If my heartrate tops 110 or if I laugh/smile at all in the match.

As a survivor if you escape you won, as killer anything above 2 kills is a win.

Escape

Being a hero.

Killer:

Killing an annoying survivor

More than two kills or more than two survs escaped works for me. Hatch is ehhhhhh.

Having accounts created to farm removed.

Being in a healthy enough mindset to not get tilted, or at least knowing when to stop playing if I do.

Killer - kill at least three survivors.

Survivor - escape

killer: 3k + hatch (hatch after all gens have been done = loss, 3k+gate escape is also a loss) or 4k.

survivor: soloQ=escape; SWF=3-men escape at least

yea i'm strict but honestly, i don't play for my wincon often, usually i end up just throwing matches for clips T_T

Kills. I am a man of the old faith, when killing survivors was not something shameful. I am not tired of playing like that. The only thing is that I have a gradation of how much I want to kill. Depends on the killers and builds.

Getting a bit of everything done - winning chases, saving or hooking survivors, completing or preventing gens.

Also getting value out of perks is satisfying

Majority of killers: 3k
Weak killers: 2k

SWF: 3 escapes
SoloQ: 1 escape (with finished gens)
and just have a good chase

As survivor : Escaping myself

As killer : If a survivor escapes through the gates after completing the gens i find it to be a loss. Everything else i find to be a win, including if they open the gates but then i stop them with blood warden or something.

for survivor, I consider it a win if either I escape or if at least 2 others escape and i die in the endgame

For killer, 2-4 kills. I honestly think 2 kill games are the most fun/tense matches so I'm not mad if I only get 2 kills

As Survivor, I want my teammates to escape if we're at endgame. If we made it this far, they deserve help and I'm happy to be the sacrifice.

This is the last 3 minutes of a match I was in yesterday (normal SoloQ, not chaos) and the best game I've had in a while.

Ggs to my teammates and ggs to Myers, I had such a good game, and I love these down to the wire matches where it can go either way.

What I consider a "win" is really subjective.

Like as a killer, generally speaking it's a 3K (for an average match).

But if I'm playing say, Myers on Red Forest vs. a SWF, a 2K feels a whole lot like a win, lol. On the other end of the spectrum, if I'm playing as Spirit on Haddonfield versus a grab bag of solo survs, anything less than a 4K (or 3K and a hatch/mercy) feels like a failure.

And everything in between. In my personal calculus, if the team I am facing is clearly a strong SWF (and I don't think these are common), I factor in that I am playing at a disadvantage. I also consider the map and the killer I am playing when self-assessing.

Or if the team I am facing is clearly a bag of potato sprouts and I just toy with them and let a couple go, I consider that a win because I had total control of the match (though a waste of everyone's time due to bad SBMM).

There are just too many variables in this game to have an iron clad win condition, imo.

Survivor is also subjective (disclaimer: I play strictly solo queue). If I play really well, make some plays, get 3-4 iri emblems (or score the highest) and die, that still feels like a win. Especially if 2-3 of my teammates escape.

If I could have escaped but go back in to help someone and die in the process but they escape, I also feel like that's a win.

If I don't contribute much (either because I played like cheeks or I just didn't have the opportunity) but escape, that doesn't feel much like a win. Feels pretty meh, really, like the chips just happened to fall my way.

If I escape and my teammates die but I feel like I did everything I could (within reason) to help them, I feel like that's a win.

But more than anything as a surv, it's down to the fun, as cliché as that is.

I don't view this game in terms of winning and losing. For me, there's escaping and sacrificing. My goal is always to do those things, but as long as the game was fun, I don't care if I get a 1k or get sacrificed.

So as killer, my goal is to give the survivors a good match and make them feel like the killer is a threat. I have to admit that if a team gave me a 0k, I'd probably feel a need to go again and do a better job, but I still don't view a 4k as a win or a 0k as a loss. The biggest win for me is when I perform well and my opponents didn't hate the game. We get to the endgame lobby and people are doing alright :)

As survivor, I want to escape, but I'm happy to take wild risks for myself to get a teammate out. However, I avoid situations that will make more survivors put themselves at risk to save me. As long as a killer didn't hard tunnel, slug for 4k, or send me out with a mori, I'm happy. But a significant number of my games have at least one of those things, so although I don't feel that I win or lose, I don't find those matches rewarding.

chases

pulling clutch moments or plays

popping a gen in the Knick of time that otherwise would of cost the match

Saving the other guy in 2v1 to give us both a chance, because while I respect the killer , ultimately I have never leave a man behind if I can help it behavior; it’s really awesome when they return the favor if I got hooked because I risked it for them instead of waiting for them to die, it’s more fun to at least try than stand around.

confusing a killer so much at a loop that I can just basically pull a magic trick and get out of dodge without going down because I made their head spin because I won the mind game,

if I’m laughing because I’m just clowning with the killer or other survivors on my team, and obviously gates, hatch does nothing for me and I hate it to a great degree because the environment interactions on both sides. The only time I want to take it is when the killer straight up gives me the pass to go through it, after I’m the last man standing and offered myself to the hook. Idk I feel some kind of weird debt from how much they got straight up bullied in the past because I was on the 4mans and just didn’t really like the way 4mans treated a single player, it’s another reason why I mostly solo now, plus I just like earning mutual respect I guess.

When people risk their neck for me because I body blocked and successfully made myself the target while the killer was trying to tunnel them, even though I had to give them a free health state, because they like to pick on the weaker person and won’t consider anyone else unless they’re a one hit, they usually suck at chase because they’re taking half of them from playing off unhooks. Imagine getting your ankles broke by Dwight running prove thyself, leader, and bond , no fourth perk, with a brown medkit no add ons, not even trying to give you a hard time. You honestly can’t consider buffing some of these killers without buffing soloQ, they’ll get absolutely ate up once they go higher from the helping hand if there’s not something there to cushion that. I mean or you could consider buffing them and not touching solo, but I wouldn’t recommend it. That’s just my hot take though I guess. Sorry getting off topic.

Killer - 3K, quite simple. Anything above (4K or no Gates open) is bonus.

Survivor - either if I escape AND at least one another Survivor escapes as well (so 2 Escapes including me) or if I die and the three others escape.
