Do you ever feel targeted because of the Survivor you play?
I play multiple Survivors and I have noticed that only when I play certain characters does the Killer hit me on hook, slug me, take me to Hatch to watch them close it, ect.
For me, I cannot have a good game as Yui, Dwight, Laurie or Leon.
I don't do this as Killer to anyone but was wondering if you think some Killers specifically torment or BM certain Survivors ?
Do any of you have a Survivor you want to play but get this feeling and avoid playing as them because of a similar, repetitive experience?

Cheryl. I feel like every killer has it out for me when I play her

Yeah, feels like I’m the only one in the match w the Killer whenever I play as Jill.
Also, maybe it’s just coincidence, how I could go 10 lobbies as Mikaela or Nancy or whoever, really, and everyone’s fine, but as soon as I pick Jane someone leaves. It’s really bizarre😄

Every pyramid head when I play James Sunderland
honestly imo it’s funny when I get tunneled by a pyramid head for playing James and I sometimes do it when playing killer

Usually only when I play baby Claudette or baby Dwight, as the killer may assume I’m bad. But that usually changes after first chase and then it’s normal.

Not really which Survivor, bald Dwight and brown Claudette aside.
What's interesting is that other survivors are wearing the same outfit, so if you match that, there's about a half chance that you'll be run over by a demon-like killer. "SWF, right? Okay, let's kill him without hesitation." I can hear the killer's inner voice. It's not a terrible experience, but rather the overwhelming sight just makes me laugh.

For me its because am a streamer, I main Leon and Yoichi but overall when your a streamer=killers 90% auto hate you.
0 -
Yeah, I've been dodging TTVs because the Killer just wants them so bad they'll ignore everyone else and then the TTVs get angry and either DC or give up on 1st hook
I feel terrible for them but it happens so often that I just decide to dodge
I ❤️ Yoichi too! I don't get BM when I play as him fortunately
Do you know why Killers hate TTVs so much? I don't get it because there are plenty of TTVs that play as Killer too

Not sure why. I assume if your good at survivor looping/saving teamates etch, Killer mains(specially streamer killer mains) it rubs their ego cause you as a survivor streamer has probably made that killer streamer Embarrassed in front of their viewers specially if its a popular streamer or content creator.

Do you also stream when you play Killer or Survivor only?
0 -
I do both but mostly survivor like 80% and killer 20%. p100 leon and yoichi and for killer *trickster and wesker*

I played with a P100 Yoichi several months back on the Erie of Crows map!
I remember he gave up after being hooked first.
I was so looking forward to playing with him and he went and did that 😞

I never let Ace/ Adam/ Tap/ Haddies go ever. The people who play them generally annoy me and I’ve grown to despise those characters. I won’t slug them though unless I have to. But I’ll never give them hatch. And tbh Renatos are getting annoying too.
2 -
Nope, there isn't much hatred directed towards Claudette anymore.
0 -
I have noticed in many games the male characters will be targeted. So if I feel up to practice looping I play as Cage.
0 -
Renato sure is. But would you hit them on hook and go out of your way to make the game miserable for the player?
0 -
Not particularly, though I will say it seems if you play the smaller female ones you are maybe slightly more likely to be let go if you are the last alive.
0 -
Nah lol that’s doing too much. But the amount of hate I get for not giving hatch is absurd. Kinda proves my point at least anecdotally.
0 -
I don't ever expect hatch.
People complain to you - The Killer - that you didn't give them a free escape? That's wild if I'm reading this correctly.
0 -
Most killers will "target" a survivor more for quickswitching or tbagging. Some will do if you use really fancy and bright cosmetics, some will do if you play really bad and they see you as the weak link. And even if you're doing nothing of that you will get tunneled eventually anyway just because the killer found you first. Tunneling is part of the game and can be efficient to do. Just don't make it personal.
At the end survivors (skins) are just objectives for the killers.

Adam, Tap, and Haddie are pretty uncommon. Haddie and Tap I don’t really ever see but Adam players generally seem altruistic and helpful.

No never. My prestige level on the other hand....

Yeah, I feel you on that. Funny thing is, when I was getting my first P100, around the P90 mark, many Killers were very nice and seemed to offer me hatch as well as farming a lot, even if they killed me in the end. But then I hit P100 and the party was over 😒
0 -
Interesting maybe it was me? what was he wearing and what killer was it xD?
0 -
Not really? Though I feel like Michaels tunnel me a lot when I'm playing Laurie, even though canonically she should be the only one left standing. They always get pebbled.

Being a Jeryl(RIP) main brought out the worst possible attention from both Suevivor and Killer lmao. The amount of toxicity and BM was utterly unreal. It was funny having matches devolve into "Protect the Jeryl"
These days I play a bit of Feng, she's definitely a chew toy for the killer. I like playing survivors that killers hate because it makes stealth a bit more viable because you're psychologically influencing the killer.
Feng is one of those survivors that killers will drag matches out and pick survivors up to reveal auras, from my experience.

For me it's not that I hate TTVs although most of them are very obviously not cut out for it when I watch them. When I see a TTV sometimes I prioritize them because I want to give them content cuz I imagine just doing gens isn't the most interesting thing to watch for viewers.
1 -
I always play under the assumption that TTVs are live, and I love to feed the chat with content. I love seeing what people have to say, and I love seeing how my actions affect other people.
Sadly it's always "last stream 2 years ago", never streamed at all or you must pay $$$ to watch.
Offline Twitch streamers are the only TTVs worthy of a tunnel in my opinion. Like, change your name Broski!
0 -
Yes it happens a lot. They say I’m desperate for the 4k and I’m sweaty lol. EGC needs to be deleted tbh. Waaaaay more toxicity than not.

The character? No.
The prestige level? Yup.
