clown changes (buff, nerf, or a side grade?)

In my opinion clown just got a straight up nerf if you played from his current state with the nerf to purple bottles

and with the direction it's going, spamming yellow bottles now with haste perks and addons might be miserable to go against and a bit brainless with how quick the activation starts

What do you think, was his change a buff, nerf or a side grade

    Honestly it's the biggest and most unneeded nerf on a Killer we never asked for. There removing his iconic power by nerfing it.

    Plus with how strong his Haste bottles are in the PTB it will only be like a week before there also nerfed and soon he will be unplayable all together. All the changes needs to reverted

    Nerf.

    His ability to deny fast vaults is neutered.

    A sidegrade.

    They want him to stop spamming purple bottles, but he'll end up just spamming yellow ones.

    Plus things like Cigar Box are getting nerfed for no real reason.

    They just really just dumbed him down Clowns will just spam yellow bottles at his feet and run haste builds to be 25% faster permanently

    It's crazy that they're altering killers like Clown, yet leave killers like Blight and Ghoul the way they are. Blight is flat-out overpowered, yet they completely ignore it and allow him to continue with 1000+ victories. Ghoul is unhealthy, yet left as it is.

    Hey, it's false to claim that they ignore them! They give them a slap on the wrist once every 4 years that they immediately compensate by giving them new stupid addons or buffing already-problematic ones (Cherry Blossom, Nurse's increased lunge, new Blight iris, Nurse triple blinks etc).
