To land backstabs with Two Time in the Roblox game Forsaken, approach a distracted Killer, position yourself behind them, and use Dagger before they turn toward you. Crouch can help you prepare a stealthy approach and turns the dagger attack into a dash, but you still need to judge the distance and direction correctly.
The best starting point is an ambush, not a flashy trickstab. Look for a Killer chasing another Survivor, wait near their route, and attack when their back is exposed. Once you understand the positioning, you can practice more difficult backstabs during your own chases.
This guide explains how to set up backstabs, use Crouch effectively, avoid common mistakes, and improve your timing without relying on outdated tricks.
How Two Time’s Backstabs Work
Two Time uses Dagger to attack the Killer. A successful backstab provides a stun, making it useful for interrupting a chase and helping another Survivor escape.
A front stab is not equivalent to a backstab. Connecting with the Killer does not always mean you will get the interruption you wanted.
The important distinction is your position when the attack connects. Focus on getting behind the Killer rather than relying on a trick that attempts to register a backstab while you are standing in front of them.
Older tutorials can be misleading because movement tricks and hitbox interactions may change between updates. Turning your character away from an approaching Killer does not automatically create a backstab.
For beginners, use this rule: get behind the Killer first, then stab.
The Easiest Way to Land a Backstab
Start by helping a teammate who is already being chased. This gives you a chance to approach while the Killer’s attention is directed elsewhere.
Instead of running straight toward the Killer, watch the chase and prepare an attack from a safer angle.
Find a Distracted Killer
Look at the direction both players are moving. You need a route that lets you reach the Killer’s back without stepping into their line of sight.
A straight section of the chase is easier to judge than a corner where the Killer may suddenly rotate. Avoid starting a dash when the target is about to change direction.
If the Killer notices you and turns to face you, stop forcing the attempt. Their attention has changed, and the opening you were preparing may no longer exist.
Wait for another distraction or move to a different position.
Approach From Behind
Use walls, corners, and other cover to conceal your approach.
Do not sprint after the Killer indefinitely. If they keep moving away and you cannot close the distance, wait for a better opportunity instead of exhausting your stamina.
A nearby corner or a moment when the Killer slows can provide a better opening than a long pursuit across the map.
Before attacking, check that you are behind the Killer rather than simply beside them.
Attack Before They Turn
Once you are behind the Killer and within reach, use Dagger.
Do not wait unnecessarily after reaching a good position. The longer you remain nearby, the more time the Killer has to check behind them.
However, avoid attacking early because you are worried about being spotted. If the target is outside your reach, the attempt can miss and leave you exposed.
Good backstabs depend on balancing those two decisions: getting close enough without giving the Killer too much time to react.
How to Use Crouch for Backstabs
Crouch supports Two Time’s stealth approach by reducing visibility and silencing footsteps. Using Dagger while crouched changes the attack into a dash, helping cover a gap that a normal stab may not reach.
That extra movement does not guarantee a backstab. The crouched attack has startup and recovery, so you need to account for where the Killer is moving.
Prepare Your Position Before Crouching
Choose your angle before using the ability. Crouching in an exposed area where the Killer already sees you does not create a surprise attack.
A useful setup is to wait behind cover near an ongoing chase. When the Killer passes and exposes their back, judge whether the crouched dash can reach them.
If they are too far away or moving unpredictably, keep waiting. Do not spend the attack simply because Crouch is active.
Aim Along the Killer’s Route
A crouched stab is easier to judge when the Killer is moving in a predictable direction.
If they are about to round a corner, your attack may travel toward a position they have already left. Wait for their route to become clearer before committing.
For example, a Killer following a teammate down a straight passage presents a clearer approach than one rapidly turning around a small obstacle.
Treat the dash as a way to finish a good setup, not as a substitute for positioning.
How to Set Up a Corner Backstab
Corners can hide your preparation and let you approach after the Killer passes.
A basic corner ambush works like this:
- Find cover beside a likely chase route.
- Watch or listen for the Killer approaching.
- Let them move past your position.
- Step toward their exposed back.
- Use Dagger when you have a clear attack angle.
- Move away after the successful stun.
This is different from stepping directly into the Killer’s path and trying to force a front-facing trickstab.
Do not wait at the same visible corner after being discovered. Once the Killer knows your position, they can approach carefully or turn toward you before passing.
Choose another angle rather than repeating a setup they have already seen.
How to Backstab While Being Chased
Backstabbing during your own chase is more difficult than attacking a distracted Killer. Your opponent is already watching you, so they are more likely to react to your movement.
Treat chase backstabs as a risky option rather than your default strategy.
Get Behind the Killer, Not Just Beside Them
A chase backstab requires movement that places you behind the Killer before the attack connects.
Merely stepping sideways does not guarantee that position. If the Killer turns with you, the opening can disappear.
Corners may help conceal a direction change, but the attempt still depends on spacing, timing, and the opponent’s reaction.
If you cannot reach a clear rear position, prioritize escaping rather than forcing the attack.
Avoid Depending on Old Moonwalk Tricks
Older advice often recommends facing away from an approaching Killer and stabbing as they reach you.
Do not expect that method to work consistently in every version of Forsaken. Front-facing tricks can depend on hitbox interactions that change over time.
Learn a normal rear approach first. Attempt advanced movement only when you understand where your character ends up relative to the Killer.
What to Do After a Successful Backstab
Use the stun to create distance. Do not remain beside the Killer after landing the attack.
Move toward cover or another useful route before the chase resumes. If you backstabbed to help a teammate, let them use the interruption to escape while you find a safer position.
Choose your exit before attempting the stab. A successful hit is less useful if your only escape route leads into a dead end.
Avoid immediately returning to the same exposed position. The Killer now knows where you are and may change their target.
