This is nothing against Dwights or Sables, but why is it that, more often than not, when one of y'all are in my matches, that I get screwed over? Where are all the good Dwights and Sables? Like, it's not just them, just had a match against Pyramid Head where both Sable and Feng chose to stop working on generators entirely once we got to one gen, leading to everyone but the Feng dying - but still. What is with my luck, man?

    Sable is the most popular original survivor due to her being the first and only time they went all out trying to make an attractive character. And since so many people play as her, that also includes some of the worst players in the game, so the chances of getting a bad sable ia fairly high compared to other characters.

    As for dwight its probably the higher chance of it being a newer player seeing as hes the first starting character, or people that don't take playing survivor seriously due to his goofier cosmetics.

    I always hope the default-cosmetic Dwights in my lobbies are just pros pretending to be baby survivors because surely the amazing matchmaking system isn't putting me with someone who just got the game and I'm almost always disappointed.

    I've seen some pretty cracked Dwights. TBH more often than not the ones I get in my lobbies are decent.

    I think a lot of it is confirmation bias. We have one super negative experience with a certain skin or killer and now we use subconsciously use that to compare other encounters we have with the same skin/killer. Killer can be a bit different, as certain playstyles are attached to certain killers because they benefit greatly from it because of how they work (like slugging with twins) whereas survivors are literally just skins so it’s not nearly as consistent. (Aside from free characters)

    I am a Dwight defender as I just love him terribly but I also do tend do defend all free characters more than others as not everyone has the money to buy for some different skin, and so it’s a shame when such negative expectations are put upon them. But I do understand that everyone has personal experiences as well. Hopefully you encounter a Sable and Dwight that bring some good to your future games!

    Sables tend to be simps so they tend to be spared, leaving you to be killed.

    I find that in 95% of the games that I play it is in fact the opposite. It is almost as if the killers has a fetish for Sable, and wants to tunnel her a lot.

    Theres the idea that sables are bad so killers go for them if they can.
