Killers are too OP
In my experience playing this game (Been playing for over 2 years now) the killers have all the advantages with their perks that reveal survivor auras and stopping gen progression. Killers also move quicker than survivors, lunge far, some can teleport or sprint, have too many throwables or no cool down time with throwables. Theres also too many hooks on every map, especially if you’re downsizing maps. The few things survivors have to “fight back” like flashlight, flashbang or traps make you feel like you have to jump through skill hoops or game mechanic hoops. I feel like this can be cured from heavily balancing killers.

Have you ever played killer more than a handful of matches?
"I have been playing for 2 years" says nothing about your skill and experience. You could have played the game once a month or every day for several hours.
I will just make it brief. I have been playing both sides for 6 years, almost every day with over 7.4k hrs combined and I can tell you, that killers are definitely not overpowered on a medium or higher skill level.

Yes I’ve also played killer a lot and I run no perks and usually kill 3 or 4 survivors every match. It’s too easy as killer tbh

And they have crutchborn that blocks flashlights and flashbangs so all you got now are unsafe rubbish pallets. Windows may as well not exist since you always get hit through them.

A trend I see with these posts is, nobody seems to say what killer they run, what builds, and what kinds of survivors they get.
Killer isn't that consistent across every playable killer, perk, addon and survivor variants. Can't tell me a Nurse with BBQ, Nurse's Calling, Lethal Persuer and Pain Res with Heavy Panting+Plaid Flannel addons is the same as Singularity running Rapid Brutality, Nemesis, Game Afoot and Furtive Chase with Hologram Generator+Foreign Plant Fibers as an example.
And that's before factoring in maps.2 -
I know the stats. The Devs want 60% kill rate btw.
We don't know how the stats were actually collected. Did they omit matches where survivors gave up on hook? Did they omit matches with afk players? Did they take into account that MMR might not have paired the players fairly? Did they take into account a sweaty player going against casuals or meme players? Did they take perks into account? A Blight with all slowdown and his best addons is more likely to win than a casual Blight, doing their daily.

Skill issue, You are bad, Get good.

What is "a lot"? Are you playing different killers or only one or two? If you continue getting 3 or 4k your MMR will rise and soon you will get more experienced survivors you play against. If you make longer breaks, your MMR drops a bit.
If you play killer regularly like me, you will notice that at one point it gets harder to win.
Btw: It is normal that at low MMR killers are stronger than average, because they are balanced for the majority of players who play somewhere in the middle. I am sorry to say it, but if killer is still so easy after 2 years of playing, you are not playing enough killer.

This doesn't sound like feedback from someone who has been playing for years. Complaining that killers move faster, as though that's unfair somehow. If killers weren't faster, the entire gameplay loop would be broken. It's necessary for most killers to ever land a hit.

Doesn't help killers are full of antiloop now. Every new killer that came out has ways to deal with pallets.
760hrs of dbd so far. i lose like 90% of my matches. Idk how this is balanced.

Which killers?
Because if you mean all of them not at all.
If you mean the top like, 3-4 sure.

Trapper shuts down loops, Billy can curve, Nurse exists.
Antiloop is not new.

i find it hard to believe you are facing some of most powerful antiloop killers in 90% of your matches :D
