Steamroll via new killer syndrome

I'm not necessarily talking about Dracula, but rather any killer a person JUST picks up. How many games do you think you have to play before your MMR for that killer settles? I've been playing Dredge basically for the first time starting last night and now this morning. At what point does it go from "oh, i only won because this is still low MMR" to "Maybe I'm just good at this killer"?

    The short answer would be that it varies from one Killer to another.

    The longer answer is that it typically follows a logarithmic curve where you gain rating more quickly at the beginning and that growth slows with each match played. There isn't really a definitive point where you settle. As your rating becomes more accurate and adjusts less with each match, you're also getting better with that Killer, so you'll continue to climb (albeit more slowly).

    It's not quite possible to put a number on it because it can vary depending on a number of factors. A Killer that's easy to pick up and easy to master might reach that plateau sooner than others, meanwhile a Killer that's more complicated and has a lot of room to grow may take more matches to flatten out. You'll likely find yourself in the right ballpark fairly quickly (within a few days of playing them), but this is not where you'll stay. You will continue to improve and climb with practice.

    My last match was a 12 hook game where MOST of the survivors were on deathhook b4 anyone died and they still only got 2 gens. This was what had got my wondering if I was maybe still just in low MMR. Didn't realize it would be afew days til it leveled out. Fortunatly MOST of the survivors have been pretty good sports about it (at least the ones on PS who I could type GG to). Thanks for the reply.
