Clown is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ horrible

[Depsurrel]

He is literally just garbage.
You can make pretty much every damn loop against the Clown, Dead Hard counters his entire ability, he has no map pressure, no way to slow down gen speeds. no way to ambush, and his entire ability is rendered completely pointless if a survivor sits at the pallet.
There is absolutely no redeeming factor to the Clown at all, he is hands down one of the worst killers in the game. His power does absolutely nothing and it even *hinders* him due to the fact that throwing a bottle slows him down. He is so bad and it is not even funny.
There is absolutely no way anyone can actually convince Clown is anything but literal trash.

Who needs to be strong when you can just laugh like a maniac and eat fingers everyday?

Playing clown is not trying to win,it's trying to enjoy yourself with other's suffering. Why do you think he laughs in the first place? Clown dont care about no sacrifices,he cares about tunneling and proxy camping one survivor with instadowns just for the hell of it because chances are someone will try to rescue and get absolutely pwned by this big pile o' lard

Arguably the Clown is better at a lot of loops than Huntress since Huntress got a bunch of (unnecessary) nerfs.

Thanks babe
Would've linked the other Clown video but

Clown is higher tier than a lot of killers. So, OP are you wanting him to have more instant down bottles?

He is decent .
If you don’t know how to play him, please make a research on steam forum, watch guide and videos or ask for help in kyf .

Exactly how is Clown good?
Please explain what he can do that can't be easily countered and completely shut down his entire power.

He is one of the more solid killers of dbd. Like all killers except nurse and HB, he needs a proper build and some addons to do his task right.
- My build : RUIN, BBQ&C, Enduring and Bamboozle.
- My preferred addons: Ether 10/15 and Flask of Bleach (Once a survivor is hit, he will be slowed to death), Flask of Bleach and Tattoo's Middle Finger (Survivor will slow a lot and you have 6 seconds wallhack which added to blurry effect will give you a high boost on mindgames at structures).
The idea is to throw a bottle and enter a structure (jungle gym window+window, junglegym window+pallet, killer's shack, etc) throught the window. Survivor will have to leave the structure or get a hit. if he's luck he won't but pallet will be thrown, disabling a powerful structure in less than 8 seconds instead of 40.
Same with loops at pallets; you throw a bottle on the other side of the loop not on the pallet. Survivor will leave or if he wants to loop, receive a hit and throw the pallet. 6 seconds is better than being pallet looped for 20.
This guy played right is a nightmare to survivor and will clean the map of pallets in no time. And we all know what happens when survivors don't have a pallet every 10 meters...

You're telling us he's a "nightmare" with green and purple addons. Even legion is good at that point.

It's a recommendation not and obligation. Besides, addons were designed to be used. All you need with clown are green ones which are cheap and easy to get. Don't see the problem here.

[Midnight Green Hero]

I've always thought the Clown should inflict "madness" like the Doctor. Instead of madness it would be asthma caused by the gas and at level 3 you'd have to stop and take deep breaths to go back to level 2 otherwise you'll cough uncontrollably.

[Brad_Redfield]

Yep, pretty much mainly because when he has to reload, he wastes a lot of time allowing the survivor to run very far away unless he has addons to reload faster but this means he won't be using green/purple addons to make longer the intoxication or to make the gas cover a wider area for exaple which might lead him to be the worst killer
