2 games in a row, 2 nurses... both of them "afk", or so it seemed. They were different players though.

    As a nurse main, sadly I know why. Nurse is the strongest killer in the game hands down, and when you get pretty good with her, you basically 4k every match with ease. But, with the introduction of MMR, every win spikes your MMR to an extreme level, so alot of nurse mains that started getting good or are semi-decent with her get thrown into the sweatiest matches of their lives. So called, "High MMR". Here, you will see 4 dead hards, 4 iron wills, DS, BT, and of course CoH. So to many of these nurse players, they don't have fun and decide to go afk so that they can reduce their MMR to get less stressful matches. I know, because I see 4 dead hards every game, 4 DS's every game, every survivor has a minimum of 2k hours, etc.

    You mean ... there are games with other perks than these? Surely you jest.

    So they 4k every match, but if mmr puts them in trials where they have to work for it they de-mmr so they still 4k but only easier? Gotta love the mindset.

    so you're saying every nurse player who doesn'tt mop the floor of the survivors is a terrible player? Did I ever even mention myself? Why are you trying to bend what I said, I was stating people who start to play nurse recently since alot of her game breaking bugs were fixed. Since then, people wanna try her out, and a mid tier MMR nurse should be put with mid tier MMR. But from what I've tested (using fresh accounts), is when you start as a brand new killer you can get a really good gripping, but if you start overperforming in your first few games your MMR will be inflated and that's when the whole system ######### up. That's why as a survivor every once in a while you'll see a baby killer, and every once in a while as killer you'll see a baby survivor. If your MMR is overshot, as new player it can be extremely discouraging to be put up against thousand hour players in a unfair game. That's just the sad reality of this terribly made matching system that takes barely anything in a trial to account other than a kill/escape ratio.

    Yes I don't have fun playing killer anymore. Do I derank? No. Do I still play nurse? Yes. Why? Bloodpoints. I put up with the unbalanced survivor meta because BHVR is not gonna do anything aboutt it anytime soon. But that's all good, I'm starting to play Civilization.

    At least I know why they afk now xD

    It's fine, I could complete the "hide 120 seconds within killer's range" without having to sweat it
