How often do you escape chases and/or force killer to drop chase?
Got the idea from another topic where I'm seeing people say it's hard/impossible to win loops/lose killers.
I'd honestly say I'm winning 15-20% of my chases as survivor.
My main chase related perk is Lithe.
My fun build uses Head-On/Quick and Quiet.

Not often. Maybe 10% of the time.
Most Killers (correctly) recognize that I'm the weak link in the team and try to tunnel me out. That's smart, but I'm not entirely helpless.

You cannot escape a killer's chase unless he's really new to the game or some bs map rng.
The killer will some times give up a chase for strategic reasons but that's entirely up to the killer's decision making

Cool.
So how often do you win your survivor chases?

It really depends on which killer I am facing, I must admit that I am not good versing everyone. I can do really well against a Deathslinger, a Nemesis or a Ghostface because I understand them really well. But against killers like hag or wraith? fat chance I am lasting more than 30 seconds lol.

I escape/force Killer to drop chases a decent amount of the time against most Killers. Many of the times I don't escape chases are when the Killer gets upset/tunnel vision and chases me through several generators and then facecamps me until my teammates do the last gens and leave. I actually just got slugged for 4 minutes while the Killer stood over my body because I gave them the loop while they tunnelled me most of the game. Complete with swinging their weapon over my body, spinning in circles and nodding.
I usually do best against Huntresses!

Only killers who drop chase against me are either bad killers who realize they can't catch me so they go for someone else or very good players who see I'm in a safe area so they only get a pallet or two out of me and leave me to defend generators, as they should.

I'd say 30% escape 70% get caught.

Define winning your survivor chase, because the killer giving up a chase is not depending by my skills or anything but just a strategic decision.
If by winning a chase you mean evading the killer well 0% because if the killer loses me i try to take aggro again

Not often. But the game isn't balanced around this. If survivors had a 50% chance of losing the killer or running them for long enough that they have to lose you, the game would be a mess.

I get tunneled a lot, had games where killer threw the match just to get me out. Not in a "I'll tunnel them out so I have an easier game", more like "I will ignore every single generator and other survivor to chase the uninjured Dwight who brought lithe"

It depends on the killer. With low mmr? I can actually probably run them for a few gens.

I usually keep the killer on me on purpose so I know where the killer is and can optimize loops. It's when I escape and lose track of the killer and he pops up behind me that I end up going down. I also end up going down in chases.
The higher level/smarter killers leave me pretty often though. They don't like going on world tours.

Never when I need it to happen. If I have a medkit or Inner Strength, the killer never lets me go until they down me. If I have neither of those and there's no teammates anywhere near to heal me, of course they drop chase.

Not very often. Most of the time I'm stuck looping them for a bit but 9 times out of 10 they will get the injure and usually stick around for the down. Physically impossible to loop killers forever.
But I noticed with Nea and Balanced Landing I have a better chance of running the killer for longer or even giving up chase. So I really enjoy playing Nea right now.

Anecdotally, it feels like killers drop chase about 30% of the time, but rarely because of something I did. Usually because they saw someone else they wanted more, or their gen patrol perks went off, etc. Sometimes, if I get really lucky in the first chase and it takes a long time, the killer will hesitate to chase me again, even if the reason it took so long had nothing to do with me.

I'd say 20-25% where chase is longer than 10 seconds. Less than 10 seconds is not a chase to me.

I mostly play killer and i will drop a chase when the survivor go to a god loop or a zone of the map where no gen are

A lot of time it depends on the map for me, if it's a farm map I can lose the killer more easily than I can on other maps - corn blindness is still a thing. Also depends if I'm injured or not - blood trails can be a lot easier to track.
I'd say around 15% is about right, and that's entirely dependent on the perks I'm running. I find I do lose killers more if I'm running perks such as Deception, as they do stop to check the locker if I time it correctly and that gives me the time to get away.
I'd also say I lose chases as a killer around the same amount of time.

Depends on the killer and the map. Some killers are better on particular map.
Mostly 20% chases ends up in break up due to being to long. Sometimes I get angry one who tries to catch my ass and all 5 gens are done meanwhile.

I find Lithe to be a resourceful, and cheesy way to easily escape chases. In regards to what the game counts as "Escaped" score event, and escaping a chase for Emblem points. Even though the Killer can easily just catch up, and you're down an exhaustion perk.
Which is why I used it for the first season of the Grade mechanic, and will be using it every month prior 🤣

Some killers are just stubborn. They'll keep chasing you to their detriment. Other killers are smart, and will drop chase at the right time. You can lose a killer, but you can't really make them drop chase. That's their choice. And if they want to keep chasing you until the exit gates are open, they will.

Unless i pull off a juke or the killer changes targets. Once a chase begins he is "going" to catch me eventually. That doesnt mean you failed. If it bought enough time for your team to do gens then you did well.
In my usual swf there is one among us who is a good looper. Often when he leads the killer on a chase he unknowingly runs by us working on a gen. The killer usually see's "this guy is good at looping. I better find a weak link" and goes after us instead. Our teammate is not doing it on purpose. When being chased you cant be picky where you lead the killer. However it happens so often that some of us started running bond. For the sole purpose that we could see him coming and we know to get out.

I mean it heavilly depends on perks too.
Perksless it's very hard to impossible to make a killer lose you.
Have some houdini build like lithe, dance with me, iron will and q&q or something simular and you can do it multiple times in a match

Depends on killer and map/tile spawn.
Honestly if I go down its usually because iv been greedy or other players have used the pallets etc. I would say most chases I put up are punishing for the killer providing my team are doing gens. But sometimes I'll do an insane chase and 1 gen will pop like.... oh, okay then lol

Had to? Almost never. Wanted too because there was an injured survivor or a survivor in a less favourable position? All the time

Ooh did you get moved up to BHVR tag. Congrats :)

The lower MMR I'm at, the more I escape chases. Also it depends on the Killer I'm facing- I do best against Trapper and worst against (a good) Hag.

Winning chase as survivors?
For me I'll say at 10% for the most.
Maybe just around 4-5%

It depends sometimes I will have killers drop chase when they see I have a bunch of strong loops chained together or some don't care and chase me through them losing a few gens.

Off topic but are you called Raccoon ingame? We might just had a match against each other, i played Nurse on Hawkins. :P
(Played on PS5)

Lately I'll escape a bunch of chases, but eventually will go down, because the killer won't get off my nuts, despite losing gens. Then after match, I'll have max boldness and no real points in anything else.

I rarely lose the killer because I suck at it with 1k+ hrs :( . I can make them give up or waste time. I also don't use any exhaustion/hide perks.

A lot of killers over commit to me so I'd say that happens close to never for me.

I was not on yet, today!
But your kindness is still appreciated :3

For me it's a 40/60, I win about half my chases at most and I'm fine with that, you win some, you lose some. The only chases I normally lose is when my game lags and drops to 3 fps for 5 seconds, if the killer is persistently tunneling me while I pray my teammates are doing gens, and then my favorite occasion when the killer and I are evenly matched but I mess up.
I'm not complaining though as long as the killer isn't being toxic when they down me

Alright, then it was someone else with the same name i guess.
