more jiggle physics

We don't know yet, all we've seen from the teaser video is that his clouded gas changes colour, and judging from the sound cue, it sounds like you can change it to whatever colour you want, but it seems like those colours each have a specific effect.

Buffing him it seems, no one knows just yet.

From the leaks we've gotten and with some theorizing, this is what we can pretty safely assume:
The Clown is going to have 2 different bottles: The Afterpiece Tonic and The Afterpiece Antidote. Throwing a bottle of The Afterpiece Tonic will do it's normal effect, but the gas will gradually, piece by piece, expand until it reaches max area. The Afterpiece Antidote can then be thrown at the gas from The Afterpiece Tonic, which will combine the two into a brand new effect after a short duration.
Clown is also, from the looks of it, will have a passive reload, since his current reload button will probably be used to switch bottle types.
As for what The Afterpiece Antidote does on it's own or what it does when combined with The Afterpiece Tonic, we have no idea, only complete guesswork.
With the new way the gas expands, we have no idea how it will affect the physics of the gas when thrown at a higher structure.
They are also (most likely) revamping his addons.

Does he actually need a buff? personally i think its enough with his actual bottles, they slow you down and with that is a ez hit, but idk what you think?

I suspect all of that is probably correct. I'm hoping one of the gasses causing exhaustion or he gets to keep solvent jug.

Well, not to be rude but he is literally the worst killer in the game. All you do is pre-throw pallets that are semi-safe and you have just completely countered him. He has no lethality at bases like billy or huntress, or anyone else for that matter. Any decent killer can wreck low-rank potato survivors but will win very few times at the higher ranks. Unless you use the meta ruin + undying, but he is still the worst killer in a game.

He already has an addon for it. Besides, I never use it because Exhaustion debuff is pretty niche. It pretty much only counters Dead Hard (which 50% of tryhard survivors use), Lithe (no one except babies use), and Balanced Landing (no one except rank 20 Neas use). Sprint Burst is the only truly threatening Exhaustion perk, and it does nothing against good players who use it.

Yeah at this point I hope he doesn't become a pain in the ass to play, I want him to be fun

BL is pretty bad when they all bring it after using a Haddonfield offering.

Survivors hit by the Clown's Belly are immediately put into the dying state.

He's doing pretty good now in killrate so I can't see them buffing him. But will be fun to see what they will change.

Never said that. There are exceptions to pretty much anything. It's just that most good players use Dead Hard, most REALLY good players use Sprint Burst, and the rest are left in the dust

A passive reload would be interesting. Having his bottle recharge similar to how Blight's or Nurse's ability automatically recharges would help Clown quite a bit.
