Why do you have to have skill to rank but not to keep it?

If you are a 1 killer, in theory, you are more skilled AKA better at the more difficult. Then WHY DO YOU INSIDIOUS CAMP THE BASEMENT??? you can't do that and level down each game so why does it allow you to keep that rank you are oh so proud of but obviously don't deserve. Also, all the constant one hit down/ mori after 1 hook tunnel.. that definitely needs reworked, like maybe once you reach level 10 rank its unaccessible. I mean this will only work your nerves if you don't deserve your rank.

    If you're Rank 1, you end up not caring because you can't progress further and its easy as pie to get your Rank back with your main Killer if you somehow lose.

    I always have to remind myself not to sweat so hard. I can use fun perks and give hatch if I want. Or no ed and bloodwarden to be a low effort trash bin. It makes no difference at my skill level.

    First it's easy to see who the survivor main is and second not everyone does this maybe everyone you run into but it can't be helped sometimes it just depends on the person it sucks to suck and you don't get to complain about camping because it's not a good strategy. If you lost to camping it's because all of you and your teammates where too altruistic and instead of just slamming gens you all sacrificed yourself for one teammate.

    I play both, also is it complaining because I am curious to why they don't lose rank because of lack of skill? And shouldn't you excell if your top rank? I've played against red killers who didn't mori until it was after your 2nd hook, and some with no perks at all.. those are the skilled deserving players.

    Well people who do that are either nice or memeing because no one does that for fun as for when someone uses a mori that's just based on someone's moral compass and whether or not they want to just kill you and get you out of the way and when not to.

    Because the ranking system is terrible. It's so easy to get pips and even easier to keep pips. Something really needs to change

    And stupidly hard to loose them. Who came up with this system? It's so backwards.

    I'm a Rank 1 Survivor. Got 29,550 points. I safety pipped and BARELY. I did pretty much everything. The Emblem System is not worth worrying about. Also, I escaped.
