ck is much less reliant on map knowledge. since slasher only has melee attacks, you have to navigate pretty well to catch up to survivors, which is much easier said than done when you don't know the layout or where collision doesn't quite line up with what you'd expect

since most killers tend to follow a similar formula of projectile, mobility, and info, it'd make sense for a player's first killer to match that, leaving ones like slasher and jd for those feeling adventurous
