How I would fix deathslinger without just reverting him

So deathslinger isn’t in the greatest spot at the moment and the devs haven’t touched him since his nerf. I have thought of some ideas of how to fix him without compromising the nerf he was given.

  1. Make his aiming sensitivity the same as his normal one. There’s no need for this at all especially with quick scoping gone
  2. Reduce his missed shot cooldown by a small amount. Since you’ll be missing more often now I feel he needs less punishment for doing so
  3. Terror radius is set back to 24M but he now has a 28M lullaby similar to the 2 other ranged killers
  4. Increase survivors movement on the chain while deathslinger walks backwards. Since this is his main counterplay when you get hit it should be more possible to make use of it.

With these changes I feel he would be a lot better and more fun to play than in his current state
