Clown is the worst killer and needs buffs

He struggles with pressure but he's still far better in chases than the bottom half of the roster.Claudette_Baguette said:@The_Crusader said:

Lmao is this a joke? Have we been jebaited! I can't believe what I read! 😂😂😂 Clown weak??? Dude he's in the same category as Huntress, Spirit, Hag & Myers... He's a anti loop killer. You must be complete garbage with him or you just do not know how to use him at all.
Clown can't stop loops or has an ability that really helps you catch people. People can still use millions of pallets against clown if they just don't get too greedy. He can't stop that like spirit, hag or huntress for example.
They drop pallets early against Clown which saves a lot of time.
Plus if you use the extra hindered penalty or the one that makes toxin effects last moderately longer than you can hit them befote they get to the next pallet.
Doesn't matter. Survivors can still waste enormous amounts of time because of the great amount of pallets on a map. Clown can't down survivors quickly enough to put out enough pressure. He doesn't have a mobility tool either.

I'd say Nurse, Billy, Spirit, Hag and Huntress are stronger.
But Leatherface, Pig, Freddy, Trapper, Wraith, Legion and Doctor all suffer far worse from what you describe than Clown does.0 -
I play quite a lot of Clown, and I don't find him underpowered at all, actually, if I want to play a quick and easy game, I would pick Clown because if you just learn to nail the bottles, he could be good with certain addons. Of course, he's not the best killer, but he's definitely not the worst and doesn't need a buff, and if he does, only a slight buff or just an adjustment if anything.

As with any killer, unless you play that specific one often enough it can be challenging to find out the quirks of their power and use it to its full potential. Maybe you already have a lot of time on clown, but in my experience it just takes some time . . or a lot of time to get a killer down well.

Clown is my favourite killer. Last night I had a really delicious game: I was Clown (Whispers/BBQ+C/Bitter Murmur/Overcharge) in the meat factory. Hooked only once or twice. Got down to 1 gen remaining. Had some cocky survivors knocking down pallets and running in and out of lockers. Started patrolling the last 3 gens. Anyway: they never got that last gen! All hooked. Merciless Kill. What a treat.1

Bad? probably.
Worst? LOOL.1 -

Worst? LOOL.Who is worse then? Freddy is actually decent if you play him well and super deadly once he kills someone. Pig got buffed a lot and her trap boxes actually are far away from each other and can waste a lot more than before. Leatherface still has a oneshot and can destroy pallets fast.
Who is really worse than clown? His bottles don't do much. Just a short -15% slow which is nothing. Play him yourself or watch streamers play him. Most people agree that he is trash and he needs to be better.

Are you sure about what you say? there is a reason if the whole community has been requesting freddy rework for about 1 year while few complain about the clown.
Poor freddy deserves some love.
DARN

There are some unintentionally funny comments on here:
'Clown is laughable' - Breaking news - man laughs at clown.
'He is well rounded' - so he likes a pie dont be mean to poor Kenneth...
'He is like a trapper with no traps'. Indeed. Also like a wraith that cant turn invisible and a nurse who cant teleport.

Rework the clown: Make him 110% or even 105% speed because he is fat but buff his bottles to 40% and make them last 3 seconds by default. So he is more reliant on his bottles but when he hits survivors its a better pay off.You don't solve his biggest issue (which is no map pressure) by reducing his speed..

"Worst killer" is a blanket statement. For instance, Freddy has nothing to help in the chase. He just tracks well. The clown at least has something that aids in the chase.

Clown is fast and a counter to looping. It’s up to YOU to make the right decisions, and block the correct pallets. If you don’t, do remember, he has addons that make him considerably stronger.0

He's one of my favorite killers and probably one of the least add on reliant killers. I think one issue with him is that his add-ons don't bring that op factor especially his iridescent, if it was changed to just injure survivors on hit rather than make them exposed it would be better. I think if they fixed the bottle physics and some of his visual glitches he would be way stronger.
