Will you play clown?
I have gonna against one clown in my entire time playing DBD, and theres a reason for that. Clown is the worst killer in the game. Bubba has an insta down and Legion at least can run fast and get easy first hits. Clown has a bottle that can reveal people.....slows em down a little i think. Blurs their vision. Kind of
Removing ruin is going to make him even worse since he really has no way to apply pressure but.....that ######### mascot outfit! And its on the free rift track! Not only that but a reskin of his best outfit is also on the rift so the question is, are yall about to play some clown?

I swore I put that lol, I cant put them in now either. Oh well I can only assume everyone will play clown anyway because how could you not lol

I would play him only with the elephant cosmetic.

I really enjoy playing clown, his game mechanics are really fun. Hopefully the elephant cosmetics will encourage more people to pick him.
It's difficult to do well with him though so I can only realistically play at rank reset.

I already played him w/o.
So yes.

Depends were you live. I would recomend checking with your local representative or going online to see what dates and locations are available in your area.

I think its not a hot take to say hes the weakest killer across the board but hes even worse on console because 1. Idk how its possible to aim those bottles so quickly and accurately like ive seen PC players do, and 2. Its the only thing that gives me reduce frames on Xbox. For whatever reason ive heard frame drops are more common on PS4 on certain maps (particularly Hawkins) so I can only assume hes just as bad or worse there and then theres switch.....I can only assume hes flawless.

While everything that was said is true, I do like to play as the Clown. He his overall weak, yes, but is power is also very simple to use and understand, so it really doesn't require much time to master. He should get a buff, but I don't really don't know what could make him better without completely changing his power.

Even though he's considered weak, he is the killer I would have most fun playing, but I guess I am a clown main. I love that he laughs with every hit and down. And yes killers on the switch are the worst, there's like some kind of lag everytine you want to hit a survivor. It's very easy to avoid being hit as a survivor on the switch. (Very easy is an understatement too btw it's ridiculously easy compared to other platforms).

Clown has got to be the most toxic killer by design lol. Throwing bottles at you then laughing when he hits you, or you hit him, plus his mori. A porn VHS is deadass one of his add-ons. Oozing with personality, I love it
0 -
Yep, his laughing is especially satisfying when it's a toxic teabagger or that one hard to catch survivor.

Eww Clown

Survivor mains wanted ruin removed just so they would never have to play against a clown. Theres just too many

If he gets a Daily Ritual, sure.

The most savage diss you could give any killer
1 -
no. I hate the clown, playing vs him at least.

Freddy is a more powerful anti-loop killer, but he can also teleport, confuse survivors with lullaby, mind-game with fake teleportations and slow-down the game with addons but the poor Clown ... even throwing a bottle makes him lose bloodlust.
0 -
Sure, i play him every once in a while.
0 -
No, I wouldn’t play clown cause I find him weak and boring. Plus why would I play clown when Freddy is better then him.
that’s mine opinion though, but if he was Pennywise then all the time!
0 -
Or they just hate clown....I really like his mori but he’s just so boring on both sides for me at least.
0 -
What! i didn't know he loses bloodlust when throwing the bottle that's so stupid lol, im pretty sure he slows down when he throws the bottle too.
That is so #########, BUT people seem to hate playing against him too. I only played against him once but maybe if enough clowns start playing they'll give him a doctor style rework for being too annoying, probably nerf pop in the process but what can you do
0 -
Okay so it look almost two weeks, but I'm finally getting the hang of clown. Last night I had some real tough survivors and was able to sacrifice all of them with 3 gens left. Got 4 red metals too. Totally worth the bad games to get to this point. Yes, it took awhile, but oh well.
1 -
for dailies, yes.

The clown main rising is coming
0 -
LOL! The circus is coming to town.

I only play him for the daily.

@TunnelVision He's certainly not for everyone.
Who do you prefer?
0 -
I will to do yes-yes with the proboscis.

That outfit is so dumb, when I saw it was the contest winner I never expected it to be this good.
0 -
Don't get me wrong, i want to like him but he just needs a few tweaks in comparison to what is available currently. For me at the moment its either Ghost Face, Oni or Legion. That said, i have not really bothered with killer since its a massive headache compared to survivor.
0 -
@TunnelVision You're right - he needs a little work. Survivors can still run circles around him. All those killers you mentioned are extremely tough to go against and yes, lately killer has been nearly impossible to have a decent game with. I hope things get back to normal soon.
If I get my ass kicked when playing clown too many times, I just play with Freddy and dominate for awhile and I feel better. :)
0 -
well since killers are a joke, than we all might as well play clown and flop our pathetic noses around
0 -
Played him for a bit while leveling up Ghost Face to P3 because I didn't have any decent-ish perks on gf when I prestiged. Now he's just sitting there at level 40 because I needed Pop Goes The Weasel. Only play him for dailies because he has one of the easier ones.
0 -
He is still better than lots of killers...
Pig, doctor, spectre, etc.. and many others if u include novice players.
0 -
Mine has been sitting at level 50 for awhile. I started to level him up trying to get bbq 3 during the last bloodhunt because his thick ass has a dozen puddings, but the entity is not having it
