Killer Strats

A list of a few killer strats I know. Feel free to add.

Regular: down and hook. Carry on to the next patrol. It works often. Nice with locator perks to find the next target (BBQ, whispers, discordance, etc)

3 gen: beginning of game find 3 gens that are close together that you can defend easily. Simply stick near those 3. Don't let people bait you away. Time is on your side. Just protect your 3 to the end. The rest is history.

Slug: Take deerstalker, knockout, BBQ, random (nurses?) Down people and leave them to patrol a bit. Not long enough for someone to heal fully. Unless you find someone else. Then focus them. Rinse and repeat until you either have 4 down OR you have patrolled long enough for your first slug to be fully recovered and you still don't see anyone. Then hook him and use BBQ for the rest. Rinse and repeat strategy.

Tunnel: pick one and stay on em until they die. Rinse and repeat. Not reliable. And you will eat a lot of DS and BT. I don't recommend.

ProxyCamp: Not facecamp. Don't get it twisted. Viable on some killers. Trapper, hag, clown to name a few. You hook, trap up your hook and roll out. Clown you just roll out. The traps slow down hooks and unhooks which give you time to get back quickly. Stay about 1 gen distance from your hook. Don't stray to the other end of the map. As clown, gas the hook every 10-15 seconds or as soon as the unhook happens, gas the escape routes. Works nicely with Make Your Choice. Just stay a heartbeat away.

Endgame: STBFL, NOED, Remember Me, random (Blood warden, Bitter Murmur). I prefer not to run blood warden. I take BBQ for bloodpoints or bitter murmur for tryhard. But. Play like normal. Any hit will be benefiting STBFL or Remember Me. No need to avoid obsession or anything. Just play with no pressure. Faster gens means more chance u get NOED. Usually at least for one hit worth or more. I like this on Freddy cuz I can slow the game with teleports n such before gens are done and I get the other perks. Nurse is fun too, but no STBFL. Bitter murmur with her instead. It's fun.
