Anyone here watch tru3's impossible streak challenge attempt today?

Will start off by saying im a tru3 fan been watching him since 2016-2017 off and on through the years

His streak ended by a blatant 4-man comp swf who embarrassingly almost lost to his 1 perk 1 add on clown on the new map

They also 100% sniped him lol

They spammed "Ez" and kept asking tru3 to scrim in end game chat

But it makes me wonder if any of these fun silly challenges are actually possible as a popular streamer when a 4 man can just decide to try and end it at any time

And if they fail? oh well they can try again and the other swf is just waiting for the match to be over for their turn at it

Props to otzdarva for sticking to these challenges i don't watch him but they seem to take forever and they must be brutal to get blatantly sniped through the halfway mark of it or near the end

Tru3 said it best recently "There are people who watch me who would love nothing more then to end my streak"

    Haven´t seen it yet.

    I watch a lot of different streamers only on YT. And he always has videos up which is nice. Have no problem with him.

    Otz is indeed very persistent with his challenges. But streamers have the time for these things.

    I hope they do hardcore surv again. I also really liked when these started with Dowsey.

    I guess the bigger you are the more people will try to "ruin" your stuff in some way.

    Tru3 fan here as well, and I kinda agree with him as well when he pointed out in the past that doing killer streaks are pointless, since it only takes one 4 man SWF loaded with syringes, BNPs and OTRs to break your streak. This game is dictated by survivors, so getting a high streak only means you got matched against potato survivors.

    tru3 does usually give a reaction to the snipers and doesn't do anything to make it harder for them to snipe him anymore

    he's probably the most sniped streamer on dbd

    Hm ok. He explains a lot while playing. He only has different opinions sometimes which is fine for me.

    Hens is one of the quickest with new broken stuff at the moment. Has some funny videos. Also as german i cannot overhear his accent :-)

    Somehow i like the grasshopper videos at the moment - stupidly funny - but also very good looper. I still try to learn from all these loopers as i am only pretty medium at looping.

    the whole point of challenge is to get sniped by strongest team and come out on top consistency despite being sniped. Originally, i think goal was to prove whether the killer was too strong but it ends up proving that Soloq on average is severely under-powered vs most killers meaning that all killer in can 50 win-streak if the killer is proficient enough and only faces soloq or weak swf's.

    I think we shouldn't be judging or balancing Killers, perks, Survivor playstyles, or strength of anything based on how well Streamers that are good enough to streak are able to play the game. Those people are outliers.

    Same goes for tierlists - they're stupid, they confuse the average player into thinking some perfectly balanced Killers are "too weak/strong", and they don't judge based on average players at average capability instead judging at peak of perfection against the kind of comp SWFs you rarely ever to never see.

    Based on time zones im either sleeping or working when he streams. So I'm just gonna go ahead and say no.

    To be clear I'm pretty sure the game OP is referring to was a snipe considering the endgame chat + profiles, but most of the time when someone says "in this game tru3 got sniped by a real comp team" it was not in fact a swf comp team snipe.

    And this is why that streak is called impossible, unless you get potatos or quitters (solo queue) you won't be winning with 1 perk clown

  • TwinsMain2004
    TwinsMain2004 Member Posts: 33

    Was that the game where the anon said "Omg tru3 sign my profile"

    I dont know who that guy is but i dont blame tru3 for calling that guy a sniper as thats a pretty toxic thing to do and something that a toxic sniper would 100% say to tru3 IMO

  • jmwjmw27
    jmwjmw27 Member Posts: 500

    Yeah it was that guy. He didn't know that disabling anon mode doesn't instantly make your profile available to view, it was pretty funny when he realized it was seen as toxic

    he is doing that otz challange where you have to win with all killers using random perks and add-on's with perks getting deleted once they have been used. dumb challange

    I'm reasonably sure most of the solos he beats would like nothing more than to beat his streak at that moment, too.

    But it makes me wonder if any of these fun silly challenges are actually possible as a popular streamer when a 4 man can just decide to try and end it at any time

    How big do you want those winstreaks to get, exactly? I'm not sure what your point is here and what the purpose of this thread is. These crippling streaks are a joke. If they can rack up wins like this they shouldn't get matched with most of those players.

    The answer is simple, it's possible because matchmaking is so wait time prioritized that it can take hundreds of matches to actually construct a match that isn't a thermonuclear hyperstomp by the player that plays the game for a living.

    Obviously a challenge streak makes it much harder to beat a few of those highlight matches before finally losing, but even if you look at several 100s/1000+ streaks with less restrictions it's usually a highlight reel of <10-20 games that are remotely competitive ones, and even fewer of those that really make them "sweat" to the end. Personally I think that's crazy but hey, the people have spoken and the matchmaking system believes if someone has to wait longer than 1 minute they'll log off and play Minecraft instead, so here we are.

    He is one of the most stream sniped and harassed streamers out there and regardless my opinions of they guy, I do no think he should ever have to tolerate the garbage thrown at him over the years. It makes it impossible to do streaks etc as he almost certainly will get sniped, hell even friends I know who have done their own streaks get sniped by acquaintances just because they can.

    I hate win streaks anyway, I don't think they are healthy for the game

    (mods, please ask me to edit this if I cant say this, I have tried to word it in a way that isn't insulting or rude etc).

    Lots of streamers get sniped. He may get sniped more, but he chose to isolate himself from most of the community and be generally pretty negative about the game. That sort of content creator is just easy amusement for trolls and petty nerds, especially when said content creator isn't nearly as good as they think they are (not saying he's bad, but he isn't excellent).

    It just sounds like he got beaten within the parameters of the game and his own challenge with the hardest kind of opponent he could get. He also chose to stream and expose himself to risks without precautions. This is all on him and to be expected.

    Momo also casually had a >600 streak on Oni. It's amusing to me all 3 of these streaks were lost within 7 days.

    Future dbd will be balanced around killer streaks if not already.

    Thing is that those people are actually as good as they think they are.

    Tru3 both understands the game and is a good player. It's just that the playerbase doesn't understand the concept of ad populum, nor do they think critically about most things. I know he plays most killers in a similar way, with the same/similar build, but that's kind of what you do if you want to win. You're not playing any killer in a vastly different way than all the others. It's the same fundamentals.

    Otz and Hens clearly have the play time and game knowledge to know what they're talking about, probably more than Tru3 even, and yet they'll say the exact opposite of what you expect. I always called Otz's tier lists bad (which I say about 99% of tier lists), in part because he placed Hag so high. This last tier list of his is the most spot-on it's ever been, in part because he admits Hag has fallen off, which I realized about 2-3 years ahead of him. I don't really watch Hens, except in his collabs with Otz, but his commentary over that Skull Merchant match vs the "best survivor team in world!" has got to be the most misleading, confirmation bias piece of content that's ever been released about this game, and I'll leave it at that.

    I usually don't tune in to win streaks. Like he says, I think they're stupid and don't prove anything. 1 good team will just take away your streak. You could theoretically be unable to get a 1-win streak, as long as the game kept feeding you strong teams. That's possible because of the game's survivor sidedness.

  • danielmaster87

    He could go for less unnecessary flick shots as Deathslinger, and thus miss less shots. But other than that he's solid on basically every killer, especially Pinhead.

    A perkless Trapper can destroy a comp 4-man SWF team

    If you lose, its a skill issue

    Don't watch Tru - but I think KL recently did it, don't know how long it took him but it was first try. - Though iirc he did dodge lobbies (or at least one) when the name or profile basically admitted to being a cheater or sniper — which I think is fair, considering it's on stream.
