So Sick of Noob teammates. So I'm writing this Guide
Had 4 matches in a row with 0 Kill and everybody escaping.
I am so mad right now wanna break this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ keyboard as I type.
ANYWAYS....here's 10 tips for killers:

1. Learn ENGLISH so you can communicate or at least understand what the hell I am writing in the text chat. If u don't know English type No English in the lobby so I can dodge it.

2. If u play as Hitch don't set traps in plain sight. Remember Victims are not blind!!! and can easily disable it once they see it. make your traps invisible by setting them in the grass or shadows. or make em untouchable by placing them near the gaps and holes. this way Victims have no choice but to step on it.

3. If u play as Leatherface destroy the barricades. Don't just run around and rev that chainsaw. You get nothing by doing that. destroy the barricades so your teammate can move around faster and you get lots of XP. WIN WIN, right?

4. Don't be selfish some maps requires you to forget about your favorite character and play someone you don't like. I'm talking about the Cook obviously. the least popular killer in the entire game. family house and gas station NEED a Cook. So when you see there is no Cook in the team show some dedication and forget about Johnny or Sissy and take the damn Cook!!!

5. Don't rush in the basement unless Victims woke up the Grandpa in the first 10 seconds. cuz now they won't have time to gather tools and weapons. Otherwise they most likely have everything and some of em might even be outside while you and Leatherface are chasing down only 1 person.

6. Feed the Grandpa!!! if you kill someone and your blood vial is full go feed the old man, Don't be ignorant. a high level Grandpa puts pressure on victims to make a mistake, besides it activates your perks.

7. Speaking of which don't forget to equip Grandpa's perks. if you see a teammate have the same one as you change your perk. cuz the game will automatically delete one of em and your perk will be useless.

8. When u hear the damn Valve get in there with a teammate, one of u to shut it down and the other to protect you. most of the times Victims are just camping there to stab anyone who wanna turn off that Valve.

9. When you see a teammate chasing down a victim don't just run behind him. try to flank them. Victims will use gaps to get on the other side of the wall. if u just wanna run mindlessly he will use that gap again to get back where he was. So don't rush. Cover both sides of a gap with your teammate.

10. this one for the slaughter house, The easiest map to escape. If u play as Hitch and hear the Valve gate is opening set all of your traps next to the that car which is parked in front of the gate. You can block the whole way with 3 traps. I insist NOT in front of the gate but on the right side of the car. yes It is in plain sight but victims are in rush and don't think about risking disabling them. Don't just stand in front of the gate. what the hell u wanna do? one shoting anyone who get close??? you take one swing and they are out. You are not Leatherface!!!

I'm a Victim main, and #5 rang true. So many times Family will be chasing me or another Victim in the basement while the others are up top working on exits. It happens so often.

Similarly, I had all three Family chasing me recently as I ran for the open Slaughterhouse pressure gate. Understandablly the other three Victims used the opportunity to escape with no resistance.

Wouldn't it be nice if there was this thing, this like...i dunno, icon or something that appeared above player's heads in lobbies, that displayed what level they were? If you knew that, you could just say screw it, no I don't want to play with two lv 3s, and you could just find some other lobby.

For 7, in fact don't equip any grandpa perks if someone already has exterior alarms or no one escapes hell on already.
It is what it is, noob teammates will always exist especially since new people are probably picking up the game from the small sale. I had an LF just now that didn't know that revving up his chainsaw allowed him to go into a full sprint.

And that's okay because I didn't know either when I first started playing. It's just part of the learning process and without a singleplayer to learn the basics first, that's just what'll happen.

What was the reasoning for that, to just ensure those gets activated right off the bat?

Pretty much. EA is amazing to a point where it almost kills your need to patrol as long as you keep an eye out. NEH is pretty nice. But getting them on Grandpa levs 1 and 2, which you usually can get pretty much for free when victims leave basement on any map but Family House really stacks the deck in Family's favor.

What else are you gonna bring? All the other grandpa perks can be roughly thrown in the same "they all suck" bag. Couple exceptions, but yeah.

Pretty much, it's way more worth it to get either as soon as possible than equipping anything else.

Its expected when you're solo queue'ing and/or when you don't have a full team. Oh and not everyone has the same game mindset, everyone plays differently (unfortunately.) Even experienced players make mistakes, we're all only just human.

These are definitely useful points tbf! Although, I somewhat disagree with the hitch one as some traps in plain sight can be really effective (eg leading to side garden in family house). I think the main barrier for new players is not knowing the maps. If you're on your mic like 'they've opened left generator door' or something they might take ages to find where that is.
