Need advice: How to counter 360?

Greetings, everyone!

Whenever I play as Legion, I suffer a lot due to my poor abiliity to counter 360 degrees hit dodge by experienced Survivors. Needless to say, I get outplayed and lose all of my power (because ballance). I wonder if there is a consistent method to counter such dodges. Please, give me an advice.

    1. Get really close to them before swinging. "Autoaim" should hit them that way.
    2. Expect which way they will try to spin in.

    The problem with that is due to the game's absolutely awful FoV I lose them from my sight entirely when I get too close to them and they start to 360 dodge. I end up having to step back just to get them in my FoV again.

    If they begin to spin to the left, most likely they will go back to the right to throw you off, so lunge early as to not get sucked into the auto-aim void while anitcipating their direction. Or step back a very tiny amount with the spin so you see their movement all the way and just swipe instead of holding the lunge.

    Sorry but there really isn't a ton of advice or steps, it really is just 'hit them'. Just look at them and hit, follow them with your camera.

    My best tip is to sidestep. When they start the turning, sidestep with them instead of turning camera. Even if they juke you a little, you have a good chance of bodyblocking them when they try to get behind you and you dont lose them on screen.

    Its probably the best thing I've noticed to use. Once I saw killers doing it to me, it went straight into my "how to stop your 360 bullshit" book.

    Following with camera is why 360s work. You look one way, they go the other. Sidestep them. Block with your body and they cant get behind you.

    Dunno, that's what I do and I've never had any trouble with them

    Step back for a second just before you swing. They tend to run into it from my experience.

    Try waiting for a second or two before hitting them. You might get a hit after they've already finished spinning.

    It's not guaranteed but it's useful to do that against Dead Hards anyway.

    Just stand still, like everyone else. Its stupidly simple.
