Q & A
What is the speaker's main issue with the Dead by Daylight tutorial for survivors?
-The speaker believes the tutorial is inadequate, showing only a small fraction of what actually happens in the game and not providing enough useful information for new players.
What does the speaker suggest as a strategy for new players to improve their gameplay?
-The speaker recommends new players to 'abuse everything', meaning they should make the most of their perks, items, map knowledge, and understanding of the killer's weaknesses.
According to the speaker, what is the importance of playing both survivor and killer roles in Dead by Daylight?
-Playing both roles helps players learn more about the game mechanics and strategies, and it can make them better at both roles by understanding the mindset and tactics of the opponent.
What is the '2-2-2' strategy mentioned in the script, and how does it help in ranking up?
-The '2-2-2' strategy is a simple approach where players aim to fix two generators, save two people, and get chased twice. This baseline activity is meant to ensure a minimum level of contribution to the team, which can help in ranking up.
Why does the speaker discourage the use of the 'Self-Care' perk for new players?
-The speaker believes that 'Self-Care' is not efficient for new players and suggests that there are better ways to heal. They recommend new players to focus on learning the game and then choose perks based on personal preference.
What does the speaker mean by 'abusing the environment' in Dead by Daylight?
-The speaker suggests using the game environment to your advantage, such as hiding in darker spots or using the layout to create escape routes. This strategy can help avoid getting caught by the killer.
What is the significance of the 'head tilt' animation in the context of flashlight saving?
-The 'head tilt' animation is a cue for players to use their flashlight to save a fellow survivor. The speaker advises waiting for this specific animation before using the flashlight to maximize the effectiveness of the save.
How does the speaker define a 'good palette' versus a 'bad palette' for looping?
-A 'good palette' is one that is long and provides visibility of the killer's movements, making it harder for the killer to hit the player. A 'bad palette' is shorter and doesn't offer as much visibility or protection, requiring players to be more cautious and strategic.
What advice does the speaker give about looping when starting a game as a survivor?
-The speaker advises against using the first generator you see and instead suggests moving to the middle or the other side of the map to start looping. This is based on the idea that you are more likely to be close to the killer's starting location.
What is the 'rule of three' in looping as mentioned by the speaker?
-The 'rule of three' is a basic looping technique where the player should go around a good palette three times before dropping it to create a barrier, thus wasting the killer's time and potentially allowing for escape or further looping.

Transcripts
the dead by daylight tutorial is trash
the survivor one at least because it was
the only one i tried before having a
stroke
it shows at max five percent of what
really happens in actual games
it took him 10 minutes to tell me oh
dude jen
i didn't lock her like like no wonder
rank 20s go down quicker than this
but this is what this video is for to
tell you the rest of the 95
the tutorial didn't show in the exact
same amount of time i have over two
thousand hours of this game been playing
it since it came out i've also been rank
one survivor and killer more times than
your mum and the mailman have been
seeing each other behind your dad's back
so i know what i'm talking about
i'll teach you everything you need to
know about playing survivor while
following kiss
keep it simple stupid meaning everything
will be explained in simple terms but
you'll still learn a lot
this video is primarily for new players
or yellow and brown rank players
struggling to rank up but yes
educational demi is back
this part of the video is just advice
that i as a gamer am giving to you
another gamer but if you don't care you
can just skip to the sections that you
need
first up be just like your drunk dad and
abuse everything
obviously i don't [ __ ] mean glitches
or exploits i mean abuse your perks your
items your add-ons the map you're on the
survivor you're playing as the killer's
weaknesses etc who cares
abuse it it doesn't matter if your team
is [ __ ] or the map is bad abuse it still
everything is in your favor if you make
it out to be a smart man doesn't bring a
knife to a gunfight
a wise man does and still wins or or the
other way around i don't [ __ ] know
still it's a good mindset to abuse
everything because everything is in your
favor if you make it out to be next tell
yourself you don't care dvd is a game
that gives people brain aneurysms
because it's rage inducing sometimes
just tell yourself you don't care when
