Why it works
Windows of Opportunity shows every pallet and window, so you always know where the next loop is. Lithe turns a fast vault into a burst of speed that ends many chases early. Decisive Strike and Off the Record together make you very hard to tunnel after an unhook.
How to play
Take chases on purpose and run them long. Save Lithe for a strong window so the killer cannot simply follow you. After an unhook, play near your team and use Decisive Strike only when the killer commits to you.
How this score is made
Score 85/100 = rules 84 + 1 from NightLight community stats. The rules part is calculated by this site from the perk descriptions; only the community part comes from real match results.
| Part | Points | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| Synergy | 34 / 50 | Known strong perk pairs (13 each) and purposes shared by 2+ perks (4 each), max 50. |
| Balance | 50 / 50 | Basic needs: killers want gen slowdown (−20 without) and info (−10 without); survivors want a chase or second-chance perk (−20 without) and something for the team (−10 without). −10 per empty slot. |
| Conflicts | 0 | Penalties: the same perk twice (licensed copy, −15), two Exhaustion perks (−15), 2+ hexes without Undying or Thrill of the Hunt (−6). |
| Community stats | +1 | NightLight: how often these perks win compared with the average perk of their role, corrected for small samples (−10 to +10). Only when stats are imported. |
