Ever find yourself rooting for the Killer to kill a teammate?
Am I the only one who does this? I feel kinda guilty, but when a teammate is playing so selfishly and toxic, I sometimes stick around and spectate to cheer on the Killer if they’re the last Survivor alive.

I do this sometimes. If it felt like a particular Survivor was being a big derp, I'll hope the Killer gets them in the end.

I don’t feel as bad anymore, glad I’m not the only one who does.
1 -
I do it sometimes.
A few matches ago I had a Meg I was hoping the Killer would Kill because they kept unhooking the (other) Kate while the Killer was near and then not even taking a protection hit, just letting the Kate be chased until she was removed from the game.
On top of that she did one Gen. With me. The rest of the time she was crouching in corners.

I won't help the Killer do it.
But if I die first, I'll watch.
6 -
lol yes, whenever I see a tbagging clicky clicky survivor
4 -
Yep.
Another petty thing I do is if this kind of teammate was bringing the team down, and they griefed me in particular, once they’re hooked I make an effort to run up to them and just point repeatedly, making it very clear I have no intention of unhooking them and hope they die first hook. It’s even better if the killer comes over and leaves me alone and just watches me do this. I don’t usually care if I die after this. Just as long as I made my point
Petty I know. But I hold a grudge against toxic teammates.
13 -
Oh absolutely. I’ve had one toxic survivor to both the killer and teammates that constantly kept clicky clicky, teabagging the killer and us and sandbagging. The two of us still alive motioned the killer to follow and we brought him to the Claudette urbaning in the bushes at dagwood
3 -
Yep. Had a David sitting in the basement all game, going in and out of lockers and doing absolutely nothing for the team. I usually spectate anyway just to see what happens but I was kinda hoping he would die. Turns out he found a key and killer carried him to the hatch instead lol
4 -
I HATE THIS SO MUCH. When the killer gives a free escape to the teammate that deserved to die first.
15 -
Indeed, there are just some teammates that will do nothing but screw their other 3 teammates in the hopes theyll be the last one standing, so when they're next on the chopping block, i cant help but watch.
4 -
Yes, rarely though. Just depends if the survivor tilted me enough.
2 -
I don't just root for it, I relish it. Solo queue is hard enough as it is and when I get a teammate who farms their team or refuses to do gens and hide near the killer to constantly try flashlight saves, failing every time, I pray that they get caught.
I love it when a toxic teammate is t-bagging at the exit gate a little too far from the finish line and gets downed with NOED. It makes my night and gives me good dreams.
3 -
Yuuuup. I don't really dwell on things like that, but it always seems to happen in matches where we would've had a decent chance with just one more person working on gens
1 -
I like keeping them for the end and let them die from bleeding out. If they are console player, oh well to bad I can't see them rage. If they are PC I go grab some popcorn and tell them when you act like a dick you get treated like one.
2 -
Whenever I'm with a Steve.
1 -
You gotta love the farmers. Taking a hit is the LEAST thing she could’ve did. This literally happened to me a few days ago and I wish the Killer would’ve punished her.
1 -
Anytime a survivor is just hiding the whole match with a key or waiting for hatch I’m hoping they die first.
4 -
When it's a teammate that has been useless or screwing over the team I 100% hope the killer to kills them.
2 -
Survivors that hide in the basement all match, or stand on hatch while the last player is on hook. I'm not advocating players die for altruism, but if you're hiding all match at the expense of your team, my blood pressure will rise. Repeat offenders of Self-care usage after every scratch will also enrage me, since I can see them with Kindred 😒
2 -
You have NO IDEAAAAAA how many times this has happened to the Survivor on my team who did jack #########. It grinds my gears so bad.
1 -
I will always root for the killer to take out a useless teammate who did nothing all game, especially if they are the last one. In my mind, the useless survivors really don't deserve to escape after doing nothing all game. I've had times where I would find such a player hiding in a locker, so I'll just try to open it and then point at it for the killer like "hey they're in here, get them." Ain't nobody got time for all that nonsense.
1 -
As soon as they farm me or beckon me to follow them and lead me to the killer, I start hoping they get killed. Sometimes killers figure out when your own teammate is griefing you and kill them first -- it's a wonderful thing when it happens.
1 -
If the teammates does nothing yes I do
1 -
Sometimes I do if they really ticked me off. The most recent example I can think of was a Feng Min against Pig.
I was on my first hook, Jake was injured and had an active bear trap on his head, and the third survivor was doing a gen somewhere. So what does Min do? She tries healing Jake. The guy with an ACTIVE BEAR TRAP on his head. She doesn't do gens, nor does she go for the person on the hook while the Pig was on the other side of the map. She decided to prevent the person who was trying to survive from surviving by healing him. Oh, and I died on first hook because of this.
This one Min killed half the team. And she ALMOST got hatch. It was so satisfying seeing her get hooked. If I remember correctly, I think she was green rank as well. I've seen brown ranks play better.
2 -
I do. Sometimes I feel silly to do so since it can turn into a super long game. Then there's times where I regret it. Some Feng or Meg that was frustrating and sabotaging the team with her failures (miss skill checks on healing) was given the hatch by the Killer when she brought both a key and a Haddonfield offering. LIKE REALLY, YOU SPARE HER?!?
Though I also left a Nea to bleed out once cause she was more harm to the team than good when it came down to just her and me. The killer didn't like this and let me bleed out as well. But was I really obligated to save her horrible performance in what is obviously the 4K slug bait tactic for the sweat lords? Nope.
1 -
Way too often. Sometimes I also die trying to make it happen
3 -
when there is 2 people left and you see them get in a locker with bond near the hatch.... Run the killer to the locker and open it in his face XD
1 -
A lot of people don’t think of the other survivors as teammates. Just made a post and apparently it’s ok to play selfish cause your not a team. All that matters is you getting out. Screw your other survivor players.
2 -
This is why Solo Queue is my worst nightmare.
1 -
Watching the hatch gremlin die is my gultiy pleasure.
1 -
i won’t lie, sometimes I do take joy in seeing that one immerse teammate who accidentally bumps into the killer while they were chasing someone else 😂
1 -
i love watching that urban evasion self care claudette who did nothing all game besides sit in a corner get penetrated with a meat hook.
2 -
Don’t forget they usually have keys too.
1 -
I call them hatch hoverers.
1 -
Sometimes when someone is being too derpy, tries to sell the others or is trying to being a useless jerk (people with flashlights following a Killer trying for blinds and failing miserably, they dont fix gens and they dont save the downed teammate).
1 -
I had a Jake who sat at the top of the basement stairs and didn't come down to unhook me despite the killer being nowhere near the motor shop so I ended up dying on first hook. Never wanted a survivor to die that badly before.
At end game chat he said he didn't know where the stairs were. That would be fine and dandy but the thing is... he was a rank 1 survivor. I've never met a rank 1 survivor who couldn't find a set of stairs.
1 -
All the time every game.
1 -
“I didn’t know where the stairs were”
I just laughed so hard at this, like what is going on.. xD

