Michael Myers should be able to kill via lockers

As a person who's achieved the Evil Incarnate trophy, I hear many players are having issues with it with survivors d/c or more commonly jumping in to lockers to avoid execution.

One way this could be eased would be to give Michael the ability to use his tombstone kill ability via the locker.

Michael could open the locker, grab the hiding survivor and stab them, similar to how Michael killed Bob in the original Halloween. He could then look at the dead survivor for a second, tilt his head, before retrieving his knife and continuing.

    this achievement is the most frustrating thing to get at "red rank" final survivor allways runs to a locker and DC to deny you the achievement.

    Lord no. Tombstone piece is already one of his best addons if you don't care about points and just want to end the game and having no counter at all besides pallets/windows (kind of) would be god awful.

    It's not exactly making it harder when they're exploiting a way to never allow you the opportunity. I don't think they had the idea of people jumping into a locker to avoid it when they were thinking it up and I doubt they'd consider it "tech" either.

    @Almo @Peanits What's the verdict on jumping in a locker to avoid Mikey's grab mori?

    it's not really a counter. it's just exploiting a flaw in the game design that the devs refuse to fix. there's no reason Myers should logically be able to kill someone by grabbing them in the open, but not from grabbing them out of a locker. It's Myers that has no counter to lockers in a chase. and the fact they can deny the achievement by simply turning the game off is certainly not legit, yet the devs wont fix it either.

    Keep in mind that the only reason people actually play this way is for that trophy anyway. it's not like it's fun past the first 2 tombstone pieces you use for practice.

    So you want to get it for free without survivors having a counter? We made a myers DC tbe other night after he tombstoned out rsndkm teammate. Lol he was so mad. I just kept jumping on gens and forcing him to yank me off, he slugged me, I got up and went right back in a locker or on a gen. But thing is, we all are kuller mains too. We knew what he wanted. We won't make it easy. You wanns end a survivors game really quick and deny them points then you deserve not to get it.

    I’m okay with the challenge as is.

    I think they know exactly what they were doing. Like I say it needs a counter and this is what was decided. Expect a change to the archaic easy kill Myers add on before a change to make it easier to perform, both of which are totally unnecessary.

    I got this trophy and yes survivors jumping into lockers is a pain, but you can't blame them for not wanting to be out that quickly

    I always go into the locker once he reaches EW3, once as the last Survivor the guy tried to bait me after pulling me out smacking the Exit Doors switch then dropping me off, I ran straight towards the locker again. He was reaaaaaaaaaally mad in the post chat screen, the other Survivors were laughing their backs off.

    I don’t expect survivors to let me mori them, of course they’re gonna avoid it with the one counter. Seems like you have bad luck through, 2/3 of my games the last survivor will give themselves to me since they want the mori when I have tombstone.

    You know it takes ages to stalk someone for that to happen?
