You're Mad At Decisive For The Wrong Reason

Why does it need to be a 100% anti tunnel perk and absolutely nothing else? If it helps in those rare occasions where you don't get tunneled by the killer, so be it. The killer at that points is having a lot of map pressure anyways already. And there is always the counterplay of just slugging the survivor longer.

It's more than that, it's easily abusable especially at the end of the game, it becomes a free body block and there's nothing you can do about it at that point. First game I ran the meta build I abused it and it required nearly no effort on my part. If I didn't have it a dude who was a pancake would've died, killer had him dead to rights, everyone was injured and I body blocked the F out of him and there was nothing he could do at that point when he should've had a final hook.

Couldnt agree with OP more. Nothing else to say.

I've only been hit with Decisive Strike a handful of times, I don't see it often and I'll unashamedly tunnel people. I didn't even know what it was until this thread.

Why not 115 %? 110 % isn't that good

I'm always happy to eat a DS before end game if somebody wants to give it to me. They see it as bait but I see it as a freebie.

If you get DS'd 3 times in one game, you're either playing killer very unoptimally or you're tunneling, period. But once again, just slug.

DS can't trigger after the 3rd hook because you are dead.

I tunneled them. https://clips.twitch.tv/MushyColdbloodedPidgeonSoonerLater

Sorry, but according to @Corrupted, "If you get DS'd 3 times in one game, you're either playing killer very unoptimally or you're tunneling."

Since you only ate 2 DS in less than a minute, you are clearly not tunneling!

Nice try!

That's the one thing I hate about decisive strike you could literally not tunnel down and hook other people and as long as that timer is still up you're going to get punished.

Worst case scenario this even means that survivors can do things like generators and hex totems with the full knowledge that even if they mess up doing something stupid they're still going to get bailed out

The bill had DS which is why I didn't pick him up D:

Slugging them is enough of an answer. I consistantly play at red ranks and I hardly ever get hit by it, my screenshots are proof of it. 3 or more people run DS but I'm 3 and 4K'ing with near perfect games never getting hit by it. Don't just take it from me, I watch red rank streamers like Truetalent, Scott, Umbra, etc and they are hardly hit by DS and if they are it's once rarely twice. Even when they are, It's mostly not gamechanging. It's not worth nerfing or complaining about.

If you aren't getting hit with DS 3 times a game or often in games in general then what on earth is the point of whining? How is slugging not a viable option? Most survivors that have DS won't make it to a locker in time especially if they're playing reckless. 60 seconds isn't too long, you can not crawl across the map in 60 seconds lmao. There's plenty of times I've slugged someone with DS and been slugged with DS and the timer in endgame and the timer went out. As a rank 1 survivor I got paired with a rank 9 killer the other day and other green ranks but he knew to slug me. He waited the timer out and 3K'd. A friggin rank 9 Wraith knows this.

So, Unbreakable, Flip Flop and DS. They're running 3 or 2 of the perks for an antislug build. Unbreakable and Flip flop are hardly used at higher tiers, they are by no means meta and if someone uses them then the person is lacking a lot of essentials in their build for an antislug build that will probably work once out of 12 games??? What are even the odds of someone using two or three of those perks?? Honestly I shouldn't be reading most of these posts in their entirety because it's filled with nonsense. "You can crawl across the map in 60 seconds." LOL. Your numbers are cute, but in most games DS won't be the endall be all unless they are by a gate so your numbers are honestly irrelevant. At this point you want it to be absolutely useless. DS is likely to never be changed again and it's here to stay, so get over it and slug. And that's the bottom line.

The actual bottom line is that you're refuting the anecdotal evidence of other posters with your own anecdotal evidence, which makes for a delightful read :3

Congrats on the near perfect games at Red Ranks :)

DS went from being an “anti-tunneling” perk to a “slug me” perk lol

Go watch red rank killers play and tell me how often DS is used on the regular and if it wins the survivors the game. You cannot crawl across a map in 60 seconds. Unbreakable and Flip flop are niche' and gimmick builds at best and unbreakable is a one time use. I just want people to be practical is all I'm saying, don't take it personal.

I apologize if it came across a certain way, it's just a lot of killer mains put a lot of nonsense out there and whine about things that aren't very problematic. But see True is just respecting the perk, he leaves/slugs them which is basically what I was saying which is ironic you'd point that out. You don't have to prioritize or eat a DS to win. And he doesn't go "DS is too strong. This is insane" etc. Now it's a good perk but this thread is blowing it way out of proportion.
