Reverse Taking One for the Team
Taking One for the Team requires you take 250 protection hits for survivors who were just unhooked and are still near the hook. It promotes "farming" / hook-swapping and basically throwing the game.
BHVR.
If you change this one terrible achievement, you will immediately see matchmaking quality increase.
Think about it. Players going for achievements have to do this scummy behavior (unhooking right in front of the killer) two hundred and fifty times. It doesn't affect every match, as not everybody goes for achievements. But it affects a lot of matches.
Change it to requiring 250 safe unhooks. You know… an actually good thing for your team! This isn't rocket science. Easy way to immediately improve the game.

You're only throwing the game if you are farming the achievement instead of just "achieving" it during normal gameplay. It happens a lot because killers go back to the hook a lot. Right now I'm at 1083 protection hits for recently unhooked survivors without any farming.

Yes, you aren't forced to throw, merely incentivized to… 250 times. It impacts the game.
