Do you chase good loopers in shack?

Do you chase good loopers in shack? From my experience you will need to run three times the window and then eat the pallet. Then they can extend the chase at a neraby TL or jungle gym. So it takes quite some time to get them, and the gens will fly during this time.

So do you chase them in shack or just give up the chase?

    It depends on what killer you're using. If it's an m1 killer (think a Legion) without any specific perks like Bamboozle and I see the survivor perfectly waiting at the window and taking a fast vault, then I think thrice before committing.

    Most of the times I try not to, but sometimes I do chase them anyway

    Depends on the stage of the match and if I know where to go and where other survivors are, to drop the chase.

    And sometimes even if my instinct tells me to drop it, I will continue to chase much better player in a strong setup and lose the game because Im an idiot

    Depends on a lot of factors. Generally speaking, I'll only do so if I know I can either get a pallet out of it within a very short period of time or a hit due to them greeding the pallet. Obviously, gen positions, health states, the Killer I am playing and so on play a lot into it.

    It depends. I’ll watch and see how they play it. If they’re good and the shack is away from the other gens, or if it’s easily chained with other nearby tiles, I’ll probably leave. If there’s an unfinished gen in it, and/or the basement, or if it’s in the middle of the map, I’ll probably try to get the pallet out of them first and then I’ll leave.

    Depends how the game is going. If they are my first chase, no. If I already have pressure, some Hooks and the Survivors did not do many Gens (or no at all), I will just go for the Chase, because it is fun.

    Shack isn't that bad imo, you're probably not going to get a hit against good loopers but you can easily remove the pallet from the equation.

    Depends on which killer and what perks I am playing. If I am using the Hag I just start placing traps and the chases don't last long through there.

    I learned to give up on it with Trickster, but I can still slap them as Nemesis. It depends on what killer you're playing.

    Only if I'm playing an anti-loop killer, otherwise hell no.

    I'll try to burn the pallet but thats it, really depends on the killer and what stage the match is tho

    Depends on the stage of the match, I really want the shack pallet gone so most of the time yeah I will chase there.

    When I play trapper, those places are always trapped in advance, good loopers ..... not a problem 😏

    Yea I do actually. It's a challenge and I love challenges. And I mostly play Huntress and Nurse

    With some window mindgames or regular ones you can usually get a hit or the pallet relativally soon.

    Out of all the strong loops, shack is probably the weakest/fairest one

    also really funny if you get them with the old tripple window vault. nobody expects that

    I'll do a couple mindgame attempts and if they're visibly good, break chase. Can't afford to spend the time in one isolated area as the killers I play.

    I do as Doc and other anti-loop killers just to get the pallet out of the way. But with any other killer I'll run them for one loop or so to gauge their abilities then leave if its too much. Sure its good to get the shack pallet out of the way but it doesn't matter in some maps. So in other words it's very situational.

    I'll usually try at least. 99% of survivors don't know how to always secure a fast vault no matter the killer mindgames, so most of the time I get the pallet or a hit.
