Details about the Top MMR in stats released?
@McDoobz said:
In June, we brought major changes to the game. At the time, we stated that one of the main objectives behind the meta-shifting perk overhaul and base gameplay changes was to improve the overall kill rate (how many Survivors are killed each trial, on average). As stated in our most recent stats post , we did achieve that goal and as you’ll see in the below graphs, the kill rate continues to hover around the 59% to 61% range (up from a 51% to 53% range).
In the context of this new meta, many of you have been expressing that you’d like to see where each killer’s kill rate now stands. So, we’ve compiled the most recent data to share with you.
We’ve created two charts to help you visualize and analyze these stats:
- The first chart represents the kill rate broken down by killer, for all players (all Matchmaking Ratings), for the period of September 2022.
- The second chart also represents the kill rate broken down by killer for the same period, but only for players in the top 5% MMR.
Some things to keep in mind as you consult these charts:
- We rounded up some of the kill rates to make the charts below easier to read (only values ≥ 0.95 were rounded up). Scroll past the charts for exact kill rate values for each data set.
- It’s worth noting that many factors are taken into account when it comes to balancing killer powers and character perks, not only data.
- As always, we are monitoring our overall game balance on an ongoing basis and taking your feedback into account when evaluating whether or not design changes should be made. So please keep sharing your thoughts and experiences with us! We read you daily and relay your feedback to the appropriate people on a regular basis.

We hope you enjoy studying these numbers as much as we do!

Does Top MMR in the statistics released mean across the total MMR bracket or only upto the Soft Cap of MMR? @McDoobz
Comments
The stats use actual MMR. The soft cap is only used for matchmaking purposes.
Thank you for confirming, that was what I assumed but I wasn't sure.
If you do have a chance, could you also answer my question about hyperfocus math? I have tried various ways of figuring out the calculations, I keep coming close but never completely on point.
Thanks again and have a good day! 🙂
Does it factor in people getting matched with those people? For example, let's say the soft cap is 1700. Technically a killer who is 1700 could be matched with a 2500 SWF kill squad. Is that still counted in these statistics? Or are we only looking at matches where the ACTUAL MMR is close?
Do you mean to ask if we're only looking at matches where the MMR of killer and survivors are close to each other? I wouldn't think so, I think we are just looking at matches where the average MMR is within the Top 5% of all matches.
Out of curiosity is the 1600 soft cap roughly also where the 5% bracket lands right now? My extremely speculative guess was the soft cap is around 6% assuming a normal distribution with mean 1000 and SD 400 but I've always kind of wondered if that's close. 🙂
There's no way the softcap is only 6%. Everyone and their mother is 1600+ on killer.
You're 100% wrong.
That is statistically impossible. It's a zero-sum game.
