'Fun' in Dead by Daylight

There is a problem that is increasingly getting worse and worse as time goes on in Dead by Daylight. The killers that have been released by behavior recently are very boring to be chased by. Deathslinger, pyramid head, and spirit are all very stale to be chased by. I don't believe I am the only one with this opinion and I have a lot of hours in this game on console (I'm almost devotion 4). These killers just have to brainlessly fake their powers and there is nothing you can do. (Maybe spirit is an exception to this). Spirit can somewhat be countered by walking but it isn't reliable and mostly a guess as to if she is actually phasing or not. Deathslinger counters a lot of loops and there is almost nothing you can do to survive on certain areas. The same occurs with Pyramid Head in my experience. If you drop a pallet you will be killed by his ability, if you don't drop the pallet you get hit anyway because he has no cool down after his power is canceled. I believe this problem was first introduced with legion before he was changed. Believe it or not, I don't believe these killers are overpowered. I only believe they are unfun to go against. Any killer, no matter how skilled, can be countered by genrushing. That is another problem entirely. More killers like Billy, huntress, and a few other killers are very fun and you actually feel like you on an even ground with the killer. This game isn't competitive and it should be treated as such, behavior should add things that are fun for both sides no matter how strong it is. (Nurse as an example)
