The Last Mask Offering

Killer main here.  So, I've noticed a LOT more Map Offerings for Mother's Dwelling have been used by SWF groups in my games this past week.

Is there a particular advantage or is it purely coincidenal that Survivors are wanting this map?  I've played a decent bit of Survivor off & on, bit I def prefer playing as Killer and I couldn't really see a huge advantage being there, outside of Baby Killers practicing/trying out harder to use Killers.  Not like Killer picking The Game kinds scenario.

Have gotten 3-4ks on every group picking it so far, so Im a little puzzled by the influx of the offering being used xP

    I'm not a Survivor Main but it is good for Balanced Landing, it's huge which is bad for slow killers, the main house has some nice nooks to crouch hide in which has fooled me sometimes, it's harder to get to each Gen and know which one is being worked on in the beginning because of the distance between etc. Other than that I don't know, I love the map myself but it's for aesthetic reasons and not optimal plays.

    I feel Mother's Dwelling is 50-50. As said above, its really good for BL, and its also rather dark in some corners. At the same time, if you are unlucky, the Killer can see you across the entire map because of those areas where there are no trees to hide behind.

    That said, I may be biased. That map is rather cursed for me.

    Appreciate the replies and insight given here! While I've been playing off and on since it was on PS+ and improved my gameplay, I'm still quite newish on the smaller intricacies such as map pros/cons

    It's one of the biggest maps so it hurts killers, especially slow killers.

    Also when they burn an offering it's normally because they either know of an exploit or have memorized and perfected all of the best looping spots.

    I really like to hide behind the big trees and the bushes. It's a fun map for stealth play.

    It’s a 50/50 map, it isn’t survivor nor killer sided. I like it as either one but particularly as survivor because it has good loop spots and is one of the darker maps  which makes it easy to hide in especially for a Claudette. Red Forest, Asylum, Swamp, Cornfield, and Yamaoka are very good for breaking LOS and hiding in, those are the most used map offerings I see.

    It is a good map for balanced landing and has good loops and a lot of safe pallets and jungle gyms. It is a strong map for survivors imo. The mother's dwelling house in the middle has some broken window spawns as well. The survivors you played against were probably really boosted or you could have played a killer like nurse which makes all that stuff lose significance. But the house in the middle is still good against nurse because it obstructs her view. The Game/ Gideon Meatplant is a killer sided map most likely because of the good totem placement

    It's crappy for finding pallets and trash for looping. But with balanced it's the strongest map in the game and u can get an eagle eye view on that house and find those pallets out. With windows of oppurtunity it's OP.
