Matchmaking changes for SWF

As a new killer, i keep running into SWF groups that consist of two new players and two red ranks. They get in my lobby because of that, so the red ranks can troll me around the whole round. I do think there are groups who are intentionally seeking up new and low rank players to get in matches with less experienced players.

In my opinion, A SWF matchmaking should matchmake on the highest rank player in that group and match accordingly. If a low level gets a better killer because of it, then they made the choice to play with someone in red ranks and need to deal with a red rank killer then as well. But the killer in lower level ranks, cant see the levels of survivors in their match, so they dont have a choice to play them or not. I think this is an abuse of the system that SWF profit from. They already have the benefit of being SWF, why give them anymore?

For the newbee killer, its not fair to already be up against comms (which is an advantage) and then also have to deal with players that have more experience and so better then you and have much higher ranks then the killer. As a level 13 killer (with about 20 matches, i shouldnt have to deal with red rank players.
