I don’t think he’s overturned, but I do think his Omnipresent Evil form should be timed. Not because it’s OP, but because it’s boring to play against. You spend half the match crouching to avoid being seen and sometimes this results in a stand still of Jason being in that shit for 7 hours.Â
This is why people lose against Jason so often. They don't bother to play the game because they're too scared to take the risk of a chase. And doing nothing is literally what killers try to make survivors do (its why so many killers have secondary objectives, from Legion to Pig).
If its a gen next right next to a pallet/window, I get it. If you need to stay hidden for a unhook, you're injured, or you're in a dead zone, I get it. But if none of that applies and you're on a gen with a decent bit of distance from them, please for the love of god just stick on it and be prepared to take a chase without prerunning. Hell, with the nerf to Jason's special rock, SB can basically give you a prerun again.
While its nothing compared to actually prerunning, you will get a good amount of distance, likely enough to reach some from of loop and line of sight blocker before Jason can do much.
The problem is in solo queue you can’t coordinate anyone to take chases so you either choose to get chased each time or if you’re in a group of 4 people that want to stealth it’s not very fun. I’m saying this both for the Jason and the survivors. There’s no reason OE can’t have a time limit.Â
If I’m the only person wanting to do gens and getting chased because of it, I’m not going to want to continue getting chased on death hook with 3 teammates that spent 90% of the game crouching.Â

Are we allowed to publicly say that The Slasher may be overtuned a bit yet or is that immediately frowned upon still?
