Buff Small Game instead of needing noed?
See totems aura within 4/6/8 meter radius and cleanse them 5/10/15% faster
Everytime you cleanse a dull totem you positioned is revealed to the killer for 4 seconds (like iron maiden)
Idk what would be more balanced making aura bigger per level or them being cleanse faster per level
Honestly I'd say the aura goes up per level. Please let me know what you think as totems are a big part of the game now and small game isn't good enough

Totems are a very small role in the game, perhaps even why the perk was entitled “Small Game”. The perk works as intended just fine, no need for any buffs or nerfs in my book.

Ruin: slows gen progress, doesn’t need cleansed but gens go faster if it is.
Devour Hope: Super strong, allows 1 hit downs, allows Moris, must be cleansed.
Haunted Ground: provides exposed status, normally paired with another hex...but short duration, no real threat.
Third Seal: provides blindness effect, doesn’t need to be cleansed.
NOED: provides exposed, but only after all gens have been completed. Endgame use only, doesn’t need cleansed but entire team escaping odds are improved if it is.
Huntress Lullably: changes sound cues on skill checks, does not need cleansed.
Retribution: oddly only affects people that are cleansing, provides Oblivious, doesn’t need cleansed.
Thrill of the Hunt: slows cleansing speed, alerts killer to hex totems being cleansed. Does not need cleansed.
Only 3 of these may present a serious challenge to a survivor’s gameplay. And like I mentioned, small game already works perfectly...it tells you where totems are (and bear traps, dream snares, hag traps)

Eh I'd make it a flat 2 Meters, 8 Meters aura reading might as well let you see from max distance. 2 Meters is like "it's right next to me I swear! Oh it's on the other side of the wall."
I'd also just do a lower cleanse speed. A friend with Leader and you with Resilience would equal nearly 50% at that rate(15+9+25 is 49%).
Small game is really good on its own, I try to use it as much as possible in new maps so I can learn the most common totem locations, but it's definitely not something you keep forever.

Small game is fine how it is though, if it needs anything it'd be adding tokens to it so you can tell how many totems are still uncleansed.

TBH it should be tied to a perk to shake up the meta slightly. You want to safeguard from NOED? Drop a second chance perk.
