Why is slugging considered toxic?
I've been called toxic for slugging several times recently, what's so bad about it

It isnt. Unbreakable is a perk that exists. Tell them to learn to play.

Slugging survivors is just another strategy that I think some salty people have a problem with. As a survivor main tho, I don't mind this strat at all. One of the better ones imo. Also survivors that complain about slugging can get perks like unbreakable or flip-flop to easily combat it lol.

it not just some bad survivor cant deal with it so they called it "toxic" nothing is toxic
its a cheap way to win, its unfair and almost like cheating though its in the game,
its not meant to be used on 3-4 at the same time. it's stupid it, esp when people
burn cakes and there is 5 gens left, can play around with your food without farming.
rank up them points then slaughter them all. i been trying to do that, points is good.

I slug all the time but rarely got salty chat or toxic comment. You must be a lucky guy. Also to answer your question, slugging is kinda toxic. People have to wait on the floor for 4 minutes. Imagine you find a game, try to enjoy it but what you get is doing nothing for 4 minute. Actually it's even worse than doing nothing. You have to concentrate for when will other survivor come pick you up and all. You don't get to have that 4 minute to watch Youtube, playing with your phone or do anything. Just stare at the stupjd screen like an idiot. Basically a 4 minute of patience without any enjoyable reason. It's also annoying for other survivors too since they have to heal the dying one instead of just unhook in 3 seconds. With hooked survivor, they can get benefit from DS, Borrowed time, Exhausted restore but slugging deny all of those thing. Well, we have Soul Guard to counter slugging but it's still not really good and all. That perk was mainly mean to counter slugging killer at the end game, not the kind of slugging that slug you from the start. Slugging also rarely happen, that perk belong to a DLC character so it's hard to get and it's hard to use.

I only slug someone if I know exactly where another survivor is so I can immediately go after them instead of hooking. I don't run around downing people instead of hooking them, I always hook if I can if that changes anything

Because people don't like it when their oopponents use strategies that actually worked.

Hence why people get called camper when they just happen to capitalize on a crappy save.

It's a cheesy strategy for killer who doesn't confident at secure the kill or killer who just want to ruin survivor fun. Get it right.

That's not slugging. That's either greedy or confident at downing multiple survivor then hook them later.

Did you not read what i said right?
I wasnt implying the killer was actually camping.
Killers will see a survivor running towards the hook as they're patrolling and will intervene and survivors will call that camping when it's not.

Please read properly. YOU need to get it right.
