Idea on makeing tackledrag less infuriating

The runner might get the pounce and the initial grab, but then the opposite player should an actual say in the matter. I’m down for anything that makes the runners less of a disaster to play against, but I feel the solution should be on the marine side. Give marine players more options when being jumped so there is a very possible chance that they can defend themselves.

I had this idea, I still think it is a good option for marines while not being unfair for xenos.

@Cabal

Here is an idea: Go with that kind of a Resident Evil route of expendable resource allowing you to escape a “grab”.

What that could be? Boot knife. Every single marine gets one chance to break from xeno grab even if stunned, knife gets stuck in a runner for example, gets lost and that runner can’t grab anyone for a couple of seconds.

Thats it. Second xeno can try to grab you, or that first can wait out his cooldown.
Knife has to be in your boots, maybe make it a normal-sized item and it would be perfect.
