Lithe, because you can run in the map without care about SB being triggered and you will trigger lithe when it's important, in a chase
Balenced landing best perk, all the proooos use it

But why? When do you ever jump from a cliff in a chase? 1/10 times at best, no?

Lithe imo. It gives you the speed boost when you want it and it also is the best opportunity as the killer will be slowed by vaulting or breaking the pallet that you vaulted. This gives you more distance than a sprint burst would and since line of sight is likely broken by this, you have a much better chance at juking and hiding.

I prefer to play a juke and hide survivor. Soon as I can, I use IW3 to hide, Lithe is more beneficial than Sprint Burst for this. Sprint Burst is more "on demand" but also just helps avoid getting hit at the start of a chase.

Balanced Landing is good on Haddonfield and that's it imo.

All are good
Lithe is arguably the best, cause it's applying to more maps
BL is good on maps like Haddonfield or Swamp
Sprint Burst is just good
Lithe > Balanced Landing > Sprint Burst

Balanced Landing has saved my life way more times than Lithe ever has. Lithe, in my opinion, is mostly useful against Nurse's. Lithe activating can be a bit wonky at times too if you're out of sight of the killer

Lithe because just sprint when the killer is following you and you jump a window or something like that^^

It depends on which map you are playing, Lithe and balanced landing is good for maps with big amount of windows and jumping spots. But sprint burst can be activated at any given time but you have to walk which has its prons and cons for example you may start a chase with exhaustion and during the chase your sprint burst gets activated which is a nice suprise for the killer etc.

People are saying Balanced Landing and I have no clue why. There are like 3 maps you can actually use it on. Lithe without a doubt

Lith is the best, honestly.

But since i play with Decisive Strike, i rather use Sprintboost, so i can cover more distance after the DS stun.

Right? I don't get why that one's so popular. I haven't used it myself, but it just seems way too situational.

I prefer Lithe
Lithe: you can run whenever you want to without consuming your speed boost. When you jump over a pallet or window, the killer has to go around the window or break the pallet. Making it a really good escape tool.

Sprint Burst: Gives you that initial distance from the killer, but generally he will still chase after you. But the plus with this over Lithe is if you can last long enough it may be recharged again mid chase.

Balanced Landing: The plus over the other two perks is that when you fall you do not get the landing stun, so even if you don't have it charged you can still fall down a hill or building without stopping once you land, which if the killer is behind you will get you dead. Unless your Nea, most killers will not expect you to use this either.

I have used all three of these perks and had scenarios where each has saved me from dying where the other perks would not have. Umtimately I say Lithe has gotten me away from the killer more often than the other perks though.
