Serious question: Are killer and survivor ranks linked together by the matchmaker

I’m a rank 5 survivor, rank 13 killer. I routinely face toxic af purple and red ranks as a yellow killer. Does the matchmaker tie your ranks together?


Btw, I’m really sick and tired of facing sore winner jerks!!

  • Not to my knowledge. As far as matchmaking is concerned, your killer rank and survivor rank are totally unrelated. However, there is a bug in the matchmaking system where the algorithm sometimes receives incorrect rank information from the killer (for instance, it may mistake a rank 15 killer for a rank 6 killer) and match them with survivors on that basis of the 'false' rank, creating games which are wildly mismatched. So that could be what you're experiencing.
