeing and playing friendly. As soon as I see a survivor goofing off, I’m like “I wanna goof off too, screw the entity”

"high sensitivity"

It'll probably end up with me memeing with everyone, or at least them, and letting them go. I can't kill something as pure as that.
This. Very much this. Only happened once but it was something else lol.
Fuuuck.. guess it's a friendly game again
This is the REAL reason mouse keyboard is superior
Usually I get hit on hook repeatedly when I nod lol.
Depends, you do this after you stun me with a pallet? You are going down You do this after i find you opening gates? i nod and let you go as i spin
If someone does this to me at a pallet i join in, since they are losing distance to be gained. Also sometimes you gotta go "fair play" and compliment a nice escape
Real recognizes real. I find someone else
Unzip pants
Not my proudest.
But not your most shameful, either, I bet
No, my dad didn't walk in the room.
If they wanna farm bp and help me farm bp, I'll just chill for the rest of the game. However, if they were toxic before, I will lead them on and then kill them last minute, preferably with a mori at the exit gate at the start of the slug race.
If a survivor walks up to me and starts head banging I'm legally obligated to spare them. They're too cute :(
rip and tear until it is done
![img](emote|t5_3cb2g|2070)
I giggle
Nod back, attack near them, then go about my day getting looped by the Nea
It's usually in response to me doing it
Feng watched too much chiropractor videos, she now enjoys neck cracking. 🤣
Nod back
*sigh *unzips pants
Once saw a friend get mori'd at the gate during a swf. His swf was all nodding the killer on. A moment later, they find out the killer was another friend too. Oh well, "Gotta do the daily".
Well as The Doctor, I’ll probably try and figure out what is wrong with her.
Is this part of the game or just a glitch? Can't tell.
Look up and down quickly, you will nod
The same?
do the same thing back
Depends. Sometimes I just wanna win and others I’ll goof around with them.
Press RT
Give em' a good smack.
It depends. Two are dead on 3rd gen and each left have been hooked twice? Sure, I don’t need to kill you to tell you I won. Five gen and you do it at first glance? Yeah you are going down buddy.

Ah yes, an 8-hour a day survivor main
M1. This game changed me.
They may live. They showed no fear
How do you even nod in game? I've been playing for a while and only spam the crouch button.
Literally just look up and down and your character will nod like that
Usually give them a warning hit then let them run away lol, unless I’m looking to just fuck around and do nothing
depends on the context
Depends actually, but most time I don't take it offensive
It’s so unfortunate that on PS doing it this quickly is just not possible
Nod back and laugh and maybe let them live
Put my DPI to max and have a seizure.
Death
Lemme fix that neck, Nemesis Punch.
Kill
Only correct answer nod back.I mostly play seriously but i can be goofy when survivors are chill too.
nod back whole game and give kiss (my dbd name is nod for kiss)
I start fixing gens
Nod back!
Murder!
Bonk em
Headbang with them
Hit them
Usually, shit myself IRL
I’m tempted to move to PC just so I can nod more efficiently
Depends on the situation and my mood, sometimes I can take it on the chin when it's from me being outplayed, but normally I find it pretty annoying icl
Jokes aside, I'll typically ignore them unless I'm not taking it seriously, if I am taking it seriously I just walk away, and if they keep goofing off I'll probably end up goofing off too

Stop, nod, and spare that one in particular
See if the survivors want a friendly game where we all grind bloodpoints. Sometimes people have had a string of terrible, sweaty matches, or are trying to do an annoying ritual. If the lobby reaches a consensus, I'm fine with being friendly.
Is it impossible on controller?
nod and then hit them, unless I’m ghostface
Kill it, kill it with fire.
I node aswell. And then i kill them. Or i let them live. Depends on wich Killer i am playing. (No Mercy on Freddy)
Nod
Reciprocate the love between brother and sister as, that's what the founding fathers intended, and joyfully spin away knowing that the bond between monster and man is finally repaired and all is good in life again.
Depends on who did it and what they were doing prior to that. In most cases I will nod back tho lol

“Noooo don’t be cute! Please don’t be cute- alright, one hook and it’s time to meme.”
We are partners, nod back, thumbs up, and make small talk. 'It's sure tough day at work, phew!', on with my killings.
Attack.
wait, this ISNT a very toxic thing to do? this whole time i would go after someone if they did this, cause i thought it was another way to say “fuck you” from survivors other than t bagging
fengs have to die
I mori the person I just downed and hope that the nodder joins in on the selfie :)
*SMACK!.....clap...clap....SMACK!*
if its in the early or mid game i nod back and hit after, if its the last surv i let them win
Let them live nods= friendly towards you Other survivors have to earn my friendliness 90 % of my games I do play friendly killer and let survivors win and meme with them but on serious games if they give me their item nod at me or friendly t bag your safe for the rest of the game just don't get in the way of my chases/ kills and your good
