How to deal with new clown?

Hello, I have almost 800 hours playing survivor only, I really dont have any major trouble against killers. Whenever i looped clowns i tried to mantain my distance and use big loops. But this new clown is really overwhelming, like literally no clown ive faced is using the speed bottle, they are getting the 2x bottle add-on and spamming the slow bottle. I cant literally go to any loop without getting all the whole loop filled with bottles, and if I try to avoid any loop i just get slowed to death anyways. Should I just go full claudette and avoid any kind of chase? Im kinda aggressive and i find hiding a lil bit boring. Anyways, just wanted to know if theres any tips or if theres anything i should change.

    i am killer main, and also clown main, ( before the buff) to be fair, i feel he is the strongest killer to end chases the fastest ( strongest M1 killer) ( when it comes to 1v1 a survivor and get him down)

    now after the buff, ( which didnt give clown what he needs which is map pressure, they just made him stronger in 1v1s)

    tbh , i feel bad for survivors

    New Clown,especially players that are able to use the new bottles,is incredibly hard to loop.

    You either have to try dropping pallets earlier,make him waste his bottles by pretending to use a certain loop and continue to run(using LOS breakers helps with that) and moving around LOS blockers in a way that makes using his bottles pretty hard is important aswell (similiar to other ranged killers)

    Other than that there's not much you can do against him

    Run, cut chases. Looping against a good clown is a bad idea

    Against the new Clown you do the exactly same thing as for the old Clown, just pre-drop pallets.
