    It's etl just sad, this used to be a favorite, now I'm met with nothing but frustration. Play as you see fit and all but my word why bother getting me out in 45 seconds! I deserve some points too. I've worked hard to stand where I am lol

    Not everyone can juke, what's your advice to them? Git Gud? Uninstall and play something else? Cause those are the common advices to people who don't play the loopy-jukey way so many high ranks seem to preach as the 'sole true way of playing'.

    Also the way Bubba works 'jukeing' might not be possible even if you are the legendary masterjuker lot of people seem to think of themselves as. His hitbox is very much the same as Huntress', if Huntress' hatchets could bounce off one surv they down and hit another.


    And the idea that jukeing etc is the 'true way of playing' so many push... that is what leads to toxic crap: If a lot of killers know survivors will play one tactic come hell or high water, they can and will exploit that.

    People insist on genrushing against Pig instead of 99ing gens and wait no one's got a rbt on. so what's the best tactic for pig here? put someone in a rbt, hook them close to other surv, and then tunnel the person off the boxes when they frantically try to remove the trap. (this is the tactic that gives pig such a high killrate)

    Same with Hexes. If you see how many high ranks will complain about ruin and noed, but not bother doing totems, AND insisting that you ignore totems and just 'commit to gens', then ruin/undying/noed are a surefire combo.

    Is it scummy? sure, but as long as especially high ranks streamers don't stop this nonsense and play according to what's going on instead of enforcing the eversame tactic it won't stop.

    Just imagine how the rate for ruin/undying would go down if people would commonly do totems.
