I have a confession to make...
I suck against trapper in solo queue. I am very good at the game but I am always scared to loop a trapper because of his traps. I know for sure my team will not be disarming his traps so when I get into a chase I usually panic a bunch and end up leaving every tile with a hiding spot for a trap. Most of the time I look around and try to find where he places his traps instead of doing gens.
Does anyone else feel the same?

Pretty much everyone feels that way i suppose.
Trapper isn't strong at all but you just never know where he set his traps up.And just when you expect it the least you walk right into one.
Hate playing against him >:(

I mostly just hate the kind of Trapper that uses Agitation. All the rest are kind of sad because if there's long grass at a tile you just drop the pallet instantly and there's nothing they can do.

I'm a trap magnet! The Trapper can place one single trap on a map and I guarantee that I will find it with my feetsies, it happens all the time!

I'm just not very good at Survivor period. I will step into many traps, and I will get caught because I am playing around a nonexistent trap.

As Trapper main, I will give you "advice"
If Trapper suddenly stop chasing, you're head toward a trap. I love to nod/shake head when they're about to run into a trap.

Well as you said small game is situational, while decisive strike is one use. However, decisive is useful in almost every situation and can be used even at end game. Small game is useful for two things: traps and totems. Traps depend on the killer and totems also depend on the killer, since totems are useless if the killer doesn’t use a hex perk. If you really want to find totems just use detective’s hunch or a map both of which can be more useful and versatile. The point is, it’s unpopular and a waste because there are better alternatives.

I’m not going to argue over personal experience along with varying information in each screenshot. This evidence doesn’t account for killer types, play styles, player skill, overall teamwork, maps, stuff both sides brought, and how each variable would interact with each other. I’m not saying your experience is invalid, it is just unreliable with no control comparison nor representative of the many probable times small game didn’t help you. You showed 6 of likely the hundreds of games you’be played. Assuming that you don’t escape and get the highest blood points on every match (or a majority). Thanks for you input though! It was very informative! :)

Trap magnet reporting for duty.
Both Hag and Trapper traps.
They never fail to jumpscare the hell out of me.

I swear there was one game where I must have stepped on six of them. Even the survivors and killer messaged me saying if I was okay. 😂

That sounds like a regular Trapper match for me 🤣

I'm less of a trap magnet but have to take an eternity freeing myself from a trap. I counted 24 attempts in my most recent match.

Dang. And here I thought I was unlucky...
My record is about 15 attempts.

Love trapper! So unpredictable, ya just never know. Love playing him, love playing against him.
Side note: Am I the only one that got Foo Fighters - “Best of You” in my head from reading the OP’s thread title?

I have some of my worst matches against Ghostface. I always think he’s lurking around somewhere and I get nervous to look any direction cause I think he’ll spot me, and I get paranoid that he’s going to sneak up on me when I’m doing a gen.
Sounds silly, but it’s true.
Ghostface represses my gameplay😔

Damn those are some pretty old screenshots. Even got some from last year's Halloween event lmao.
Oh yeah, that was when Billy was fine....and fun...and BHVR had a decent event. :(

Well, you've got four perk slots, not just one. Picking perks that are "always useful" is good because you're slurping "value" out of them, but if you know for a fact that if you happen to face someone with traps you're going to have a very bad time, I think running a perk like small game would be a safe fourth pick. Perks shouldn't simply be valuable based on your ability to use them every match, they should also account for your personal shortcomings. With how popular Ruin/Undying is, small game is an especially safe bet.

These two describe me perfectly.
Generally, I'm scared to walk around, especially if the Trapper seems to have no order of how they place the traps... Same happens to me if it GF, I get paranoid when I know it's a Ghost Face and idk where he is. I keep looking around frantically everywhere.
Also if I get stuck in a trap, either I'm able to get out immediately or I get stuck forever. Most of the time it's the latter.

I don't mean to rain on your parade, but your own experience, without any other input, is incredibly unreliable due to the nature of this game. There are so many different variables and they all act in a different way when combined with one another, so your experience from Screenshots alone isn't the best source; the only real way to compare these perks is to have matches be ceteris parabus and only compare the two perks whilst everything else is identical but that's impossible in dbd.

I'm a wreck when I play against trapper.

I remember a game where I ran through a trap only to get hit by it when I went to loop that area, because I thought it was safe. It impressed me that I managed to dodge it the first time.

Yeah he gives me anxiety, tbh.

I am the same way. I basically start abandoning everything I know when I'm playing against Trapper.

lmao, I am so lost on what to do if he catches me while I am trying to find his traps. Its funny because I am very good otherwise.
