I'm just curious. No other reason... probably.

    bad killer, add-on dependent as #########, and boring to face as survivor (and also horrible to play as killer)

    I love clown but ya he needs some changes badly. He should not still be in this state when Freddy's dream snares exist in the game.

    Just an M1 killer with an elephant outfit

    I wish he was better.

    Also, almost every Clown I've went against was either a camper or a troll. Probably because people regret choosing him after 1 gen gets done, so they try to ruin the game for everyone.

    It feels like i'm the only person who thinks he's fine as he is, when it comes to these debates.

    You can do so many unique mindgames with Clown since he is very audible heavy with everything he does. Plus his bottles aren't just for slowdowns, they work better than Freddy's Snares at shepperding survivors and they act as a very good blur/mist effect to mask mindgaming movement.

    Not a lot of Clowns use these tools to proper effect in my opinion. Did you guys know vaults are impossible to loop vs a great Clown? Since you cannot move for perfectly timed and placed bottle throws, mixed with the audio mindgames, he will mess your life up. And dropping pallets early against him doesn't waste as much time as you think, especially if the killer player knows how to juggle and pressure properly, all it does is make that area a deadzone later when you need it desperately once you know how devastating he's playing.
