I insist on Random Solo Que

I believe the game needs three ques. (Currently has two).

Killer Mains would que as Killer as normal.

SWF would que as SWF and be paired with Killer Mains.

Everyone else ques solo, match five players and choose one at random to play Killer. 20% chance to play Killer, (actually a little less because solo players would often fill in three man SWF ques.)

This adresses a lot of the current problems with matchmaking, styles of play and levels of play.

People who are focused on being a good Killer and want to Killer main every game, will be matched against SWF.

Survivors who want to play survivior every game on comms with friends can que SWF and be matched against Killer Mains.

Random Solo would become the "casual mode" as the person chosen to play Killer will often not be as invested as a Killer main. It would promote playing both sides of the game. Solo ques would pop non stop as they are feeding their own Killer que.

I dont know the statistics on how many que as SWF, this may be an issue if it's too low to feed Killer mains.

I really believe a random solo que would spice the game up for casual solo players and promote a healthier playstyle as more survivors become aware of Killer feels and vice versa.

I know a major argument would be, "forcing people to play something they dont want to." To this, I say Killer mains and Survivors can still que for those roles primarily, (Survivor being a little tough if your friends don't play DBD, I guess.) But even then you still only have a less than 20% chance to be chosen as Killer so what, one in five games is not bad and, you might even have some fun! It's also well worth having a constant solo que that pops, hopefully, instantly.

Look, good Killer Mains wreck solo teams and solo's can never really rely on their teammates. SWF have an advantage over Killers that can be too much for casual Killers or beginners to handle. So we put the Killer mains against the SWF and they can go all sweaty on eachother while everyone else fools around in solo que.

That's my idea, it breaks up a lot of meta or pits the Meta against eachother. Maybe the player base couldn't handle it, maybe Killer and SWF ques would be too long but, damn I really think the idea of a random que, it would shake things up.
