    Idk what the devs had in mind...maybe end chases a little faster and detect survivors a little easier? He's basically a much much worse doc. He needs a mobility option.

    I just played a game as clown.

    First chase lasted 70 seconds because I found a decent survivor and the map was full of pallets. He dropped 3 pallets.

    I hook him. 3 gens done. 2 gens left.

    I found another survivor who was decent too and the chase lasted around 40-50 seconds.

    1 gen left.

    Then I left my monitor and went to eat some cookies LOL.

    Map offerings or moris, surveillance + discordance. That works for me at high ranks and I'm actually surprised after the nerf. You might want to use the exhaustion add on too.

    Clown is one I struggle with a lot. I've seen some really good Clown players who managed to keep SWF teams off balance and secure 4k matches, but those are rare. I know I excel at pressure with Trapper, Doc, Pig, Hag, Shape, Nightmare and Legion ( pure map pressure). That said, I'm learning Huntress, and Spirit, while sucking with Clown and Oni. I just don't like how Oni feels and don't play the other killers at all.
