Is Hag OP, Balanced, or Trash?

Yet again. Yeah I think Hag is balanced yes camping can make her horrendous but that's less Hag and more the player. Big maps can be mean to a Hag by giving her hard to defend three gens. And one survivor can harass a Hag by always tripping the edge of her traps where she can't lunge to forcing her to often game like a no power 4.4 against her. And you can't guess every spot a survivor can run too. And she's another killer were few can reach her full potential. Still strong however one hook in your web and survivors who forget to crouch is easy. And most maps can have a manageable three gen for Hag. And Hags who can put traps in unexpected spots and teleport fast will be a problem.

    Hag is a balanced killer imo, because she is strong but smart survivors can play around her power. However, an issue she has is her ability to camp hooks so efficiently. That’s not a balance issue, that’s just annoyance.

    I would give her a little nerf, specifically the one that Otzdarva mentioned in one of his videos, so that unhooking a survivor isn't the crouching olympics. The idea was something like, if you unhook someone without activating the traps near, they deactivate for a couple of seconds so that you don't have to crouch your way in AND out. But other than that, I feel she's fairly balanced ---strong, but balanced.

    Hag is completely balanced, and the devs should take inspiration from her when buffing Trapper.

    The only thing that would make her OP in my book is her teleportation distance add-on & Make Your Choice.

    Perhaps one of the best killers every created and thought. Very easy to balance, very very good against comp players, just needs a buff against flashlights, which destroy her. Medkits need a balancement overall because even against her are also very countering. her add-ons need a revisit. Bodyblock hag is just made to harass and ruin the fun, remove it

    Good survivors bait traps, flashlight them, stalk you to see where they are, activate them when you pick someone up and use team coordination to avoid them.

    Regardless, despite though I play her little, I am most successful on her and have beaten some 7000+ hour pro survivors with her. From my subjective experience, compared to the other killers, I say she is OP.

    I'd say she is annoying to play against, however not op. She does take thought and skill and has plenty of counters, flashlights almost being a killer.

    She is very annoying to go against, But she isn't OP. She takes skill to play and has 0 chase potential (Because of her slower movement speed). I'd say she's pretty balanced.

    I say balanced because she is not OP. She is very boring and frustrating to go against. I don't mean this in a salty survivor way of "boring", but it really is. You have to just guess where her traps are and disarm them whenever you can. If she places most of them, then you are kind of screwed because if you use anything you will get hit.

    Hag games seem to end with survivors getting VERY FEW points because many have been slugged for most of the game and few chase points.

    Survivor play around hag does not reward points. This is an issue. The games are also drawn out and if you are slugged, are boring AF.

    Survivor play around hag are all the things that people COMPLAIN about (the crouching, the slow pace of the game (for survivors slugged or watching the crouch parade), the camping, the SLUGGING).

    We ridicule survivors for having URBAN EVASION and bringing flash lights into matches BUT then say "just use URBAN" when talking about going against a HAG.

    I'd like to see more points awarded for being slugged and maybe for popping HAG traps. Anything to have the survivor scoring reflect the play against hag.

    I think Hag is balanced but it would be more fun and fair to go against if she couldn't put her traps so close to a hooked survivor.
