Myers’ Power vs Corn Fields
So, I’m fairly new playing the game, I got Rotten Fields while using Myers, and oh boi, it was fun not being able to use my power because Corn overpowers Evil Within
So, do you have any tips about how to play him in that situation? Should I just accept... defeat?
Also, I think it will be easier to just buff his stalking, just “ignoring the corn”, sounds cool as hell stalking them through the fields without they even noticing, while still having to deal with a huge map with no mobility

when your in tier 1, try moving on the outsides of the map and stay hidden. dont attack, but instead stalk. you can go for gengrabs, if you are feeling secure about yourself, but never, NEVER go for a chase while in tier 1. ever. dont even think about it. at all.
tier 2 is just like a normal M1 killer, but with a decreased TR, which (combined with dead rabbit and M&A) can easily be used to sneak up on survivors and get an early first hit. in this mode you dont need to be stealthy anymore. run through the middle of the map to get from gen to gen as fast as possible and stalk them when they didnt see you coming. 99% your power and pop it as soon as you feel like going on a killing spree.
now, you mentioned corn aswell. here is how i would do it: stay hidden and stalk out of the shadows. if they dont know they are getting stalked, they wont be able to use corn to block your vision. if they uncovered you, leave them and go for someone else who is not aware of your presense. again: do NOT commit to a chase. another possibility would be to find an elevated area and look at the cornfield from above. farm maps have these huge red engines (mowers i think) standing around, you can use them to stalk survivors longer and increase your overall overview of the cornfield.
i hope these help you out in the future!

When you get better at the game the corn becomes a minor nuisance and you will track survivors in the corn like a pro. It's all about game sense and a good eye for details.

As a Myers main I hate getting the farm maps for this very reason. Plus I suffer from corn blindness often.

Somehow the Corn can "stalk" better than Myers XD

I have 1,300 hours in the game and I can't approve this.
The corn is just bad.

I go up against a lot of killers who can find and kill me in the corn. Maybe they have better monitors or better eyesight than you, I dont know.
I also play Myers in the corn, it's tough but doable, but I'm only going against low rank survivors who probably don't know how to hide.

Yeah "corn blindness" is real but with practice you can get better at tracking. You also have good/bad days or play against specific skins that make it harder to see.
Basically time/experience will help and the rest is up to your current luck/focus.

I think I’ve dealt with this for so long I’ve adapted, if close enough you can still get partial stalk but it’s not worth it, I think it was mentioned above but stick to the clear view sites near the outer gens until tier 2 at least, by this point you have a better chance at chasing and if they do decide to go to the corn for safety you can still track and hit them like any other killer. It’s using those moments before they get to the corn that matter the most, sometimes going to high ground works but I personally avoid this because it tells them where I am and which direction I’m going, not a fan.
Most survivors can’t afford to spend the whole match in the corn because that’s not where most of the gens are, you’ll catch them off guard at some point and have chances for stalking and tier 3 regardless of if they use the corn. It’s only really a problem early match tier 1 once you get better at tracking and corralling survivors to certain areas through gen pressure.
