  • That she can deal damage at range is great, and that's also pretty much all i find great about her.

    She warns Survivors earlier than any other Killer that she's near & has reduced movement speed.

    Indoor maps are also a pretty hard hit to her.

  • Most hatchet hits were aimed at a different survivor.

  • Huntress is a great chase killer, but her map pressure is awful. However she can be death itself with iridescent head and the belt

  • Pros:

    • Anna has a ranged ability. This already makes her insanely powerful.
    • It's a known fact that Anna doesn't throw hatchets, but instead throws refrigerators. Combined with dedicated servers, she can get ridiculous hits.

    Cons:

    • Anna's lullaby gives her away from a further distance, but it's no longer directional, so this is pretty minor.
    • Anna has a slower speed than normal, countered by her ranged attack.
    • Those same gigantic hitboxes the hatchets have are the same hitboxes that hit obstacles when they shouldn't.
    • Anna's biggest weakness is her Hatchet count, requiring her to reload at lockers, which can be detrimental in the middle of a chase.

    I gave Anna a 7 because the weaknesses she has don't overshadow her strengths. She's only just at a 7, but she still outperforms many others.

  • I've faced some insanely skilled Huntress players that could nail their hatchets from across the map. So yeah.

  • She can delete survivors who don't exactly know what they're doing but as soon as a smart survivor goes against her she can't do much as she has 110% movement speed so she is easier to loop. Also if they loop her around certain objects she can't hatchet them.
