Sudden influx of SWF and Keys

The survivors are on a key streak holy crap. This is my sixth game against an SWF with a key this is pretty sad times.

    Is there a key challenge in the tome or something?

    Without getting into how good or bad keys are, just FYI Peanits confirmed today that they have changes to keys coming very soon. (The only reason they didn't release with the mori changes is that the mori changes were fairly simple to implement.) It'll be interesting to see what the key revamp does.

    Is this a complaint or brag? You got 32k bp and a 4k...

    I think there is. Also due to the latest sales a lot of newer players might be doing older tomes.

    And everyone was killed so what exactly is the problem?

    If this post is trying to complain about how keys didn't get nerfed alongside moris, it's doing a pretty bad job.

    Maybe but I highly doubt it. Too convenient timing, this is the first time I got that many SWF with a key in a row out of all my time with the game.

    So this is a coordinated SWF with a key AND a map, you 4k'd with the newly nerfed ebony and you're still complaining?

    Probably thinking the key change will follow soon. It is kinda ridiculous at the moment.

    Really shows how much survivors were actually holding back on keys

    Alternatively... with the mori nerf, everyone sees the writing on the wall concerning keys and are using them before they are changed?

    It's ok, you had alchemist's ring. Balances out the key perfectly fine.

    Here's another one, I only started taking screenshots on the fifth game when it was getting ridiculous and noticed a pattern.


    I don't know what to tell ya chief. Am I suppose to just kneel over and not bring my strongest tools as well?

    All right I'll respect the survivor handbook to not use add ons when I see an SWF team clearly looking for trouble when I'm just farming bloodpoints AND trying to get 9000 shards to buy a new killer lmao

    Out of the sixth game I lost 4 and if you noticed the screenshots I took where there was a weak link. Ebony is garbage.

    Anyone questioning why it's a big deal that survs are bringing keys to the match before getting mowed down by routine killer loadouts doesn't understand that it's just unfair and that's that

    and with the shortage, I expect rank 15 or 14 to also start seeing this at least once out of every 6 games or so by the end of the weekend as some killers have left along with solos urvivors that won't take their queue times just to get sandbagged by swf lol. On the lighter side, at least the 3 mans can just pick up a fourth from some of the solos if they find it's been taking matchmaking too long to lego them into a lobby a 4 man took or that a duo is already in. About all you're gonna see within a few weeks is nothing but swf and the most imba stuff they cann pull out of the characters they banked stuff on ever I bet. I hope some of you stream the next few weeks for the lulz. I'd rather not give the twitch and yt swf streamers any view counts. One killer I started watching sometimes, discovered him throught he ps5, is a guy named showstopper. I can't wait to see him stream after this.
