Any survivors you show no mercy or you show compassion towards?
Are there any survivors that you won’t kill or will kill by any means. For me Jills, Claires, Nancys and Kates I let escape as they are the survivors I use. I gave Nancy and Jill hatch today In back to back games. Everyone else is not safe especially Claudette’s I will go for them first and make it a nightmare for them since they are terrible teammates in solo que. And if they flashlight click or tag, they get face camped idc about the game at that point😭

I treat all the survivors the same personally. I admit I get extra satisfaction from downing Blendettes though.

I dodge a lobby if i see Leon. i love him and i can't play against him.
The survivors i can't stand are Jane and Elodie. they just annoy me a lot.

I don't bother killing survivors anymore, but if one survivor does give me a particularly annoying chase I will give them the head 'yes' nod and then hook them.

Can't kill a Yui because I'm deathly afraid of them.

I tend to punish hubris, even if it comes at the expense of letting other players go.
- Unprovoked click macros
- BT protect hits
- Antagonistic names (Played a guy whos name was "1v1 Me at T+L Wall" and proceeded to make me follow him through 18 windows at a T+T double window tile. Needless to say, I wasn't letting him get off the hook ever again, not as Myers. He was surprisingly indignant afterwards.
- Stopping a gen from regressing mid chase
The kind of play where it's like "Yeah, this would never be cannon in the imagined world of The Fog, but I'm going to abuse the hell out of it anyway." - Those are tickets straight to the entity for me.
I love to give hatch to players who surprise me with unconventional play, but it's rare nowadays.

That’s fair and that last part that you mention is me too lol

If you mean character, not really. Well, Jeff usually gets free escape...
Actions? Yeah, those can kill you really fast.
if I see you teabag after each pallet stun, you will die. If I hear flashlight macro, you will never get from that hook, if I can stop it.

Yui’s are scary to go up against

Jeffs always live

That’s fair I don’t avoid lobby’s unless they have full flashlights. I did kill two Nancy’s by accident tho. One of them I hooked and they let her die on first hook. The second one was just following me around and we memed around while I was going after everyone else. She died because of the timer in the egc she didn’t want me to leave without a kill😞

I'm usually compassionate, but I'm especially nice to survivors that seem new, or who generally seem like good teammates and try to run interference in chase/bodyblock if I follow them to a hook. Tbaggers and flashlight clickers get no mercy.
1 -
I refuse to kill Nancy, Kate, Elodie, Zarina, and Jane unless they leave me no choice.
I will give Nea and Feng everything I have to destroy them.
2 -
I feel bad for killing Dwight, Zarina, Leon, Cheryl, Lisa, Mikaela, Claire, Bill, and Jake.
I don't feel bad for Ace, Meg, David, Jane, Ash, Chris, Felix or Jill though.
The rest of the survivors I'm neutral with.
But if any of the survivors act toxic in game, they're going to get sacrificed regardless.

Yes I feel the same way about neas sometimes fengs but neas get the Claudette treatment
0 -
Mikaleas screams are sad to hear honestly
1 -
None.
Only newbie players really regardless of the "skin" the choose to wear.
I don't see survivors, only victims i haven't met.

All Quentins get mercy that's about it.

I like Steve's and Jonathan's.
I really really really hate Claudette's.

There is a special place in the dark corner of my heart for Blendettes. If they don't surprise me with fun, normal gameplay but insist on immersing themselves with the environment, I'll make sure that they become officially part of said environment.
But in all fairness, usually the choice of character model means nothing to me, but if you clickety click or t-bag me, I will usually show no mercy and might even tunnel you out.
1 -
Captain Insano show no mercy!
1 -
I sometimes show mercy, but that's in response tp a survivor's actions; not words.
I do have a thing for Cheryl, so I do feel a little bad offing her. Oddly enough, I've not remembered facing a toxic one neither!
But at the end of the day, the aim of the game is to end as many survivors befpre time runs out, so there won't be any preferential treatment unless I feel empathy for them.

