    As of patch 5.1.0 Spirit isn't the problem. She's literally Helen Keller with a sword when she uses her power. The problem with current Spirit is survivors being predictable, she literally has no tracking. There is no way to nerf Spirit without butchering or defeating the purpose of her kit. I'll link a my video of why you can't nerf spirits kit.

    As of keys, you will know if a survivor is bringing a key and if they switch at the last second or you don't feel like putting on Franklin's. I just slug that survivor and leave them slugged. They'll get frustrated and annoyed, but that's how it feels being a killer and having to deal with a key.

    If you didnt know about the spirit change, what did you base your opinion on?

    Are you seriously comparing a "grind to win" item that you click m1 on a magic door on the ground and are given an insta win even if you did 0 gens to an actual killer that you need to learn to use to even be good at?

    Even the most new survivor can know how to use a key, it's literally press M1 on top of the hatch.

    Not a single new survivor knows how to use spirit, I've seen even Otzdarva ######### up the phasing, and considering the meta now is hide and seek forever and they just buffed Iron Will I don't see how a full killer is even comparable to keys.

    That's assuming she isnt soundbugged. Devs didnt confirm the changes were intentional. Let alone that Spirit can still track environmental movement and scratchmarks while phasing.

    So those are gonna get fixed, that still makes Spirit problematic. IMO, they should simply remove scratchmarks from Spirit's basekit. Make it worth an addon slot in exchange of some of her absolutely broken addons.

    Spirit is far from fine. She is still a problem. Just because she is bugged, doesnt mean she's fine.

    That's like saying keys are fine, because they cannot open a hatch if more than 2 survivors are nearby the hatch due to a temporary bug.

    You want to remove sound AND scratchmarks and still think moving grass is problematic? Do you want to play against a killer or a potato?

    Oh look another spirit has not counterplay thread. Can people come up with their own opinions instead spewing the same thing their favorite streamer says? Its getting old. But I will agree keys need a change.

    She is sound bugged and BHVR confirmed it.

    I'm not saying her being bugged means she's fine. I'm simply saying that because of her sound bug and she is still doing well isn't a Spirit problem. I've played multiple matches with her current sound bugs and still get kills and survivors DC'ing, because they run predictable paths.

    If your gonna get rid of scratch marks while she's phasing you have to compensate her because your essentially nullifying her pre-phase tracking and encouraging her to fake phase so she can use her power efficently.
