Is Redhead's Pinky Finger add-on OP?
Just watched OhTofu's video showcasing how strong this add-on can be, and...it kinda is really strong. I still cant decide if it is actually too strong, or the survivors he versed are just potatoes, but this add-on seems a bit too strong in some scenarios. Like being outpositioned. Leatherface punished the survivors who are outpositioned too, but at least he has to charge up his chainsaw, being slower than a survivor during that time. Clown can instantly expose you while being a 115% with this add-on. Idk, maybe I'm wrong, but something doesn't feel right about this add-on.

Everything can look really strong if someone decently good uses it.
I think its fine since it only exposes and the clown is overall not the best killer.
EDIT: Also its not that easy to hit that bottles.

To be fair, you basically gotta be point blank at a survivor in order to make it work.

Lol no? The exposed effect doesn’t last long and the bottles can be hard to hit. You need to get close to get the down, which gives survivors time to put a pallet down. Also you need to reload if you miss your shots.
Basically Clown gets a hard to hit instadown and thats it.....hows that any different to a Hillbilly who once he gets close has an instadown? Except Billy can sprint across the map too and never has to reload.

I learned how to get direct hits on my first game. Its not as hard as it seems. The add-on is fine tho.

Fair. I won't deny it's a very strong addon but considering it requires a direct hit and you gotta be close, it's not like it makes you exposed if the gas simply touches you

Combine Pinky Finger w/ feather add-ons to streamline the survivor with bottles if you're having trouble making direct hits, or to increase the odds of direct tosses in general.
If you are more than capable landing direct throws, apply Ether Vol add-ons to lengthen the intoxicated effect, therefore extending the exposed effect.

Oh yeah, that would be stupid broken if it was just the gas to expose survivors. Glad it's not a thing with how gas physics work when throwing bottles on ceilings and walls.

Can confirm this add-on is bullshit. Especially paired with bleach or other clown add-ons that can prolong the effects. So stupid. Clown runs up right behind you, throws bottle, insta down. No risk, no drawback.

Everyone hates on Iridescent Head but Redhead's Pinky Finger seems to be alright according to most people. But the addons are basically the same, hatchets are even a lot harder to use than bottles.

The fact its clown is the drawback.

If it was on any other killer, then maybe. But because it's on Clown, it is balanced.

On console it’s almost impossible to hit those perfect bottles. If you managed to hit one you deserved it. Keep in mind the exposed status effect does not last long.

It's pretty strong, but it's countered out by the fact that you're playing Clown.

There is a risk and a drawback. Clown needs to get close first. This means conservatively using bottles during the chase to get close in the first place AND still have bottles left in order to get effective use out of it.
Survivor stealth, and a 32m head start means there is plenty of opportunity for survivors to avoid being insta downed. It’s the survivors that don’t take Clown seriously that suffer from RHPF.
