as a killer player for a long time I didn’t see a problem with sprint burst whatsoever.
Main complain or annoyence people have with it is the 99% exhaustion and then doing the last second Sprint Burst when killer tries to hit. Like some people just can't handle that and think its so op. The nerf is not going to even change it survivor just gets little less distance.
Sprint Burst is getting nerfed? This is news to me. What are they changing?
Duration from 3 seconds to 2 seconds.
I never thought I'd see them nerf SB tbh. Kind of crazy.
Any survivors mains out there able to give a frame of reference for how much distance is lost in that 1 sec being removed? Feels like a bit too much of a nerf but even though I use SB somewhat frequently I have no idea how hard this will hit it.
I'm not a survivor main, but it's only one second lost at 50% haste, so it's 6 meters of travel distance lost per instance of Sprint Burst.
Thanks for the info. Seems like it will still be decent for pre-running or 99ing in chase but not soul crushing for non-mobility / m1 killers as it currently can be.
It's not bad, and while I as a Killer main hate SB, I do wish it had come with some more equal-handed nerfing and rebalancing. Lithe will just replace it easily enough. SB is still entirely tenable on pre-runs and break-aways, I agree.
SB has been outrunning nerfs alongside Blight for years, this has been a long time coming.
Minor nerf tbh, I'd go further.
