The Oni is one of the most challenging Killers to play as in Dead by Daylight. It’s got a fantastic ability that’s efficient but feels impossible to master. With the right build, this Killer can become the ultimate threat in a Trial.
The Oni was added to Dead by Daylight in Chapter 14: Cursed Legacy. He’s an ancient samurai who took his thirst for legacy and tradition way too far. Using his ability to absorb the blood and pain of his victims, he becomes more powerful and summons unbeatable strength while hunting Survivors. The only downside is that directing his rage is difficult, leading to many players avoiding him at all costs when playing as a Killer. A perfect build can change all of that, though.

The Oni has three unique abilities in Dead by Daylight that players must first master if they want to make the most of their build with him. These are all available by default, so players can practice using them anytime they hop into a Trial as the Killer.