moments like that happen and in a month
or two just like me nothing in this game
will affect you i've done psychology for
four years now and i'm an honest student
for it so trust me when i say that this
works finally don't be a [ __ ] [ __ ]
play both survivor n killer you learn a
lot from playing both
don't be scared of getting bullied
because you're playing as killer you're
learning grow up and play it there are
survivor mains out there that actually
refuse to play killer because of that
reason
don't be a beta play killer and you'll
be better at survivor trust me
so this is probably going to be the most
controversial part of this video but i
don't care this is my [ __ ] opinion
based on my hours of experience
first and simple self-care is [ __ ] if
you're a new
player as good as the perk sounds don't
use it it's a waste of your time and
there are more efficient ways of healing
yourself
but self-care has its advantages you
just don't know how to use it the perk
is trash it used to be good but now it's
trash
let's get over this anyway perks are
personal preference use whatever one you
want to use
except for [ __ ] self-care however if
you're a new player or if you want a set
of perks listen up
level up meg first then run these perks
you're gonna be getting rid of these two
perks when you rank up i'm only
suggesting them for new players as i
want them to build their game sense and
get used to where the killer can be and
come from in different maps
basically in the end as you get used to
everything these two perks will already
be pre-built into your head
giving you more room to abuse different
perks premonition this helps you know
what direction the killer is in
spine chill will help you know if he's
looking at you don't rely on these perks
forever just learn from them to get that
10
000 iq so you know where the killer can
come from and whether you should hide or
keep working on the gen get rid of them
when you're comfortable and replace them
with more big brain perks sprint burst
this helps you get away from the killer
replace it with another exhaustion perk
if you like whichever one tickles your
bum hole kindred is really good if
you're solo queuing especially in low
ranks where everyone doesn't know what
the [ __ ] is happening basically when
you're hooked all the other survivors
can see each other and they can also see
the killer if he's a short distance away
from you again this perk is just a
throwaway one replace it any time you
want whenever you want read about
different character perks so that you
can replace your beginner ones again
it's all personal preference just don't
use
[ __ ] self clear
a lot of people tell me demi i do so
much in game yet i still can't
pip up well let me tell you something
one pallet stun and half a generator
isn't enough
but here's a quick and simple way of
knowing whether you have done enough or
not this is a strat i came up with
called the 2-2-2 strat it's really
simple all you basically have to do is
two gems
save two people and get chased twice
remember that two two two is a baseline
so
obviously do more and trust me you will
[ __ ] pip
if not you will at least blackpip and if
you don't even blackpip from that
i will literally [ __ ] in my own hands
and clap it's literally so simple i tell
everyone at that rank this and they go
up pretty fast in very high ranks 222
stops working because you obviously need
to do more and you need to adapt but
trust me at this rank
abuse the crap out of it a couple of
extra tips you should think about when
you're doing 2-2-2
when you're getting chased those two or
however many times think of it as sex
try and last more than 30 seconds for
the full effect next when you're doing
gems try and do one
gen on one side of the map and then
another on the other side
this prevents the risk of getting 3gend
now 3gen is basically when the killer
can patrol three generators that are
extremely close to each other because
you [ __ ] up doing gens
this makes your chances of surviving
extremely hard so try and balance out
your gents to make it look something
like this so that the killer has to walk
cross map in order to patrol the gems
making it
extremely hard to protect them again
abuse everything
even the location of generators pop quiz
is this survivor doing something wrong
[Music]
if you answered a you are correct well
done well done the survivor was staring
at a rock instead of looking around to
check for the killer
if you're a survivor doing a gen always
keep looking around you even if there's
no heartbeat
remember some killers are stealthy and
will grab you out of nowhere
scaring you and you get hooked it's
happened to me millions of times so
don't make the same mistakes and train
yourself to look around
[ __ ] this game is [ __ ] mad
[ __ ]
[Music]
there's an old dead by daylight saying
which is learn to hide before you run
meaning before you pull [ __ ] like this
off
you have to learn how to do this first
trust me when i say practice getting
good at hiding it really helps if you
