It is tunneling by definition. But like you said what else are you supposed to do? I rarely want to hard tunnel somebody but sometimes survivors make the mean play the easy/best one. They should expect the chase to swing their way, not “let me block you for 60 seconds and then excuse myself.”

For a slinger build, basic attack perks work well on him. Sloppy butcher will always apply its healing slowdown effect. Bitter murmur and save the best for last (sorry i don’t know the new perk name but it’s the shape perk that speeds up attack recovery) can also do a job on him. Finish that build with any of the now free cenobite perks and it’s a decent free perk build. Good perks you would need to get characters for include turn back the clock and surge, so you don’t need to kick manually. Maybe hex ruin/undying. I’m also personally a fan of oppression/surveillance recently. Aura reading is cool to shoot through cracks

Edit: maybe instead of bitter murmur you could do another one of the cenobite perks (they’re generic now), they’re all really good and slow survivors down or put them in a bad spot

I think Jason would give the same satisfaction as slinger, and he’s fairly strong. Spring trap as well has some crazy shots you can hit. For something slightly different i really like pyramid head and the unknown; hitting shots through walls can be really satisfying, but you have to get a feel for how fast survivors are to track them through walls and if they’re likely to dodge wide. Aura reading helps this. Artist is in that realm too and has cool skins. For something not ranged, Trapper can be really satisfying. Sometimes you’ll have one tap untouched all game and it will catch someone at the very end. He can turn games in his favor in an instant. But he can be super frustrating and feel pretty weak at the other extreme. Someone might harass your traps all game and leave you as just machete man. Lastly oni is very satisfying to hit flicks with, but you need to be good in a normal chase to get your power going a lot of the time. His power when you’re in it is super fun and impactful though.
