Killer Perks That Keep Pressure On

This ranking favors generator pressure and late-game threats. Corrupt Intervention disrupts the opening, while Pop Goes the Weasel, Pain Resonance, and Ruin punish repair progress. Devour Hope and No One Escapes Death can turn a late trial around, but both Hex perks depend on their Totem staying active.
