    How often do you encounter this, bwehonest.

    My point is I always prepare for the worst (insta meds, full blown gen rush toolbox) and then some poor soul has brown medkit or toolbox without anything and its a weird feeling.

    Be honest* (damn forum won't let me edit my comments)

    I mean, it still stands. Something can't be both "always" and "sometimes." When I bring in a med-kit, most of the time it's to heal myself once.

    All medkits being needle is very rare, they are Styptic more often.

    I agree with this, hence only time I use items as a survivor is when I'm playing vs MLGA blocked killer.

    Survivors can't tell killers are bringing add-ons nor do they know someone they're facing may or may not be toxic, so it really isn't an apples to apples sort of issue. Most of survivor's "strongest #########" can be made completely moot, too.

    @fluffymareep

    To be honest, Survivors can only react to past matches and Killers can act for the current match (even though, if Killers they that they need to see the Items to prepare, this only means that they dodge instead of using Stronger Add-Ons or bring Franklins..).

    Like, I had 4 matches yesterday, right after Rank Reset vs Tryhards. 5 Blink Ebony Mori Nurse, Iridescent Huntress, tunneling Freddy (got farmed as well..) and another Killer with an Ebony. So I brought Insta Heals and for the next 5 games, I had only nice Killers and felt bad.

    So yeah, as Survivor you can just react and have the mindset of not letting the next game end like the previous ones.

    Next round, "only" 2 instas out of 3 med kits, but full blown key just for good measure, gotta keep fighting fire with fire.

    Everyone can play how ever they like, but I dont think taking revenge on others is good for anyone. Just MLGA block them and move on.

    @Aven_Fallen I dunno how people can wait so long for lobbies and still pick and choose who they want to face and who they don't. It has taken me so long (during busy hours, too). I've gotten to the point where I'm only vaguely paying attention to what kind of survivors I'm facing. I kinda wish they had tiered lobbies (yellow+brown, green, purple+pink, if that makes sense), but I doubt they ever will 'cause that'll water down the pool. If they had that, though, you'll know you're facing someone on your level and know that someone isn't punching down.

    I had a 5 blink Nurse before rank reset (around rank 4), but people I've faced so far have been mostly lovely. I think coming across such sweaty individuals is just a testament to luck and not much more, though. The next game may not be as bad, though. Not everyone is like that.

    I try not to take out my bad games on the next, personally. It isn't their fault someone else did something. I think usually I take a break if I have consistent bad games.

    Yeah, it's rough out there. Even on a fresh account with a level 20 killer I get put against 2 instaheals every four games or so. Not to mention the gen rushing, 4 adrenaline, balanced landing, self-care, spine chill team, but I'll save the salt for that one ;p

    Well, same goes for survivors. They could prepare for you, running good addons.
