    MFT doesn't require any timing, 99-ing, vaulting. It just provides its nice bonus the whole time you are injured, which always happens.

    Sprint Burst

    Sprint Burst has the least pre-reqs and work-arounds, although worse players may walk more as a result. Any of the injury perks are countered by exposed/instadowns. Only a couple are hard to not actively screw up on normal use for newer players (Sprint/OC/MfT). The main difference between Sprint Burst and Made for This is how you get value. From a raw numeric (hold-W) perspective it would take 50s in chase for MfT to breakeven, but that doesn't take into account mid loop distances that it changes, or Killer power interactions (does nothing against Blight, but destroys Doctor due to his massive basekit personal slowdown, or nothing against stealth Killers engaged in hit-and-run). The universality of Sprint Burst and ease of access all make me think it is certainly the best per from that list.

    Made for This isn’t an exhaustion perk; it just can’t be used when exhausted. That makes it far easier to counter than an actual exhaustion perk.

    Sprint Burst

    In the right hands, Sprint Burst is a strong beast, especially with Blood Rush.

    Do I think it should be nerfed ? Heck no. Your average Meg uses it whenever it's available and not particularly 99'd, and I don't believe in balancing from the top down.

    How's that? Other exhaustion perks can't be used while exhausted either

    I guess I should’ve worded it differently. My first point being that MFT isn’t an exhaustion perk because it doesn’t cause exhaustion - the other perks do because the speed boost is so huge. MFT is easier to counter imo because while none of them can be used while exhausted MFT also has a much smaller haste that only works when you’re injured. I guess in simpler terms a perk like Sprint Burst is harder to counter because unless you can prevent them from using it they’re getting great value. MFT becomes useless if paired with any other exhaustion perk after their use and can be bypassed by the exposed effect or powers like Blood Fury. While you don’t have a cooldown on it the extra speed isn’t enough imo to make it more valuable than Sprint Burst. That’s just my opinion.

    MFT - Big chase extension, the stronger killers can ignore it.

    SB: anti tunnel. Safety net. Chase extension. Every single killer is affected greatly. Can be triggered at any moment if used properly.

    Suprised no one has said Adrenaline yet. If I'm bringing any exhaustion based perk it's that.

    Ah, I should've added that as it's own option, probably should've just added all of them as their own option tbh lol

    Made For This, mainly because it doesn't actually cause exhaustion
