How do you play Survivor?

If you are one of the stealthy ones, i hope you are still doing your best to help your team by doing gens when the killer is on someone else for example. There are some good stealthy players without a doubt, but my experience with most of them have been awful if i'm being honest <.<

    I’m usually stealthy early game while I cleanse totems, after that I’m mixed.

    You'll never learn the game if you play stealth, plus is boring for me and the killer.

    Sometimes I like to loop the killer to hell, sometimes I like to hide and out smart the killer.

    I try to stay stealthy since I'm bad at looping, but I at least work on gens if I know the Killer is occupied elsewhere. I usually get downed because I'm TOO brave, trying to work on gens or get totems done when I know the Killer's nearby.

    Stealthy/Immersed

    I'm not good at chases, so I try to avoid them by playing stealthily. I find it really fun, and I love the adrenaline rush and sense of achievement when the killer gets that close and you manage to evade them. Or breaking line of sight and losing them during a chase. Love my Iron Will and Urban.

    However, and I wish it went without saying, but I definitely only stealth around like this when the killer is nearby. If they're far away or in a chase, naturally I'd be working on generators or totems. Stealth is only fun when there's something at stake.

    I only get aggressive if I'm playing with a friend who's on death hook, and I've decided to make it my personal mission to get them out alive or die trying.

    A bit of both. I'm not necessarily great at chases, but as a primarily killer player I understand how to outplay most killers (still working on countering spirit). However, I am great at stealth and there are times where I barely escape detection because of maneuvering (even without urban evasion).

    I’m neither a great looper nor a risk-taker, so I prefer to play more stealthy throughout most of a given match, but I will loop to the best of my ability if I am found by the Killer.

    I'm more on the stealthy side, and often I'm the last one to be hooked, but I have no problem acting brave when the situation calls for it.

    Both.

    I am not that good in chases, not the worst, but others can make more out of the Pallets. So I like to avoid Chases as much as possible, but I am not that guy that will stay immersed all the time, so if the Killer sees me, he sees me, but I will not urban evade around the Map, hoping that nobody sees me.

    I’ll play Stealthy when on my own, and loop the killer where necessary, though when in SWF, I would usually spend more time in chases to buy the rest more time on gens since they don’t have the ability to do the same but with the roles reversed usually. Then again I do play this game considerably more often than them, so it’s something I’ve just kinda got used to over time.

    depends on the situation.

    I just do gens until the killer finds me or somebody dead on hook needs my help to protect him
