My favorite Killer moment is when Surv mains aren't bastards.

RANT START
I used to believe they were.

But then three of them ganged up on this one salty boi in the post-game chat and I felt SO TOUCHED. It would've brought tears to me eyes, but I was playing Nurse and the pillowcase kept tears from coming out.

That was when I realized: The best moments for a me as a Killer aren't the dope hatch escape catches. They're not tunneling and face camping that one teabagging P3 flashlight Claudette . They're not landing sick gamesense strats with stuff like Hag traps and Nurse blinks. It's when the Survivors are respectful, sportsmanlike, and sociable. Why?

Simple: We don't expect them to be. And when those expectations are shattered, it's such a lovely feeling.

Many Killers have come to think of it as a necessary evil: Surv mains will be salty and will have to deal with their saltiness. But just because an evil is necessary doesn't mean we have to like it. It dampens moods when the local Myers main thinks about all the sabo Jakes who call Tombstone OPAF, or when Megs teabag circles around the Nurse every time she misses a blink. But Killers can't stop it, so they suck it up and just move to turn off the chat.

Then a message pops up. The David on the team goes "gg" before the chat can be closed. Curiosity peaked, a Killer decides to sit there and see if anyone else types it. Another "gg" and then another. Then someone goes "Good Hillbilly. Try using Chainsaw for sprinting more tho. Helps stop gen rushing."

THAT moment right there. When you think you're gonna get ripped into and you get praise instead? That's a great moment. Bracing for the worst and getting the best instead is always a sweet feeling. And it doesn't have to end there. You might stay around and chat or maybe a fourth Surv will get all toxic, and the others will actually defend you. These moments can range from "Oh hey, everything went better than expected" to "Omigosh my heart is warm now" but they're always nice.

And as someone who plays Survivor roughly equally as Killer, I like it even more. See, Killers play Killer so they can win, but I've always felt that Killers themselves are not designed so that the one playing them can win, but rather so that the people playing AGAINST them can lose. They exist to inflict pain on and fluster Survivors, which will make losing as a Surv always feel bad. So ditching that salt for sportsmanship in the post-game? That takes just a teensy tiny bit of integrity. And I respect that.
RANT END

I'd like to spread the positivity moments like these bring to me. So I implore you: If you have ever played Killer and had a noteworthy or otherwise shareable "Survivor mains aren't bastards" moment, share it. Spread the love. We need it, for sure.
