The Devs have completely ruined their game- Edited
I made a post yesterday that the ruin change has ruined the game. I got some feedback and would like to make some clarifications.
When I made the post I had just been utterly annihilated by Rank 1 SWF. So there was a little bias. My issues are mostly targeted at SWF. The ruin change, although bad, isn't horrible against solo survivors. It's the SWF that get rushes me out of existence that is "irritating", as the devs say now. I am hoping this is the first stage of rebalancing SWF with the rest of the players. If this isn't, I can't imagine this being a good change. All I had last post were people saying I suck because I couldn't handle the change. Am I crazy? This is again, directed at SWF rank 1's, which I seem to always go against. What do you guys think?

The ruin change buffs solo survivor a bit while actually making ruin have an effect on rank 1 SWF's. Ruin is now better vs these teams, regardless as to whether or not it stays up very long.

I've gone against many SWFs in the red ranks as well and honestly I usually get at least two kills or one worst case scenario, I never relied on ruin so I don't know about you bud but you must be doing something wrong if you can't get at least one or two kills. Perhaps you're committing too much to the chases or you're not applying enough pressure by injuring people.

Seems like a buff for all survivors. If anything it is weaker against SWF teams because they can tell their teammates they are being forced off a gen and their teammate can hop on it.

For a good killer, it's a nerf to survivors vs them assuming the totem stays up for longer than 16 seconds.
A good killer (on the maps that aren't the size of the Earth itself) will have much more reward in the form of bought time with the new ruin if they're good at exerting map pressure. Old ruin didn't give pressure except to potato solo survivors.

Old Ruin nullified Great Skill Checks. So it even slowed down experienced survivors. New Ruin is almost a QOL totem where you don't have to kick the gens. Even at tier 3 it only regresses at half the speed a single survivor repairs it.
