Is Myers worth getting? And if so, what perks are good on him?
I think he looks really cool and he seems pretty effective, but I'm not sure.

Michael Myers, alias The Shape is actually one of the best killers you can get with an DLC (if not the single best one). he has a powerful power, many different playstyles, great add ons and is all in all very unique.
as a build i would recommend you always run Monito and Abuse (The Doctor teachable), as it reduces his Terror Radius by 8 meters, allowing him to have literally no terrorradius when in tier 1, a very small one in tier 2 and a hags terrorradius in tier 3.
he is very fun to play and his 3 unique perks "play with your food", "save the best for last" and "dying light" are alyso very unique, introducing a whole new feature, the "obsession feature". 2 out of the 3 perks reward you for keeping your obsession alive, while one, dying light actually rewards you for killing the obsession early on, by giving huge debuffs to every survivor.
my conclusion: go and get him.
hes a solid killer considered A rank, right around hag and spirit. His perks are solid for any mid tier killer, but they are all obsession perks. He's also one of the strongest farmers in the game with farming perks or add ons.
For normal games: Ruin, Moniter and Abuse, Nurses Calling, BBQ and Chili
For farming games: Ruin, Thrill of the Hunt, Distressing, BBQ and Chili
M&A along with NC and a dead rabbit add on and you are good to go.
The rest is personal preference.
Since he is a simple M1 killer things like FD, RM or STBFL work well with him.
Since I want to have more chase potential I run End+Spirit Fury on him.
I also dislike the usual meta perks; Ruin and BBQ.
Ruin is destroyed to easy and Myers is not fast enough to make good use of BBQ; unless you want run it just to increase your BPs.
Myers is fun to play at low and mid ranks, but at high ranks he can struggle to even reach EW2.
He's fun and can have serious jumpscare potential, so I would recommend him for that.
Just don't run ALL 3 of his perks at once unless you are trying to adept him. They are the most contradicting perks on any Killer. Period.
