So far in my experience, the Monsters are at a huge disadvantage in this event. The Hunters (especially Pulse & Jackal) have a strong advantage, and most rounds are ending with the Hunters getting pretty easy wins and the Monsters only winning rarely.

What are the tips & tactics you guys have used so far that have given the Monsters their best success? I've tried creating "trap alleys" to maximize damage. I've tried "hiding deep" by not moving much (or at all) to avoid detection. I've saved all my invisible charges to the end of the round to give me better escape chances. I've tried fast-deploy traps like Ela and Lesion to slow Hunters down and escape. Not much seems to help and 9 times out of 10 you just get swarmed and clobbered. Thoughts?

I played with some friends last night and we noticed sticking together as a team usually led to us winning a good majority of the time as the Monsters. We were messing around and came up with a strat where we reinforced Control Room walls, had frost put bear traps in the corner of the room and the window and gu mines scattered around as well to slow them down. Our Kapkan put EEDs on pretty much every door that could've led to Control Room, and our Smoke hid close by as our decoy/distractor. If everything breaks down and all your friends start dying... just run, everyone for themselves lol.
