I couldn't tell if the player was exactly "new" as they didn't have prestige on Knight so take that how you will.

Either way, I hope both the killer and the audience watching can treat this as a lesson to be learned. Bloodlust can be easily cheesed to very quickly catch up to a survivor with some added time spent doing so. But in scenarios like what the video shows, that isn't always the case. Trying to abuse the mechanic for too long could waste enough time that a lot of gens (if not all) get finished, essentially throwing the match entirely. If you're struggling in 1 chase, there is no shame in breaking off a strong survivor to hunt a weaker one.

Personally, I think bloodlust activating quicker encourages and rewards bad playstyles. It's one thing to help killers in a chase if a map isn't exactly in their favor, it's another thing to allow bloodlust to carry killers that ignore doing basic strategies such as breaking pallets. This is intended to completely remove options and restrict what the survivors can do moving forward. Would it really hurt to spend a few seconds destroying them?

In an ideal world, either bloodlust 1 is the only speed boost allowed or any whiffed attacked decrease bloodlust tokens. Killers need to adapt to what their options are and improve their skills with respective characters. No one will ever become better if they constantly rely on bloodlust.
