The second iteration of 2v8 is now LIVE - find out more information here: https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/kb/articles/480-2v8-developer-update

How do your matches go with the new Skill based match making system ?

So, some background info:


  • Got about 4.000 hours, split between survivor and killer
  • Mostly play solo, sometimes 1 friend joins in so we are 2.
  • Europe region
  • Achieved rank 1 every season on both (I played a lot obviously)
  • Currently Iridescent IV


So, as a killer most of my matches go as follows:

  • Extremely sweaty SWF squads who are sworn to repair until their fingers bleed, strong loop campers and goers and everyone has DS BT and deadhard.
  • Usually 3-4k. Sporadically they escape. Is it fun? rarely.

As survivor my matches go as follows:


  • Extremely sweaty killers who camp and tunnel every single match without an exception. It's not "sometimes they will proxy camp and tunnel somebody". It's every mach. Most of the killers are Nurses (yesterday I got 5, 3 of them in a row, then a Clown, then another Nurse) Oni , Blight, Freddy and Spirit.
  • Survivors seem less useless than they previously were before the update so it definitely has an influence.
  • There's at least 1 DC around 30% of the matches. Some might be technical issues, many are obvious ragequits.
  • Usually everyone dies. sometimes 1 or 2 might get away leaving you on first hook all the way into sacrifice.
  • Is it fun? rarely.


So, the system improved some stuff, but just made very match super sweaty tryhard and camping tunneling and gen rushing as the standard experience.


how about yours?
