    I had a match where a killer let 2 of us escape "because of xmas".

    I play both sides, so how about what's getting killer for xmas?

    I can play fair as killer at red ranks, I'm by no means a good killer, atrocious compared to how I am as a survivor. I don't play fair for the survivors benefit, I do it because I find it more fun to play that way and winning that way is more rewarding than if I played scummy.

    I'm a bad killer but I can get a 4k against a rank 1 SWF group, with the weakest killer in the game (Leatherface) without using Ruin, Noed, by camping or tunnelling. Every time I hear a killer main say "you have to camp and tunnel to win at red ranks" I just think that killer just isn't good enough to play at red ranks.

    I don't see Otz, Monto, or Tru3 having to camp and tunnel to win games at rank 1.

    You said you can't play nice at red ranks, I wasn't flexing. Just trying to point that I'm atrociously bad killer but I can win games at red ranks whilst playing fair with a very weak killer, If I can do it anyone can.

    I do prefer a playstyle without camp, tunnel, slug too. But only because you can 4k at R1 with a low tier killer doesnt mean anything. If we talk about the performing of killers its about consistency. I think no one would deny that you can 4K with any Killer at R1. Just yesterday I had a match playing Huntress vs 3man swf on coldwind. They were so focused on destroying my ruin that I had an easy time. I didnt even need my other perks, to refill my hatchets and I played without addons. Ofc you dont need to camp, tunnel, slug (c,t,s) but it definitly helps to perform more consistent and makes your killer games less sweaty. So only because you and I dont play that way and still perform good/ok doesnt mean its not beneficial or the killers are bad who c,t,s.

    I also think its a bad idea to mention streamers in any discussion. These guys literally do nothing besides playing DbD. Btw your listed streamers do c,t,s. They try not to but still do.

    I must have been very bad because I got The Game, 2 Hawkins Lab, Lery and The Game again in a row.

    For every hooked survivor, I’ll be playing Jingle Bells with my Wraiths bell.

    Can you explain what "fair" mean. Do you count pallets and make sure to take every stun?

    They will tunnel lightly at times; because sometimes you do need too. Camping is pretty much killer suicide so if you did that and won at red ranks they are the ones that shouldn't be at red ranks, it's so easily dealt with by prepared survivors...unless you are bubba but even then you are only securing ONE kill out of four.

    Playing without ruin can make you a better killer so it's worth dropping it but you'll need to know when to take it still cause some builds kinda rely on it somewhat; or at least corrupt intervention/pop the truth is you do still need to slow the game down a lot of the time.

    Lastly, survivors will call you scummy camper/tunneler even when you don't a lot of the time, so don't put so much weight into their words because you are gonna run into a few toxic groups and end up believing them when they tell you literally anything you do is "scummy".

    Edit: Also you still have to try hard as all hell against those groups, if you make one mistake as killer it's costly as hell, making survivor mistakes is much more forgiving.

    Sure you can :’D

    Leatherface viable, you heard it here first scrubs! ;’P

    I’m rank 0 and 5k every game against SWF teams of streamers using no blink Nurse with no perks or addons using only my left foot to control her with a trackball and if you guys can’t do it then maybe you just aren’t good enough to play the game; oh my God!

    I've been playing Jingle Dwight today and all it's gotten me is tunneled because I am so bright =(

    Edit: Tunneled by a ghost face AGAIN. I think this might be what kills the game for me, the community is so toxic they can't even not tunnel on Christmas Day? Man I knew it was bad but......jeeze.....

    I play perfectly fine without camping and tunneling in Red ranks, I just refuse to give hatches to toxic idiots and why would I need to play like a Saint against these guys?. That's what I meant with not playing nice but again weird flex but okay.

    Cute, That you're flexing when Red ranks doesn't really matter when Survivor skill is at an all time low across all ranks.

    I might get on later as ugly sweater Susie and blow through all my streamers + gateaus, might even let everyone live*

    *am playing legion and have been on the mulled cider, they might not need my permission to escape

    Mori. In this case i hooked 1 to locate the other via BBQ then mori'd the final survivor infront of the struggling survivor. Merry Christmas to everyone, especially these 2.

    I was gonna give the last survivor on every team I went against the hatch. Then, on my first game today, not thirty seconds in, I get pallet stunned, and the Bill teabagged me. Nope. Best I can offer is a quick death.
