    Learn to use dead hard to dash to a pallet or window, rather than try to make the killer miss because even if you time it right on point the hit will probably still go through.

    If you dead hard for a window you need to be use it far enough back so you can still get a fast vault.

    For example if you wanna dead hard for distance as its refered to inside of shack when making your loop you would use it as soon as you made it through the door without the pallet so you still fast vault and get maximum distance with your dead hard.

    If you use it for shack pallet you would use it about half way into shack so that your dead hard would put you just about the outside of the door and you just spam the hell out of that pallet drop button.

    Another way to use dead for experienced players is to take a hit but not really at the hook.

    If your team mate is being carried you can run into swinging range and use dead hard to avoid the hit. Some times they swing some times they don't, but never know so many times all it would have taken was 1 missed swing for someone to wiggle off.

    Because the killer hit you before you could even see it.
