Visible Ranks in the Lobby
I like that you can see the other Survivors' Ranks in the lobby now. So you can brace yourself or make a few last minute adjustments.
But I also would like to see the ranks as killer. I want to know if I have messed up Matchmaking or a rainbow swf. I want to know because gameplay is a lot different on different ranks. I would like to know if I can try stuff or if I should rather use my normal build because I have stronger opponents.
Of cause this would cause killers to dodge lobbies with mismatched ranks (getting purples as a yellow rank killer) but to be honest: these games are rarely fun at all. And I see myself playing not as much killer as before the MM changes from spring, because I get this stupid Matchmaking.
So even if you don't show ranks for the killer then fix at least the Matchmaker.

They won't do it because of the reason you stated: More dodging.
Ranks were visible at one point, and they were removed because of the dodging.
A long time ago you used to be able to see ranks as killer but it was removed because of killers dodging red rank games.
@Boss @skeletalbeings Well, I thought as much. But would you agree that MM needs a fix? Because I'm really sick of these matchups.
I just had a rank 6 together with a bunch below 15.
I was rank 14.
I agree they could work some more on matchmaking.
@Boss my record was as a rank 7 solo player I got a rank 20 killer. The others were around rank 10. I have seen Screenshots where a rank 1 killer got 4man rank 20s.
It'd be nice if, when viewing the lobby as killer, survivors with under a certain number of hours in the game were marked somehow.
I feel really crappy when I kill a survivor and then find out that for some reason the game put a rank 19 or 20 with like one tier 1 perk into my lobby. Instead of thinking they were an awful person for farming their teammate, I'd understand they were just new.
Yes seeing rank of killer would be nice as well