I have never played against a Johnathan. I rarely get Steve’s but I have let them go especially when they are in a game with Nancy. They are like a packaged deal. For me when it comes to Claudette, it’s like when an animal is stocking its prey waiting for the perfect moment to strike. It also helps that I destroy them with demo who is a beast😂

Mercy:
(A) Any BPS or cake offerings
(B) Anyone asking for mercy
(C) Groups at random when I hit Iri One. Sometimes I just let everyone go, sometimes not
(D) Snoot boopers when I play Pig. One does not simply disrespect booping the snoot. I'll even crouch on the gens with them so they can screenshot the Pig trying to help them do gens if they want (not possible of course but looks funny)
Any of those lead me into just farming with the only exceptions being below. If I'm just farming I'll literally stand at a pallet so a survivor can stun me for their 1,000 points. Sometimes I have to turn my back to the survivor to show them it's not a trick and they I'll walk into pallet stuns so they can max put Boldness while we max out Chase.
No Mercy
(1) Tbaggers.
(2) Bully squads just trying to blind and/or stun me for no strategic purpose. If it unnecessarily happens once or twice, it could be for a challenge and I let it go but if it's plain it's just to annoy me all restraints come off.
(3) Survivors that don't respect that I'm farming. Rare but if I've hooked you once or twice and slugged you a couple if times I'm probably purposefully not putting you on death hook. If you them try to do flashlight saves to prevent me from my BBQ stack you get the third hook.
(4) Leaving a survivor to one hook. I don't care if they're a random but I try to maximize hooks, not kills, as it's more fun for everyone. If you leave someone to one hook when I'm on the other side of the map you get to be my proxy vengeance on the survivors that left me to one-hook in my solo queue.

Mercy for everyone who meme with me, got treated bad by their teammates or ppl who played godlike.
No mercy for neas and clicky clickys
2 -
I will always let Leon escape. He's my favorite game character of all time and he's hot AF. 😆
No mercy for Claudette... I despise her! She's usually the worst teammate (hides in bushes and usually won't help her team). She'd rather get hatch, lol.
3 -
People that put Kate in a sweater get annihilated, regardless how dirty I have to play. 3 EZ escapes for one dead sweater is a fair trade!
0 -
Kill, I will actually never give hatch or doors to Mikaelas or Nancy, Mikaela because of CoH if I'm being honest, Nancies because of the actual series, she broke my boy Steve's heart, screw her.
Mercy to Cheryls (Heather) however you want to call her, just because I love SH3.

Oh trust me I was one of those upset with how Nancy and Steve’s relationship ended. I don’t like her relationship with Johnathan. Steve and Nancy’s are ironically my two favorite characters in the show and I just played with both of them as my teammates in solo que😂
0 -
Exactly!!! Like in the show, I'm not saying IRL but in the show Steve is more of fit for Nancy, Jonathan and Nancy seems more forced than Steve and Nancy, like I know that the actors are married (the ones that play Jonathan and Nancy) but in the show it just doesn't seem great.
And saaaame, I play with them as well when I play Steve I always try my best to never let someone get camped or tunnelled if I can be the one that gets chased and with Nancy I meme a lot, head on and stuff.

Baby Dwights get leniency.
Nea must die. Hard tunnel if her outfit looks like she got into an accident with a paint truck.
Feng must die. Hard tunnel if Bunny Feng.
2 -
I let Jeffs and Steves escape. If i see a really cute and innocent survivor who is quite new to the game i will let them escape
1 -
No specific characters get special treatment, be it positive or negative. It’s the player that either gets it, or gets out.
If I feel like a particular survivor got screwed hard by their teammates, I let ‘em throw wood on my noggin, and they can do whatever. Weirdly, there’s been a handful that wouldn’t have the mercy, running and pointing at the nearest hook.
Funny survivors also get out.
Sometimes…
2 -
If a survivor was looping good, taking protective hits, doing gens and overall just a good teammate I might let them escape. Especially if the others were terrible.
If I’m doing terrible in a match due to survivor toxicity someone is going to die by any means. I’m talking they got 4-5 gens done and I haven’t hooked anyone bc of flashlights and hook blocking.
Also if I find you binding in a closet and everyone else is doing stuff you die. Especially if you wiggle immediately when grabbed. That means you did it intentionally and wasn’t just AFK.

if they're Meg or Nea they gotta GO.
