I was playing SWF against a Michael. He signaled that he wanted to farm. My teammates and I agreed that we wouldn't farm and just play the game normal, not giving him free stalk. Turns out we were right, he had both pinks add-ons and probably thought that would be a good way to get his stalking bar filled.

The killer made me bleed out all because they couldn't get their 4th BBQ stack. In other words, the killer decided to punish me because one of the other survivors denied them a BBQ stack. I was playing solo btw.

A killer was slugging to prevent hatch (which is fine), but that wasn't enough for them. They came and picked me up to let me wiggle before I bled out, nodded at me as if they were trying to make me rat out the other survivor or something (they were right in hiding, killer was just hovering over me on the ground). I went back on a gen and they went searching, eventually slugged them as well and did the exact same thing, hovering over them expecting me to just feed myself to them.
After they bled out and I got hatch they called us both pussies and called me an idiot for not sandbagging the "antimate". I'm suuuuure you just wanted to punish them, totally 😄

I haven't really had any horrific experience with a killer when I've played survivor, all though I have been doing something horrific when playing killer.
I had some really bad matches with Doctor, Wraith & Trapper going against SWFs in red ranks with flashlights and instaheals, I had maybe like, 5 matches in a row with these type of people and of course I got bullied.
Annoyed that the game isn't balanced for killers, I decided to be one with the toxicity instead and swapped to Clown, with extra bottles and insta down addon, ebony mori & the perks: bbq, ruin, deerstalker, sloppy butcherer
After I had hooked every survivor once, my evil plan was about to unfold for these poor survivors. When the last hooked survivor was rescued, I slugged every single survivor and proceeded to do the Clown Mori animation spam, where you stomp on the survivors head, until they had 1% left of bleeding out, then I morid them. I did this to every single survivor.
It was also before Endgame collapse so they couldnt escape.
Needless to say, they were very angry in the chat after the match.

Once a Doc downed me when I was the last one alive. While carrying, he hit a generator, then dropped me. I assumed he wants to let me farm, so when I was on my feet started working on it. Then he downed me instantly and hooked.
After game, he told me all the nearby hooks were used up around the spot he first picked me up, he saw he could not make it, so he pretended he wanted to let me finish the last gen.
Very nice move, I laughed so hard when he explained it. Well played. Scummy, sure, but hey, we're enemies. Anything goes.

Not on me, but I stay on the Hatch cloaked as Wraith, waiting for the Survivor to get close, then shut it right in front of them.
The purpose is to find them and have 0 exits available, but from their perspective, it probably looks pretty scummy.

If that is the worst thing a killer has ever done to you then you have lived a charmed life. The killer probably wasn't even trying to "punish" you. The killer was probably using your bleedout timer to find the last survivor. I've done this many times myself. Don't take it personally. That's just a strategic move.

That's pretty clever actually.

Scummiest tactic is hook camping or basement stair camping, especially with leatherface swinging his one-hit wonder around. Proximity to hooked survivors needs to have a heavier negative multiplier than it does.

Im gonna admit this one, I play insidious Legion. Standing on hatch as insidious legion in the game map makes it impossible to win the gam, since you can only tell where the hatch is by walking into view of the killer.

Pretend to farm after two ppl d'cd so he can have us both easily, then killed us. I could have ds'd him but didn't.

They can just do gens. Plus you can find the hatch without being in view of the killer just by using 3rd person camera

@ClogWench There was an alcove I could sit in and hear them before they could see me, and there was 3 gens.

