After 372 games as a Solo Que Surv over 3 months I determined the killers who need nerfs and buffs

in Feedback and Suggestions

After collecting my personal win/lose data from the past 3 months as a Solo Que Survivor (who has over 1000 hours since 2019), I determined two outliers who rightfully deserve nerfs for balancing which are: Skull Merchant and Blight.

With Skull Merchant having: 4 Escapes and 12 Deaths

And Blight having: 4 Escapes and 11 Deaths.

The two killers who deserve buffs are: Doctor and Executioner.

Doctor having: 6 Escapes and 1 Death

And Executioner having: 6 Escapes and 1 Death.

Notes: I honestly was hoping to report annoying killers like Mastermind being OP but I found he is only slightly leading in wins over deaths.

Most Killers besides the 4 above actually have extremely balanced Escape/Death Rate. Take the newest Killer

The Good Guy: 28 Escapes and 25 Deaths

However some outliers still exist:

Nurse 4 Escapes and 9 Deaths

Trapper: 10 Escapes and 5 Deaths

Wraith: 5 Escapes and 10 Death

For extra context I play exclusively on Xbox Series X and exclusively in Solo Que.

    I think the sample is bit small. So I think the match numbers against each killers can be more extended.

    Nurse is fairer than skull merchant, I agree

    I determined the killers

    You think you decide that based on such a small sample and highly personal experience?

    It simply shows killer who you (or your teammates) can play against or not...

    Such a small sample is also very luck dependent. It doesn't decide anything.

    Executioner needs an addon pass

    the only reason he isn’t that good is because he only has 3 addons that are viable
