Hitting Survivors with hatchets as The Huntress forms the basis of many Daily Rituals and challenges. However, this skill can also greatly improve your performance as a Killer, so it’s worth learning. Below we’ve listed several tips that will help you make the most of easy opportunities for hitting Survivors with hatchets, which should help you demolish any challenges in your way.

Survivors love to juke Killers, and with The Huntress, they try to juke the hatchet throws. They’ll do this by turning one way, fooling you into thinking they’ll run in that direction, then swiftly switching and going another way. Hold onto your hatchet if you think a Survivor is trying to juke you. There’s no sense in wasting it. Watch Survivors as they run away from you and when you see them switch direction, punish it. Some Killers even throw to the opposite side of a Survivor if they think they’re about to try to juke them, which works a treat when you get it right.

Another form of this behavior is the window juke, which is specific to The Huntress. Survivors try to bait the Killer into throwing the hatchet through a window by appearing as though they’re about to vault through it. In reality, they’ll run to one side and hope you miss the shot. Expect this, and make sure
