Well It Was Nice To Revisit The Old Days
You had the right matchmaking test right here. Should stick with this one BHVR it's nice for both sides being able to chill and not have a stressful time. There could be more Killer players and some Survivor players would want to maybe try Killer cause I still see people saying I don't want to try Killer it looks to stressful this could help those players want to consider killer.

I respect your opinion but last 2 days was worst for me.
New players should not face with exp players, this is bad matchmaking.
We need better balance. Devs should focus on this. So all killer can be viable at all ranks/mmr.

Grade-based MM is the literal exact opposite of that. It was complete one sided stomps. How is that reasonable?

Those were my worst days! I know everyone's going to have had a "your mileage may vary" experience with a given day, but when the matchmaking was based on grades I went from a generally competent, middling killer, to a god amongst killer-kind, mercilessly grinding survivors into dust with pretty much zero effort. It was boring and I felt bad for doing it. I stopped bringing my preferred perks and moved to playing killers I had nearly no experience with, which was fine, but I definitely recall days before SBMM where I would similarly just mow through survivors to the point where I just wasn't having any fun. I'd like to be able to play the killers I am finessed with without making inexperienced (or inebriated?) survivors miserable in the process!

Reports of one-sided matches started flooding in
did you just post their results and then made up your own result and disregarded what they actually said?

“I want to be able to win more easily by playing against weaker players.”

"nice for both sides"
"with the highest skill levels rocketing up to roughly 80% (>3 kills per match on average) and plummeting to around 20% (<1 kill per match on average) on the lower end of the spectrum."
if you think new/unexperienced players becoming a chew toy for you is a good thing, sure
that test was boring, I was playing against very low skilled players which made matches super easy and made me feel bad for these players

that's what they mean by "having a good time"
they want easy survivors and 4k all games so they have fun
I say that as being a main killer myself

It literally mentions that there were one sided matches with an average of 3k, with 1k being the average on the lower end.
Although they expected for people to settle into their proper ranks eventually all it would take to ruin this proper matchmaking would be to take a break from the game and later return to be matched with the noobs again.
They described it as something that can be done very easily in the text you highlighted so I'd expect this behavior to be rampant.

Two things.
First, people love to say that grade based matchmaking pairs up new and experienced people against one another, but have any of you played with SBMM? It's literally the same #########, baby survivors are going up against nurses that 4k in 2 minutes and 4 stack SWFs utterly annihilate killers that don't even have all of their perk slots unlocked. The SBMM system does not work and it doesn't even solve the problem people claim it is solving. It literally does the exact opposite and with the new changes it's going to be even more a lax system, allowing for all those Nurses and Blights to 4k with even less effort.
Two, this was an incredibly cheap and horrible way to "test" grade based matchmaking. The point of that system was that you only lost one grade bracket every reset, separating the rank 1s from the rank 15s. With the current system resetting everyone to 20 anyhow, it was never going to be a representative test and just shows that the devs are willing to bend the facts in their favor so that their utter thrash SBMM seems viable.
