Yes

That's considered holding the game hostage as that survivor can be trapped indefinitely. If the End Game Collapse is triggered, then no as there is now a definite end, but that's certainly in poor taste

If you were actually still chasing survivors and otherwise still engaging in the game as Victor, possibly not bannable, but this is very grey as a nay the Twins are capable of this.
If however you’re just trolling, yes it’s probably something that can get you reported.

If you are doing it just to keep them there, yes.
If you are actively downing their team, maybe not

Otz was playing Twins on his stream yesterday and literally did this.
He was chasing a Nea and I think a Felix, the Nea ran into a corner on a T wall and he immediately trapped her as Charlotte, switched to Victor and took the other player down.
Obviously he intended to immediately down the other survivor as Victor, so the Nea would have been trapped as long as that chase took him.
But where do you draw the line, what if you trap a survivor at the start of the game and keep using Victor to harangue the other survivors?

Alright thanks for the answers.
Did this shortly before EGC but was still chasing and downing them and after i downed 2 survivors i also hit the one i trapped there.

If you did it purely to griefe them then 100% yes but if you're doing it as part of strategy to down and kill all survivors then possibly not.
I really can't tell since this is such a weird state to be in, with one body bodyblocking and the other one playing the match normally. If you do it for like 1-3 min it's certainly fine but if you keep that survivor there for like 5+min it might become a problem.
I think mods would tell you to not do it for any prolonged amout of time since they wouldn't want to promote such kind of gameplay that traps survivors in a spot unable to do any actions or get out. But since it's pretty rare to get into such position, you'd probably be fine as long as you don't over abuse it, trapping them for far too long.

That last sentence is a good example of crossing the line. You'd draw the line at simply keeping them there instead of downing the person.

In this case, you should be fine.

Even if the other chase only takes a few seconds, that outcome will not happen all the time.
The sole intention of this is to trap the player and prevent them from playing the game, which is the definition of griefing.
It doesn't matter how many excuses you can come up for doing it, it will result in a ban if you're reported with evidence.

Okay that is different. That is fine, that's just a decent play.
If you had done it before and kept that person trapped there for an extended period of time, clearly not letting them even play nor just downing them and getting it over with- that would be a reportable offense.
The situation you are describing, at that period of the game, where you then went and took quick action on others and then downed them, is honestly fine.
I mean it's no different than a survivor body blocking you to make sure a teammate escapes. You're fine.
Survivor was probably embarrassed and a bit mad but you are in the clear haha.

If they can prove you were griefing them it is

It would not in this case, I assure you.
We actually had a thread with a similar topic about a twins player who did something like this and it was confirmed by staff to be fine in that instance as it was just gameplay and obviously not griefing. It was also not for long it was just for about the duration of endgame which is probably longer than even this guy held them. You are obviously holding them with an intention and not holding the game hostage at all, things still progressed.
It was just a smart play, hold healthy person there, quickly down injured people, and then get the healthy person.
It's not, unless OP lied about the situation.

Ugh, Twins need a hard rework. The fact that this is such a grey area is just awful. No other killer has anything like it.

Second that.

I once managed to corner a Steve on Thompson House where the chest spawns upstairs in the house as myers. Egc triggered and I waited for it to reach a specific point then let him go and watched him get so close to the exit gates but I had timed it so he wouldn't have enough time so the entity got him, he wasn't happy, I was in pain from laughing.

I don’t think it’s bannable. You’re still playing the game as victor, so you’re still progressing the game. Blocking that survivor just gives you advantage, and there is no reason to let go of that.
2 -
twins needs a lot of tweaking, the fact he can do that and also block the doors and making it for the survivor COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE to escape is just pure bad design, not even considering how unfun it is to play agaisnt him wich is another problem.

I'd hope it is. However with how bad the report team is I'd be shocked if they ever banned that person.
Still haven't got word back about a hacker I faced 4 times 3 weeks ago

It’s considered grieifing that survivor and it is bannable. Even if you are using victor on everyone else you are still holding that player hostage and preventing them from participating in gameplay. It’s also scummy as #########.

cause you say... its a mech of the game, its banneable to make genrush, to make click click...
0 -
So being toxic for the sake of being toxic.
2 -
It's egc that's not called being toxic it's called securing a kill you're just mad you couldn't do it

You are actively grieifing the survivor by preventing them from playing. That’s what op asked and he answered that. Genrush and click click aren’t preventing the killer from playing the game, trapping a survivor in a corner is preventing them from playing the game which as I said above is considered grieifing

If you were actively still playing the game and did not keep them in there for a long amount of time, you should be fine if "shortly before EGC" does not mean like 5 minutes before EGC.
However, if you'd do this throughout the whole game and not give the survivor a chance to get away, thus blocking them in there for several minutes and preventing them from playing the game, this can be considered griefing and holding the survivor hostage.
