Why was I the obsession?

I was in a game versus Huntress and was the Obsession but the Killer kept attacking me fairly often so I was just saying ######### because as you can see I have no perks that would cause this and neither does the Killer. There's one Survivor that has Decisive Strike but why would I be chosen as the obsession in that case? Is this a bug?

    Someone picked "Decisive Strike". You became the obsession because you were unlucky ^^'

    Unlucky? That's free survival points if they remain obsession on either death or escape!

    Obsession perks cause the game to randomly select someone as the obsession at the start of the game. Some perks decrease your chance to be the obsession, others increase it. The only perk that doesn't spawn an obsession at the start is Nemesis I believe.

    AFAIK, DS decreases your chance to be the obsession, meaning it was a toss up between you and the other 2 survivors.
