As a killer playing during the witching hours...

Do you treat every team as SWF or Solo

    Solo

    Almost all of the matches late at night have pathetically easy results. Survivors are extremely easy to handle.

    You go into every game playing your hardest, giving 100%. To do so, you must expect that your opponents are the best (whether they are or not). I always operate under the premise that my opponents are going to make the best possible move so I am ready to counter it.

    Um... Neither? Most trials are a mix of the two to begin with, and I honestly don't play any differently for either extreme.

    I sit on my laptop, matches don't exist in the late hours.

    For me games are easier in the late hours. But i dont treat teams differently. I have killer with winstreaks where i tryhard and killer without where i play more relaxed.

    There are special conditions like a last second switch which make me tryhard, too.

    I don't play any different than I normally would but I will say 98% of my matches late at night are obvious SWFs.

    With this being said, I try to avoid playing killer at night unless I'm absolutely craving it bc I don't feel like sweating my *ss off at 2am.

    I get immediate matches, pretty much any time in the morning (Central Time Zone, North America). I've played matches anywhere from midnight to 7 AM, every day of the week). Matches vary -- I'll get solos mixed with SWF groups, as best as I can tell. Some rainbow lobbies, sometimes all Red Ranks. Sometimes the matches feel easier, other times they're still super sweaty. For me, at least, the only thing consistent is the inconsistency.

    Queues are basically instant for me during those hours (from like 4pm to 3am lol) so they're usually some poor solo souls that've been waiting for 7 years only to find out there's a single red rank among them and the rest are rank 16s. I go into it expecting to play my fairest and usually I can and still do well.

    However during the day, oh boy queues take forever and are those teams sweaty. I actually have to try in those cases.

    It really depends on how they play, you can most of the times tell who is playing in SWF and who is poor solo q gamer.

    I treat both the same I go for hooks and points, don’t tunnel or camp and say GG after all matches(assuming they are on Xbox anyway post game chat pls BHVR)

    I just play and make choices I think are right at the time, that is all.

    I go into every match with a clean slate and figure out what type of team it is. If you can tell it's a bunch of solos or a not so great SWF then I'll take it easy and let everyone have some fun. If it's a sweaty SWF then it's all guns blazing and may the best man win.

    For PST zone, I usually get games in less than 10 seconds, definitely no more than 20 seconds. For Survivor however, it's never less than 5 minutes and more commonly 7-10 minutes of waiting.

    My thought process starts out assuming im getting survivors that are going to be much better than me because im fairly new. Once i get my first couple chases then i might change my mind.

    I treat every player as a skilled solo player.
