Settle down: the 2 killer's golden rules
Hello dear fellas from the fog, today I am here to settle down and give you main killer brothers some interior peace.
Golden rules for killers:
1- never camp a hooked survivor no matter what, let them run away if you must, they will be more pretty hanging form the next hook.
2- never tunnel a survivor, no matter what you still have 3 more pieces of food to play with.
That's it. There is nothing else!! Spam your ability, build your killer with the most annoying perks if you like. There is no noob because you go spirit (atm), no bad killer because you hit every single hatchet with hunter, respect the 2 rules, always, for the rest of the time be the best butcher you can.

Yeah..no.
If I hook someone and his friends are 3 feet away. I'mma camp. They don't deserve a free unhook for playing bad.
If I chase a Survivor and down him and he has a key & the hatch is visible. I'mma tunnel him so he can't use it to escape/allow others to escape.
You're rules basically say 'Give the Survivors free unhooks/escapes for...reasons'.

Edit: I write this because some times ago I did the mistake myself to interrogate me on the correct behaviour as a killer.... I was wrong any behaviour is right, don't worry and don't stress yourself, you chose to be a killing machine, so be it!

Yeah, just gonna ignore this one...

No, what you do is right in that moment, camping a hook is not downing a survivor 3 metres from hit just waiting to be destroyed.... Camping hook means being stationery so is impossible to unhook.
Tunneling someone with key is not tunneling but making difference between win or lose. In talk in general, only 2 rules to follow with ofc situational exceptions as you said.
Cheers for the answer

Why so? The forum is here to have an exchange of ideas, so please why would you ignore this post? Thanks for the answer

If Survivors swarm around a hook, I will stay there. If the hook is in my patrol path, I'll stay near it. I will never allow a free unhook.
If a Survivor runs right in front of me, I will down them, regardless of when they were hooked. If I feel like tunneling one Survivor, I will. It is simply efficient.

Good sir... Killer main here... Red Ranks... If you LIVE for the 4k... If you "accidentally" tunnel the first survivor and then play as you should you'll practically always get that 4k... I was a "nice" killer who never tunneled, until I got that you need to do it to get higher in red ranks...
I'll tunnel the 1st kill every now and then and then change to a "nice killer" who doesn't camp nor tunnel the other 3... But it's just a strategy taht works really good

Everything you said is fine, you are not focusing on someone on purpose, so I do agree with you, the easy rules I wrote ofc needs to follow the flo of the game. I am the first to kill a survivor no matter how many times he went down if he's just in front of me. But we both don't chose to ignore everyone else and just kill kill kill the guy. So I do agree with you

Unfortunately I am not at you level, not even close. I do read and understand what you said, so at high level tunneling the first one means almost always a total defeat for survivors? Didn't know that and thanks for sharing, I should probably change the title adding: ..... For beginner!
Haha thanks for the answer
Ps: i am not gonna say this but I am curious to try what you said... But I never said that! 🤣

Yes, at red ranks, tunneling is often the best way for a Killer to win.
3 -
Are you serious?
3 -
Yeah, no, I'mma camp and tunnel when I can.
I'm not a Red Rank. Hell, I haven't even gotten past Rank 11 as Killer, but I'm going to be an ass to Survivors because most of the Purple or Red Ranked ones are asses to me.

has to be a survivor main that never played alot of killer that writes those rules :D
1 -
For the most part i avoid tunnelling and camping, but it can't always be help

Nah, just a "nice killer" who gets how to pip up in low ranks (20-10), he'll get that he has to tunnel the 1st one in red ranks to assure the 4k someday
1 -
well yeah in lower ranks you dont have to do it as often, because survivors arent that good at looping etc. but as soon as you go to higher ranks and you do that and give them basicly free escapes, you will just end up getting frustrated and losing alot
1 -
Main killer, i played survivors few times... I just got 80 hours in game. Being a begginer doesn't mean frustrated 😤
0 -
Thanks to all of you, I understand that my post make sense for low level killers, I will probably get used to the way higher level killer must play. Make sense, I already struggle now sometimes to kill them, give them freedom at high level must be defeat for us. Cheers always useful guys!

Let people play the game how they want to.
Everyone can make their own rules.

Killers tunnel because it's a basic principle of predators; always go after the wounded prey first. The unhooked survivor is injured and I already have a general idea of where they are, so why wouldn't I go after them if I'm not already in a chase?
Plus, since the unhooker will probably stay near the unhooked survivor to heal them, I'll have a chance to disrupt multiple survivors at once, and prevent a heal.
So, give me a good reason to stop tunneling, and I'll never tunnel again. Until then, if the situation calls for it, I'm gonna go after the unhooked survivor.

Don't even Camp them when gates are open and everybody else has escaped? Just supposed to walk away and give them a chance, got it.

No. Period.

Killers can do whatever they want to win, survivors can do whatever they can to survive.

...because, to be honest with you, most of these types of posts struggle with being coherent. Let alone worthy of discussion.

here is the only golden rule i follow:
i wont BM you if you wont BM me.
also, if you tryhard and repaired 4 gens in like 3 minutes, i too will try to get my objective dont as fast as possible.

Maybe the way you play (camping and tunnel) is why you don't win and I bet it's annoying boring to verse you.

If 2 people are sprinting around the hook trying to bait me, as a game yesterday happened, I'm going to plop my butt right next to that hook.

Since there doesn't seem any useful discussion happening in here than just arguments.
Also OP, please do not try to dictate the playstyle of people.
