Any ideas on how to deal with body blocking in the basement?

Recently I played in a match where the killer relentlessly tunneled me out of the match at the beginning. What made this even more frustrating was him blocking me on the stairs and waiting for the borrowed time buff to expire before hitting me. I know if he hits me, I’d be able to run past him. But without him hitting me I was trapped. Obviously I was eventually able to get past him when he hit the other player in the basement with me, but with my borrowed time buff expiring he was able to down me quickly.

Is there any other way to circumvent this? It seems really shitty to me that I can be body blocked by the killer in the basement after getting unhooked and there’s just nothing I can do about it.
