Why are the fun Killers so bad?
Killers like Demo, Blight, Bubba, Doctor, Wraith, Nurse, Billy and Pig are so fun to play against... but most of the time the people playing these guys don't know what they're doing. It's so sad because I always escape those matches knowing that the person playing the fun Killer is probably gonna swap to Deathslinger, Spirit or Freddy next match.

Good question Pyramid Head was fun for awhile now it's just alot of work to play him plus with all the nerfs he's just not fun to play as anymore.

Out of the killers you listed Nurse and Blight have a huge skill ceiling, Nurse on a more extreme case as she cannot work without her power and not every player wants to dedicate the hours it takes to master them.
Most of the first list are middle of the pack with the exception of Wraith, that has an easy to use kit more fit to new killers. More experienced players tend to transition to other killers that allow for more mechanical skill expression or to killers like Freddy that are low risk high reward and have a nice time.
Deathslinger is a peculiar case as people with previous experience in FPS can easily make use of his kit.
Spirit? ######### Spirit.

There are many people that don't know what they're doing playing slinger or spirit as well regardless if you think those two are unfun or not. Freddy is understandable though.

Doctor is easy af to play as, so facing one is very annoying imho. Though I do wish I'd see to see more and better Pigs, Demos, Mikey, and Ghostface. Since people love to get campy with them, especially Michael.

Because "fun" killers struggle against competent survivors.

From OP, that's not true. I don't struggle as Doctor with non-meta perks, and I always get a 3-4k. (No pop, ruin, bbq, undying, or corrupt.) As Pig, depending if ruin stands until midgame (again no undying, pop, or corrupt) I can pull off a 2-3k which is still a win to me because if the team put up a tough fight, it's a well deserved GG WP play that made the match intense and fun.
Actually even today as Clown (using hindered add-on with pop, bbq, noed, and thana) I had a match with 2 people ended up dcing and I killed 2 Blendettes without noed. The match after, same build, addon but with the pinky finger, I got a 3k against good survivors. .. Since Clown is known to be a weak killer.
Then after that I had 2 people kill themselves on hook in Hawkins when I played as Pig so I BP farmed with the other two survivors.
My point is: "Weak" killers can be fun if you use good addons, but sadly when you do, people DC cause they don't like the killer or the map. So that ruins the experience trying to play as the more fun killers.

What is a unfun killer for you? Im not sure but i guess its a killer with little counterplay.
Because when you want to win against good survivor you need a killer who ends a chase fast without depending on what the survivor does.
But this is obviously no fun for survivor. Its normal that you want to escape the chase. Most survivor think they are not playing well when they dont escape in a chase or when the chase doesnt last very long. This mindset is most of the time true when you play soloQ.