Still not impossible

Had a game where I was playing solo survivor with a 3 man SWF. It was pretty obvious they were SWF from their names but I also checked one of the guys profile and they were on his friends list. One of the SWF got downed and DC'd, then his two mates DC'd as well, which left me to be alone with Billy. I decided to just let him kill me, so I spammed fast vault at a window until he came and downed me. He just nodded at me and ran around me, wasting his and my time. I was getting annoyed but didn't wanna DC. He then proceeded to slug me until I had like 10% bleedout bar left.
He then picked me up and I decided not to wiggle since I just wanted to die and get it over with. He hears hatch and drops me close to it, wanting me to crawl to it. He signals me to go get it and I knew from the way that he just slugged me for over 2 minutes that he'll just close it in my face. I crawl to the hatch and yeah, he did close it.
BUT!!! What he didn't know was that I had a purple key + Adrenaline, so I got up and opened the hatch and escaped.
In end game chat I asked why he was being a dick to me when I had nothing to do with the 3 DCs. He then proceeded to complain about SWF, genrush, crutches and purple keys. How every survivor is an entitled brat and deserves to be punished.
Well, I'm sorry Mr. Ruin, BBQ, Enduring and Bamboozle Billy with almost instasaw on Rotten Fields

That would probably be this time a Legion and a Claudette worked together to bleed everyone out.
The Legion just used her as a Killer Instinct spammer to find and slug everyone else. It took a while, but after slugging everyone they waited for the bleedout timers to expire. The other 2 Survivors DC'ed, but I just read a book and waited until I bled out to leave the game.
Afterwards I got racist and sexist slurs messaged to me by both the Legion and Claudette for not DC'ing and wasting their time.

I love that they blamed you for wasting THEIR time. Truly icing on the cake.

When someone slugs you on the ground till you bleed out so you die in a slow and drawn out way yet then complains that you should have disconnected because you're wasting their time.
The amount of mental gymnastics you would have to do to come up with that conclusion.

I had a Freddy put me in a corner to let me bleed out as the last survivor alive.
Granted I was playing a Saboteur build, so I made them pretty salty.
1 -
Ahh purging the legacy of Sabo Jake one slug at the time.
Not going to lie letting someone bleed out can be pretty toxic but considering you were saboing their hooks, I think it's a fair trade-off

Worst thing I've faced was a 3 gen doctor on the bottom floor of the game with Overcharge and Overwhelming/Unnerving Presence(small skill checks). Wouldn't hook anyone, would just go between 3 extremely close gens to stop us repairing them. I was relatively new too so the skill checks were obscenely hard to handle.
He ended up inviting us to a voice chat where be talked about how good of a killer he was and how he usually played survivor and just wanted to show how easy killer was. Obviously it wasn't a particularly uncommon strategy but consider we were all rank 18-20 and this guy had clearly invested a lot in Doc (P2 and had Ruin and Lullaby 3 on him too) so it seemed likely be deranked to face us.

Eh, I just wanted to try new sets. The current meta is incredibly stale.

Had a Wraith spam his bell while face camping me because i 360d him a couple times (and maybe because i tried to cj tech...)
Another time a Joey slugged me for the end game collapse kill, because i tried to save my teammate. FeelsBad

I got mori spammed for like 10 minutes by a spirit. I didn't even do anything the whole match that was toxic except doing gens and hit her with a few pallets. I was rancor

I got face camped for destroying a Billy's 2 hex totems in the first 2 minutes of the match

Another survivor in a match motions for me to follow him to an area of the map where the killer, an insidious Hillbilly, is there waiting out of view. He chainsaws me soon as I see him and ignores the other survivor . Turns out they are on each others friend's list.

You earned that face camp as far as I'm concerned.

I think the most toxic thing a Killer has ever done to my team was the following. They were playing Doctor on Haddonfield we has just finished our first generator when the first person went down and was hooked. I quickly ran over to get them off the hook but the Doctor was just staring at them in treatment mode. I ran up to the hook to try and bait a hit since I was running Borrowed Time and he just walked up to me in treatment mode. Did not try to switch to punishment mode, simply waited until I grabbed the person off the hook. Well I tried and this was how I found out you can pull people off of things in treatment mode. Well my teammates go and get the other person off the hook and then try the same thing with me. Know and behold the Doctor just sits and waits staring at me. The second someone tries to pull me off of hook he grabs them and carries them to the next hook. This went on for about 8 minutes before the last generator was popped.
Moral of the story? It really sucks when a killer can GUARANTEE one person will be hooked no matter what happens.