It was a very bizarre experience that's for sure XD
1 -
once had a blendette on dead dawg do nothing but hide in bushes with a key all match. nurse eventually found her, hooked her, another team mate unhooked her immediately without BT, she went down again and nurse proceeded to mori her whilst the others t bagged her during the animation and then continued to t bag her corpse, whilst the nurse stood there nodding.
it was a sweet, unifying moment. She then proceeded to finish her slaughter (no more moris though).
1 -
This guy who was being very stealthy throughout the whole damn game and was never hooked - only good at gens and running off after unhooking someone. He was the last guy alive and ended up getting bashed on the hook by the killer when I spectated. It was the best.
0 -
My friend does that actually. I do that sometimes when I get hatch. Adieu survivor.
0 -
Every time I make a post about solo Q I get a few people saying how they don't have to help etc, but as soon as you're the one being facecamped they expect you to stay on hook as long as possible so they can escape.

Always love watching the people who sandbag and grief me on purpose get owned by the killer, and I've made it my priority to target a survivor when playing killer who's being a big bastard to their teammates and I don't care if I lose. Hate those kinds of people who love to ruin other people's fun, but it feels oh so satisfying giving them their well deserved karma.
1 -
I remember playing with my friend and we get 2 claudettes just doing nothing the whole game, i was pissed but when i die and look it was rank 18 and 19. Moral of the story: dont always blame your teammates, cause they might be literraly new players
0 -
This was after rank reset one month when I decided to play survivor more. I was a rank 20 because I hadn't played survivor in a very long time.
Anyway, a Claudette sandbagged me then hid in a locker 10 feet away from the hook when the killer wasn't even nearby, so I died on first hook because one of my teammates was being chased and the other was hiding in a locker.
0 -
I think everyone does this, especially when your teammate is a locker hopper or a hatch camper.
0 -
If a survivor leads a killer to me and tries to block my path or force me to take a hit because they are trash I will root for them to get tunneled out of the game 100%
Now if taking a hit makes sense and they aren't just trying to have the killer aggro me that's solid gameplay.

I was playing a surv game with a friend and there was a P3 Steve with Dead Hard, Sprit Burst, Head On and Adrenaline and had a purple flashlight. It ended up being me and steve left against a deathslinger and according to my friend the Steve found hatch but I was doing gens.
Then this steve had the best idea I’ve ever seen.
The steve found the killer and brought him all the way across the map to the gen I was working on and pointed at me and flashes at me, mid chase. The deathslinger changes his target from steve to me then I go down and get hooked (for the first time) and what do you know. Steve is back at the hatch tbagging it as hard as he could.
I wasn’t feeling that petty so I just killed myself and hoped that the killer would find steve before he gets hatch but steve got out in the end.

All the time, I'm vindictive.
