Why do killers leave lobbies when survivors join?
Real Question. What reason do killers leave the lobbies? Is it because the survivors look a certain way or because they have certain items? (no saltiness just genuine question)

Yes.
Or if they appear to be swf.

@FengMinEqualsWinReasons include
1) Previously fought survivors and they were too toxic, powerful, etc
2) There's too many toolboxes and/or keys
3) Killer checks their friends list and sees that all 4 survivors are friends
4) Legit needs to leave queue for real life issues
5) Survivors have terrible ping yet they are adamant on staying

Yes. Say there are already two people with toolboxes. Now a third surv with a toolbox joins. A lot of killers will leave now because the match would be too unbalanced.
It could also be because of a bad ping, of course.

Some reasons I’ve seen are as follows
(1. Swf)
(2.paid cosmetics stupid I know)
(3. Items)
(4.recently lost to someone in the group)
(5. A player in the lobby is known for dcing)

- SWF or appear to be SWF
- Everyone has items
- Names ("____ = DC" or if the name sounds toxic)
- Have faced a survivor from the group or have faced all of them and had a bad experience
- Could be a glitched lobby and the killer happens to leave when you join
- Friend's online and they'd like to play with them

the main reason seems to be if the survivors look like a challenge then lobby dodge

Im a ash main and when i enter a lobby the killer directly leave when they see me "hail to the king babe"

From my experience, a lot of Ash's play like potatoes. I kinda veer the other way!
Personally, a team of flashlights would previously make me go for my Franklin's Legion build, but in light of the changes - DODGE.

- 3+ toolboxes either means genrush or mass sabotage.
- P3 Claudettes everywhere! If I can't expect to see you, I won't play against you.
- 4-man-swf joining with everyone in camo colors and only one surv in shiny cometics with a flashlight. This is the typical "3 scrubs with their rank 1 captain" setup: He tries to get your attention and loop you through all the pallets on the map while his teammates do gens.
- Several Feng Mins with Shibuya masks. Dunno, this somehow screams "I want to sh*t in your face because I am cool!"
Conversely, the higher the amount of male survivors, the more likely I am to play this match. Because it signals "we are not tryharding and optimizing our wireframe by playing the smaller female survivors".

Just like the other say swf i normally close the lobby if i gone up against the same people in previous games or if their ping are bad cause i know I'm gonna get a txt saying my internet bad when other pings are in the green/yellow

The same reason people dc.
They can't accept the game is what it is.
Unbalanced or not, fun or not, the devs can't get stats to change things without simply playing.

Its because killers are twisted creatures.
