BHVR's reasoning for justifying the Deadlock nerf is false
Comments

That is factually true but it's good that way.
Old ds was an offensive tool rather than a defensive, which is the idea behind the perks current design. I'd rather not go back to these times.
To my distaste, I already encountered people over the last few weeks that used otr + ds + dh extremely offencive.
Not fun at all.
Both sides get smacked in terms of perks from time to time. Could we stop with this tribalism?

I don't get this mindset. Buckle Up + For the People and Background Player are literally getting nerfed this patch as well, and there are enough other survivor perks that have gotten nerfs in the past too.
DS is also not a busted perk, it's a necessary evil because of how strong tunneling and camping are, and the nerf to 4 seconds is already pretty stupid if you ask me.

At first I thought his main gripe was the fact that they nerfed it for the wrong reasons, but still deserved a nerf. But asking them to undo the most minimal and mundane nerf to a meta perk in history is just absurd.

I think the only fair response to tunneling is to give a repair speed to the remaining survivors when one is dead
like a 3% speed bonus of repairing multiplied by the amount of gens left
1 survivor dead at 5 gens = the remaining 3 survivors repair gens with a 15% bonus
Usually, if the killer doesn't tunnel, a survivor is dead with 1 or 2 gens left
So these survivors would be repairing the last 1 or 2 gens with a 3%/6% speed, which in my opinion is not that much considering the killer has the edge in chasing and keeping survivors away from the gens0 -
This bonus is too little to give any chance to win while 3v1.
Given that Sole Survivor is +75% I think it would be nice idea to buff ~+33% if someone is tunneled to death at the start of the match (with some restrictions).
Normal gen time: 90 seconds, with +33% buff it would be ~68 seconds solo.
Survivors are still in losing position (as there are some situations that require someone else's help: unhooking, healing) but I'd actually try to escape with those conditions.

I think we're getting carried away. BHVR needs to STOP making perks/addons that mess with movement speed, gen speed, and regression.
You take those three out and nothing remains but creativity and a much easier time to balance and actually enjoy the damn game.0 -
Game is balanced around 4v1, if someone is tunneled and this is 3v1, this match is already won by the killer and let's not pretend it isn't, okay?

BHVR are nerfing DS down to 4 seconds so idk what this complaint is about it not being looked at.
