Myers vs ghostface. Who's the better stalker?
I personally think they are both good, but I wanna know what you guys think.

Ghostface if you know when to lean, as Myers you waste too much time stalking against good survivors.

I agree that ghostface is better. Plus he's smaller and he can crouch to be way more stealthy. Also, going stealth mode while being looped makes for a really good mindgame.

I think Micheal is better because nobody can stop you you from stalking. Of course they can hide behind stuff, but they can’t take you out of the mode, plus Micheal Myers (In my opinion) has some of the strongest addons in the game, constantly having people exposed is so powerful and they can’t do anything about it.

I agree that Myers has some of the craziest add ons in the game, but this is going off naked killers (no perks, no add ons)

Myers. The mere fact that he CANNOT be knocked out of stealth makes him better. Also, WAY better snowball potential than Ghostie Boi.

Myers. By far. Loser Face™ is good for the memes, though.

Michael by a longshot. Nobody can break him out of stalk mode.
Samination's latest parody with the "stalk off" was funny but also accurate. Just by looking at GF for several seconds Michael won by breaking his stalk lol.

Myers has some insane add-ons; but that being said I have been leaning towards ghostface with play w/ your food and crouch add-ons lately. You fly around the map while crouched and once you get a stalk off on someone there is basically nothing they can do to stop it with a 10% or 15% move speed buff. I really, really like whispers on ghostface since it basically guarantees you will hit the first generator quickly and can come from a good angle.

His unlimited stalk potential ain't worth diddly squat since he can be easily broken out of it. Coupled with that nerf he got to make it easier to do, he is easy to break out of it. I have no problem doing it. Half the time someone on team is doing it from behind him lol.
With Michael I have no such advantage.

Myers wastes more time with his stalking, but his stalking grants him 1 minute of exposed status on everyone, faster vault speed and longer lunge range.
Ghost Face stalking is faster, especially when leaning, but he only gets a 45 seconds of exposed status on 1 survivor at a time and nothing else. Also, if you break him out of stealth, Ghost Face has a 30 seconds cooldown, which is a long cooldown if you ask me.
So I would say Myers for now, but Ghost Face is gonna get buffed against Object of Obsession with the new status effects incoming, so he might become better. But even then, GF still has a long cd on his power without add-ons.

Michael is good at endgame, while GF is not. GF is also weaker to SWFs, which matters when I pick who to play. If I get a group of SWFs, then I'd rather have michael, because my 1 hit downs aren't going to be taken away from me when playing.
That being said, I like GFs design more than Myers, but Myers is a classic design.
I do have a build that makes up for the endgame weakness of GF, in which I use Agitation/Iron Grasp/Mad Grit/NOED so that I can one hit down people who are really altruistic very quickly.

Depends how you look at it to be honest, in 1v1 and versatility ghostface wins, in over altruistic/crowd control/team gen rush late game Myers is better. There are situations where 2 people or SWF groups are constantly rushing the last gen/s and Michael can keep up where I know ghostface couldn’t, however there are early game scenarios where I can get momentum fast with ghostface.
I don’t think its ever really been a one better than the other argument, just different strengths and weaknesses.

I don't think either is better than the other.
I feel Michael has more potential for HUGE snowballs and massive power plays if done right.
Ghostface is more focused and though he can't can't snowball like Myers he can use his ability more often and potentially get more downs or at least the same amount of an average Michael but over the course of the match.
They're both stealthy but Scratched Mirror Myers is the stealthiest
I personally prefer Ghostface over Myers even though I love Michael, I just don't like how restrictive it feels with Michael to get his ability. I can get Stalk and down people fast as Ghost but with Michael I have to work hard and time it right and then utilize that time as well, if I can't find anyone in T3 then I wasted that ability and my potential later on in the match. Ghostface doesn't have those restrictions, he is a true stalker and assassin, even after he Exposes someone he is still in stealth, unlike Michael.

Michael. His power puts more pressure on the whole team when he tiers up. He also gains benefits in chases by tiering up rather than GF who is ALWAYS a default killer in terms of chase ability.
His power is never on cooldown, let alone one longer than half a gen, and doesn't rely on knowing that there's someone else 30 meters away behind a tree.
His add ons also make him better, in comparison to Ghostface who is almost always trying to lessen his garbage downsides.

I don invite the wraith comparison (Im good with wraith [Bad Word] myers, and depending on how I feel that day I could be god tier with GF) honestly I feel GF has more of a comparison to wraith since his ability to hide is about even if not sometimes better than wraith (unless wraith stands still)

Have you ever used a chewed pen, downed someone then waited for their friends to come good snowball potential in that one granted pig coined it lol

I've tried but the bastard always crawls towards me to break me out before anyone gets there lol

Run a BIG circle behind some stuff and bring deerstalker honestly its fun though to stand out in the open with an swf body just crouching repeatedly as their 3 other friends come to watch
