*All* survivors are going to be considered "potatoes" by the new MMR system
Consider this - you're rank 1/2/3/4 and you get put with a team that is in the upper ranks of 10+ that doesn't know how to play DBD completely, your "skill" that round is up to your teammates playing skillfully against a potential red-rank killer. So, if they get downed and you have to go for the saves (and nobody's doing gens), RIP your matchmaking rank. Even better if they DC and leave you in a 1V1 with the killer.
TLDR version: Your ability to do well as a survivor in a round is highly determined by the MMR. If you get put with terrible teammates, it's likely your performance that round is going to be terrible too.

So far MM has abused the killers for me. I've had Red rank teammates that have been actually NOT potatoes! The killer however seems REALLY bad. I mean, new player type bads. So the MM has screwed somewhere if these poor players are being matched to people far beyond their skill level.

If you can do well in chases, your team doesn't matter that much because you'll last longer than everyone else, which gives you more time do do stuff like saves, heals, gens and chases.
Even if the game ends at four gens, a good Survivor will have done that one gen, gotten 2-3 saves and a decent amount of pallet stuns and time in chase. Plus, if you're the last Survivor and get unlucky with hatch you can farm points with totems

Ive had a dwight running around throwing pallets down when he’s not in a chase.
And he was such a baby he got into lockers for no apparent reason. 😔

Do you have any evidence that MMR takes length of chases into account, or are you assuming it does?

So it’s an assumption. I guess we’ll see.
