The Game Has Really Changed.
I'm sure real players can relate when I say balance for killers are at an all time high, there's no denying that. You know, we don't see 4 man escapes as much anymore, and with the end game collapse in a lot of cases it solidifies that. I've been playing this game since January 2017, So I've pretty much seen and experienced it all.
I considered myself an even killer and survive player and the fact that I see people to this day saying SWF is overpowered and killers need to be stronger. Is ruining the so called "balance" of the game. Being honest ranks are way harder to get almost feel like luck is needed.
Why I'm saying this is because the developers are balancing their game for SWF, yes, but only seems to be only SWF. Solo queuing as a survivor is damn near suicide. There are healthy changes that have been made like the exhaustion nerf and generator repair nerf. But stuff like the healing nerf affects more than just SWF. I can say the statistics for death:survival rate has significantly increased over the last 5 months which is good. But you need to not just balance for SWF anymore, because more people won't be a 4 man SWF group.
I'm sure even if your a killer main you can understand this point of view.
Please don't hate on this post :3

I've been on the game since 2016 and I disagree. Killers aren't getting the bigger slice of cake here.

Yeah I mean ######### is he talking about.
Killer balance is the same as before.

"Solo queuing as a survivor is damn near suicide"
If you really think this, then this is a L2P issue. I play both sides at rank 1 as strictly solo and solo survivor is still ridiculously easy. The only games I don't pip as survivor is because we had DC's.
The game has been getting better but killer is still the weaker role by far.

That's a lie. I've played with you as survivor before where you were the only one killed (and caught for that matter). No DCs in the match, it was highly unlikely you pipped or even safety pipped.

Clearly I'm not talking every single game, but picking out one single anecdotal event doesn't mean anything I've said isn't accurate as I'm speaking generally. Also, I probably did black pip.

So, I think that this game might be almost even between survivor/killer right now. Issue is, nobody is being ranked where they actually should anymore. After the latest ranking change, it's very difficult to rank up as a killer, and requires you to play in ways that don't actually advance your objectives. So unless you're specifically playing to rank up, you'll usually, at best, get a single pip, and usually just stay rank-neutral, even when you're getting 4ks nearly every round.
This is what I'm currently dealing with. I very clearly should be a higher rank than I am, since the people I'm playing against don't actually have much of a chance, but I don't like to hobble myself with a disconnected system. So until this is resolved, unfortunately nearly everyone I play against is going to get pub stomped, even the SWF groups.

The survivor super ez? You mean killer xd

Oh snap!He got you there!
Killer mains claiming survivor is easy is pretty funny!
I play both Killer and Survivor every day and I can tell you that Killer is much easier and more relaxing to play than Survivor.
And yes I do meet SWF!

honestly, the only thing that kills solo queueing is the DC epidemic.
ive not had a single survivor game today where no one ragequit.
and honestly, dying to a 3v1 with 5 gens is no act of shame.

Clearly you don't play killer at high rank

He didn't get me with anything. Dying once doesn't mean solo survivor isn't very easy.
"Killer mains claiming survivor is easy is pretty funny!"
Seeing as you already know I play survivor at rank 1 as well this is a pretty stupid statement.
"I play both Killer and Survivor every day and I can tell you that Killer is much easier and more relaxing to play than Survivor."
Sorry but playing killer at rank 15 doesn't mean you have any idea what we're talking about.

Literally the only thing that make solo survivor hard is all the whiny cry baby that dc anytime the game doesn't go their way

Playing solo survivor DOES suck... but it's not due to killers having an advantage. Far from it. Aside from obvious DCs, the problem is due to incompetent fellow survivors or one's own incompetence. Period. Always has been, likely always will be.
Balance of power is still in the following order: SWF, Solo Survivor, Killer. All a killer can do is seize missed opportunities or capitalize on mistakes made by survivors. SWF always have somebody to lean on in order to bail them out on their mistakes while solo has to hope they didn't get dropped into the middle of a tater garden.
