Get rid of BT base kit
What is the point of having BT as base kit? Ya, to be anti-tunnel, but this just give survivors the chance to body block and tbag when they block a door. It is used to just be toxic now on. They need to get rid of it because of toxic behavior and unfair gameplay.

We've heard your complaints, on both sides! Survivors feel that the basekit BT isn't long enough, and killers feel it is unfair during endgame. Therefore, we will be making the following changes to address both.
The effect of "Decisive Strike" is now basekit replacing the previous Endurance upon an unhook, however the stun lasts 5 seconds, and works off of both hook states. Equipping the perk "Decisive Strike" will prolong the 60 second timer by a further 50/55/60 seconds.
Naturally, this is still disabled by a conspicuous action.
A finger of the money paw closes ominously.

Maybe... I don't know... count to 5? Or 15? And If they don't make a sound, just hit them anyway? It's not a big deal.
Or maybe use Tombstone Myers. Bodyblocking survivors love to get grabbed by Mikey when they try to tank a hit.

Basekit BT is 5 seconds - if they're blocking you, then you can wait 5 seconds and down them - if you then choose to pick them up/tunnel them well - they had the opportunity to run away rather than bodyblock you.
Also teamplay strategies are not toxic - there's nothing toxic about trying to take an extra hit for your team-mate in a chase or use your endurance strategically.

How are we complaining about Basekit BT which lasts like what 5 seconds do you really want to tunnel that bad ?
Most survivors run OTR right now so if you want my advice just hit them when they get off the hook so their OTR is deactivated and they wont come take any hits for their teammates or teabags you Mr.Clueless killer.
Stay focused brother.

It’s only 5 seconds…

Honestly, as a survivor and killer player I'd say the opposite.
Increase the base-kit BT to at least 10 seconds.

It should stay. I like not having plague and Pyramid insta down me when I'm farmed.

I know this is a joke, but I would love to see some form of basekit DS in the future.
I have no idea who in the right mind would complain about a 5 second BT basekit during endgame. That one has to be a joke as well, right?
The basekit endurance and haste duration obviously needs to be increased. And it needs to stay during endgame. Survivors should have at least a bit of a chance to get a 4 man escape as well.

How often are you near an unhook as a killer and the survivors both run through a doorway and the unhooked survivor stops to bodyblock you all within 5 seconds of the unhook? 🫤

I like the suggestion of increase basekit BT to 10 seconds but remove collision on the unhooked survivor during this time period. No Killers can prevent a survivor from reaching a tile by bodyblocking and no survivors can try to bodyblock for the unhooker. It sounds pretty good to me.

Call me skeptical, I can count on maybe one hand the times I've been bodyblocked in a doorway let alone had it happen right after an unhook.

if you can't wait out 5 whole seconds before hitting someone, that is a you problem. if anything they should make basekit BT longer because it currently does nothing to actually prevent tunneling
