  1. I remembered i quit playing DBD for a year becuase of a bully squad. I got them three in a row and i had a bad day as well. I realized how toxic the game was for me and left. Ofc i came back for 2v8😅

  2. 9:47 Yup, and all the crybabies who kept giving up and/or DCing at Skull Merchant finally got her nerfed into absolute uselessness.
    So take heart, any spoiled brat reading this: DBD is the game for you! Don't like something? Just throw a tantrum for 9 months straight and get your crybaby friends on Reddit/Steam etc to help you because the developer (Behaviour) apparently has no spine!

  3. I don't see some of these as toxic. I don't see tunneling/camping as toxic. Slugging? Yes. But tunneling/camping is just…ya know, securing a kill to me. specifically Tunneling. I get out the weakest person first. As for waiting? Yeaaaah that's more annoying to me. =v=

  4. The fact that ppl think the other side doing their objectives quickly and efficiently is toxic??? Yes this includes gen rushing, tunneling, etc. Imo its not toxic. Like I said its just playstyles and doing objectives

  5. Surprised you didn’t mention the blackface Bubba stuff. Streamers were supposedly being targeted by Bubbas wearing the Claudette based Smartface. I don’t know exactly what transpired but it was enough for Bhvr to outright remove all of the free, original survivor based masks available to be earned for Bubba. It was a strange, reactionary decision that left Bubba players with simply less cosmetics over the actions of a few bad actors.

  6. If you honestly think Skull Merchant is toxic, you was a nerd in high school and think anything is bullying. Because you can’t beat a killer now it’s toxic 😂 I thank everyone with a crying survivor main mentality for the gen kick limit too. Boring = I suck against this killer.

  7. I don't get bothered by toxicity too much in DBD… except when survivors begin acting entitled and literally sabotage their own teammates because they aren't playing at the same standards as them. I hate that. It usually ends up with these toxic survivors pointing out other survivors to the killer, cussing in the end game results screen, or them straight up refusing to play the game. That's the only toxic gameplay that gets on my nerves… and it's weirdly usually the P100s who do this.

  8. Remember, it isn't tunneling if you act in the most basic and predictable way possible and end up directly in front of a killer. I've seen players try to force a totem cleanse from hook twice then complain when they were 3-hooked in a row as a result.
