    And while crude, the point was: why play like an ass from the start just to win because you play a killer you dont think can win without doing so, when you can just go and have fun with the killer instead and see where it gets you? If you want to win so badly, why play a killer you dont think can win unless you tunnel at 5 gens?

    Also, what I said was to make DS basekit and make tweaks that effectively buff it. Everything I mentioned would be made basekit. But maybe you read over that bit. My stance in general nowadays is to make DS basekit and rework the perk. It should have been made basekit when BT was made basekit. Then some killers would have been forced into a buff or rework (especially our homeboy Trapper) and the game overall would have been in a healthier state. instead of the mess it is now.

    Did you mean to reply to someone else? Because this rage-out doesn't really respond to anything I wrote.

    No????

    Trying to hook like you've described is not optimal at all. You do not have time as killer to get your first elimination at 8 hook stages, that's ridiculous. Survivors on comms does not change the fact that getting to the 3v1 asap is most optimal. The fact that hooking 1-2-1-3-1-2-3-1 is not seen in any DBD tournament or competitive event supports this, but it's also obvious if you just think about it.

    Why is tunneling necessarily playing like an ass? The killer's job is to kill you. Are survivors ######### for playing as optimally as possible too?

    I don't understand your point of view that if someone wants to win, they should be picking the strongest stuff, but also if a killer tunnels, they are being an ass.

    Also the conversation we had when you replied to me wasn't about your suggestion to make DS basekit and subsequent killer buffs. It was a side conversation that started when jesterkind asked me why a weak killer would care if 4 survivors ran DS, which is how we came to the topic of "weak killers cannot afford to not tunnel in the current state of the game". I actually wouldn't mind making it basekit if it means weaker killers like trapper got buffed across the board.
