Guide on how to avoid Michael Myers

[Croquedead]

So yeah...people complain way too much about the 4th killer on the Tier List. I mean seriously, he's not high at all:

S
Nurse

A
Hillbilly

B
Trapper
Myers

C
Wraith
Hag

So I decided to share what I do against him to the new people that just can't avoid him for some reasons. OK, let's go.

1-Look around you
This is very basic and this is a thing you should do all the time. At the start of the game, you don't necessary know who you're up against. Don't take any chance and act like if it was Myers until you know. This is made so you can avoid the stalk as long as you can. So, while doing a gen, look around you, especially windows if there are some. If you see Myers, go to step 2.

2-Run around objects and far away
Myers found you first. He may have got a hit on you if he turned around a corner, but that's no big deal as you can run far away to avoid any other contact against him. Myers now has two choices: go after you or stalk you. If he goes after you, run. At Evil Within 1, Myers can't outrun you, so keep moving forward, don't use pallets for nothing and just go. If you can, lose him by going into corn or around objects. If he stalks you, go behind something to block the lign of sight so he has to go after you instead. Keep him at Evil Within 1 as long as you can. If you lose him, great! Go heal yourself if needed. Once he's at Evil Within 2, go to step 3.

3-Evil Within 2
OK so now he's more dangerous as he does outrun you. The thing about Michael Myers is that he's just your regular Wraith in terms of juking. Sure, he can stalk you and he has a smaller terror radious, but at this point, perks do work against him and stalking won't help him chase you. Once he's Evil Within 3, go to step 4.

4-Evil Within 3
There's one thing to do here: hide. He got a big terror radious, so you'll know he's coming. Hiding in lockers works good here as he already one shots people and EW3 Myers rarely checks them. Just don't do it when he's too close as he might hear you. If he hooks someone, don't go for the save just yet unless he's on someone else. If he sees you, the chase is still the same as EW2, except he got a big lunge, so be careful and drop pallets earlier if he tries to go through them. After the minute is gone, he goes back to EW2 and you go back to step 3.

Perks

There are a few perks that I need to talk about that work well against him.

Self Care
Of course, it works well against all killers. It is especially good when you need to heal after the free hit he might get from EW1.

Sprint Burst
Of course, another perk that works well against everyone. This time, you catch Myers of guard when he tries to get his first hit on EW1 by running all the sudden, making him miss thanks to his terrible lunge.

Iron Will
Amazing against Myers. After the free hit he might get in EW1, you can hide around objects once you lost his line of sight making him lose you as he won't hear you.

Premonition/Spine Chill
OK so these two, I wouldn't rely on them as it doesn't work on EW1. However, they are really good against EW2, completely negating the smaller terror radius.

I really hope this helps. Stop whining about him being OP, he's not. Try these tips and get a strategy. With time, you'll figure out how he works and see the real treats of this world: Nurse and Hillbilly.
