Spirit is an unskillful killer, change my mind.

Why does no one understand that Spirit isnt ,,braindead"

She have to mindgame alot and she also have to ,,guess" where the survivors are.

And dont come with the ,,she gets a free hit for standing still" #########

Thats a simple mindgame and if you fall for it, it worked. Since when is mindgaming ,,skillless"?

Adept and stop complaining because you cant handle it.

Well, pretty much. Spirit needs zero skill to use effectively. You get the 4k handed to you by the game for free. Even if you're completely incompetent.

Well, yes, but no.

I agree that mastering a killer can take a lot of time.

I disagree that survivors dont need a skill. Solo survivor mode is unpredictable and a lot harder than killer mode. Other survivors can make it impossible to get out alive.

Both sides are pretty casual compared to other games. xD

If you manage to win default mindgames, spirit mindgames wouldn't be much harder. The only difference is that in normal mindgames it's the killer who has to be unpredictable and in Spirit mindgames it's the survivor who has to be unpredictable. If Spirit doesn't read your moves, she'll miss her haunting over and over again.

Write your essay for me, I'm too lazy to.

I mean, I would contest OP, but it's obvious at this point that even my 1k hours with plenty of experience in both sides isn't convincing them.

So I'm not wasting my breath.

I despise Tru. Don't expect me to link his vid.

Knowing Spirit is easy. Mastering Spirit is one of the hardest things you can do in the game.

Why JUST NOW have people been saying "sPirIT dOeSnT tAKe aNY sKiLL"? Oh yeah.

Because people before now weren't delusional and actually knew Spirit was a difficult killer with a very high ceiling.

And yes, there is a skill curve. There isn't really a question about that. That's not a debate, that's fact.

I'm just gonna give my opinion as someone who mains her in red-ranks.

First off, all Killers require some form of skill to play, that is an actual fact. Knowing how to use the power to the best of it's ability is something that's required by all Killers. The difference is the ways that you have to be skillful. A killer like Huntress requires mainly mechanical skill to be able to consistently land hatchets, where as Trapper requires mainly predictions to have survivors step in traps. Both require skill, but in different ways.

With Spirit, she requires both to a degree. Mechanical skill to be able to use her power effectively since you can't see or come into contact with survivors, thus you are mainly relying on things like scratchmarks, footsteps, grass moving and/or breathing against immersive and/or decent survivors. But she requires predictions as well, such as when someone has dropped a pallet early and walked away, when someone has doubled back, or when they're running Iron-will and have no footsteps, breathing, or grunts of pain. She also requires the same skill every Killer needs, game knowledge. When to commit, what gen is likely being worked on. How to split aggro, who has what. Things of that nature.

Now, moving away from what I personally believe are facts to what I will concretely say are my personal opinions. Spirit is one of the easier killers to learn, but one of the harder Killers to master.

She's similar to Nurse, to the point I think a baby Spirit is as easy, if not easier, to bully than a baby Nurse. A good Spirit, can still be tricked fairly often, even when injured. Hell, I quite often phase past a survivor who I've hit, tried to chase in phase, but didn't realise had started to walk or run towards me, meaning I have to leave my power and catch up as a 110% killer. Whereas a Spirit with thousands of hours will likely only be tricked once, if at all, by the same thing.

If you aren't lying, show me. I'll shut up if you actually aren't lying.

And not all children come off as hostile. That is a false generalization.
