Return of the Victory Cube
The explanation during the Q&A why the mmr only takes kills into account instead of hooks, made me realize that the current system works just like the Victory Cube used to work. During the VC, a killer who got 2 kills +1 hook had a guaranteed pip. While a killer who got 7 hooks but no kill depiped and a killer with 8 hooks and no kill black piped.
Back then, killers realized how easy it was to pip by just camping the first survivor and so they did. VC was scrapped because this created very toxic gameplay. But now it seems like its back.
So now the "good" killers will get their 8 hooks with no kills and stay in their low mmr, where nobody is sweating. While the "toxic campers" get their kills and move up in the mmr, where everyone is sweating.
This totally defeats the purpose of skill based matchmaking.

It really doesn't. It takes someone like me to go up there and brutalize them whereas the 2 hookers thrive on having opponents who have no clue what they are doing. Works as intended.

Ah, I wasn't aware of the term.

updates to certain things used to contain 6 main changes, hence the name "Cube" for the faces. There was also the Wraith Cube for his first (of many) set of buffs.
