Bamboozle is fun
It's really satisfying to watch red rank survivors reflexively try to vault their super overpowered loops only to realize that they've been outplayed. After which, they become paranoid, run from gens early and drop pallets like there's no tomorrow.
Really changes the game when lots of center buildings go from being the safest tiles in the game to death traps. Also, really fun to force Survivors to burn shack pallet early and have shack be a death trap the rest of the game for the ones who don't realize

The buff that lowered the Bamboozle noise notification was a really solid adjustment. I’m a fan of bamboozle on insta down killers and Huntress. Very solid perks on them.

Bamboozle is certainly not a bad perk, and the change to the noise does make it very nice against people who like to vault spam, the problem with it is it's a very map dependent perk, meaning if it's a map without a lot of windows, then it's kind of a wasted slot.
My only other concern with Bamboozle is it tends to teach killers bad habits, instead of mind-gaming windows or learning to beat t-walls and jungle gyms in a way that isn't perk dependent Bamboozle instead becomes a crutch. Also you can only block one window at a time, so loops with two windows can still be run very effectively.
Not trying to be a Debbie Downer, and as Steel-Eyed said the perk can be excellent on someone like Hillbilly who will use the blocked window to setup an instadown, but it's a perk that eventually as you continue to get better and better at dealing with window loops that you'll find yourself not needing it.

i play both at reds, Bamboozle is like Stridor on Spirit and to a lesser extent, Noed

Its ironic, because for the most part, Clown has a pretty solid lineup of perks. Adept Clown was really enjoyable to get, unlike the hell that adept killer achievements are to get these days

Makes you wonder if BHVR intentionally makes the killers with the best perks D tier intentionally.
Bubba - One of the worst killers, but has arguably one of the best killer perks in the game for grinding BP at the very least (BBQ and Chili), also has a key perk for slugging builds (Knockout), and the only perk that can remove items from survivors if struck (Franklin's Demise).
Clown - One of the worst killers, but has the best generator regression perk in the game (Pop Goes the Weasel), a very good vaulting denial perk (Bamboozle), and a mediocre terror radius healing reduction perk (Coulrophobia).
