PTB and "_The Clown_"

First and foremost, thanks for releasing the PTB! It's a great idea to let the masses test your product so you can fine tune it before the actual release. Without further adieu here is what I think.

After playing 5 matches with The Clown over the last couple days, (taking time to really enjoy his gameplay and figure out an effective playstyle) I wanted to post my thoughts and maybe see if we can improve the next Chapter somewhat.

Yesterday my 3 games were 2k, 4k, 2k. I was using green add-ons. Today my games were 0k, 0k. I was using a mix of ultra rare and green add-ons. People are adapting to this killer already (which was going to happen).

First things first. Move Speed. Right off the bat I noticed this killer was slower than most. I understand that it fits his aesthetic to be slower in general, however some things need to be taken in consideration when making a slower killer.
-Patrolling
---When patrolling, if a killer has a slow Move Speed, they need something that will help them either get from point A to point B, or be strong enough to make their presence count when lumbering from area to area. Being that The Clown has no method of patrolling effectively other than walking, I would expect that his power would make up for that. It Doesn't.
-Power
---Limited to 4 uses prior to a reload that takes about 5 seconds AND slows you even more than he already crawls I was hoping for something that, upon landing an actual hit with his power, would be game changing in The Chase. The minute slow of 10-15% for 1.5 seconds is not enough to cripple survivors, and even with some add-ons you are required to use multiple bottles to make the effect worthwhile. If you can't manage to down the survivor within those 4(5) uses, it turns into a loopfest, and you will most likely lose.
-Perks
---I can't argue that his perks aren't useful to some degree, however that can be said of many other killer perks, so I can't use them in this discussion. I will stick to his CORE weaknesses.

So overall, he seems like a quirky killer, somewhat out of place with his power and, although it looked good on paper, in actual use he's overall pretty weak. He's fun to play, but if I can't kill people, what's the appeal? Nobody will want to play The Clown unless he is buffed, and will go to other, more powerful slow-moving killers. (Huntress, Nurse, Hag)

My idea's for buffs would either be...
A. increase the intoxication effect from his power from 1.5 - 4 seconds. The reason is that because the slow is as weak as it is, touching the gas needs to be more than a minor inconvenience and more of an "I don't wanna touch that S***" kinda thing.
or B. Keep the 1.5 second intoxication effect but have the blind make the screen white (flashlight blind anyone?) and increase the slow to 50%+.

The power needs to be meaningful if it takes forever to actually catch people. I just don't see him being viable if his power is as weak as it is. It doesn't do damage nor is it a game changer.

Let me know how you feel about The Clown and if these changes would be good! Thanks for reading!
