Should 2v8 be Killer or Survivor sided?

I mean, I just think that good game design is balancing it for both sides…

If it had to favor one side, could you pick?

Killer
It should be balanced, but if must to choose, its killer side, 8 minute games in killer side mode is better than a 3 minute games in gen rush

Definately should be survivor sided, right now I would say it almost in perfect place. Why?
1. Queues. It's probably the only way to find additional 4 survivors to build a match.
2. MMR doesn't exist here. I mean, MMR already works so bad to the point it almost doesn't exist, but in 2v8 you can see this little difference which MMR creates. You are in the team with and against potatoes almost every match.
3. I think it also leaves a room for killers be fun with all buffs.
4. Let survivors who don't want to learn the game feel like a winners more often.
5. This mode feels really chaotic and I don't want to see everything be balanced here.1 -

Could this also not apply to Killers who are also new? Or is just new Survivors should just get given free wins without needing to learn anything?
I personally don't believe anyone should get to win matches with next to no experience as it means if they see a victory more than loss they won't be incentivised to learn anything1 -

I completely agree, but there is base game for it. If 2v8 was the base game, honestly, there wouldn't be much to learn. Much less skill and knowledge is required here to win. I mean, this is what most survivors want: not to invest a lot and win more regardless of their skill, level of knowledge and experience. Why not let most of the players have the opportunity to feel this fresh air for them?
And I respect your question, because I hate this hypocrisy towards new killer players, because pretty much always by "new player" we mean "poor little survivor player" and never think about new killer players, but it's fair at some point. Because game is killer sided in low level and new survivor needs to learn slightly more than new killer player.
Game exists for 8 years and more than half of survivors barely understand what they are playing at, so, at this point, it's pointless to expect from every Sable player with 3k hours that she will begin to look behind while running, at 4k hours, so why just don't give them a sweet spot to exist?1 -

It should be slightly survivor sided. The queues would be terrible if it swinged heavily towards killer.
Not much, though. I don't want it to become the opposite problem.

Slightly survivor sided.
The last thing that should happen is to make it killer sided and make the queue time problem even worse.
