Skeleton Key SWF

Honestly, I'm fine with solo queue keys but when a team just happens upon hatch and they all just disappear it really isn't good feeling for the killer. The counter play is extremely limited and removes almost all agency from the killer. I would recommend disabling at least the skeleton key from SWF. I am new and have been ranking up and just hit rank 8 after almost a week and this is the second time it has happened to me but this almost caused me to depip which would have felt really unfair. I felt confident in that game and was near securing the game ending hooks just to have the rug swept out by the lowest class of outplay.
