Sprint burst buffed?

Okay does anyone else think the devs made sprint burst more stronger?
Because with the new exhaustion nerf, I can actually conrtol my sprint burst, and that made Lithe kind pointless
I think the devs nerf back fired for me, because now sprint burst is really strong for me.
Does anyone else feel this way?

    i know right i have been running sprint burst since my friend showed me this its awesome to run without sprint burst going off and then when the killer finds me running away with it to get a head start and then i just run the killer around the whole game by 360 and pallet and looping the killer shack until adrenaline makes me no longer injured then i run to a exit gate that my friend opened and escape EZ DUD i pip for iridescent evader and iridescent survival. its so fun to bully the killer into submission they should definelty revert the 2.1.0 update and get rid of me being able to control the exhaustion by just running till i need it.

    Decisive strike needs to be buffed next, the Killer doesn’t even let me escape!

    IKR its thew only reason i switched for sole survivor. it trumps nurses at one killed teammate and usually makes you the obsession causing him to juggle you for no reason while my friends body block the hook

    What are you talking about? Sprint Burst is useless (in my opinion)

    Dead Hard is my ❤

    If you let Sprint Burst *almost* recover and then start running around, you can essentially "trigger" Sprint Burst by pausing for a second to allow the last sliver of exhaustion to disappear.

    EDIT: With Vigil, you can even do it mid-chase. When the killer is trying to mindgame at a downed pallet or around a corner, just pause and look as much as you can to let exhaustion recover. I've gotten 2 Sprint Bursts in a single chase since the exhaustion nerf, and I don't even have Vigil inlocked.

    Then that would mean that all you are doing is running around and not getting gens and potentially giving away your location, all for a 3 second run. Sounds kind of idiotic.

    It's a tactic for when you want to engage the killer, IMO. If you're just doing it randomly with no plan, it's stupid. But imagine looping a killer who thinks you don't have SB, then SBing away when he thinks he has you. Or, prepping it like that when going in for an unhook, so you can SB away from the unhook even though you ran to the hook.

    OMG. You mean you might have a 3 second head start from the killer? I mean, a perk that actually is beneficial. Damn. That's truly terrible. Sounds like the end of the world and the death of DbD.

    Well, that escalated quickly.

    The new sprint burst is so awesome especially with Urban Evasion. It is so easy to escape killers now
