Decisive Strike is pretty good

Tonight when I was playing solo queue, I noticed a lot of Decisive Strikes so I made quick montage of back to back games with shadowplay recordings. All red rank games and killers.

Every person who used DS escaped the match. Not sure why people want to buff it.

    Remember the devs did show stats that in games where DS went off it changed survival rates to be 52%.

    Aka in games where DS went off even post nerf it killers got slightly less then a 2k average.

    Its STILL a god tier perk just less abuse-able then before which is great.

    Edit: I know stats don't mean much but given its survival rate was shown to be literally unchanged when it goes off still means its an insanely powerful perk.

    Edit2: I guess I misremembered its 49% escape rate still 2k average just every so slightly favoring the killer.

    1 character too short.

    It is fair now but I changed my mind about it and I had better success with other perks which are not that situational.

    It’s always been good after the nerf but most survivors will tell you otherwise

    You're correct and I misremembered the number.

    I just couldn't find that for some reason.

    Anyways its rather telling on how strong of a perk it still is that its unchanged, when you consider how many things can negatively effect its escape rate it being the same makes it oddly relevant for a DbD stat.

    It's still a great perk, in fact it's become a staple to my build. It's punished tunnelers many times. People underestimate the power DS holds.
