Anyway to get back against those that slug players?

Today, someone slugged and watched me until I die, and I'm the last one who fell down. Unbreakable is completely useless against these #########. Once you are down, there's nothing you can do anymore. Better if there's a mechanic that would give players a chance. It is really boring to play against sluggers - completely a waste of time.

    People do that to get a rise out of you. It's a waste of your time, but it's also a waste of theirs. And nothing is going to bother them more than you not rising to the bait.

    So pity them for needing to be spiteful towards strangers online in order to feel good about themselves, leave them a "gg", and move on. Trying to "get back" against people like that only makes the problem worse.

    I can't see it as a waste of time for them. Because they had fun doing it to other people. Same as those bastards who enjoy camping players(chainsaw + insidious against solo players). If ever they wasted their own time, they dragged other people down and wasted more than one person's time.

    Playing against chinese players(not a racist but actual culture), who thinks the only way to have fun is to win at any means necessary or grief others, is no way fun. They don't know what discretion is. I'm completely fine getting killed in normal way, but not the way like this. It is really hard to find match here in SEA, like several minutes, then most of the time you get killers that are totally trash. I don't do toxic play, just average one, but still get ######### killers for 80% of the time.

    I understand the frustration, I'm just saying you'd be doing yourself a favour by not letting it get to you.

    It's arguably more of a waste of their time than yours, from a more moral/philosophical standpoint, because while you're just spending 4 minutes being bored, they're spending 4 minutes embarrassing themselves by showing off how sad and pitiable they are that they even feel the need to do that in the first place, and actively damaging their own character by allowing their behaviour to be driven by cruelty and pettiness. The fact that they're having fun doing it honestly makes it even worse for them in the long run.

    In other words, they're worse off as people afterwards, but you're just a bit bored. They're the real loser in this situation, so take comfort in that.

    Thanks! Wish they have the same way of thinking. But with my experience playing against chinese from mainland(Starcraft 2, Dota 2, PUBG), they'll try anything just to win, even playing unfairly like using cheats or take advantage of some holes. If things don't go the way they want, they'll sabotage the game just to make things worse for others than them.

    Cheating got rooted in their culture, that it not only applies on games but also in other things. Like starting a riot in a school because their children were not allowed to cheat and terrible quality of materials compared to what is in the order.

    So if they can't cheat, they can still take advantage of things that they are allowed to.

    I, too, am a huge fan of stereotyping an entire country.

    It is not stereotyping. It is now part of their culture. It might sounds ridiculous but it is real. Yesterday, all the killers that did camped, tunneled, and slug survivors are chinese from their main land. You can easily notice it from their profile or the way they speak in the after chat.

    You can try to deny me or label me as racist, but it is the truth. Just an effortless search will show you how big and advance cheating in china is.

    They think cheating or any forms of unfair way to play games as normal, if you got beaten, then they'll blame your cheats or underhanded methods are not good enough. And there's no way for solo DBD players to play underhandedly unless you know some cheats/hacks. The most normal players can do is play toxic which not average players like me can't pull off.
