I think did a pretty good job so far.
At least you hooked the highest scoring player.

"Did you have fun?"
I wonder when was the the last time someone earnestly gave a 5 rating.4 -

Grades are not the same as MMR though, right? Feels like they've been pretty clear about that.

Grades don't mean as much as you think. You can never lose a grade once you earn it (until the monthly reset) so if someone just plays a lot over the course of the last month they'll have a high grade. And if you look at their loadouts there's a bunch of yellow and green perks in there so it's not even obvious how long they've played those particular survivors.
Not saying it couldn't have been a mismatch, those happen. I'm just saying you can't just see a red grade or grey grade and assume much about the MMR of the player.

I think you shouldn't play pig.

What exactly is this screenshot supposed to prove? That you lost against people who have played more dbd than you this month?
You even got a kill and who knows how many more hooks. It's not the end of the world to have a game where you don't 4k.

Honestly? I don't even remember.

The grades do not affect your MMR.

I play almost only survivor. I've probably played less than 5 hours total on killer games. So unless it's considering my survivor MMR in a killer game, which seems pretty messed up, I don't see YOUR point.

See, now THAT'S useful info. If you had said that in your first post, everyone would have agreed that you got a crappy matchup instead of correcting the misunderstanding that grades have anything to do with MMR. It's possible that since you've played such little killer the system doesn't know exactly where to place you yet, so you got a "placement match" of sorts that put you up against survivors of higher skill just to see how you'd do. Hope your future experiences with MMR are more fair to you, but just keep in mind for the future, the MMR system considers 2 kills and 2 escapes to be "balanced," regardless of how scummy you play or how much you struggle to get them. Good luck.

Grades ARE a good general indicator.
YES we know MMR is where it's at....pointing it out doesn't disprove the posters feedback as it matches my experience.
Very casual player rarely reaching Gold in a month, facing (lucky or duh, good) red ranks constantly game after game.
But yes, tell us it is zero indication of skill imbalance.
0 -
I'm sure you can understand how there is a relationship between the two though. MMR is king but you have to admit its an indicator, surely
0 -
Sure, it's an indicator of a lot of time played in a certain month, and I guess a lot of time played in a certain month has a correlation to skill. I.e., more time in game means one is likely to be better at the game.
But OP's initial post and the thought behind the complaint (BROKEN MMR!!!!!!) is not sound logic.
0 -
Honestly, this is embarrassing.
Grades have nothing to do with your match making. They're just representative of how much you've played this month. That's literally it.
All this screenshot shows is that the killer hasn't played much this month, and the survivors have. What's so unusual about that??
0 -
By that logic, come the 13th of every month, everyone just 'deskills' ???
0 -
But it does show how unbalanced it is.
0 -
It shows who's played longer than who for that month. If their still ash by the end of the month, they're either not that good or they haven't played most of the month, meaning their rusty or can't play much. There's a clear difference shown by the grades.
If you don't play for most of the month, are you gonna be as good as someone who has wasted so much of their own time to get to iridescent?
If you're working fast food, will you be as good as someone who has worked there for far longer than you?
I can understand ash to silver, or silver to iridescent, but there's a clear sign of something not working right when it's an ash 3 being paired with 4 iridescents.
0 -
it's not unbalanced though. the grades don't affect your MMR.
0 -
They don't yes but explain this then? Why are iri ranked players who have most of the perks if not all are allowed to go up players who most likely don't have much kit to work with I know the resets make it harder to track but still.
I'm not saying it effects mmr but it does show how unbalanced this God awful system is.
0 -
Looking at it, seems perfectly fine. Don't understand the post.

NOED GANG!
0 -
Because as an Ash rank- which means I've not played much killer, no reason I should be going agaisnt red ranks, who have clearly played quite a bit of survivor.
0 -
No comment as to the ranking system but just in case you didnt know block the names of players in screenshots
0 -
This is what I’m saying always in this killer forum. Noed gives you undeserved kills and finally the matchmaking put you with survs you don’t deserve to play with.
0 -
Grades show how much one has played that certain side. At this point of the month where rank reset is about to hit id say if the killer is ash graded still they shouldnt go against iri graded survivors. Obviously those survivors have been playing more this month that the killer has, and that to my eyes makes the match making broken.
0 -
This month. They've quite a few games this month. If you play the game again on Monday, you'll be facing a bunch of ash rank players because of the reset.

This ^ Thank you. I don't care about skill match up- I don't play killer at all to be getting iridescent survivors.
