Perfectionism! or when do you feel like you won?
Victory isn't always clear cut in the this game. When do you feel like you've won a match?
When you're a survivor:
You survived?
Your whole team survived?
Half your team?
When you're a killer:
2 kills? 3 kills? 4 kills?
I ask because I've seen meltdowns in post game chats over a team losing a single survivor to the killer.

As Survivor:
When I pip OR when I escape OR when the other 3 Survivors escaped.
As Killer:
When I pip or get at least a 3K.

As a survivor: As long as I don't de-pip, considering the ranking system is broken (imo) I consider it a win.
As a killer: I'm a baby killer so one sacrifice for me is good xD Or when one of the players comments that I was good during the game.

2k 2e is a draw from either side

I really don't care, as long as once I did an epic gamer move that game, or something fun happened. The entire team could lose at 5 gens with no one escaping, but if I kobed into rescuing downed survivor into successful 360, then I consider that a win.
As to what I actually think, non-personally.

Survivor - Escape OR Pip. Tie if at least 2 teammates escape.
Killer - 7 hooks or a 3K.

Survivor: To get that winning rush I have to have been the runner that match. Nothing feels better than running a killer for multiple gens and finishing with your team bodyblocking for you out the exit gate.
Killer: Killing the survivors isn't enough anymore. I have to kill them and be stylish while doing so.

I'm a Rank 1 Killer and a Red Rank Survivor.
On Killer, my standards change depending on what I'm playing against. I think I won if I get a 4k against mediocre Survivors. OR if I get a 2-3k when I'm at a major disadvantage due to a SWF, extremely high rank players all running dead hard and DS or simply a bad map. Like if I get unlucky and get Ormond or Haddonfield on Legion, the goal is brutal killer and bloodpoints not a 4k.
On Survivor, it's mostly just bloodpoints and decent loops. It's not super hard to at least safety pip regardless of your team. Realistically, in solo queue you can't control if you escape, but you can control your bloodpoints and emblems to an extent so that's what I focus on. I don't care a ton if my team dies because matchmaking can really screw you sometimes so I mostly focus on my individual play

I pip, I win one either side.

I don't care about "winning," I care about playing well. If I run the killer all game long but end up dying for it, great.
If I play well but got a ######### map or a good team and only get 0k-1k, also great.
People that sweat for the 4k are the worst kind of people. If you get 3k and someone gets hatch, who cares?

Killer: 3-4K is a win, or whenever I pip which is usually a 4K.
Survivor: When at least two Survivors escape.

For both sides, when I at least safety pip. I'm not good at actually escaping, but as long as I've done enough to help my team and safety-pip or better, I feel like I did well. As a killer, I feel pretty good if I get a 2k.
And sometimes my win is just getting a challenge done. I was playing killer today because I had three dailies. I got them each finished in one match (and finished a tome challenge between those three matches), and then I played a fourth match and got another tome challenge finished. If I hadn't gotten Haddonfield for 3/4 matches I would have continued because I was feeling pretty good about it all, but I was tired of only getting one map lmao.

I feel like it's a win as long as I enjoyed myself as Survivor. I enjoy the game the most depending on how much I mess with the Killer and how competent my teammates are and by that I mainly mean them working on gens. Thankfully, Killer rage gives me more enjoyment than competent teammates because those seem far and few between in the Red ranks.
Like today for example, I played against a Leatherface on Lery's. He failed to down and hook me even once the entire match despite some moderate persistence, I kept smacking pallets on his dome, teabagging and leading him on a very long chase until fed up with frustration he just revved up his chainsaw and hit a random wall perhaps throwing a tantrum not only in game but in real life? Nearing the end..it was just me and my teammate. The Killer downed my teammate for the Nth time but he was not satisfied...he wanted me...so he camped the dying Survivor and even managed to bust (find) me but yet again I managed to lose him. I couldn't find the hatch anywhere and after he busted my teammate again he hooked them deciding to try his luck at busting me at the exit gates. I waited for him to check the one I was at and sprung out once he left. The gate open, he stands at the exit to Lery's. His eyes, fixated on my butt as I teabag him once again. He throws a hit at the wall in frustration before approaching me, I run closer to the exit and he believes I've left but there I stayed, continuing my ferocious assault on his sanity. His back turned and as he realizes the game has not ended...he pauses...then in one last bid of frustration he revs his chainsaw and comes at me one last time. I leave, uninjured. Living happily ever after. The End.
It's matches like those that I truly enjoy.
Oh and when I play Killer I want the 4k. :P

As a survivor I consider I win if I escape, by any means.
As a killer, if I hooked everyone at least twice and got 2+ kills, or otherwise if I get a 3k, I consider I win. I don't usually care for a 4k, and if the survivors are not teasing me, I usually let the last one escape.
But I don't care if I win or lose, as long as I can have fun in a game.

As survivor: Whether or not I survive, what matters is if I earned more points than my teammates and the killer. To me that's hard evidence that I was the MVP of the match.
As killer: ...When I hear the lamentations of their women.