want to escape a chase or if you don't
want to start one in the first place oh
and for [ __ ] sakes do
not rely on lockers these things get you
killed more times than they actually
help you
just like in this clip rely on the
environment abuse the environment
because even if you get caught you have
an exit strategy you can run away
unlike when you're in a locker also
abuse your character wear darker things
and hide in darker spots of the map
you'll be extremely hard to see
i have an entire video on this where i
do it as claudette watch how i hide in
this video
and abuse it when you play survivor oh
and for a bonus tip if you don't want to
get caught at the start
of the game don't do the first generator
you see when you spawn in
make your way to the middle or to the
other side of the map and do a generator
there because 90
of the time you spawn right across the
killer abuse this knowledge
flashlight saving is one of the easiest
things to do other youtubers complicate
the [ __ ] out of this
it's really simple to do and with 20
minutes of practice you'll be a pro at
flashlight saving with flashlight saving
stay around the down survivor but don't
get caught only spring into action when
the killer is picking up the survivor
then just wait for this head tilt
animation this tiny tilt right
there and shine your flashlight
[Music]
there
and there
[Music]
as you saw from the head clip the head
tilt is a little harder to see on
smaller killers but practice that timing
for around 20 or 30 minutes and trust me
you'll be a flashlight god
because of the new updates the
flashlight beam starts a little to the
left instead of just straight on making
it a tiny bit harder than before
but again 20 to 30 minutes to get the
timing and adjusting right and that
won't ever affect you
most of the time what the
pop quiz if a killer is walking towards
you do you shine your flashlight at them
[Music]
if you answered b give yourself a
pattern on the back because you're not a
[ __ ]
killers have this thing called a mouse
in which they can look away if they're
walking towards you and you're flashing
them
please don't be this person
only and i repeat only use your
flashlight when a killer is stuck in an
animation for example
picking up a survivor
or breaking a pallet
[Applause]
there's loads of other animations where
the killer can't turn away so only use
your flashlight then
good luck gamers palette saves just like
your nan
are extremely easy but hard to come by
so practice with friends if you even
have any
just like flashlight saves wait in a
safe spot until the pickup animation
begins
then all you gotta do is be patient wait
for the animation to finish and then you
drop that [ __ ] palette on their
back
to simplify it even more wait for the
animation to finish
drop the palette not before not during
after
it's really that easy you master this
and killers are going to be like
so looping is the best way of getting
chase because you waste a lot of the
killer's time
there's a lot of things to loop that if
i told you all of them it would probably
add another 10 minutes to this video
so for now i'm just going to teach you
basic looping that can help you survive
a decent amount so first you've got to
know your palettes identify what is a
good palette and what is a bad one
think of good and bad palettes as
peepees in this clip i'm looping a good
palette because it's nice and long
as you can see i can see the killer over
it so it's very hard for them to hit me
and i can see where they're going so i
can change the direction this next
palette
is a bad palette as you can see it's
smaller than the other one
and a simple mind game would have downed
me if it wasn't for my perk
you can still survive a bad palette like
in this clip but a tip is to not stay on
them for very long and when an
opportunity arrives just leave it
this palette i'm looping right now in
this clip is also a very good palette
you just can't see through it so when
looping just keep your eye out for the
killer
okay so how do you loop again there are
a million things to loop in the game but
i'm only going to teach you the basics
and the basic is the rule of three
find a good palette go around it three
times
then drop the palette so when you're
looping try and stick as close to the
walls as possible like what i'm doing in
this clip it helps to close the distance
between you and the palette so you can
get to it faster and pull it down if you
have to now just as a reminder
you might not be able to do the full
three loops it really depends on how far
the killer is from you
three loops again is just the baseline
because that's probably how long it'll
take before the killer catches up to you
and bums you
and yes it's possible to go for even
more than three loops and waste even
more of the killer's time
let your boy show you how
for the love of god if you are green
yellow or brown ranks
abuse the [ __ ] out of palette fakes
ninety percent of killers in those ranks
constantly fall for them and it's
amazing
