    That she can deal damage at range is great, and that's also pretty much all i find great about her.

    She warns Survivors earlier than any other Killer that she's near & has reduced movement speed.

    Indoor maps are also a pretty hard hit to her.

    Most hatchet hits were aimed at a different survivor.

    Huntress is a great chase killer, but her map pressure is awful. However she can be death itself with iridescent head and the belt

    Pros:

    • Anna has a ranged ability. This already makes her insanely powerful.
    • It's a known fact that Anna doesn't throw hatchets, but instead throws refrigerators. Combined with dedicated servers, she can get ridiculous hits.

    Cons:

    • Anna's lullaby gives her away from a further distance, but it's no longer directional, so this is pretty minor.
    • Anna has a slower speed than normal, countered by her ranged attack.
    • Those same gigantic hitboxes the hatchets have are the same hitboxes that hit obstacles when they shouldn't.
    • Anna's biggest weakness is her Hatchet count, requiring her to reload at lockers, which can be detrimental in the middle of a chase.

    I gave Anna a 7 because the weaknesses she has don't overshadow her strengths. She's only just at a 7, but she still outperforms many others.

    I've faced some insanely skilled Huntress players that could nail their hatchets from across the map. So yeah.

    She can delete survivors who don't exactly know what they're doing but as soon as a smart survivor goes against her she can't do much as she has 110% movement speed so she is easier to loop. Also if they loop her around certain objects she can't hatchet them.
