Don't T-Bag Your Killer

I mainly just play killer rounds for fun, as I've said before. Lately, I've been getting low rank survivors who t-bag on the way out after I've given them an easy game (as if they've really gotten something over on me by escaping). Then get thanked for it by them t-bagging on their way out. Never during the actual match, always as they're going out the door.

My point is this: Don't t-bag a killer that has literally given you a free escape. Killer mains, I can completely understand why some of you go sweaty as all hell. I don't like it but I now completely understand it. Not to mention, it makes you look super f'ing stupid when you are doing it to a killer who has played the game honorably because they can tell you do not yet have any skill at the game. Just don't.

    interesting fact, lots of new players seem unfamiliar with 'offerings of peace' too, aka, put your item down in front of the killer at the gate and leave.

    This is why I'm a try hard 90% of the time. If your going to tea bag me I'm going to make you work for that escape.

    This game makes me laugh a lot, usually I will squat down as saying goodbye or hello in funny games, but I don't mean it in teabagging way, and I've had ghost face and other killers do it back lol, I guess it depends on the type of killer/survivor you go against ya know.

    That's totally why I left it like that... after I read it back to myself, that's what I heard going through my mind. What you just said. lmao.

    Just play Ghostface and proceed to have a Tbagging contest.

    Just play Ghostface and follow my 3 step formula:

    1.T-bag back

    2.They come closer because of your friendly gesture

    3.Kill them all

    (This works about 40 percent of the time)

    I don't mean like the playful, friendly t-bag. I do that myself sometimes. I mean like the 'hahaha #########, you're not going to catch me.' t-bag. Idk you can just tell a difference. Just like you can tell a new survivor from a skilled survivor.

    I was playing Ghostface in the last round of it but they literally do it at the barrier then run out immediately because they're scared shitless. The thing is that if I wanted to kill them all I would have done it and it just really annoyed me at the time. You give them more breaks than a hooker in court and they want to be smartasses afterwards. You'd think they just juked their way to victory.

    The problem with a game so devoid of expression/emotes is that tbagging tends to be the go-to for everything. I personally understand that it is, more often than not, considered disrespectful to the killer but a LOT of newer players don't think of it that way 100% of the time.

    I myself will tbag the killer in a non disrespectful way here and there- no idea if the killer gets it or not but I'd assume so considering the situations (accidentally and horribly sandbagging a teammate, standing at a second story window while they're looking at me from the ground, when I land on something a survivor doesn't usually land on [box, rock, etc]). I don't really feel like it's my problem if the killer takes it the wrong way if I'm trying to "meme" with them since I have very few other options to catch their attention otherwise (cause pointing DEFINITELY seems ruder in certain situations LOL).

    Anyways, my point is just that tbagging isn't always malicious- certain situations it almost always is, other situations not so much, and then some people just don't understand yet what it means to a killer.

    Cuz ######### survivors won't leave and you have to wait in the corner for 4 minutes then?

  • delilahsupastar
    delilahsupastar Member Posts: 40

    Exactly!! If not, they wait there all of endgame collapse.

    Yeah, I get that. i just got out of a match with a Ghostface where we all teabagged each other the whole match. Personally, it doesn't bother me in a way that it ruins my day or anything like that, because at the end of the day I main survivor... killer rounds don't mean a whole lot to me.. it just gives me an understanding as to why some killer mains go all try hard and start hating survivors.

    Or maybe don’t take the t bag so serious?

    Like it is really not that deep.

    Man you guys must of not been around in MW2 days. T bagging is just an animation, it literally does nothing to enhance the game or players ability

    Man, that works if you are calm by nature, but if you are not, or if you had a bad day, or if you faced a bully squad - this thing can get you.

    So it's easy to say, but I think that most people can't do that 100% of time.

    Don't give them easy games; don't feed the bears. You aren't doing them any favors, and clearly they don't understand (or appreciate) your gesture. Play Hard, even when playing for fun. You will make them into better Survivors. I never go easy on anyone. If I decide to let someone go, I try to make it clear. I down them, and then carry them to the hatch or the gate. I want them to KNOW so they don't get the idea that their bad play was good play. Does that make sense?

    "gg". I've found this is the best approach when playing killer.

    In the event Survivors whine about being tunneled, you camping - or if they're toxic in-game and say things like "gg ez" when you have a bad one, just type "gg". No matter what.

    It shows

    1.) Complete ambivalence and apathy to their whining in the event of a win.

    2.) Their toxic antics didn't even get your pulse rate above 85 in the event of a loss.

    3.) In a good game without toxicity, it shows you're a gracious winner or a good sport when losing.

    You just can't go wrong.

    Newish player here. You shouldn't teabag the killer. I never teabag to be toxic, it's just silly and immature. But on the rare occasion a killer is merciful and lets me escape, I will give 2 SLOW crouches to the ground to say thank you. Is this how most of you killers would see it? Or is this better communicated through pointing / nodding? Want to be the least toxic survivor main I can be given the state of some of these dummies in game and on the forums lol.
