An Argument for Individual Killer Ranks

In a recent video I made I played as one of my worst killers, The Nurse and the newest killer The Spirit.

I had gotten to the higher ranks by playing The Hag and this resulted in me playing as a nublet Nurse and fresh off the download Spirit at Rank 3.

The matches weren't exactly fun, but this was mitigated by the fact that I was expecting them to be poor matches due to the universal ranking system for Killers.

I believe that because of their diverse nature, a system should be implement for killers so they hold individual ranks. If a person is bad with one killer and wants to learn, they should be able to work up their skill level to be able to compete with the more skilled survivors. Instead of playing a new killer against survivors whose skill levels and experience are far superior. This same reasoning is what prompted the most recent ranking changes to keep similarly skilled players closer together in rank.

Someone commented on that same video and mentioned that if this were implemented killers might naturally be separated into lower ranks for which they were designed. The devs have mentioned before that not all killers are meant to be competitive, and this would make playing and learning those lesser killers more enjoyable to play since the player might not be facing survivor players who have much more experience comparatively.

I hope some more consideration is put into this idea. I know that mechanically it might be difficult, but I think the reward would be a better game experience for players who want to learn new killers after mastering others.

Here's the video in question if you're interested.
