I'm confused
Besides the Box, isn't Pinhead just a worse clown?
His chains can be snapped quickly around walls, and require that you don't miss the survivor. Clown can toss a bottle at a long side of a loop without extreme worry about aiming. Clown can cause a slowdown for the survivor while still moving at his normal speed, while pinhead has to stop moving completely to use his ability.
I remember Clown's slowdown on his bottle throw animation - Pinhead's ability reminds me a bit of this but with 0 M/S movement speed throughout the use of his chain ability.
Thoughts?

agreed but clown doesn't have a mass of chains that mess the survivors up aftr a short period of time. Clown also cannot teleport to anyone trying to stop it

Oh, I don't know, it's too early to tell. What Pinhead has going for him that Clown doesn't is that he has a built-in slowdown with the box and can scout out buildings and different levels in a heartbeat. We'll see once we start figuring out his minute tricks. That is, when he's playable.

Hi Mr Confused, may I call you I'm?
A worse Clown in 1v1 chases. Better than Clown overall because of the chain hunt.

I feel like Clown's low risk low reward is more consistent than the high risk high reward of Pinhead. The big difference is Pinhead scales really well with Ruin which is more or less the best perk in the game.

Like everyone else has said, Pinhead is slightly less consistent in chase than Clown but makes up for it by having a secondary objective for survivors (the box) and the ability to teleport to start a new chase very quickly. I feel like the more obvious comparison is Freddy, not Clown.
