Players should be allowed to feel good about being high MMR and having good matches. I reiterate the point about lobby times - they're fine if you're waiting for better team mates. Even if it's 10-15 minutes.
Hopefully devs don't take years to turn MMR on.

Background (almost 6k hours across a few different platforms)
The proposed changes to matchamking have been very encouraging. These are probably the best changes to the game since I can remember and I say this as someone critical of the devolopers.
For the first time ever I'm being matched with survivors who play similiarly to me. They understand the game well and make intelligent in game decisions. For 24 hours I didn't have to boost other survivors who have no idea what they're doing or just shouldn't be in my survivor lobby. Now killers can actually have challenging games instead of brainlessly 4king against mixed rank survivor teams.
The Devs should understand that a lot of players are happy to wait in lobbys for better team mates. This is FINE and shouldn't be dismissed. At a high level the game should be more competitive. Even if the devs ignored this the players playing those games would not. The only difference is that the lobbies are mixed ranked instead of being based on similar skill ability. It isn't fun to go against an experienced killer with team mates who understand the game less. A lot of the playerbase do not play the game causally, I'm not sure why this is even controverisal at this stage in the games cycle. Getting team mates who match your skill is a central point of matchmaking and it has been ignored for years.
Killers will complain because they are having challenging matches. No they are complaning because they are going up against survivors who are as good or better at the game then them. With MMR actually functioning like it did in the test killers won't be able to brainlessly 4k against survivors who make less mistakes. Most people don't realise that the devopers are trying to balanced the game for a 2k. These games should be sweaty and challenging, And if they're not you should lose MMR and be matched with lesser players. It's that simple. That's how MMR balances itself out.
I doubt I'll be able to continue playing this game with solo team mates given how bad this mixed matchmaking system currently is.
No one can rebut the points I've made about MMR being good and healthy for the game because the point of matchmaking is to put similarly skilled survivors in the same lobbies against killers on that MMR.
Developers hurry up and turn on MMR again. Turn it on for a month or indefinitely.

The decision to ban Spirit and Nurse is based off the frequency of those killers in tournaments appearing. Given that our tournament will be streamed, we agreed it did not make interesting content to have X amount of teams play the same killer over and over.
The nurses who have entered tournaments that we know of are some of the best on the system.
