Anyone else escaping MUCH more often in Chaos Shuffle trials?

I’m a solo queue survivor and in the vanilla game mode I probably escape between 25-35% of the time depending on the day. I don’t use meta perks (other than maybe Distortion? Not sure it’s meta but I see it whined about a lot). I’m still playing solo and generally not getting very good perks but have found myself escaping 50-60% of trials in Chaos Shuffle?

    Gen defense is more important than things to help in survivors in chase. U literally win matches off pop/pain res. windows, SB, DH, lithe, etc these strong chase perks isn't mandatory. Outside of DS no survivor perk is mandator to run to win. I'm assuming everyone win rate higher as survivor. My survivor rate up to 45% from 30% and my kill rate still sit around 80% (i rarely use gen defense when playing killers normally anyway). I don't won't go back to normal solo q ever tbh

    Can't say I've noticed any difference, other than an increase in drawn out 5 gen blowouts. I've had several matches that feel like they've been at least 10 minutes long but we are still dead at 5 gens lol

    I thought gens would have gone faster but oh well

    It's kinda the same for me honestly, just less needing to stress as killer.

    It does highlight optimizing gens is still superior, and survivors not touching gens is still a problem.

    I'm interested to see what you'd gauge your skill to be at, because I'm a high skill survivor and a medium skill killer, and I've been winning way more matches as killer but only a tiny bit more as survivor. There's quite a few as survivor where I'll experience a tunneling/camping killer and braindead teammates, but that makes sense since there's no SBMM.

    Can't say I've noticed I'm escaping more personally, but I have noticed an increased in games ending in a draw. I'm seeing more 2ks than 3 or 4ks. But the killers in said games also haven't been playing aggressively. I've seen some people say they're seeing lots of tunnelling and camping. In my games though, I haven't seen tunnelling but have seen an increase in proxy camping whereby the killer then goes after the unhooker. There'd be more 3 and 4ks if they went after the unhooked but they dont seem to care about that. It's almost like most killers I'm seeing are just playing casually and don't care to chase the 4k. There have been exceptions of course but just in general.

    I think I have been escaping around 50% of my matches as survivor in Chaos Shuffle. A stark contrast to the measly 20-25% I usually have in normal play

    I'd say I'm escaping less overall, but the difference might just be random chance.

    I guess it depends on when and where one plays from

    People play differently depending on previous matches, what happened to them that day ETC…

    10 mins... now what's not true at all 4- 5 mins at most if your matches are lasting 10 mins there's a major skill issue on both sides

    About 50/50.

    Played clown 4 games.

    First game got 3k with hatch escape.

    Second game 2k.

    Third game zero k - gens went so fast it was unbelievable.

    Fourth game 2k

    So as I said 50/50.

    uhh… well… I probs played around 40 matches and I escaped three. Two through the gate, one through hatch. Could have escaped one more but felt compelled to attempt the rescue. But that still comes out at … less than 10% :kek:

    Having a blast on killer though 🤗

    This mode is a real mixed bag for me. When it's fun it's really fun, but I'm also finding it to be the worst possible experience of playing the game (for both sides). Played 3 miserable games today and I'm already calling it a day. Nothing but the sweatiest Killers playing to win with no reasonable match-making happening at all.

    Mind you I'm talking from the survivor side my escape rate has doubled thanks to chaos shuffle talk about MMR all you want ain't gonna matter when the killer gets looped by a decent looper gens fly thanks to slowdowns being nonexistent the big gripe is every killer just tunnels and camps now to get the best value

    I have been FARMING the survivor achievements I had put off during this event. A killer loading into a bad map with no slowdowns is facing an uphill battle.

    If anything I've had worse experiences. Killers camp / tunnel x100 and teammates seem to play urban evasion simulator more

    Ofc, against people from your skill range its impossible to win without slowdowns

    Matchmaking has me on a 6 game no-escape streak right now as survivor in Chaos Shuffle, so I would answer in the negative with my anecdotal experience.
