How to counter Mindgames as survivor?

[FXScorpio]

How do you counter mindgames and especially the red glow mingame as a survivor? 2000 hrs and still suck as a survivor (more of a killer main). I can easily loop the killer when i can see him and his red glow but when he starts to mindgame i die

sometimes its a 50/50 chance as to whether or not you guessed right as to whether the killer was actually going around or gonna double back around a wall you cant see. dont feel too bad

set the graphics on low and you'll see the red stain through walls

and there's no counter for it (assuming you aren't trolling) you just gotta be smarter

There are rare instances like that where sitting at the pallet is better than taking a hit.

You need to guess, sometimes run away from pallet/tile is better decision then staying over it.

predict the mindgame

run away from the structure while seeing the killer moonwalk

If the killer is a Pepega and starts moonwalking on every loop, then just start running to the next loop and hope that they are still trying to mindgame you on the previous one, after you see them do that, you can run even further.
You have to try and position your camera so that you can either see just their red glow or their model or both. If you are on a loop where you can't do either of these things, you just have to guess, unfortunately.

Take distance.

I am 50-50 survivor killer main.

For survivors the best you can do when they start taking mind games is to take distance mind games. There is nothing more annoying for killer than that.

For example, there is the simple loop when 1 pallet and 1 open way(similarly looking to jungle gym) and there you can literally do stuff like run around it run around it, then spice it with some walk behind the further wall, then start running away from that pallet to another.

Had not a single mindgamer hooked on with that.
Just repeat the loop for 1 less time you actually could and run away. it confuses them.
