Nerf DeathSlinger
You heard me, nerf him. He's too op and makes tunneling way too easy. I just watched 2 people get tunneled to death, mind you I caught on to this after I unhooked them. He legit IGNORED me when I was RIGHT UP INFRONT OF HIM, he only attacked me when i body blocked him to let the feng min get away. All he did was reload and shoot, there was nothing else he did. He even had BBQ as well which made it 10x worse cause he knew where his "recently hook" survivor was all the time. They had sloppy butcher to make it even harder to heal them. This is far too op and basically says to anyone who gets into a match with him "Haha, I'll just tunnel you to death and think that's okay." Not even DS helped.
And before any killer who owns him says "Deathslinger is fine, git gud." Or, "Just loop him or dodge the chain." The chain strikes lightning fast making it near impossible to escape. Not yo mention the hitbox is huge I'm talking I could be literally a whole 2 feet away and I get hooked. Even then, if you loop him you run the risk of getting shot; mind you the whole 'Use the environment to break the chains' is a load of bullcrap, his lunge range is the insand and his hitbox/latency makes it impossible to get out the range if your lucky enough to break the chain.
My solution would be making it so that the chain either had shorter range, easier to break and or when the chain breaks it stuns him so that you can get away instead of him still managing to score a hit on you.
It makes it even worse when he has Phobia, Surge or any perk honestly. If rank 1 killers start setting up infinites or easy ways to win, I'm 75% sure deathslinger will be the META. He's too easy to use and get sacrifices or kills on if you have a mori [which leads to most players DCING in my case when he tunnels, camps or tries to kill you.]

I will try to discern this and put it into english
A killer tunneled while playing deathslinger and juggled between 2 people
Deathslinger has a strong ability when up close with open line of sight and his chain moves fast when shot so its hard to react to it
If he uses his power to close a gap there is nothing you can do and the environment never helps me
His short range should be shorter and whenever the chain breaks or is broken by the deathslinger he should be stunned
If the killer uses perks its unfair
Deathslinger will be the best killer in the game and will highhandedly take over as he is easy to use
If the killer has a mori people usually dc if the killer also tunnels and camps while he has a mori

I don't know how anyone can say that killers need nerfs WHEN SWF IS STILL IN THE GAME

"Nerf X Killer" - Clearly never played Killer X therefore doesn't know how to counter and / or is bad at said Killer.

hug long walls and LOS breakers I hate deathslinger as much as the next guy but he really dont need a nerf. Maybe the green reload addon could use some adjustment that thing is nasty.

Again, not all of us are gifted with the ability to BUY DLC CHARACTERS. Certain characters that people complain about are DLC and we dont have the luxury to get them because of irl/financial issues. You probably have that but we dont.

And no one has ever told me what SWF, I assumed it was a perk and I'm still thinking that. What the hell is it.

Non premium Killers such as Slinger can be purchased with Iridescent Shards - an in game currency earned by gaining Experience Points and increasing one's Player Account Level.
I learned that the hard way after I purchased Spirit with actual cash lol.

Because he tunneled while using a certain killer doesn't make that killer OP.
I mean it's pretty easy to tunnel with Wraith for example, and everyone knows that if you compare him (without addons) to the other killers, he is one of the weakest.
