Why does the emblem system punish you...

Why is it that I can't demolish survivors by 4king in 5 mins? Shouldn't that be the whole point? To kill them off? Prevent them from touching gens and preventing them from.. well doing anything. This is without a mori or any of that instadown stuff. It's just a system I don't understand and feel as if it punishes you for no reason .

    Well some "smart" people would tell, it makes sense lore wise.

    But it's really just one of many flaws of the emblem system.

    That is such a terrible excuse for a bad game mechanic. But I get what you mean.

    It goes for both sides. If you focus too much on gens and escape as quickly as possible without engaging in chases or unhooking teammates, you also depip. The point of the emblem system is to reward you for making games last and be "fun". You can opt to ignore that of course.
