It's almost like moris are balanced

Yes, this is a keys vs moris discussion. And we are talking about red rank level play. Now then, what makes moris so overpowered? They shave off almost 2 whole phases of survivor... survival.

As a killer you chase a survivor, get looped, down them, hook them and then wait for them to get unhooked. Assuming that the survivor is not outpositioned and gets to a loop before the first hit, this chase could take 30 seconds or less if the survivor is bad, or it could take 1-2 minutes depending on how safe/optimal the survivor wants to play the loops. By this point a gen, or 2 or 3, has been done. You also need to do that same chase let's say 9-11 more times to win. That's physically impossible unless the survivors throw the game hardcore. Not even NOED guarantees a comeback in the late game as long as survivors still need to be hooked that many times and have Unbreakables.

Survivors also have hatch, more specifically keys which are literally "Didn't finish all the gens? That's okay, you escape anyway!" It's the equivalent of an ebony mori and more, especially since it counters moris. The more survivors that are dead, the less gens need to be done before the hatch spawns.

Therefore, I can literally have my ebony mori only grant me 2 kills (not a free 4k, which is the slippery slope) because a survivor and their teammate had a key and found hatch. Killers could always slug which doesn't guarantee a win (again because of Unbreakables, keys, etc.), but it does potentially kill most survivors on their first or second hooks. So slugging is kind of like a mori, but you have to get super lucky and hope to down everyone fast before they can pick themselves up.

And yes, 'winning' is getting a 3-4k because otherwise you black pip or de-pip. It's not that I want killers to beat every team; I want it to be POSSIBLE for a killer to beat any team.

So with time needed to chase in mind, and keys countering the most overpowered tool killers have, what makes moris so radical? It's almost as if the game is meant to be played with moris!
