Like others are mentioning, I do not like to harass other players (beyond friendly ribbing of course), but to frank, I think it's you who are on something.

Hatsuharu and Murokumo are decent DDs, gets their K2s at reasonable levels ... and they do not require anything to get it

Ise is a very versatile ship and with her plane capacity and CV-like qualities, she allows folks to avoid CV restrictions that are becoming all too commonplace now. Note, I don’t even have Ise at K2 yet and I see this potential. Her only downside is the upgrade costs ...but then, what did you expect for what you get from her? Be honest now.

Naganami and Yuugumo both have some of the most powerful DD guns in the game and are also powerful destroyers in their own right. They are surpassed only by certain ships due to Dev-bias for those ships.

Unryuu is a good CV overall and her Kai form, despite requiring a BP, has some strong aircraft. In addition her stock aircraft loadout is CVCI-ready along with a Saiun to boot.

Kamoi is a fleet oiler and the fact of the matter is that they don’t belong in this game in the capacity that they must be used (seriously, why would you have a support ship anywhere near the front lines?), but like any Fleet Oiler, she does have her uses (regardless of how niche it is).

Satsuki and Fumizuki are Mutski-class DDs. No, their stats aren’t great, but at the same time, they run cheap (if resource costs are a thing for you) and, most importantly, they do not require a BP to get to K2.

Taigei is lackluster, I’ll agree and the fact that she needs a BP to get to Kai doesn’t help her case, especially given that what you get isn’t really worth the cost. However at K2, as a CVL she isn’t terrible (at least looking at her stats at any rate).

…and like others have said, not every ship in every class is going to be stat-mazing. Hell, you may as well put every DD that isn’t Yukikaze, Yuudachi, Asashio, Ayanami or a Ducky here too. To add more...

I don't know who is the most viable between Hayasui and Kamoi AO, but you're happy to have 2 AOs when you start using the Resupply Drum strat in Events, especially if there is 2 maps who need it.

And stats isn't everything. My Nagatsuki managed to kill Ne Flagships or BWS in Events, sometimes on maps that aren't that friendly with low-stats DDs, on Hard Mode no less. Mutsukis can also help you a lot with TP bars, especially when there are two of them with different shiplocks... And you can even clear 5-5 with 6 of them !! (OK, this last one is only for very hardcore japanese players).

Unryuu is good enough that I managed to clear Summer 17 E7 on Medium difficulty with her and Amagi. Their slots planes allow us to do nice things with them.

CVs in general are amazingly stupid and insane in this game ! You can equip the best planes on your best CV/Bs and yet the non-kai Gambier Bay or Ryuuhou can still be MVP (OK, this isn't common situation at all, but it happened to me several times).

You still get a Type 97 931 with a Ryuuhou Kai, which is easier to get than a Taiyou Kai overall
