Some people do avoid playing so as not to damage their ELO, but like ehhhhh. It's more fun nonsense than it is anything else. Play for your Crazy scores instead, that's the way to go.

ELOs shouldn't be our standard of good Survivor play

That's what the character poll is for

Or what if there was a combined system like e-sports battle royale games?

Where you get points based on both kills (characer poll) and surviving the longest (winning the game)
