Killers vs Survivors

I play everything, killer and survivor rank 1-5. I think everyone notices on both sides the struggles killers face at these high ranks. If you are not running ruin or are not playing there nurse or spirit most likely you’re not getting even close to a 4 man. These problems are especially apparent with swf. Swf with insta heals, keys and gen rushing make the dictator of the game obviously the survivors. The killer can only chase one survivor at a time. The other 3 survivors I’m the meantime are gen rushing and getting gems done in as little as 20 seconds, especially with tool boxes. The killers objective at these ranks is more about reducing gen progression as much as possible rather than killing. My solution to the problem is reducing the gen progression times , when more than one survivor is on a gen. The reduction should not be big, but noticeable giving the killer more time to think about what the right decision could be rather than it always being gen reduction.
