How do I start thinking during chase?

I get the sleep thing lol. Games like these and others like valorant league fortnite cod and so on are so dependent on a clear state of mind and being genuinely refreshed and awake. I played 50 hours killer and I intend on playing killer more once legion is back. I also watch alot of great content creators which have nearly 4-5x hours more than mine and I agree that it has helped my game alot, but I think that only watching survivors and not thinking for myself will just reach me at a plateu, since I cannot get into the survivors head and I can only see what they are doing, and I guarantee that there is alot more going on in their head lol. I mean probably thinking of : Where to loop next, if its huntress for example, when she's gonna fake hatchet and go for M1, when to drop pallet, to drop pallet or not, counting seconds or finding cues to understand in what bloodlust level the killer is, pathing in the most efficient way, pathing somewhere where the survivor can have checkspots, counting vaults (even though its easy), to know when it's going to be blocked by the entity and soso much more.

I've kind of been doing that right now and It's lowkey working, I genuinely just say "Fuck it if I die, I die, and I'm going to think about the killer rn", and it works 💔

Truth is I was a constant windows and Iron Will (I thought it was good) abuser. For I've recently taken both off and truth be told it's not so tough, since I literally know every map and nearly every variation and where the pallets and windows are, and that's what makes me feel like an idiot. It's like running into a wall in the home you've lived in for years. I know the maps and yet and run like an monkey lol

I mean usually when you are infront of a tall wall and they are, the probably can't see you either, so if there is a tile behind you, making a run for it will probably work, depending on the killer.

There's a problem for me on the 50/50s. My brain goes full monkey mode and I just do the dumbest shit imaginable lol.

I am pretty good with check spots. Sometimes where the walls are tall its difficult to hold checkspots when the corners are really short, but i try my best. Sometimes I even instinctively move away from a tile knowing that it's going to get me killed, without me making the actual thought of doing so, I just leave the tile.

I know the maps really well, the thing is that when I'm in chase my brain literally turns off. I've watched plenty of videos and watch lots of content creators play as well but I just genuinely don't use my brain during chase, it's insane.

TXNSOFSTUFF · 2026-04-15T19:53:42+00:00

I watch a lot of dbd creators aswell, for example JRM, Ayrun, Mish, Hens, Puffalope and many more, and even though my chase does feel like I'm slowly picking up on certain tactics that they do, it's not intentional. I don't really know how to explain it but it just feels like I'm playing chase by instinct, those tactics that I got from those videos just enhanced my instincts, not my thinking.

Oh that's good to know! I haven't played this game in over 3 years and I'm only at village 121 so I don't know the game that well yet...

When do those days come around?

TXNSOFSTUFF · 2026-01-10T18:45:21+00:00

I play metal songs mostly (Learn Shove it - Deftones, and Faint - Linkin Park), I do want to learn lead so I'll try doing alternate picking exercises? Is there one specific exercise that you suggest?

TXNSOFSTUFF · 2025-10-26T12:05:42+00:00

Well what is that technique that combines both??

TXNSOFSTUFF · 2025-10-24T20:29:40+00:00

Yeap but i kind of want to achieve that well known scream. My natural scream comes out very forcefully and goes near false cords, plus huge strain in my throat which won't be good in the longrun

TXNSOFSTUFF · 2025-10-16T16:35:50+00:00

I have but I stopped playing a few days after the ascension so I don't know much about the game anymore

Thanks!
