If we got this information we could see how the game is truly balanced...
I would like to see the devs or whoever has access to statistics to release the kill rates of the top 1% of killers (killer players with the highest kill rate regardless of rank.) Against the top 1% of survivor players (survivors who escapes the most regardless of rank.)
If we could get this information we would know the true kill rate of killers at the currently highest possible skill in the game.
EDIT: Top 1% of each individual killer against the top 1% survivors of course.

For that to be meaningful they would have to be matched against each other several times, which is unlikely given the players' pool and how matchmaking works (or doesn't work).
Well yes, you would have to look at the top 1% of survivors say over a time period of 6 months and see how many times they survive against the top 1% of killers during that time period. And from that kill rating you would get a pretty good descripton of how each killer is truly balanced.
They would actually need a working matchmaker for that. And lately, its been rainbow rank after rainbow rank. Not to mention how often is there a lobby of 4 top survivors vs 1 top killer? I'm sure there are plenty of lobby's that a top killer and 1 top survivor but all its takes is 1 bad player, then everyone's on a hook.
That is exactly my point, freddy is now rumoured to be nerfed because the top 1% of freddy killers have an absurdly high kill rate against ALL survivors, not the best survivors just survivors in general. If we reverse that logic and pit the best survivors against ALL nurses she has an incredibly low kill rate. So nerfing a killer on flawed biased stats is not the way to balance the game in my opinion.
But heck i might be totally wrong here and we should balance the game for casuals... Casual survivors that is tho.
