how likely will these changes get reverted as what it tends to happen these past couple of patches

Was surprised they didn't revert it right next to the knight banner changes from the ptb

And now the changes are live and lots of people are hating it

    It takes time for bhvr to make good decision so maybe next patch if most people will complain, but thats hard to tell because we are talking here about one of most hated killers to go against on avarage.

    I think it depends on when BHVR checks every killer winrate and how actually it affects gameplay. I would give it, unless it's a major issue, two weeks or something. But it's only guessing. I doubt anyone actually knows and Clown needed buff, so in one way or another it will be buffed

    I mean he should be reverted to pre patch he was fine, he's perma bloodlust 3 or more with haste stacking, nowhere is safe on the map he gets free hits anywhere, I think i'd rather play against ghoul all day

    I will get downvoted for it but they will probbaly keep most of it and remove/nerf the addons.

    That's not how they work (thankfully).

    Next patch would be my guess.

    Just faced my first haste buffed clown. I'd love to know how they ever thought any of this was a good idea. If I'm being generous, the idea must have been to give him more map mobility, I guess. But then being better than average in the 1 V 1 does offset that weakness somewhat, so all I can do is shrug and wonder what they were thinking.

    He wasn't so bad to play against after they reduced the visual effects that made me queasy, but this new version of Clown has gone right back on my hate to play against list. I don't know if he's been buffed enough to really help him all that much against very skilled or gen focused Survivors (if that was the idea), but I do know he's an absolute nightmare for low MMR Survivors who already find him to be near impossible to loop. And of course they're all running at least a couple of haste perks as well. Easily the worst experience I've had since release Kaneki.

    I really wish I could hear any explanations from BHVR designers about why Clown was deemed in need of a rework at all.

    They won't get reverted.

    We'll get yellow bottle nerfs and they'll call it a day. Leaving Clown in a worse state before they decided to mess with his kit.
