If you could see that the lobby was a full SWF would you dodge?

Like the title says, would you lobby dodge if you could see that the entire group was a 4 man SWF?

    If a whole lobby is a toxic sfw, why dodge? Abuse the fact that they would save eavhother no matter what.

    If they bring more then two medkits or toolboxes. They geet an ebony mori, I have over 300 of them I could use.

    It depends on what killer i'm playing or if i have the patience at that time.

    no. but as survivor playing against a 3-swf i would dodge to many toxic ppl out there :)

    I feel like this question is a bit too vague because there's a big difference between a squad of lower-level, newer players and a squad with full meta perk load-outs and rare items.

    But personally, I prefer not to dodge because it means doubling my queue time lol.

    Why would I? Swf is part of the game.

    Toxic people I would dodge, but not friends just playing together

    I'd just play Spirit.

    You will never get here a correct Poll Result because all the Survs here are going to vote NO and the majority of the Killer Mains will vote for YES. Now ask yourself are there more Killer Mains or Survivor Mains :)

    Clearly more Killer Mains in this Forum. Just look at the Threads, lol.


    @Topic:

    Nope. But I will get an Ebony, just in case its a toxic SWF.

    "You will never get here a correct Poll Result"

    Never thought I would. The errors you pointed out are what I am expecting.

    It was more out of curiosity to see if I was right.

    I’m no Killer main, but I would at least try my best against a SWF.

    I wouldn't dodge but i certainly wouldn't bring any perks that rely on a lack of communication.

    Still don't understand why the devs won't just give everyone equal communications to swf and balance around that. Currently they're stuck either hurting solos to nerf swf or buffing the hell out of swf to help solos.

    Wouldn't be a problem if all solos were swf level and perks/mechancics were balanced around that.

    In certain circumstances I would. And I bet a lot of people saying no actually would as well. It's like hard camping or teabagging. Everybody likes to act like they never do it but secretly many do.

    Even if I hate toxic people. A SWF team is a bunch of players with friends. Besides it takes a lot of time to find a match as a killer.

    I think the problem is that the poll is getting a lot of people who play at lower ranks where the SWF groups aren't really an issue as well.

    Although the devs always did intend to have the SWF option in the game, it was never actually balanced around it. This is why I don't view SWF as any different than a killer using speed hacks. Yes one is allowed and the other isn't, but both are forcing you to play an unfair game that isn't balanced. So although the intentions are different the end results are the same. You also know that if the survivors could see ahead of time that the lobby killer they had was a speed hacker they would all dodge as well. That's kind of the point I'm coming from.

    Knowing that they are SWF would give me the option to make a proper build for the killer I want to play as

    And I don't want to wait 15 minutes for another lobby

    I am proud to say I have never lobby dodged ever from day one. I love swf and most of the time they look tough when in truth they aren't.

    They have the right to play the game as I do.

    In my personal opinion, I prefer to avoid swf because in most of the cases I find, they prefer to gen rush and be toxic, instead of playing fair in order for both parties to have fun and get more blood points.

    Not dodging, but I am surely switching to Nurse with Ruin if I see them bringing toolboxes.

    Nope, but mostly because it's sometimes hell to even get into a game as killer on PS4. I'll take the odds of them maybe playing like a bunch of dinguses.

    Never left the lobby. But dont know why...... they deserve it, most times using voice parties... but come on, some extra difficult for killers, and more chance to be tbagged, are aways welcome...
