SWF
Love how the game has become impossible for killers against a SWF. Like there are so many ways out of everything not a single killer is viable if you can't play Nurse.

It might feel that way but not true. Good game sense and perks go a long way. Sure weaker killers will struggle against efficient survivors, it's like that for everybody.
Punish altruism as it's swf's biggest weakness. Some losses are going to be unavoidable no matter what.
It's never anyone's own fault when they lose.
Sometimes you can get steamrolled and there wasnt much you could do, there are mistakes always nobody playes perfect clean hitting every range attack or daśh attack or winning every mind game etc.
If you get good swf on killer you have samm experience with or weaker killer then the outcome could be already decided in the lobby it just happens and it will happen even with better mmr.
Sometimes there isnt much you can punish if they dont leave open windows for that like with weaker killers against good survivors 2-3 missed attacks or lost mind games can totaly change the outcome ofm the match DBD isnt consistent game if it was everyone would play in swf or played as nurse,blight to win.
There are many viable killers vs SWF. Who exactly do you play OP that you don't feel like you stand a chance, and what perks do you run
I dont understand why people still come up with this false claim every once in while, though we have a bunch of evidence thats this is just a lie.
So you did not improve a single bit and blame SWF for your losses? Even after 5 years?
Try to look at your own gameplay and if you REALLY, REALLY cannot do anything better. And I am very sure that you will notice that you were not playing as good as possible. And I can only repeat what I have written there already:
"If you really think it is completely impossible to win against SWFs, you are probably not good at playing Killer.
I am a mediocre Killer at best and even I manage to 4K 4 man SWFs, because most SWFs are just casual groups. Unless you want to claim you go against tournament SWFs all the time, but this would be a pretty obvious lie."
And every word of this is true, even 5 years later.
Last time we got stats for 4 person SWFs their escape rate was 40%. Last time we got rates for high MMR only, it was 48%. They aren't running away with the game by any means.
Sometimes you can get steamrolled and there wasnt much you could do, there are mistakes always nobody playes perfect clean hitting every range attack or daśh attack or winning every mind game etc.Absolutely. And if people say 'I made a few mistakes here', or 'they played a great game', or 'well, it came down to a few 50/50s' - great. Wonderful even. If more people had a mindset like that the game would be in a much healthier place.
Except we get - SWFs are unbeatable.
If you get good swf on killer you have samm experience with or weaker killer then the outcome could be already decided in the lobby it just happens and it will happen even with better mmr.If one side sweats more than the other, they are going to have a huge advantage. That's true for both sides of the game. That's not a per se balance issue as the variable levels of 'sweatiness' is something BHVR has intentionally built into the game.
The majority of people even in a 4 person SWF aren't maximized hit squads who are going to blow 5 gens in as many minutes and 4 out you every time, and those groups really aren't exactly common, even after you hit soft cap. Sure, playing with other people has a lot of advantages - less reliance on information perks or items, active communication for things like saves, the ability to coordinate perks and strategies before a match etc. - but that doesn't make them unbeatable, especially for high tier killers. I also don't know why people just kind of…don't acknowledge the fact that a lot of people playing together aren't in 4 stacks all the time? There are a LOT of duo and trio queues in DBD, its not some binary switch between 4 solos and a full team.
Damn. 5 years and still didn't learn these "specific killers"
Yeah, 5 years would be more than enough to learn Nurse. Not that it takes that long to learn her or that you even need to learn her to win most games.
Balance wise if killers can beat top swfs then solo q would become ceomplete nightmare and pretty much pointless to even play. It happens to me too where I go against stacked swf with wglf/made for this or them sitting on gens and also being insane in chase. But now tell me how Pig who will most likely spend half the game getting single hit should be a killer in the same game where ghoul gets free hit from 20m just by pressing m2.
Swf is feared because theres higher chance they will be good and more efficient then soloq or they will sweat and go for win more in which they have more better tools to achieve compare to soloq.
Fact is if people could see in lobby if someone is playing sith some friend (swf) then majority of killers would doge these lobbies thats fact I would say, thats like knowing you have in your lobby very good player against you so though match is expected so majority wouldnt hit ready and be prepared mentaly for it they would just leave the lobby.
The one who throws first punch or shoots first has higher chance for success thats fact and usualy it goes this way so when one side pushes more it often gets advantage on the other.
I've come in the MMR brackets were I see only "TTV" in my matches…I literally can't play most of the killers if I want to win and have to rotate using the same 3 builds if I want to do anything…this is so lame…and all of this bc I mainly play survivor, win a lot so my matches as killers as ######### excruciating as I am trying to learn how to even play with 4 DS, 3 DH, 1 SB, 4 Shoulder the burden…like that's not even fun anymore. Why aren't mmr ranking separated between "factions" . And forget even TRYING to play on a d tier killer even I find them fun (gaze at my pfp) no gotta go Blight, Wesker, Jason or Nurse.
