Replace [Realm Selection Offerings] with {Realm Avoidance Offerings}.
Currently Realm Selection Offerings allow you to burn them for a CHANCE of going to a specific realm. This is flawed.
~ For one if all 5 players use the same level of RS Offering, each for a different realm, 4 of them will have wasted their offering. This is annoying.
~ Secondly it's unfair from a game balance standpoint. Some realms are skewed heavily in either the Killers or Survivors favor and allowing a given realm to be "forced" can make for an unfun game for one party.
~ And Thirdly, you still have a very slim chance of not getting the realm you wanted.
Replacing Realm Selection Offerings with a Realm Avoidance Offering allows for greater fairness and balance. Using a RA Offering would remove the associated realm from selection. Even if multiple players use them it won't feel like you wasted an offering nor would it allow for skewed realms to be selected and with a 100% chance it would always work.
Currently if all 5 players were to use an RA Offering for different realms it would remove 5 from that games selection, this would still leave 15 other realms to choose from.
And if desired they could even be made reusable given there isn't any "competition" with their use, unlike RS Offerings.

I just think that the unused offerings (or a Sacrificial Ward that does not counter any offering) return to their owners. This already happens when multiple shrouds are used.
I think that the offerings should get reworked to only a handful of map types they represent.
For example: Licensed, dark, bright, outdoor, indoor.
This way a stealth killer or a killer with a more stealthy build could still get an indoor map for their build, but they would not know if they will get Lèry's, The Game, Hawkins, RPD or Midwich.
It would be unfair for killers or survivors with fun builds not to choose something that works with it.
Have you ever played Mirror Myers on Red Forrest because some survivors decided to choose that map? It's horrible. So if they would choose your idea then builds like this would be dead, because you can only avoid 1 realm as killer whereas you can avoid 4 as Survivor. And guess what: The Game would definitely be on that list.
