Desperate Call item for killers calling in another killer

Hear me out on this one.

If you ever played killer, you probably ran into the obnoxious kind of players that play just to be little pieces of (nope).

Now, people also complain about the Q times for killers, so how about this:

Introduce an item for killers they'll carry automatically that allows them to once or twice per hour (so, not every match) to call upon the Entity to send in another killer to deal with these brats.

If the item is used a killer looking for a match gets a popup that another killer calls for their aid, how many survs and gens are left etc. if killer 2 accepts the summon, both killers get only 50%-75% of the bloodpoints.

Maybe have a premium version of the item that allows for Summons every second match?

Also limit the use to 'at least one gen has to be done OR no two gens within a certain timelimit'

And, maybe, if the match goes on for 'too long' by the time of the calling, the entity will block the hatch.

    This would be extremely unbalanced. Two killers vs 4 survivors is just unfair. If the two chase a single survivor together then the survivor has no chance. Why would this ever be a good idea? If the killer is bad then he can just team up and make the game extremely unfair. Not to mention they'd have to recode a lot for this part of the game.

    Taking BP is NOT a sufficient deterrent for in-game actions.

    Also why would the entity blocking the hatch make the game any shorter? If anything it would make the game longer since survivors cant jump into it and end the game.

    Edit: Also, survivors being ######### is not an excuse to add a game mechanic that skews the game HUGELY in the killer's favor

    I'm talking about games where the survivors hold it hostage for (nope) and giggles. A second killer would be a 'punishment' for being obnoxious, and the blocked hatch would deprive them of a way to weasel out.

    aka 'you made this bed, now die in it'
