Collocations

Often used with 职业 (professional) as in 职业杀手 (professional hitman). Not used figuratively to describe impressive things.

Common mistakes

杀手 is often mistakenly used for 'killer' in casual contexts like 'a killer app'; in Chinese, it is literal and refers to a person who kills, not a metaphor for something excellent.
