stalker could be like the jockey but due to its ability it  is rather similar to what the smoker originally was before the devs decided the original was too OP and changed it...PR doesn't care about balance lol this is what the smoker originally was...directly from the cut infected page... " " seems rather similar to stalkers invisible taxi, huh?
 * The original purpose of the Smoker was to sneak up on the Survivors in a cloud of smoke, seize any one of them, and "pop out" again to leave the unlucky Survivor stranded.
 * In early footage, the Smoker seemed to have had the ability to release pitch-black smoke whenever he wanted to. If the Survivors were near the Smoker when he fired his smoke, they would have been pushed back as if they were hit by a Boomer explosion.
