    Also to be clear this is just a joke, I love headon, but I think I'm actually traumatized by it lol.

    yeah this happens to everyone. from the time to time you just assume everyone is gonna use unbreakable, will deadhard to a pallet, the unhooker has BT, that everyone who enters a locker has head on, and everyone who is slugged under a pallet is running powerstruggle flip flop.

    basically every survivor is running everything and nothing at the same time

    Something most survivors or killers don't know, if you swing right before they Head On you, you will usually still hit them. I downed so many survivors like this trying to chain DS in to Head On.

    Apply directly to the forehead.

    I don't worry about the random locker headon. I will check a locker if a slug is infront of it though.

    I fell for one the other day in where a Bill was standing injured right in front of a locker ....... Got head on'd about 8 times in that match. I was even being led in a chase past lockers and was getting hit.

    I should use it as I run flashbangs and often get caught hiding in lockers anyway 😅

    I know how it is.

    It was actually somewhat rare for me to encounter Head On users, but for some reasons I always expected survivors to have it. It is probably some kind of instinct.

    I'm kind of similar there, I always expect it - probably because I also run it on my survivor build, so tend to expect it a lot as killer.

    The thing is, I didn't face a huge amount of Head On users since Demise of the Faithful was released, and I don't recall using it myself (other than Adept Jane, obviously).

    So I don't really know why I always expected it.

    Lol, that's what is so funny about this game sometimes. The survivors aren't only afraid of the killer, but the killers are afraid of the survivors.

    The most terrifying thing to me in this game is picking up a survivor next to the pallet.

    Funny you should say that. The biggest scare I ever had in this game, was when playing Killer. I was randomly looking for a people to chase in a match and walking through a pallet (did not know anyone was nearby, was heading off to a gen on the other side of the map), and a Claudette just dropped the pallet on me, it was so unexpected I jumped out of my chair and screamed!

    I completely agree! I almost always jump if I get randomly pallet stunned, mostly because it's so unexpected! At least when I play against Jump Scare Myers I know to look out for him.

    I have gotten PTSD from this game, while carrying a survivor, I walked through a pallet, and actually jumped when I saw where I was
