    I put a small dot sticker on the middle of my screen where my cursor spawns when loading into the game so I always have perfect aim.

    Lol I'm just kidding. A good trick is to throw a few knifes before moonwalking to the pallet at jungle gym loops. I get 80% of survivors with this trick.

    Running his caged heart shoes is the best for chases. And if you are worried about reload don't bother with iron maiden use the green flash drive addon. Murderous melody I think is it's name. It's good and a will save you time and you won't waste a valuable perk slot which can feel really crummy on maps with poor locker spawns.

    Trickster thrives off the open area but some people are still able to dodge his blades very well. My trick is to not follow their back and forth pattern but continue aiming straight as they normally run right into the blades. If they just continue to one side then I change direction.

    HAHA I literally placed a tape on my screen just for him and left it there, but thank you for the tips!

    With how perk-reliant and addon-reliant Trapper is you did very well with only tier-1 Brutal Strength, well done. And yeah playing the 1 in a 4v1 is gonna be intimidating for anyone, just gotta keep at it and the nerves eventually go. Mostly.

    Thank youu! basically what happened was they were all gathered together at one spot trying to block one hook from me when I tried to hook Leon, and everything went down for them despite all gens done! I only got one person in my trap and the rest was just them not knowing how to loop tiles. I'll try my best to practice killer!

    For me, the important thing was remembering that, as killer, you literally can't do anything that causes yourself to die or become otherwise unable to play the game.

    You can play against survivors with a combined 32k hours and they still can't kill you in the game.

    So, just don't worry about the results. If matchmaking puts you up against others who just started the game, enjoy it and maybe try some silly things to see if they work. If matchmaking puts you up against god survivors, then do the same thing. Spend the entire match chasing the clicky Nea who is obviously the best. Matchmaking will make your next match easier AND you'll get the experience of chasing a good survivor so you can catch her in the future. The worst thing survivors can do is say "gg ez" and maybe crouch at the gate, but it's a video game and who cares?

    Also, if you're a person who responds to toxicity, make sure to pay extra attention to all of the wholesome survivors. Our brains have a way of concentrating primarily on negative things (threats) rather than positive things. You'll generally find most survivors are pretty wholesome and will recognize a killer who is learning and getting used to the game.

    Just while you're starting out, I'd also avoid NOED and camping/tunneling. These are absolutely essential parts of the game and things you'll want to understand and use, but they're kind of newbie traps. Because they're so effective especially at lower levels, you'll rise more quickly to levels where you might spend the entire map frustrated that you can't catch anyone. Since you're challenging yourself more, you'll potentially lose games where you could have one if you had been more ruthless. I'd recommend just keeping things casual when starting out and not worrying about the result.

    This is rlly useful, thank u! I'm just not too sure why I'm intimidated by the role other than the fact that I'd get tea-bagged or get blinded by flashlights but I'll try my best to treat it as just something fun :D

  • @EvilSerje said:

    Man, you playing unpunishable role, where you can hurt people, but people can't hurt you. How POSSBILY can you be scared? Scared of what, Entity?

    The main "assymetry" or this game is that killer can win (kill) or break even (not kill, like at the start of the trial). Survivor on the other hand can lose (die) or break even (escape = save his life, like at the start of the trial).

    Or you scared of yourself and bloodlust you gain by bringing pain and killing people? That one you should embrace, my good sir!

    But if you are truly a survivor main, the pain, frustration and suffering you can endure is immeasurable. I don't know what possibly you could fear :)

    I just simply fear on the fact that I'm facing against 4 people and I don't get to have a break </3 killers have to be on a constant chase and lookout while the other survivors who are not getting chased can just relax and do a gen until they get chased. It just intimidates me that I can chase one survivor for such a long time and might not even get a hit on them </3

    Holy crap, this person @Wampirita absolutely NAILED IT. WORD FOR WORD.

    I am a survivor main and do not find playing killer that much satisfying- even if I win. The only time I truly enjoy playing killer, is if I 4K with a meme build (I don’t intentionally camp or tunnel, so that’s very hard to do consistently). Yesterday I was playing killer to get challenges done, and the first thing I said to myself at the beginning of the second game was: “I don’t know how ppl enjoy/have fun maining killer- this ######### is too stressful.” And sure enough my second game was much tougher than the previous (really seems like that’s intentional sometimes). I still 4ke’d, but it was a PIA and I didn’t enjoy myself.

    Three years in and I still get anxiety @svtore. Even the occasional heart pound trying to down that one survivor who looped me for days and the 2nd to last gen is about to pop somewhere.

    Yeah!! The reason why I stress whenever I try to play killer is because you're never ever on a break. survivors get to at least do a gen without any skills and relax while being a killer you have to be on chase constantly, looking out for gens constantly, there's literally no breaks and that's why it stresses me 😭


    But I'm trying my best to not think about winning and at least trick my mind into thinking that playing killer is fun! It is a game after all :D

  • thank you all for the help I appreciate it! <3 I'll do my best to practice killer and hone my skills instead of caring about winning :D

  • @Wampirita said:

    you don't, really.

    It only gets worse the better you become, and start facing survivors that will absolutely obliterate you and will make sure to send you an entire list on how to off yourself.

    There will be times where you'll have games that won't leave you anxious, but you'll be put back to your place like next match.

    You could always learn top tier killers that will give you a win most of the times, but then you won't have much satisfaction from game.

    My personal solution is to not play many matches at once, play one, take a break for like an episode of your favorite show, play another. Value your mental health :D

    Yeah, the match I faced as trapper I had a Leon who kept on tea-bagging me and it kind of hurt but I paid no mind to it and ignored him, I was quite proud that I managed to have a 4k despite all gens done!

    Thank you!!

    Just keep at it, honestly. We all started somewhere. Watch a few videos if you feel you need to.

    Don't focus too much on winning until you unlock a few more perks and find a killer you're comfortable with.

    And mostly...just have fun, honestly. Don't push yourself if you suffer a hard loss, and try, try again.

    I'll try my best, thank you!
