Low Rank Killer Teir List AKA the only list where nurse isn't the top
As someone who has spent quite a bit of time in the lower ranks, (sub rank 10) I thought I'd share my thoughts on which killers are the best to play in these ranks (assuming you have the skill level of these players, special notes will be made for each killer if nesseccary) Things I keep in mind, ease of ability use, Ability effectiveness towards inexperienced players, and General place in the "meta"
S(pirit) tier: The Spirit, The Hillbilly. These two killers have easy and powerful abilities to use. Even if you can't use them to get grabs/downs respectively, they provide great mobility options.
A tier: The Hag, The Nightmare, The Demogorgan. Notice what these guys have in common, teleportation. Getting from one part of the map to the other in a instant is powerful. The Nightmare and The Demogorgan have decent secondary abilities aswell. The Hag basically guarantees a free hit on unaware survivors.
B tier: The Pig, The Legion, The Doctor, The Plague. Surprised to see legion this far up? So am I. These killers have massive stall potential and can keep survivors preoccupied. The best thing you can do in low ranks is keep survivors off gens by either putting pressure on survivors or punishing them for going gens.
C tier: The Trapper, The Wraith, The Nurse, The Huntress, The Clown, The Ghostface, The Shape. These killers are either average or their ability is hard to use effectively. Nothing too special here. Yes the Nurse is C tier.
D tier: The Cannibal. Not even low ranks could save you Bubba. They are even worse in low ranks.
Remember this are my personal opinions and is meant to serve as a guide for low rank players