pal effects are when you pretend to pull
a palette down while looping you do this
by completely facing the palette as if
you're gonna pull it down but back away
in the last second in most cases the
killer will hesitate by either stepping
back or stopping completely
then you just gotta keep looping you can
see in this clip that the leather face
is about to whack me but i do the pallet
fake i back out and he hesitates for a
split second giving me another chance to
loop remember you can also fake windows
by doing the exact same thing pretend to
vault through it and the killer will
usually swing buying you just enough
time to reach the pallet
again this one's a little harder but
it's [ __ ] amazing when it actually
happens you can also fake a rescue by
running up to a survivor and pretending
to pull them down forcing the killer
into the hit animation allowing you to
pull down the survivor and escape i give
you full permission to be a toxic piece
of [ __ ] if the killer was face camping
there are important loops that i want
you to master first the shack a very
powerful loop that when done correctly
will actually make a grown killer cry
shaq has one window one pallet and two
entrances
the best way to do this loop go through
the entrance without the pallet and
vault through the window and back again
if the kill is too close that he can
sniff your bum go to the pallet
try and not use shack pallet at the very
start of the game i recommend
only pulling it down when there are two
generators remaining this is because
it's such a good palette and you need to
constantly save it
sometimes i'd rather get down than to
pull that palette picture is another
very good loop not as important as shark
but still
pretty good to efficiently lit pig tree
vault the side of the window that
doesn't have the rock in front of it and
make your way to the palette and back
again
it's pretty simple and i highly
recommend faking palettes on this
now that you know the basics of looping
you're 50 and annoying survivor that
killers are actually going to despise
if you want to learn the rest of looping
spots and unleash your full potential
take what you learn from here and watch
this video it shows you how to loop even
more things so abuse it pop quiz
this survivor got hit and is near a
pallet what does he do next
if you entered b you are wrong
and you're probably guilty of doing this
when you get hit you get a speed boost
abuse that speed boost don't just panic
and drop the pallet wasting a perfectly
good loop in this clip i use the speed
boost i get from the hit to go to
another loop and then after i'm finished
looping her there i go back to the
original loop wasting even more of her
time
doing what i just did is 10 times better
than just doing this
please don't be that person
now that you're a speed demon and you're
good at getting chased time to learn how
to get out of one by juking the killer
dukes are also good for buying you just
a little bit of extra time
let's start off with some easy jigs that
you can just pull off for this trick
make sure you've done at least one or
two shack loops then pretend you're
going to go for your third loop
but instead of actually vaulting the
window you're going to hide in this
little corner next to the locker
and just escape the killer for the wall
trick it's similar to the shark jib
except you're using these big walls
do one or two loops then hide in the
corner and wait for the killer to pass
for this duke just go through any window
and wait for the killer to go through it
as he's doing that crouch next to him
and move the other way or vault the
window again it helps to know killer
blind spots for these jukes so please
practice your killer don't be a [ __ ]
these next chicks are a bit harder to
execute but are really good for stalling
i recommend them to simply buy more time
or as a last resort don't just keep
doing these as a flex when a kill is
about to hit you hide in a locker she'll
miss the hit
leave as soon as possible and try and
get out corner duke is pressing up
against the corner and going the other
way towards the killer
sometimes they'll miss a hit i don't
really recommend this one if you can't
get it right but when the killer is
breaking a pallet
go around him like this and hopefully he
swings and misses or gets confused for a
second
this is a fun one make sure the killer
doesn't have enduring stun them
then mid stun vault the palette and
watch them miss you completely
and finally everyone's favorite the 360.
very good when comboed with faking
windows
or rescues so when the killer is about
to hit you press wasd in that order and
move your mouse slowly to the right
or wdsa and move your mouse slowly to
the left if you want to go the other way
only use this as a last resort because
it only works like 30
of the time anyway just like my brain
all right i've taught you everything you
need to know good luck
don't die and don't use self-care
extract stroke
come and get your demi please i said
extra extra come and get your demi
please
get
