Is teaming up with hackers reportable?

I had survivor game just now with a claudette that seemed kind of fishy from the start. She was just a little too fast in the chases she took and healed up very quickly. After she got hooked once and rescued and instantly healed up I was pretty sure that she was hacking. When she lost the next chase to the blight and was on second hook I refused to unhook her even though I was very close by. Another survivor that had not yet seen that she was hacking unhooked her, after which she crancked her hacks up to 100 to take revenge on us. Porting around the map the entire time leading the blight to our locations.

The blight just apparently accepted that and downed all of us and let the claudette escape in the end. In endgame chat he basically argued that he just played the game by downing all of us and therefor isnt reportable.

My question is basically: is it reportable what this blight did? Working with the hacker to win the game easily? Or does this really just fall under "just playing the game"

    I mean... he's kind of put into a weird situation?

    If he doesnt do anything then he kind of throws the game for himself, and if it were me I would probably do the same just to move onto the next game as soon as possible. Also I dont really think he had an option of letting the claud go since, well, if shes portin around and healing instantly theres not much he can do.

    I would of probably done the same just to move onto next as fast as possible, only person to blame here is the cheater.

    speaking as a killer once you see someone hacking crazily theres really nothing you can do they can instant heal and fly at mach 20 speeds. Could he have just let yall go? Yeah but i think he just tried to make it a normalish game

    Did he let the Claudette escape or was he unable to stop the Claudette because of hacks?

    Working with the Killer is a reportable offense, even without hacking.

    let claud escape? he didn't seem to have another option against a blatant cheater lol. i probably would do the same, just try to play the game. i wouldn't follow claud so she can show me survivors, but i'd just have my crumb of a gameplay and go next.

    teaming is a bannable offense (and very cringe) but as far as i know only the survivor will get banned not the killer if that happens and claud has more to worry about than that.
