A weird MMR experience that happens often for me, which BHVR could fix maybe.
So sometimes when I play DBD, ill have consecutive bad games with a killer I'm not particularly good at, ill get disappointed and play my main and then steamroll some survivors who seem to have no clue how to play. I think MMR is to blame cause supposedly mmr goes down when I lose as killer, but the difference is so big for different killer that there ought to be a wider range depending on types of killers. Take my today three matches as an example:
Game 1: 'Hmm today i shall play Nemesis.'
- Survivors good at looping and dodging my whip, I cant hit anyone. Dead Hard. Pathetic defeat. 0K
- Result: I feel bad once. (MMR is lowered?)
Game 2: 'Ok lets try again'
- Survivors good at looping and dodging my whip, I hit people twice. Dead Harder. Pathetic defeat. 0K
- Result: I feel bad twice. (MMR lowered again?)
Game 3: 'F playing Nemesis, im going back to Wraith'
- Survivors have no idea where to run, barely get any gens done. I am steamrolling. Survivors cant loop to save themselves. Dead hard into wall, LOL. Merciless Killer 4K.
- Result: Wont play Nemesis again for a while. (MMR raised?)
I dread the day, Ill decide to play Blight or Nurse. no clue how to play them and giving how MMR operates currently it seems to not be suited for Killers who like to play differently, but does not have equal skill level with all Killers.
A Solution could be a defined MMR range that varies in range depending not only on specific Killers, but also the ease of which the general population of Killers play successfully. Thanks for reading.

This sounds like a very similar situation I had once. I was playing some Clown, got pitted against survivors who were really good (and my bottles were admittedly not up to snuff) and get demolished for a few games.
I then decide I'd like to feel good and get a win, so I switch to Nurse. I know Nurse can be a sensitive subject as far as killer balance goes, but the survivors I get put up against end up being complete potatoes. Say what you want about Nurse's counterplay, but I guarantee if I had gone against the previous groups of survivors that I had while playing Clown they would've lasted a lot longer. Two very quick downs in and they had effectively given up.
I don't want to feel bad for just wanting to get a win under my belt lol

basically me playing my demo, trickster, pig, sadako or dredge,. but when i swap to spirit i freaking streamroll cause the survivors im facing somehow are losing all their braincells. like i swear my nurse matches are way harder. this is super frustrating when i'm trying to play a killer that just came out or play a killer i haven't checked out in a while.
like you know when you're doing bad vs when the survivors you're facing are super competent and have all the best perks.

Yeah bro I know the feel. i only play ghostface and the matches are always inconsistent like that. There rarely middle ground and I don’t understand what happens like ??? One game u get the sweatiest and barely get any kills and the next u get potato survivors who crouch walk everywhere its a mess. When I play surv this happens as well

Glad I'm not the only one facing this issue. It may not be the most important change needed, but it would be nice.
