Do you forget that lockers exist?

I'm trying to think of the last time I used one.

    I use lockers quite a bit tbh. It just works with my build though.

    I do use them at the beginning of a match to get the Killer’s attention.

    Being a Myers main I come across many people using lockers to prevent being mori. Weirdly even the last survivor usually jumps in a locker even tho I can grab them, put them down and mori them anyway

    Id sometimes reveal my aura with OoO walking one way then Fixate somewhere else and Quick and Quiet into a locker

    After OoO was reworked the timer used to reset when you'd jump into a locker

    I will use them to dodge aura-reads if I can guess the killer is using them. But I never use them to hide from the killer since it feels like if they're approaching my area they already know I'm there so hiding in lockers just sabotages myself, they'll find me anyway. Especially since they can hear the lockers opening and closing even when you do it slowly, wish we had a perk that made them completely silent.

    To dodge a Blight rush or locker tech Leatherface.

    yes, pretty often for:

    1. forcing DS;
    2. forcing Oni out of power;
    3. removing Artist crows;
    4. denying BBQ aura
    5. countering many other powers

    Red herring, blast mine, mirrored illusion, lucky star. Great way to troll a killer without pissing them right the hell off.

    I had a match where 2 survivors were always jumping in lockers to deny me Surge value.

    Michael, the artist and other Surge-using killer ...... haven't confronted you lately? Have you not played Survivor in the first place?

    no idea why that got down voted, it’s perfectly reasonable to do just that in both instances.

    Lockers are great for dodging Doctor's and Artist's powers.

    Until they start running Iron Maiden, of course.

    I use built to last quite a bit so no, also if it's blight or billy I just assume they have BBQ.

    I <3 Lucky Star, so I'm pretty much always getting in and out of lockers. I've been known to enjoy a good locker Dwight build every now and then too.

    And If I had a penny for how often I find some poor clueless soul trying to hide from my Legion's Killer Instinct inside a locker, I think I'd be able to buy myself at least one legendary cosmetic by now.

    I dont use lockers too much until there is a locker right by a Window Vault or Pallet, in which case 95% of the time I hop into the Locker instead of getting the Window or Pallet prompt.

    I mean 99% of the time lockers favour's killers ping so even if the entire animation is complete on the survivour side it only matters what the killer see so u get picked up almost every time lockers were a lot better a year ago this wasn't such an issue
