The deathslinger is completely overpowered
If its not a level 20 playing it for the first time its game over. This killer is impossible to beat. You do a standard T and L wall you vault any window and thats it game over. Every killer you can escape from. Nope vault a window bang hes got you. And you cant break the wire or stop the hit. Ontop of that he runs at 4.6m/s. He can just run you down. So you either use the limited pallets you have assuming your team mates didnt just throw all of them down in the first 30 seconds. Then somehow pray he misses in deadzones by spamming a+d. Then you get to a jungle gym which you should be safe on. Nope. Killershack? Jump a window doesnt matter. Best chance is to fake a window and if he doesnt fire early (he can literally just wait for the animation) he'll just run you down before you can get to the shack pallet or any pallet. You could loop shack at best once or twice and hes run you down. And the window fake doesnt work well against many lower players. Let alone decent players. Hes so broken and I've lost 100% of all games against him when theres a decent non-afk non-level20.
If you vault a window you should be safe period. It should just give you a broken status. Not a guarnteed death if u use any window.

He's definitely better than we thought now that killers are getting used to him.
But that's a good thing actually.

Buddy he is a 4.4 killer and he has big drawbacks for missing shots. He excels in chases but has bad map pressure. Stop whining and figure out a strategy.

I don't find him fun to play against for those exact reasons plus an unnecessarily small terror radius, but that doesn't make him overpowered, just badly designed (imo). I'm sure plenty of people have fun playing as and against him. I am not one of those people. tbh, Deathslinger is the first killer to actively make me want to d/c, which I never condone doing.

He is fun to play against and not extremely easy to win with. I was the last only to escape the other day and it was intense wondering if I was going to get shot in the back before I could get out haha

The point is you cant escape him if he lines up a window shot. A lot of the comments mention playing against him. But I'm specifically talking about windows. There is no strategy to avoid 100% death on a T and L wall. And if he has good aim then what? It's 100% death. And you dont need good aim for windows. It should be a bleed damage not a down state.

Yep another deathslinger its ass. Did 3 gens. Doing the last gen, run to a L window to try to get away fake nothing then sprint jump bang shot. He he hex that exposes you and mori. First hit after doing 3 gens and 5 minutes I get found and was killed within 20seconds and eliminated from game. WHAT A FUN GAME.

So what I'm hearing is u want him to be the next legion? U get no reward for shooting a survivor when there injured so I would legit have to basic hit u? Thats so dumb this comment is dumb y would I want no reward for spearing a injured survivor 😂😂 he is just like huntress with the whole window thing if she lines up her shot she will "100%" hit u too. What u want her to have a bleed effect instead of down effect too? 😂😂😂

I would like to just say that there are several ways that should all be viable to play survivor ("He is fun to play against" is not objectively true), and while it seems your preferred gameplay consists of outwitting a Deathslinger's aim, mine does not. Sure, I can dodge and attempt jukes, but most times, I would much rather not be in that chase in the first place. However, I am often forced by the nature of this current state of DbD to pressure gens as much as I can to the detriment of my fun and personal safety if I have any desire to escape the match alive without using powerful perks, top tier chase techniques, and impactful items/add-ons.
I never have a good experience against The Deathslinger, in short. I have no fear of him, just resignation and annoyance, and that's something I would rather not feel. I would love to have that experience of being on the edge of my seat not knowing if I'll be shot or not. I do not have that feeling currently, and I'm siding with the group that wants to change The Deathslinger to keep the aspects you like while giving me back the feelings I should have in a horror game.

OP is either low quality bait or some bby survivor who needs to git gud. Either way, no one should take OP seriously.

*blink* I just looked at the OP again and was surprised by how not cohesive it is. Was the original post always like that? I seem to remember something different there before... HMMM. Must just be my imagination 😅
