There are way too many Huntresses running around

It's every other match even though there are 35 Killers in the game. She has never taken that much skill. But now, she's so broken and it's boring. Why does a player on mnk with 120 fps need 7 hatchets at basekit, and 10 when using specific add-ons? This is easy mode. If anybody doubts it, where's the former Huntress player that transitioned over to Fortnite or Valorant and played it competitively? Cracked players are cracked at every other game. That's not the case with this Killer. She is flat-out boring.

    Interesting am strangely getting more clowns than her, strong as she gotten since she has more hatches with the update I do not tend to get very many, lets trade cause I hate clown, he is far more annoying to me than she is lol.

    I'd put Huntress in the top 10 highest skill requiring killers in the game. Not sure what makes you think she's low skill.

    I also rarely see Huntress. I think I've seen 1 in the last 50 games I've played.

    What's the evidence that she doesn't take much skill?

    (1) She's likely the most popular Killer in the game; Wesker competes with her. What is difficult is never popular. (2) She's the only Killer that attracts many streamers that main a specific Killer. I can name LilithOmen as a Blight main and gtvel as a Hillbilly main. Otherwise, killer main streamers choose a variety of Killers or they're Huntress mains. (3) Players that are cracked at a multiplayer game is cracked at, more or less, all multiplayer games. 72hrs is cracked at Fortnite, Apex, TMC, this game, etc. Where are all these streamers maining Huntress transitioning over to other games to dominate? (4) Her hitbox just requires to be "good enough". I play PS4. My most played Killer is Deathslinger, he takes more skill than her. On Survivor, I usually have around 80 ping. Huntress thrives on that.

    "What is difficult is never popular"

    Factually incorrect as we have proof of many higher skill killers that are in the top played killers stats. This is also just common knowledge across many games.

    "She's the only Killer that attracts many streamers that main a specific
    Killer. I can name LilithOmen as a Blight main and gtvel as a Hillbilly
    main. Otherwise, killer main streamers choose a variety of Killers or
    they're Huntress mains."

    What does this literally have to do with anything? How does this prove your point at all? So if a killer is popular among streamers it must be easy? What?

    "Players that are cracked at a multiplayer game is cracked at, more or less, all multiplayer games."

    Factually untrue again. There are dozens of different genres in the "multiplayer" facet that are completely different types of games. So if one person is amazing at a fighting game they're also amazing at a survival game or mario kart? Those are completely unrelated skills.

    "Her hitbox just requires to be "good enough"."

    Her hitbox is so large because she has such a long wind up and a slow hatchet that's dodgeable. She's also ridiculously loopable.

    "On Survivor, I usually have around 80 ping. Huntress thrives on that. "

    If you've played Huntress you'd understand that ping can hurt her just as much as it helps her.

    None of these points you've made prove anything about Huntress being easy.

    "My most played Killer is Deathslinger, he takes more skill than her."

    This is the only thing you've said that is true and I agree with. I do think DS takes more skill than Huntress.

    Nurse and Hillbilly are free and more difficult than Huntress. Trapper is free but doesn't get results. She gets results and she's easy.

    There are way easier killers, but if your standard is Billy and Nurse, then sure…

    Trapper is fun until you play against decent survivors, then not so much. I don't think Huntress is too strong, she didn't need a buff tho.

    If you think only hard killers should be decent, then there will never be any killer variety.
