    I never give survivors mercy you do not deserve it this game is balanced in the survivor's favor as it is

    Only once, I was a horrible nurse player and think I only got two hits and no hooks. A Nancy let me kill her, that’s the only one I can remember

    As a survivor if the killer played fair I'll do it without any issue.

    Cool, I didn't think I would find a killer equivalent of sluzzy on this forums. Seems like i have to follow another profile here.

    I have actually. With the newest tome release and because I need to complete all rituals so I can lvl up blight, I'm forced to play killers I don't usually play. Nurse is an obvious example. Since my fps is #########, I usually get destroyed as her since I haven't invested a lot of time playing her. But in 1 month I've played 5 nurse games, in 3 of them the survivor wanted me to kill them cuz they felt bad. But since I don't deserve the kill, I usually just drop em in the exit gate forcing them out.

    So to answer your question: yes there are kind survivors that will sacrifice 5+k points and an emblem to give the killer a kill if they feel bad. I've done it myself to poor baby nurses si fe I know how frustrating it is.

    Don't let it get to you. I also don't "expect" anything else. Just an advice, I go for dropped pallets or unbroken walls for more bloodpoonts or simply get me a drink, watch something on yt or go to the toilet.

    I will do it if there's multiple DC's or a Killer has accepted my mercy plea (offering my item and crouching submissively, to communicate, I'M A POTATO, PLZ DON'T KILL ME!) earlier in the game.

    My 2 favorite matches were against a Hospital Meyers on Coldwind, and a Ghostface on The Game

    With Mikey, I was the only person that didn't DC when we figured out it was Scratched Mirror build. I tried to get him to kick gens or destroy pallets, but wouldn't.

    Ghostface was obviously going to 4K in the Game. I was on death hook, with him breaking a pallet just behind me, so I dropped my medkit and he just STOPPED. I nodded at him, and he started T-bagging, which I mimicked back. He ran off and actually let me and the other remaining survivor go.

    NOW, in both cases I ran up to the Killer after opening the gates and motioned come here: Thanks for the game plz take the kill. Both times they put their back to me, refusing to acknowledge I was even visible. Honestly super precious and wholesome 💜

    Gave one to a demo yesterday. He was struggling a bit in midwich and by the final seconds of the match I managed to get the challenge to stun a killer with a reset pallet. I was so happy that I came back from the exit and gave him the kill. Then he proceeded to flame in the chat.

    Gave one to a baby nurse the other day. She chased me for the majority of the match and used Blink once the entire time. I remembered my first time playing nurse and how confusing it was so I didn't want them to walk away empty handed. It was also great for my 'get chased for 2 minutes' daily so I got mine anyway.

    I know I'm trying my best to not let them get to me but like if I see survivor who has more skills then me well good job mate but that doesn't mean they have to bully person because of it if they see you aren't very experienced they will do everything possible to be toxic because they know they can and because they know they can abuse one loop for long time such as shack etc so yeah I got used to it and I don't expect anything else from survs it's always killer who they expect to be fair or make it easier for them while they do nothing to make it easier for killer

    I've actually taken to doing this as a policy. If the Killer gets stomped and has no kills by the time the gates are open then, barring me having some reason to do otherwise like a Daily or something, I'll let them have me as a kill. I play for points so often as not I'm okay at that stage as far as that goes.

    I’ve done it for a few Killers, but never had a Survivor offer me a mercy kill.


    It is what it is.

    I have had a Survivor just give up and surrender. And I have had them insist on dying on hook after a generous farming game.


    But a pity kill?


    Never. Ever. Ever.
