    Check out Dead Island 2 on the Epic Games Store Now!!! ➡ epic.gm/notOtzdarva (The game is genuinely super fun, thanks for showing support to our sponsors 🥰
  • I stopped playing dead by daylight about 2 years ago. I still watch Otz because I enjoy his dedication to his craft.
  • @Mr_ProNoob
    Alright, after carefully examining both sides and their top performances. It has become evident that I should buy the Legion. TY Otz.
  • When knights using his power I’m assuming we see the survivors because we’re spectating (the knight himself can’t see them only us)
  • @Seraph566
    Wow, the Knight player did AMAZING for someone with only 1k hours in a comp setting. I hope they know that what they accomplished in these matches is something to be proud of, even if they didn't quite reach Adriana's level. If this is their skill now, they're going to be a beast with more and more hours.
  • @int3r4ct
    Honestly shoutout to the Knight player going into something like this with only 1K hours and getting pretty good results. Good work!
  • @Wunitop
    Top players fighting the worst killer allegation.
  • "Educate the neighborhood on their 2nd amendment rights" Otz, you are a gem 😂
  • @Hydrodictyon
    As someone who recently did a 48 winstreak with Knight, I gotta say that he is MUCH better in chase than in holding a 3-gen, but his real strength is in his ability to hold constant pressure on at least 3 survivors at a time. And this is what makes him boring for survivors: Knight is almost unbeatable if you tunnel someone out, even if it’s a “1 gen left” situation.
  • Nice to see Otz getting another sponsorship. Congrats on 900k subs aswell
  • That first skull merchant game with no restrictions is generally how my games go. She is not just gen defense, she is SPEED.
  • @AidanStewart9
    6 AM, very laggy, a lot lower hours, no formal competitive games. Insane gameplay from the knight I literally learned so much about the knight that I didn’t know lol
  • @JaneRomero
    Thank you so much for inviting me here and many thanks to everyone who's showing love and support for every player involved in the showcase! It was fun and an experience that made me understand even more stuff about the killer. Thank you so much ❤
  • Lets be real, Otz made this so people would try to copy their playstyles and we can finally move past the 3 gen knights/merchants.
  • @lenacarey2333
    The plays from Adriana in Round 2 were INCREDIBLE. She was oppressive all over the map, using her drones to get the upper hand in chase and still keeping track of other survivors while she did so. Absolutely nutty gameplay, super fun to watch. I really hope there’s a revolution of sorts with how people play Skull Merchant bc those chase addons are WILD
  • @HandyTammy548
    In my experience the most broken part of these killers is the amount of survivors who DC within 2 minutes of the match! I don’t think I have ever played a game with or against either killer that didn’t end with at least one DC.
  • I'm glad the Skull Merchant used a more anti-loop build to showcase the character CAN be played outside of a 3gen holder. Because I enjoy her and play her with the same addons and a similar build and always get people giving me crap or DCing even though I don't really use the drones on gens. So i'm glad they showcased, at least partly, she's good outside of 3 gen proxy.
  • @DeificAura
    This is EXACTLY how I play my Skull Merchant. I've tried to tell people on social forums that you don't have to stack gen kick perks to do well with her, but of course it was always disregarded due to the stigma from day 1. Glad there's finally some decent representation for us Chase Merchant mains!
  • @qiqi9057033
    otz and hens commentary combo is the best. Could watch them talk about matches for weeks
  • @babfel258
    This is the kind of Knight and Skullmerchant gameplay i like and why i think they are not as bad as people make them out to be
