I hate how I have to play this game now.

With how fast gens go, the ridiculously huge, window/pallet saturated maps, and the ruin nerf, I can hardly ever get 2 kills without playing dirty. I'm rank 5 right now, been deranking from 1 since the nerf, and I feel like at these high ranks the only way you're going to keep control is if you kill someone in the first minute and half of the game. It's not fun for survivors or killer. Forcing stage 2 and tunneling are practically a necessity. And I feel like the game is determined in those first two minutes. Is someone dead? Are there still more than 2 gens left? If so, the 4k is just a matter of time. Otherwise, you'll be lucky to get a single kill. My rank has kind of stabilized at 5, close to 4, and every match is either an easy 4k from an early kill, or a hard-fought 1-2k, but I need to use noed, slug, and tunnel.

    could also, yaknow ,not slug or tunnel or use noed.

    Then derank even further and then just have some fun.

    Who cares? Play dirty. Don't live by the book of killer rules written by survivors.

    I play killer quite a bit but mainly i play survivor. When i play killer (currently rank 5 too), if i'm lucky enough not to get into an SWF lobby, isn't that bad to be honest. Random players in solo queue are manageable. But when i get into a full squad of SWF dream team, i'm lucky if i can get one kill at the end of the game, especially in large maps like Wreckers' Yard. Usually they move in this way:1 one looping god that drives you crazy with window and pallet loops, 1 chasing you with a flashlight in case you down his friend, and the other 2 genrush the hell out of you armed with prove thyself and toolboxes. Yeah you can leave the chase and go to generators, but as soon as you leave, they start doing another generator. They should nerf SWF instead of HEX perks. So i understand you bud. If you don't play really dirty and sweaty, it's a loss from the start.
