Were parameters changed for a Mericless and Ruthless victory?

So, this has kinds been bugging me a little. It seems like for this new update the parameters have been changed. I've had multiple games where they are 3 gens left to complete and I've killed all survivors, both by hook, mori, and any combination in between. And yet.....I'm still getting Only ruthless. What's changed, if there's anything?

    As I'm aware no, it's always been an issue of kill to fast or use other means/skip hook stages will punish you.

    Kills does not mean a win in the eyes of the emblems for killer

    The parameters change depending on your grade - ash-bronze is easiest, silver-gold is harder, and iri is hardest. Other than that, it mostly depends on how many hooks you got and how many times you hit people (so instadown killers or killers where everyone is always injured tend to suffer, emblems-wise.)

    Ah I was wondering what was up. Both make sense. Though I didn't realize the higher ypur grade, the more difficult it was to get merciless as well. Thank you guys for the information. I was starting to think I was just doing something horribly wrong and being penalized for trying my best
