Bite By Daylight Tier Lists

Tier lists help you spend Scrap wisely and pick stronger kits before a lobby fills. Bite By Daylight is a Roblox asymmetrical survival horror title by V1lonil with a Bite By Night-inspired loop: survivors push generators and batteries toward 6 AM while one killer hunts the server. Rankings below summarize how the community evaluates that loop — not a promise that every lobby will match the spreadsheet.

Open the deep dives for full placements and playstyle notes:

• Killer Tier List — The Rotten, The Project, The Doppelganger, and how chase tools stack up
• Survivor Tier List — Customer, Medic, Security Guard, Fighter, Technician and team value

Roster caveat: Bite By Daylight recreates a BBN-style kit but may miss characters or ship different numbers. Treat ability notes as shared with the Bite By Night-style kit that BBD recreates, then confirm in your live shop after each patch listed on the Updates Hub.

Ranking criteria we use

We weigh four practical factors instead of raw popularity:

1. Escape rate / elimination pressure — For survivors, how often the kit creates live exits or clutch heals. For killers, how reliably it converts first hits into downs before 6 AM.
2. Chase pressure — Loop control, anti-loop tools, mobility after a missed swing, and information denial.
3. Scrap value — Power relative to unlock cost. A free starter that teaches fundamentals can outrank an expensive niche pick for new accounts.
4. Ease for new players — Input complexity, forgiveness on mobile, and whether the kit still works when teammates ignore callouts.

Secondary notes include solo-queue strength, counterplay clarity, and how badly a November 2026-style patch can swing the matchup.

Quick meta snapshot

Killers (high level): The Project (Mimic) usually sits near the top when grab or mode tools delete coordination. The Doppelganger (Ennard) rewards mind games and shape play. The Rotten (Springtrap) remains the best teacher — free, flexible axe states, traps — and climbs in lobbies that disrespect bear traps and thrown cleavers.

Survivors (high level): Security Guard and Medic often define coordinated teams through information and healing. Fighter anchors anti-killer pressure with parry into stun. Customer is the self-sufficient free survivalist. Technician is the engineer-style disruptor whose value spikes when traps and phasing are tuned well.

Exact letter grades live on the child pages so this hub stays a map, not a duplicate table.

How meta shifts after updates

Bite By Daylight launched 11 July 2026 and continued receiving patches into November 2026, including updates that correlated with higher concurrent players. Balance passes commonly touch:

• Stun immunity windows after Fighter interactions
• Killer health, stamina, or throw hitboxes on The Rotten
• Objective speeds that change how greedy survivors can be
• Shop prices that alter Scrap value rankings overnight

When a patch lands, re-read How to Survive and How to Play Killer, then refresh the dedicated killer and survivor lists before you dump Scrap into a newly nerfed unlock.

How to use these lists

• New accounts: Unlock according to Scrap value and ease — start with free Customer / The Rotten, then Medic or Security Guard when you can afford support tools. See Getting Started.
• Stacking teams: Pair information (Security Guard) with healing (Medic) and a stunner (Fighter) rather than five Customers.
• Killer mains: Learn The Rotten’s axe retrieval timing before you buy The Project or The Doppelganger. Mechanics transfer even when tiers shuffle.
• Fair play: Skip script crutches from the Scripts Hub; tier knowledge plus controls practice wins more stable games.
