Trivia

Saboteur old
  • Before Patch 3.6.0, when Bear TrapsIconPowers trap could still be sabotaged, Saboteur's icon reflected that fact by portraying a broken Bear Trap.
  • On the original official website, Saboteur featured a flavour text: "Hopefully this'll buy me some time."
  • It should be noted that sabotaging a HookIconHelpLoading hook with Saboteur does not prevent the creation of a Loud Noise Notification, which will inform the Killer of the action.
