Killer just isn't fun
I hit rank 12 again after not playing for like 2 year and ever since its been a minimum of 2 red or purple ranks and 2 greens but alot of 3 red and purple and like a yellow. So I started paying attention and outnof the last 20 it been 15 matches like this where at least half the team is way out of my skill level and I never see the lower level ones because there super immersed. I keep playing like the next cant be like that but it is I even do pip into yellow and I'm still getting the same matches. Its not even fun when half the team is way above your skill and get blown out make no BP which makes the grind even more insane. It just stops becoming fun

Yeah, unfortunately killer is the least fun/most stressful role in the game. Thats just how it is.
When it boils down to its 4 on 1, 4 loadouts against your single loadout and theres like, a 95% chance that you're power isnt that great either, especially for a new player coming back.
My advice? Run an anti loop killer and a meta build for every match you play, because from here on out thats what the survivors are gonna do. Do NOT try to be creative with your builds. Do NOT try to have fun, because you won't.
Edit: Forgot, in case you don't know which killers are anti-loop, Nurse, Deathslinger, Nemesis, and Huntress all have decent anti loop.
Executioner, Demogorgon, Pig, and Trickster can be utilized for Anti Loop as well, but its much more difficult to pull off.

It's not fun when you try to win in a game with factually terrible matchmaking, in a game that is not balanced.
It is fun when you just try to have fun. Try not focusing on rank or what the survivors say to you.

New to game and new to forums, and i've been posting this very same thing for 2 days. All the while, we have the Survivors posting how they don't like things that Killers do for points and even suggesting "Participation Awards" for those survivors in an SWF that get caught and hooked and face-camped.

I get the exact same match making. The second I hit green ranks, it's 1-3 red rank survivors in every game. I guess there just aren't enough red rank killers for the overflow, so they get shunted from platinum to silver.

Right. Thats why i only play Spirit with red addons, Noed and Mori.

I'm trying but I don't have full meta on any of my killers I have some of them spread out amongst killers but not one really has a full meta build so I lose kind of bad and get no points which makes the grindy grind grinder

See I think killer is WAY more relaxing. I do what I do and that's that. I don't have to worry about finding totems, rescuing survivors, potato survivors, immersed survivors, etc etc etc... I just go out and try to sacrifice people. I earn way more bloodpoints as a killer because I know I can spread my tasks out into the different emblems. When I am a survivor it is either focus on gens...or focus on being chased. As a survivor it is hard for me each month to get back to rank 1 - hard meaning it takes about 3-4 sessions. With killer I am back to rank 1 in 1-2 sessions easily each month.

I just keep getting these stacked teams I've played another 4 and all 2+ red or purple and I've even dep pipped to 14 i don't understand. I play survivor im also rank 12 and I get greens and yellows that are mostly potato. I don't get why I can't get some of those when I'm killer

I'm a purple survivor and I get all the red rank killers, at first I thought there were not enough killers out there, then I found out the lower-ranked killers were being matched to the high ranked survivor. The matchmaking is just.... meh.

If you think Survivor is easier, you clearly don't get how this game is a 4v1, and that means that the odds are stacked in the former's favour.

It makes it not fun when half the team is way more experienced and skilled plus full meta. Leaving those players to alone is free gens but I don't have the experience to outplay them is its kind of a waste to put to much time into them

Agreed. Once I hit r1 for the achievement I stopped caring about my rank. The ranking system in this game is terrible and does not reflect skill.
As for OPs post. Sadly killer is the minority. When 4 people are sitting in que long enough, MM is only concerned with finding them a match. It doesn't care if they are higher skilled than you. Hence why BHVR is constantly pumping out chapters with new killers. They can't keep that part of the player basis. Fresh meat for the grinder.

Where did I say that? I actually said the opposite. Reading is fundamental. I find killer relaxing and less stressful. Your comment makes no sense in relation to mine.

And that is basically why we are getting mmr. Unfortunately, from what I hear, they announced it like 2 years ago. So maybe another 2 year break is necessary until they figure out how to keep it in the main game? Or whatever the supposed issue is.

Me too, after a night of getting rolled and barely earning any bloodpoints, nothing beats switching over to killer and taking it easy

I find it the opposite. I like playing killer more its just not fun at some point

If I were you, I'd swap to survivor side for a while. The experience will also come in handy for when you go back to killer. Heres what you should do:
Play as many survivor matches as you can, swf or solo que, it doesnt matter.
Save your iri shards. You'll need them for the shrine of secrets, either to get your hands on more meta perks, or just more bloodpoints.
Do your rituals. Self explanatory.
Complete the tutorial if you havent already. Free bloodpoints.
Run bloodpoint farming builds on killer/survivor.
Then, you need to pick a killer and STICK WITH IT all your bloodpoints, and I mean all of them into that web.
Do these things, and you will not only have what you need to take on arduous red rank play, but also the means to use survivor tricks against them.

Survivor is getting boring as well. This game in general is just losing it's touch.

I am responsible for my actions and my actions alone.
Playing survivor; especially since I do it 99% of the time solo - you often get pitted into either gen jockey or looper. This can make it harder to pip/safety pip (which is what I measure success by). As a killer it is WAY easier to work on all 4 emblems - thus making it easier to safety pip/pip. I enjoy the chase aspect of killer a lot! I just find killer way more fun and relaxing. And yes I am a rank 1 killer - have been for 4.5 years. I play about 55% of the time as killer out of 3700 hours. I play: Doctor, Pig, and Huntress mainly with a little dabbling in Hag, Plague, and Clown.
