Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

New Mechanic Idea

Killer mechanic: Brace
When you hit a q or e, you brace in that direction (q being left, e being right).
When a survivor drops a ballet, and you time your brace correctly, you stop the pallet from breaking and get a free hit on the survivor.
If you brace too late, you get stunned by the pallet.
When you do a brace action, you suffer from a movement speed penalty as if you missed a lunge.
If you brace too soon on a pallet drop, it either lets the survivor run another loop around, or you get stunned on the pallet drop.
The pallet is not used if you successfully pull off a brace.
This mechanic is meant to add new mind games, a higher skill cap to all killers, and to make pallets more of a risk to use.
