    Walked around the Harvester instead of just running across the hay bales.

    I don't really get OP's first image.

    But I had a very good run and 4k streak as Killer a few days ago and then as Nurse I was already extremely overconfident in my abilities that I thought I could destroy any Survivor. Then I made many mistakes against a good Survivor as Nurse which cost me the game.

    Basically, I chased her for to long and she knew how to play against Nurse. Not that I am a bad Nurse, I just commited to the chase for to long instead of chasing others. That's one recent dumb thing I did as Killer.

    Pretty much I ran the worlds dumbest loadout for legion in the higher ranks



    I got completely ruined, never hooked anyone in basement for monstrous to work, cruel limits actually got me to down someone, brutal strength isn't really a legion perk, and STBFL isn't as good as legion

    Phone call had me late. Already loaded in on map by the time I got done. In my hurry put wireless headsets on wrong. Kept hearing survivors running and vaulting but could never find them. I was in a complete rage by the time I realized what the problem was.

    Playing the Clown without perks and addons on rank 1.

    (I got a kill tho, the guy must have been semi afk or something)

  • When I first started playing, I thought the hatch sound was like.. some badass music to signify that there is only one survivor left hiding. fortunately we were both rank 20 4heads so I still found and closed the hatch

    Let survivors escape just to be "nice". Like any survivor would run to the killer and give up just to help them ๐Ÿ˜„

    Don't generalize, I might be one in a thousand, but I take my toolbox off if I see 2+ toolboxes, here's an example of what happens when I do:

    I heard someone working on a generator on the tile I was going to hook a survivor, and still walked through the pallet (got stunned of course)

    I also may have slugged a no mither waay back (but thats only because I didnt know they could pick themselves up at the time)

    OHHH MY GOD donโ€™t remind me LOL.

    So I killed two people and one happened to have a key, I was running franklins so I killed them and the key dropped. There were still 4 gens left to do and I was slugging the Bill, and I couldnโ€™t find this Claudette ANYWHERE (I needed a 4k for the tome challenges). So I let him up and was looking around, I had that pink aura reading add on with ghost face so I knew where she kind of was but I literally just couldnโ€™t find her. Eventually Bill got two gens done while I was looking for her and suddenly I see they escaped. The only way with out of the hatch with the key. I never ran franklins after that LOL. (I didnโ€™t know there was a key even in the game until after, I had franklins because it was one of the only perks I had at the time)

    Tried picking up a downed Survivor while they were being healed. Did not know you could not do that.

    Waited out a DS at a locker thinking the person was still in there. Come to find out they were long gone as I opened the locker and nobody was in it. o.o

    It was a Claudette that snuck out before my eyes.

    I tried to run as Pig by pressing shift (It's a reflex).

    However my secondary ability key is bindined to Shift.

    Ended up crouching instead.

    Done the same with Hag as well with the teleport.

    Accidentally wearing my headphones backwards.

    It's really confusing if the sounds are reversed

    I set up a conga line with traps, hoping if I stepped in 1 it would force trapper through 1 end to the other


    Didn't work like that, got stuck on 2 traps and needed help

    Downed a Blendette right before the last gen got repaired and for some reason I thought she got up with Adrenaline since I couldn't see her in the grass. That made the start of a series of dumb and misinformed decisions resulting in the remaining 3 survivors escaping (while by my standards it could have been easily a 3k at least).

    I bought some new wireless headphones a few months ago and for the first few days I had them on the wrong way around and couldn't tell why directional sound was messed up.

    Forgetting to grab healthy survivors when they go for the hatch instead of hitting them. I forget.... Every. Single. Time. Smh

    Played Spirit while calling my girlfriend, so I had no headset on, kept my audio low (like at 5 notches) so I could hear her.

    My first games 2 years ago as killer, i really really though on few games that the death timer of an hooked survivor was actually an energy bar like in fighting games so i was hiting them on hook til death, lol poor ones

    I was so toxic without even knowing what it meant

    Downed someone that had last second Delivererance'd off the hook a few meters away from the open hatch... and then picked them up before closing the hatch. The moment I pressed spacebar I had a serious "wait a second what am I doing" moment. Needless to say they DS'd me and jumped into the hatch.

    Could've easily been prevented though so I still had a laugh at my mistake ๐Ÿ˜„

    I was a complete 4head and stuck around while a swf kept switching out on an infinite. And the worst part was that they were all blendetes who had the same outfit on
