Spirit isn't OP...
Alright hear me out before I get a lynch mob of angry people trying to kill me. To summarize what I'm about to say, its the way the power effects the survivors senses that makes her strong. She takes away what survivors are meant to do from day one of playing the game, aka you see a killer and go to a pallet. Whether you realize it or not you've been conditioned to follow a formula every game. The two killers that change that formula aka Nurse and Spirit are continuously complained about, more so than any other killer. Now while I'm not saying that they shouldn't change some small things on Spirit (Prayer Beads, Grass Moving, Phasing Sound), the majority of her power is actually perfectly balanced and finely tuned by Behaviour. You need to get out of this mindset that Spirit is op, she brings it down to a game of skill, a game of reflexes and senses. She changes up the formula of the game and give a breathe for fresh air into an otherwise stale formula. Another aspect that seems to demoralize survivors is the fact you can't escape her in a chase, if she wants you she will get you. Thats a positive thing, you should feel a sense of dread and fear when being chased by a KILLER. Especially when you have no form of defending yourself in the traditional sense (aka guns and knives). Remember this game isn't a 1v1, its 1v4. This doesn't just go for survivors, killers also have to remember this. Thats why at high ranks typically all of my escapes vs a Spirit have been just doing gens as quickly as possible. The longer your in the game with her the less likely you are to escape. So in conclusion stop dcing and crying about her and try to do something about it. If you have any arguments that are strong post them and I'll try to reply.
Side Note: Rank 1 Killer and Survivor.
