10 matches, all had NOED, anyone else having this?

Since the introduction of SBMM, I've been encountering NOED waaaaay more often than I used to. Before, I'd see it 1 in every 5 matches. Now, I've come across it 10 times in a row. It's a weird trend considering MMR doesn't mean much and has a cap to it.

    At high levels, gen speeds are too damn fast and stacking 4 gen slowdown perks doesn't cut it anymore. Best bet is to play an endgame build with NOEd and hope for the best.

    i bring small game cause if i notice the killer aint doing so well, there is a chance they have noed. especially if they use there power badly but are decent at killer themselves. makes me think they just started playing said killer so not much perk selection sometimes noed.

    With the new MMR NOED is the only thing getting me any worthwhile kills.

    1st hook 3 gens gone, second hook 1 gen left. 1 of 3 things happens...

    Camp that hook, noed procs get 1-2k from it.

    Camp that hook survivors stop doing gens and all run around uselessly trying to taunt and flashlight click because they seem very agitated by the camping, they never finish the gen and all die or 1 hatch.

    Highly coordinated team gets the unhook using BT, body blocking and good teamwork last gen pops and I maybe get a 1k from NOED before its cleansed the rest escape.

    This is my new game experience and frankly none of it is much fun.

    If they ever nerf NOED that will be the end of my DBD game, unless the bring in a solo mode against bots.

    I've been working to level Pinhead since release and don't get much time to play so I have only a handful of perks and NOED isn't one yet, despite being level 60ish on him at this point. With SBMM I have been doing pretty well but the second I have NOED it's going on simply because I also don't have any slowdown perks unlocked except Ruin 1 which isn't enough.

    As a 50/50 player, I see a lot of NOED but don't run it too often simply because I do better with that slot as something else. But until I level this guy up NOED is on simply because I'm tired on the gen rush and have no other options. Hoarder is still locked too which suuuuucks.

    Take Small Game or Counterforce and punish them for it. NOED is not a problem perk.

    NOED exists to give killers a second chance and to punish survivors who ignore one of their side objectives. Survivors cannot even complain either, there are plenty of perks to find totems ASAP and some maps have the most obvious and open totem spots that its laughable.

    If survivors can have Dead Hard, then killers should have NOED - it's only fair.

    Detectives Hunch is great too, especially with Crystal Bead Map! I got lucky on my first Counterforce trial, I wiped four totems pretty early and unfortunately for The Hag, she was using all four Hex perks. Needless to say she DC before I could find the fifth.

    I've found higher NOED usage but that's why I do dem bones. It would be nice if the rest of my team pitched in too but I can only control me so whatcha gonna do

    Well same goes to survivors using dead hard, decisive strike, borrowed time + something...and add flashligh, premade teams and body blocking...FUN!

    Gotta be honest I haven't seen noed active at all this week.

    I usually check perks but not always so some might have had it but none have gone down to it.

    I run small game & I have seen a pretty big increase in totem cleansing too though perhaps they've seen a lot of noed too.

    Seen a significant increase in hex totems but that is largely down to pinhead.

    I’ve been seeing NOED a lot in my games even before this new MMR.

    Had NOED come up randomly twice in my most recent session, as killer.

    First game I used it to secure a sacrifice (2k overall), and the second time it came up I never got to use it as 4k'd with 1 gen remaining.

    Yep, I started to equip small game or detective's hunch. Not a fan of counterforce

    Not as much as usual. But I'm noticing killers that really hate when people earn BP so kinda the same thing.
