It’s time to let us opt out of playing against Spirits

Spirit is really good but I wouldn't say she's that easy to play. So I wouldn't call her a free win just for picking the character.

When facing Tombstone Myers my main objective in game becomes not to be moried. Just that. There isn't any circunstance that can force me to be more than 10 metters distant from a locker no matter what xD.
Usually these Myers get so pissed off that when u go in a locker they start hitting it with m1 repeteadly lmao.
1 -
Yeah I mean
I know that's the 'counter' to it but I feel so bad for doing it. Like I don't wanna get mori'd
0 -
I'll assume common survivor mistakes are still making her difficult.
0 -
The thing I don't like is toxic for the meta!

just minecraft yourself dude, if devs ignore the issue and don't give us another lawful option
0 -
u assume u never pick spirit dont u ?

Competitive game? hahahahahahahahahahahahahah nice joke

They’ve had years to make keys more balanced and fun, and have done next to nothing. I’m tired of loading into a match, only to go against someone who has 10 hours in the game, because they’re playing an item that takes zero skill. It’s just easy mode, which should not be in a competitive game.
Let us have fun please, instead of forcing us to go against this garbage!

people play spirit?

Its not that, spirit is dumb and there is no much survivors can do against her since you get outplayed no matter what you do if said spirit is good, wich is of course, wrong. she needs major changes especially to her addons wich are busted... needs to be tweak down quite dramatically.
1 -
She's not a killer I enjoy using, still fun to go against though. Leveled her for the perks and haven't touched her since.

"Killer mains having fun for once"
oh god forbid..
2 -
That is why I am not allowed to have fun? It is forbidden?
1 -
It was sarcasm.. the OP is clearly a salty surv main whining about Spirit. calling for nerfs when she actually takes a lot of skill to use..
As a Oni/Myers main i can't for the life of me play her.
3 -
Because its proven to work. Just look at Undying. First the devs made totem spawns more obvious. Then they nerfed it + buffed totem finding perks.
Ironically, very few people use totem finding perks, because its so easy to find those glowing beacons. Since they spawn next to gens.
6 -
She is as (un)balanced as Iron Will.
But somehow people think one is fine and the other one is toxic.
5 -
I get it you don’t know how to play survivor
9 -
I'd opt out of playing against Twins, I'd much rather play against a Spirit.
0 -
Same lol
2 -
lol pig is literally one of my bottom 3 killers to go against, maybe look at someone’s post history before making stupid comments
0 -
Don’t care at all as a solo player. Using SWF as a ‘got you’ argument really doesn’t work
0 -
But they haven’t buffed keys recently, whereas they have buffed spirit
0 -
Considering I’ve been with and against some of the best players in the community, I’d say my MMR is fine :)
0 -
Anyone who says spirit is hard to play is instantly discredited, any experienced player knows that’s complete and utter bull
0 -
There is a way to opt out of playing against spirit.
Just don't play dbd
9 -
There is no problem in someones opinion. There is no correct opinion in anything
2 -
Thats not a valid reason since i think newer players should have a chance too
0 -
But sometimes opinions are facts
0 -
Thats wrong. Keys were buffed by adding hatch offerings and Spirit was nerfed when they nerfed Stridor (since Spirit is the only killer where this perk was useful).
4 -
That wasn’t recently. Spirit was buffed with the slow vault nerf
0 -
That also wasn´t recently.
3 -
If you're being overplayed by a 10 hours Spirit, I have bad news for you...
9 -
Thats not true
2 -
I understand the frustration the venting is coming from but real talk that would be such a game killer if people could opt out of matches based on who is killer or what perks survivors are running
0 -
As I said the killer can hear me slow vault the window. Unless I have iron will it doesn’t matter what I do because the spirit can track everything you do by sound or sight.
Good spirits do waste their phase. They use it in short bursts so the cooldown is minimised and the penalty for messing up a phase is negligible
2 -
That was literally in the last few months
0 -
Hyperbole is a great thing! I’m a console player I can’t even see hours
0 -
I agree but an exception should be made for spirit if the devs love her too much to change her.
1 -
So was the Stridor nerf. You can´t say one wasn´t recently, while claiming that the other was.
5 -
Because a lot of baby survivors are complaining about her. And devs love baby survivors, and don't like when matches become "unfun" for them.
Maybe you can prove it personally and play a series of games on her? On stream or in recording of a series of matches, where it will be seen that nothing is cut there. And of course it would be nice if you first raised your MMR on her so that you come across competent survivors.
4 -
Not a comprtitive game.
Get out of here, stretched res user.
1 -
She went from easy S tier killer to an easy S tier killer, excuse me if I don’t think the change of one perk was enough.
0 -
I don’t used stretched res, I’m on console lol
Also, I don’t think someone using a blight picture should accuse anyone of being sweaty
0 -
My build is BBQ / Shadowborn and I win at 4 stacks. Then let everyone leave so I maintain a low MMR.
But call me sweaty dudah.
1 -
You don’t even know how MMR works for killers, so let’s start there. MMR is not based just on individual killer performance as promised. It’s based on overall killer + performance, although seems to be heavily biased towards the former. I’ve almost never played blight, and recently decided to give him a go, and all my games were high MMR SWF players bodyblocking and sabotaging.
Also, not sure why I need to become a streamer for to prove a killer in a video game is easy. You can be the judge of it!
0 -
You are excused. But still wrong. Noob spirits can be easily beaten. Even decent ones can be beaten with some experience. If you fail to a 10 hour player, then the issue isn´t on the killers side of the screen.

I used her for a game last night (Just her time in rotation is all) with Corrupt, Pop, Nurses, BBQ. One survivor quit when I down her second time (Least I got my BBQ stack already) and after killing the 3rd I found Jake and downed him. Dropped him off at gate, Closed hatch, and let him wiggle off to open gate. He opened it but would not leave the entity killed him. After he sends me a message "Thx but ######### spirit",
Point is? Survivors already opt out against spirit a large majority of the time screwing over their team and the Spirit.
2 -
Same happend to Freddy. People disconnected/suicided against him, back when he was released. Which blew his "kill" rate out of proportion.
4 -
I am begining to wonder how much of the Spirits power is people quitting out and leaving her with a 3v1 situation.
Sure thing, Spirit with Pop/Ruin and a good set of headphones is a pain in the ass but her winrate must be inflatet by those who quit out and sell out their team. She is the pinacle of Sun Tzus phrase "... supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting." for that reason. Kinda funny for me.
I will not say that Spirit is "fun" because that is highly subjective. Also Spirit is not "fair" or "balanced" in any way. However she would be less of a pain if people would not just quit out against her...
