Please do something about Wesker
This event has literally just been constant Wesker and I literally do not want to play anymore

I am sorry, I am part of the problem.
Well he is one of the best designed Killers in the game imo, you have power that is very fun to use (smashing and trowing Survivors on stuff is just niceeeee) and also powerfull, he has bit of everything (info, slowdown, chase, movement) but he also takes some skill to use well and there is counterplay againts him too. You can juke him, try to bait his dash, etc.
I think the only solution for this is as time goes is to release more well designed killers and then you will see overall less of the same. Buffing / reworking weak killers would also help.

My issue with Wesker isn't due to his design or his balance, overall he's a great killer for all the reasons you've just listed.
My issue is that it's Wesker after Wesker after Wesker and it is so deflating

Wesker is not the problem, he should be the norm, every killer should be as fun to play as him.

as much as i like wesker's design, he also has the one of the best tunneling abilities in the game and since basically everyone plays him and almost every single one is an ######### for some reason, it's pretty annoying to play against him all the time

The issue with Wesker tbh is that he is really easy to abuse around hooks. Well, Wesker and Huntress specifically. They have been quite over-represented during the event so far. And all of them has been scummy. I get they are fun to play, but from a survivor perspective, they are NOT fun to face.

Tell BHVR to make killers that are actually fun to play

So BHVR needs to do more QoL buffs to specific killers, so they are more enjoyable to play.
Wesker is strong and fun killer, there is not many of those.

Yeah i think it would be fair for them to do something about it. As much as i enjoy playing him, variety is important. If they nerfed all those perks in 6.1.0 for the sake of variety then it wouldn't be unusual for them to do the same thing to a killer.
I just wish more killers felt fun to play. Last three are horrible to play as. Singularity constantly gets his power denied, skull merchant is somehow strong but very frustrating to play as as well as against and knight is very inconsistent and unintuitive. Wesker might have such a high pickrate because he is surrounded by such unappealing killers to play as in comparison.
It will soon be 1st anniversary of wesker and 2nd of pinhead so hopefully that means we get another popular killer to play as to increase variety.

I would be glad to see more Wesker as I don't feel like "oh a Blight... Well gg" when seeing him.
I know when he wins it is not because of op addons or other stupid #########, but because he was better.
You forget PyH.
And why do people always say Wesker is such a tunneler? I think it is more of a problem when to use the spray. Just don't use it next to him and wait until he is occupied. Do not heal under hooks. No problem with that.
######### players=/=badly designed character. There are also camping Bubbas, Hags or Huntresses. That does not make them bad.
Nerfing killers for variety is not the answer to that problem. You know back in the day the only 3 killers you saw once you hit red ranks were Nurse, Billy and Spirit. The variety was "further down the ranks". Why? These 3 killers were insane and therefore the top. Why? There was almost no counterplay against a good nurse, only mediocre counterplay against insta saw Billy and no counterplay against Spirit. These killers have been nerfed to have reasonable counterplay. Wesker never Was at that point. He has always had lots of counterplay. He is just very popular because he is actually fun.
No need to nerf him because he is fun. (For some reason I see more Huntresses than Weskers. Should Huntress be nerfed then? Obviously not.)
And you must not forget that he was killswitched for 10 days. Of course he will be played a ton.
And him being the last well designed killer for a while is probably also a big factor.
For me he became my new main after I did not really have one for about a year as they slowly nerfed Freddy into the ground. His power was never the most interesting but I liked him. Then he just became meh and nothing really appealed to me to play a lot. Spirit was still op then, so I felt bad using her and PyH was OK but very difficult to get good with him. And Pig was OK but never strong enough to actually have a lot of fun.
