Nerf mettle of man, it's getting ridicoulous playing SOME killers at rank 1

Trapper, Wraith, Hag, Doctor, Freddy, Pig, Clown, Spirit and even Myers and Legion to some extend suffer severely from MoM.
Only Billy, Huntress and (already weak) Plague can counter Mom. Nurse doesn't bother with an additional hit anyway

Maybe because no one want to let the killer have a free BBQ?

@lunaticlifter nah... you don't balance around those who play the most efficient... You know why?.. Cause if they did, then when that big whole experiment that came out where SWF were crushing killers.. you know that big Derank bullshit.... How efficient were they?.. Did the Devs even really care about it?.. No because.. You don't balance the game around those who play the most efficient.
I have nothing against Zubat, and I agree he is one of the top players, but you don't balance around the top players, at least unless they did something as...
Making balance a bit more dynamic the more you increase in rank... but again.. how do you do that properly while at the same time not screwing over your lower rank and less skilled players?
Cause how it stands now... The more easier you make it so high rank killers to kill high rank survivors, you make it easier for low rank killers to kill low rank survivors.
You don't have too many high ranking survivor potatoes like their were in the past, but there is a ton of low rank potato survivors who would suffer the effects of balancing to high rank players.

So, I main killer but have both survivor and killer around 5. When people talk about game balance, most people talk about it from a competitive standpoint. But the other aspect that needs to be addressed is the amount of effort required to "win" a game for a player on each side at similar rank. Granted, this is personal opinion, but a 3k or 4k as a mid-tier killer at rank 5 is much more difficult than an escape as a rank 5 non-meta survivor. It's not even close.
A killer still has to skillfully interact to achieve their goal when running meta killer perks. A survivor is rewarded for being hit with MoM and they get a free heal with Adrenaline. That's what upsets people. Killers are still required to skillfully interact with the game but now get punished more when survivors don't do the same.
Dead Hard, Sprint Burst, Balanced Landing, etc are all good perks. There's nothing wrong with them because there is skill and counterplay and timing involved for both sides. But perks like MoM, Adrenaline, NOED, and add-ons like Ebony Moris remove skill from the game and punish opposing before the game even begins in many cases, without any opportunity for counterplay. That is the definition of unfun.

Some of you got the point of the post, others not, but i appreciate your opinion and the fact that many people agree that the perk needs to be fixed, with the current state of the game, the same zubat and many others people agree, that's why i hope devs will do something for the next chapter. Talking about balance, imho you should not capitalize on survivors mistakes, that's why i love playing nurse(no add ons) or spirit, because it depends on your ability, if i lost, i know i played bad... while with others m1 killers even if i play perfectly i may still lose that's the point; MoM makes it even harder, sometimes impossible combined with others survivors meta perk. You can't even compare it to adrenaline or noed, because adrenaline reward you for doing all gens or gives you a little chance if the killer close the hatch, noed can be cleansed, MoM reward you for what, being hit? And the downside can be countered by healing at 99% until the killer finds you, plus most of the time even if you heal, it's in the end game, so who even cares.. However you will rarely find in a lobby 4 amazing survivors, but i still think the balance should go up to those who play good, it's just so logical, not godlike, good... for the low ranks balance thing they will eventually learn to get good. I only ask to put more downside to Mom, like gives exausthion(while MoM is active you can't dead hard, sb, bl etc.) , and gives the downside aura thing when Mom is already activated(because you never know who runs it), then would be MAYBE balanced...
