In the DBD community it’s commonly excepted that ranks are pointless as you can easily 4K the opposing team and still lose and as a survivor you can all die and still win.
So the win condition is busted, worthless, isn’t even valued by the devs, and the community commenly excepts that ranks are not the win condition because of these reasonable problems so the phrase “who cares about ranks” is common.
So let’s say who cares about Defuses
A. They punish sniper shots
B. Make the Pred completely op as he can just suicide in a corner if he thinks he’s going to lose (op in a draw, not win)
C. They have no actual merit on the actual PVP, you know the importance part about this game
D. Doesn’t make sense lore wise
E. Is used as a cheap escape goat by preds to say ha you didn’t win (no offense)
So…
Who cares about defuses
