Is Huntress THAT Bad?
Context:
For all of the games that I've played today, yesterday, and the day before that (yes, I mean all of them) there is always at least one person that suicides on hook when they realize that I'm a Huntress. They'll either sit at the hook and point at it, loop me badly so I catch them on purpose, or just plain go AFK/DC.

Is Huntress SO bad that survivors in rank 1 cannot deal with a Huntress that knows how to throw a hatchet? I know that dedicated servers are junk and mess up hatchet hitboxes, but both sides suffer from that and it shouldn't be a reason to not play a killer I like.

People will disconnect against any killer they don't like. I've had 4 man SWFs disconnect against me as Myers in the hospital (normal Myers), and as Doctor in the swamp (old doctor)

I've also had people disconnect against me for various reasons as every single killer, including two that disconnected against me when I was playing the clown, and one that disconnected after my first hook 3 generators in.
be nice =) Mar 19, 2020 @ 11:22am

Saying she needs no skill is such a 'survivor main' thing to say. We ALL know her hatchet hitboxes are a bit larger than they should be, but you can still loop/juke her if you know how to play the game. Maybe play Huntress a few games if you don't think you need to aim, predict, etc.
She also has low speed, which means you constantly have to keep up pressure; I'd love to see you do that with no skill.

That's like disconnecting and screwing over your whole team because you can't deal with the something you don't like. They can be a bit stupid, but they were JUST NERFED TO BE SMALLER on survivors that are couching, healing, or doing gens.

Just had another game where EVERYONE decided to suicide a minute in because I was Huntress.

I wouldn't stereotype a killer because of a few experiences you have. Especially on a killer that literally loses if she camps, unless the survivors are dumb and go after them

Not fun to play against

isnt actually bait is it so hard to grasp that she is OP and not fun to play against since she can hit you when its not even close since the hitboxes are so big.

Yes. It is. Because old Nurse and Spirit existed, and for a long time everyone could deal with them. Survivors have gotten significantly less skilled at the game as Killers were nerfed and their jobs were made easier. Huntress is easy enough to avoid. Duck around things, dip behind cover. Most importantly, break LOS. Like old Nurse.

I'd LOVE to see you guys playing against old Omega and 5 Blinks Nurse. Because good Survivor players COULD evade them. Not forever, they'd usually end up getting caught if the Nurse player was also good. But they COULD be evaded for awhile.

It's really just the hitboxes that seem to be an issue, though iri heads and belt is a bit OP, can't really blame survivors for not playing when they see that sorta trash being used.

I'd agree, but if the hitboxes were like... actually the size of the hatchet, Huntress would be completely unusable. She'd need Iri Heads and belt baseline to even be considered dangerous.

yeah very easy to avoid huntress when she can hit you behind a wall

I would stop spreading false info, it’s impossible for a hatchet to do that unless you’re being lag switched. A corner, though? Because of dedicated servers, that’s possible but rare

Her hitbox should be a bit smaller than it currently is, but I don’t think its possible to even make it like that since they updated all hitboxes to be domes.

So yeah, still dunno why people feel the urge to kill themselves and ruin everyone’s game because they can’t handle dodging a hatchet. Saying you can’t dodge it is just plain false, and as long as you have a brain you can mind games to extend loops. She has tons of spots where she cannot fight a loop unless the survivor makes a mistake, and even then people don’t want to play against her because they think most hits are unfair.
